TO MAKE A MUSTARD PLASTER.

"Any body can make mustard plsst-
err" you say. beg your pardon, they
cannot. Not one person In hundred
can, and yet they are used In every fam
ily. Even physicians prescribe their APP
pilcatiOn, hut seldom give directions rs
to how they should be made, for the
simple reason that they, rs a rule, do
not know. The ordinary way Ia to mix
the mustard with " alter and thlcken with
-four. A plaster made In this manner Is
not lit for a person to use. Before II
has half done Its work 1t blisters the
patient aud leaves a painful spot with
out accomplishing what 1t il Intended to.
A mustard plaster should never make n
blister. II you want blister, there are
other plasters for that purpose. Use no
water whatever, but mix the mustard
with the white of an egg. This will
make a plaster that Will draw, but Will
produce no blister, no matter how ten
der the skin, or how long 1t Is left on.
II you will try this you will find IL your
experience as well rs 1t has been mine.
An English lady declares that mustard
plaster on the elbow will relieve neural
gia In the face, and one on the back of
the neck will relieve neuralgia In the
head and that many persons have been
cured by this simple process.

WAsHINGTON,-L House Special
Aug. 3l-After very little and a
very unimpOrtant routine morn
ing business had been transacted,
House resumed consideration of
the rules reported by chairman
Catchings.
Hooker (Miss) attacked the
proposition in the rules, which
confers upon the committee on
rules jurisdiction over all proposed
action, touching any order of bust
ness. He contended that such a
course would mean the surrender
of the powers of government to a
committee of the House consisting
of ) men.
