A Remedy for Bee Stings.

A great many, especially young
mothers, are at loss what to do when
a child gets stung by bee or hornet.
Soda moistened with water and applied
directly to the bee sting will allay the
pain almost Immediately and counter
act the poison. But when one is away
off in the woods or in a field, it is well
enough to bear in mind other remedies
that are just as efficient and near at
hand. Three different varieties of veg
citation of any kind, gathered as quick
ly as possible, the leaves bruised and
rubbed on the wound, will have the
same effect as the soda. If in a barren
spot away from vegetation, take some
earth of any kind, moisten it SO it will
adhere to the surface, and lay it on,
and the effect will be like magic One
day a neighbor's ferret was running
along the fence next the highway, and
nosing about under the rails, when it
got badly stung on the nose and ears
by humble bees. As soon as it had
fought the bees away it ran immediate
ly to q mud puddle in the road and COW
cred it's head and ears with mud. In a
short time it seemed to be at ease and
suffering no Inconvenience from the
sting. A bee sting should be treated as
soon Is possible or the remedies will
prove ineffectual.-Mrs. John Gaillard,
in Ohio Farmer.
