Tho Danger of Administering Medicines
 Without Medical Advice.
 There are really few remedies that it is safe to administer without skilled advice, says Harper's Bazar, and those are the simplest, and might all be included in list comprising only hot water, castor oil and very little tincture of rhubarb. When child has been ind.lging in illicit food, swallowing cherry stones, or eating unripe raspberries whose hard seeds lodge in the little sack that seems to be in the bowels for the express purpose of making trouble, the poor mothers first idea is to give it at once @ relieving and discharging potion; and she puts the child under immediate sentence of death in doing so, the physic having an in1ammatory influence which is the very thing to be avoided. And, on the other hand, when the child gives evidence of 8 diarrhoeal disorder of the bowels, the poor mother flies to her medicine closet. takes down the phial of chalk mixture, and admires herself for stopping the immediate symptoms, not knowing that the fever and distress and worse ensuing symptoms are due to the effect of the chalk mixture, which prevents the system from reliev- ing itself, and that she should have given instead an unloading and clear ing dose of castor-oil. That she is de- tered from giving the oil by the difficulty OA uoA1uB u Culu SWd1lO" Guts nauScOuS druaght is not to be allowed in her excuse; for the child need not know what is given, and there are many ways of making it tasteless besides that of administering it in capsules for, when given, beaten up with the white of an egg, as If for what is called "egg-nog," ," with some sugar and a dash of lemon juice added, or Q drop of essence of peppermint, the child will think 1t is having some unusual indulgence granted because it does not feel we'll, remembering to it's advantage the old nursery lines:
 ''Oh yes, not well you're very sick.
