cure hiccoughs in a child. Drink of water often brings immediate
relief. In prolonged cases of hiccoughing, weak, hot coffee with cream
and sugar given at frequent intervals has cured the patient.
NOSE BLEED.--Snuff powdered alum up the nose. This alum is also good
for checking hemorrhage, sometimes caused by extracting teeth. Fill the
cavity with the alum. Apply cold salt water to bleeding nose if you
haven't alum.
CORNS.--Bind bread soaked in vinegar on the corns day and night and
they will come out by the roots.
WARTS.--Prick with a needle (sterilized by boiling in clear water for
ten minutes) until the wart bleeds then apply soda.
BUNIONS.--Pulverize salt petre and sweet oil mixed well and applied to
the sore joints often brings relief. Bunions are usually caused by
wearing shoes too short.
SUMMER COMPLAINT OR DIARRHOEA.--In early stages unless alarming
symptoms appear, give the child or patient a generous dose of castor
oil and keep patient on a light diet for a day or two or refrain from
eating at all for twelve hours. If passages are green and full of
mucous membrane call a physician immediately as delay may be fatal.
Whites of two eggs mixed with a little water sipped frequently is often
healing also to stomach and bowels.
GOOD WAY TO GIVE CASTOR OIL.--Put a tablespoon of orange juice into a
small tumbler, pour in the required amount of oil, and more orange
juice on top. The oil forms a ball in the middle of the juice and is
swallowed without coming in contact with the tongue. Wine may be used
instead of orange juice.
BURNS.--Grated raw peeled potatoes spread on bandages and bound on a
badly burned arm, shoulder and hand brought immediate relief to one of
my children once when I was on a farm and could not get a doctor. I
kept the bandages moist by binding fresh new, wet ones over the old
ones until pain ceased but did not remove the dressing at all until
wound was healed. It healed perfectly without leaving any scar. Do not
know the merits of this remedy from a physician's standpoint but it was
used successfully in a bad hotel fire in a village where no physicians
resided and the patients all recovered from severe burns and there were
no scars left on their bodies.--Mrs. Whitehead.
LOCK UP POISONS.--All poisons should be labeled and kept in a
compartment by themselves. Such household remedies as laudenum,
chloroform, arsenic, aconite belladona, cough medicine, carbolic acid,
headache pellets or powders, linaments, opiates, fly poison, etc.,
should be kept in a locked box or in a covered can labeled "poison"
placed out of the reach of children. They should always be kept
separate from all other medicine. "An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure." Many deaths are caused by carelessness in placing
poisonous remedies within the reach of children. Unless poison can be
kept in a safe place, it is wiser always to throw it in the fire or to
bury it--and buy a new supply when needed than to run the risk of
poisoning a member of the family. Always look at the label on a bottle
before taking any medicine.
TOOTH ACHE.--Chloroform and clove oil applied with a piece of absorbent
cotton to the cavity of an aching tooth brings immediate relief.
CROUP.--Lard or goose grease and turpentine applied freely to the
throat and chest. Hot steam inhaled from a sponge dipped in boiling
water makes breathing easier. In serious cases an antiseptic should be
given to produce vomiting immediately until the physician arrives. Give
castor oil to a child showing symptoms of a croupy cough.

The Difference In Sewing Machines
It is a mistaken idea that sewing machines are pretty much alike, when
as a matter of fact there is a vast difference.
There is but one machine that sews better than any other--and that one
is the Singer.
This is because the Singer idea is distinctive--every year shows
improvement in that idea.
This is because the Singer factories are not only equipped with tools
and machinery better calculated to make good sewing machines than any
other, but this equipment is unique and not to be found elsewhere.
This is because a half century has been devoted to training and
specializing men each to do one thing best in sewing machine
construction. The Singer's superiority--its lifetime-lasting
value--does not appear on the surface.
One machine does sew better than any other--and that one is the Singer.
