s.bilious spells" are the attendants OF moth
patches induced by the same arrangement Of
the system
never had sick headache more than twice
In my life, Fundamentally As il were, Just
enough TO know what it was like, and It ap
pears 10 me the most useless way Of spending
ones time that can be mentioned There il
only a choice between 1t and the idsa at &
witty friend, who found certain famous hot
springs 80 dreary that be wrote he had do
cided to have some teeth pulled out to pas
away the time. The way some women 60
through life, taking to bed every third week
with season OF sick headache, Is one Of the
mysteries Of nature, and it makes things &c
pleasant for their families.
One would prefer to go through the mate
ria medica rather than provide such enter
tainment for ones friendA At the first lan
guild warning Of such ''spelr' vigorous &C
ton should be taken with warm lemonade
a dose Of salts in hot water and hot footbath
10 start the skin TO its duties, aided by no,
bath with hot water and soft soap A good
old regulation pill to follow is made from
extract Of butternut, thirty grains; powdered
jalap, twenty grains; CASTLE soap, ten grains.
Make fifteen pills Of this and take three o.
four as dosa
Butternut Is one Of the safest purgatives
known, and was much used by army physi
clans in the late war and the revolution.
The charcoal and pepsin lozenges taken daily
will keep the digestion good, il other habit,
are correct. Treat the moth patches by
rubbing at night with elderdower ointment
which has twenty grains sulphate Of zinc
added to the ounce. Do not let the oint'
ment touch the healthy skin In the morn
ing wash it of with CASTLE soap and warm
water, and battle the spot six times o day
with the juice Of large lemon in half a tea
cup OF soft water boiled There are lotiom
to prevent the return Of the discolorations
which are commended by the faculty, but II
is really cruel to delude people with sucl
recipes as some which friend sends from q
family paper.-Shirley Dare.
