If You Burn Yourself.

The pain from slight burns is great
An excellent application is lhick
paste of common baking soda moist
ened with water, spread on piece of
linen or cotton, aud bound on the part,
writes Elizabeth Robinson Scovil in an
article on what to do in Emergencies"
in the March Ladies home Journal.
This can be kept wet by squeezing
water on it from sponge or cloth I'M
til the smarting is soothed.
A thick coating of starch can be used
instead of the ida. or wheat flour if
nothing better can be had, but neither
should be applied if the skin is broken.
In this case it is better to use vaseline,
olive or linseed oil. The doctor will
apply some preparation tanning
carbolic scid.
If the air can be- effectually excluded
from burn the p lin is relieved.
Blisters should be pricked and the
fluid absorbed with soft cloth before
dressing.
If the clothing adberts t. the skin the
loose part should be cut awav and the
patches of material soaked off with oil
or warm water.
When the injury is extensive the
sufferer will be Frustrated and may die
from the shock Heat should be APP
piled to the extremities and over the
heart, and hot drinks given until the
doctor comes
La burns from strong acid the part
should be covered with dry baking
soda or lime, as the alSali will nutralize
the acid No waller should be used,
but cosmoline or oil applied after the
alkali has been brushed off
When the burn has been caused by
an alkali an acid must be used. A
person recovering from the effects OF 8
burn requires very nouristing food.

In old age lnfrmities and weakness hasten to close the gap between us and the grave. Happily scientific research and pharmacal skill have allied them selves in furnishing us a reliable means of ameliorating the ailments incident to declining years, and of renewing waning physical energy. Its name IS Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, widely comprehen- sIve remedy in disease, and an inestima- ble blessing to the elderly, the feeble and the convalescent. Rheumatic ailments, trouble with the kidneys and lumbago are among the more common ailments of the aged. These are effectually coun- teracted by the Bitters. which is like wise prevention and curative of mala- rial complaints. dyspepsia, constipation and biliousness. It is highly promotive of appetite, sleep and the acquisition of vigor.
