LimeWater.

Ldmewater has so many uses it is hard to classify. It is good to soften water. to sweeten drains, to keep milk vessels wholesome, to make milk itself sit well upon delicate stomachs, to test air for excess of car Ibonic acid-if there is too much carbcnic acid present, the clear limewater instantly crusts over-to take out marks left by grease spots which have been removed by stronger alkalis- in fact, for so many things it should always be kept on hand. Mixed with either sweet or linseed oil to creamy consistency. 1t Is the very best household remedy f0p burns and scalds.
 It cosst practically no more than the trouble of makng. Put a lump of quick lime as big as the two fists in a clean earthen rifcher. cover 1t six inches deep with clean. cold water, stir with wood- en spoon and let it stand six hours. Pour of the clear liquid without disturb ing the lime, but let 1t run through dou- ble cheesecIc tn. Put in small bottles and cork tight. In using always pour off half an inch from the top of bottle that has Rf0od. ,-.

"Nerve Waste" by DR.. Sawyer of San

This work of an experienced and reput-
able physician is in agreeable contrast
to the vast sum of false teaching which
prevails on this interesting subject. 1t
abounds in carefully considered and
practical advice, and has the two great
merits OF wisdom and sincerity.
1t is indorsed both by the religious
and secular press. The Chicago Ad-

the application of its principles will put
health. hope and heart into thousands
of lives that are now suffering through
