QUICK RELIEF FOR EARACHE

To relieve earache take a small piece of cotton batting, depress it in

the center with the finger and fill up the cavity with ground black

pepper. Gather it into a ball and tie it with thread. Dip the pepper

ball into sweet oil and insert it in the ear, then putting cotton over

the ear and using a bandage or cap to keep it in place. This application

will give immediate relief and can do no injury.

=Another Remedy.=—Take a common tobacco pipe, put a wad of cotton into

the bowl and drop a few drops of chloroform into it. Cover this with

another wad of cotton, place the pipe stem to the suffering ear and blow

into the bowl. The chloroform vapor will in many cases cause the pain to

cease almost immediately.
