Sweet Oil for Young Children.

The value of sweet oil used in rubbing is
not generally appreciated. When little
child has taken cold and seems restless
from the effects, nothing is more soothing
than sweet oil rubbed into the skin, before
warm fire, with a gentle pressure of the
hand. The oil should be rubbed on the
soles Of the feet, down the back and neck
and around the hips, and the little one
should be carefully shielded from any draft
whlle TINS is done. Such Il rubbing will
take the place of the daily bath at time
when the child is suffering from cold, and
it is not advisable to expose it any more
than Is necessary.
If the little one has croupy cough and
shows signs Of hoarseness, a thick flannel
saturated with sweet oil and sprinkled
with camphor and heated as hot as the
child can bear it, should be laid over the
chest, high enough to extend around the
throat. 1t should be covered with another
flannel or layer of cotton batting TO re.
tain the heat. The heated flannel should
be changed for another as soon Us it cools.
BY this method the cold of little child
may often be broken up and the most seri.
GUS disease averted.
The lungs and breathing tubes of little
baby are peculiarly delicate, and any child
during infancy is very liable to contract
serious diseases Of the lungs from very
slight cause The little one is also cured
by very simple remedies, and this layer Of
hot oil acts as powerfully us IA mustard
plaster on grown up person. A child
that has been suffering seriously with
cold one day, after careful treatment of
this sort will often wake up the day after
with hardly a suspicion Of illness. There
is no better laxative than sweet oil for
young child.-New York Tribune.

Colors Of Sapphlres.

Sapphires have Of late years become
fashionable gems. The blue Of the
sapphire is very seldom pure or spread
over the whole substance Of the stone.
Sometimes it is mixed with black, which
gives it an inky appearance, sometimes
with red. which, although imperceptible
by daylight, yet by artificial light gives
1t an amethystine appearance. Two
sapphires which by daylight may appear
Of the same hue often differ extremely
in color at night. II the stone be held

beneath the surface Of very clear water.
the parts Of the stone colored and un-
colored will be distinctly apparent. This
remark applies TO all other gems.-Cin-
