SALT AS A PANACEA.
Some Of the Many and Varied Uses
to Which It Is Put.

From the Family Doctor
Salt can almost be regarded as a pana-
cea, so many and varied are it's uses.
We are told that 1t cleanses the palate
and furred tongue, and a gargle OF salt
and water is often ef1cacious
A pinch of salt on the tongue, followed
ten minutes afterward by a drink OF cold
water. often cures sick headache. It
hardens gums. makes teeth white and
sweetens the breath.
Cut flowers may be kept fresh by add
ing salt to the water.
Weak ankles should be rubbed with a
solution Of salt. water and alcohol.
Bad colds. hay fever and kindred affec-
lions may be much relieved by using fine
dry salt like snuff.
Dyspepsia. heartburn and indigestion
are relieved by cup Of hot water in
which a small spoonful Of salt has been
melted
Salt and water will sometimes revive
an unconscious person when hurt II
brandy or other remedies are not at hand.
Hemorrhage from tooth pulling is stopped
by filing the mouth with salt and water.
Weak and tired eyes are refreshed by
bathing with warm water and salt.
Many public speakers and singers use a
wash of salt and water before and after
using the voice. as 1t strengthens the or
gans of the throat.
Salt rubbed into the scalp or occasion
ally added to the water in washing pre-
vents the hair falling out
Feathers uncurled by damp weather are
quickly dried by shaking over a fire in
which salt has been thrown
Salt should always be eaten with nuts
and a dessert fruit salt should be special
ly made.

Story Of Cheap Postage.

from the Dundee Advertiser.
The introduction of penny postage be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States gives special interest to the
book by Fred J. Melville, entitled "A
Penny All the Way; the Story of Penny
POSTAGE. The author, who is president
Of the Junior Philatelic Society, traces
the origin of the idea of penny postage
back to 1859. when one John Hill, an at
torney OF York, essayed to settle penny
post for England. a 'two-penny rate for
Wales and Scotland, and a four-penny
rate for Ireland. 1t is curious that the
surname o. this pioneer. who has hither-
TO been ignored in postal history. should
reformer Of the British post Office and
the lntroducer of uniform penny postage,
Sir Rowland Hill. This post was sup
pressed by the farmer of the postal rev.
enues. Twenty-one years later in 1880,
Robert Murray and William Dockwra set
up their London penny post. which had
hourly deliveries in London, Westminster,
Southwark and the neighboring places. ex-
tending to the four towns of Hackney,
Islington. South Newington Butts and
Lambeth. Dockwra set up 400 or 500 re-
ceiving houses for letters in London at a
time when the general post office had only
eight places where letters could be posted
in London. The Duke Of York afterward
James II. to whom the profits OF the post
office had been granted by Charles II.
brought number of actions against
Dockwra. and ultimately got the London
penny post wrested from its first pro-
moter and made a separate branch of the
don had its penny post. based on Dock
wra's plan. and then in 1901 a retrograde
step was taken by converting 1t into
two-penny post. -
