this editor was told Of discovery
that had been made which may prove
q boon to sufferers from lung or brod-
chial troubles This lady having
heard that there was peculiar virtue
in pillow made from pine STRAW, and
having none OF the material at hand,
made one from soft pine shavinRs,
and had tho pleasure of noting inn
mediate benefit. Soon all the men,
bers Of the household had pine shaw
ing pillows, and it was noticed that
all coughs, Rsthmatic or bronchial
troubles abated at once after sleeping
a few nights on these pillows. An
invalid suffering with lung trouble
derived much benefit from sleeping
upon mattress made from pine shaw
ings. The material is cheap, and the
