THE VALUE OF LEMoNs.-A bilious
attack may be overcome by taking
the Juice ofone or two lemons in a goblet
of water before retiring and in the
morning before rising. Where taken
on an empty stomach the lemon has an
opportunity to work on the system.
Continue the use of them for several
weeks. Lemons are an excellent
remedy for pulmonary diseases. When
used for lung troubles from six to nine
day should be used. More juice is
obtained from lemons by boiling them,
Put the lemons in cold water and
bring slowly to a boil. Boil slowly
until they begin to soften; remove
from the water and when cold enough
to handle squeeze until all the juice is
extracted, strain and add enough loaf
or crushed sugar to make it palatable,
being careful not to make it too sweet
Add about twice as much water as
there is juice. This preparation may
be made every morning, or enough may
be prepared one day to last three OF
four days, but it must be kept in cold
place.
TO REMOVE PAINT FROM CLOTH
ING.-You can remove paint from
clothing better with chloroform than by
any other means, but benzine will also
do. The chloroform is not inflammable
and may be used at night, benzine
should only be employed during day
light and away from any fire or open
light, as it is extremely dangerous when
exposed to flame. Soak the spot
through the fabric and rub gently over
a piece of blotting paper or white
cloth, using white fabric as the rub
ber. Turpentine will take paint out
but it is apt to spread around the
edge of the stain, which chloroform
does not do. Use plenty of the liquid
and dry in the sun.-New York World
BLEACHING CELERY.-Mr. John
Lock, of this country, last fall had a
piece of celery ready to be bleached
Not having sufficient boards he arran,
ged stakes in the form ofan x, set them
over the celery rows, connect them
with poles, and leaned corn fodder
against the poles. The plan was com
pletely successful, the celery being
bleached to the tips.-George B. Borck
Ottawa Co., Michigan.
Hot LEMONADE For COLDs.-Hot
lemonade is one of the best remedies
for colds, as it acts promptly and eff
GENTLY, and has no unpleasant after
effects. One lemon should be properly
squeezed, cut in slices, put with sugar
and covered with half pint Of boiling
water. Drink just before going to bed
and do not expose yourself the follow
ing day.
