Odd Cures For Seasickness.

Among curious remedies for seasick- ness is that which is popular among the mariners in the Levant-the daily swallowing of iron rust, which is ob- tained by the simple process of scrap ing it off the anchor or anchor chain. But this is only part of the treatment, for a small pouch containing roasted salt and flowers of thyme must be tied upon the abdomen as firmly as can be borne, this being considered to counter act the effect of the internal disturb ance caused by the rolling of the yes sel. Known to the ancient Greeks as "thymian salt," the preparation has at least the authority of old age, while its efficacy is not without modern tes- timony. And the belt is better than salt and faith better than the belt.
