Lem Onade from the juice of the
lemon is one of the best and safest of
drinks for any person, whether in
health or not. 1t is suitable for all
stomach diseases, excellent in sick
ness, in cases of jaundice, gravel,
liver complaint, Inflammation of the
bowels and fevers. 1t is specific
against worms and the skin COM
plants. Lemon juice is the best
antiscorbutic remedy known. 1t not
only cures disease, but prevents it.
Sailors make daily use of it for this
purpose. We advise people to rub
their gums with it to keep them in a
healthy condition. The hands and
nails are also kept clean, white, soft
and supple by the daily use of lemon
juice instead of SOAP. 1t also pre-
vents chilblains. Lemon is used in
intermittent fevers, mixed with
strong black coffee, without sugar.
Neuralgia, it is said, may be cured by
rubbing the part affected with cut
lemon. 1t is valuable also to cure
warts. 1t will remove dandruff by
rubbing the roots of the hair with it.
1t will alleviate and finally cure
coughs and Gods and heal diseased
lungs, if taken hot on going to bed at
night. It's uses are manifold, and
the more we employ it internally the
better we shall find ourselves. A
doctor i'm Rome is trying it expert
mentally in malarial fevers with
success, and thinks it will in time
