A CERTAIN CURE FOR WARTS.—Take the inner rind of a lemon, steep it twenty-four hours in vinegar, and apply it to the wart. The lemon must not remain on the part above three hours, and must then be applied fresh every day.—F. E. W.—[This is only another mode of applying acetic acid. The application with a camel-hair brush is the best method.] ANOTHER METHOD.—Get a little bullock’s gall, keep it in a bottle, and rub a little on the wart two or three times a day. REMEDY FOR RHEUMATISM, LUMBAGO, SPRAINS, BRUISES, CHILBLAINS (BEFORE THEY ARE BROKEN), AND BITES OF INSECTS.—One raw egg well beaten, half a pint of vinegar, one ounce of spirits of turpentine, a quarter of an ounce of spirits of wine, a quarter of an ounce of camphor. These ingredients to be beaten well together, then put in a bottle and shaken for ten minutes, after which, to be corked down tightly to exclude the air. In half an hour it is fit for use. Directions:—To be well rubbed in, two, three, or four times a day. For rheumatism in the head, to be rubbed at the back of the neck and behind the ears. This liniment can be made at home for 9d.; if not made at home, the chemist should be told to follow the prescription exactly.—J. H. D. A CERTAIN REMEDY FOR SPASMS.—Take three-pennyworth of balsam of sulphur, and three-pennyworth of oil of aniseed; put these together, and let them stand in a warm place for twenty-four hours, and at the same time take two-pennyworth of spirits of wine, and two-pennyworth of spirits of turpentine, put these together, and let them stand as the above; then, after twenty-four hours, mix the whole well together. Take seven or eight drops on a piece of loaf sugar when the pain is troublesome, and it will give instant relief. Observe, a little tea or coffee may be taken afterwards, to rinse the mouth.—W. W. SIMPLE REMEDY FOR A PAIN IN THE SIDE.—At bed-time take a fresh cabbage-leaf, hold it near the fire till quite warm, and then apply it to the part affected, binding it tight with a cloth round the body; let it remain for twelve hours or more, when it will generally be found to have removed the pain. If not entirely removed, it will be well to repeat the application of a fresh leaf, allowing it to remain on the same time as the first. This will very seldom fail.—I have forwarded the above three very simple, yet, at the same time, efficacious prescriptions, with the intention that they may be of service to some of the numerous readers of your volume, as well as in the district in which I reside.—A.
