SIMPLE REMEDIES, •

pan. Set fire, Lurn for a few moments,
plow out ,then inhale the fumes.
To Extract a Needle. -Apply a mag-
net immediately; Ilse flash closes rap-
idly over a needle, which soon takes
it out o1 sight. A magnet stops the
penetrating movement of the needle,
and in a ehort 1111te draws -it feet front
the flesh. without pain.
Beet Pouitloe.—After having the mis-
fortune of stepping on a rusty nail or
anything of the hind, mike a poultice
of grated awd Leafs and apply nt once.
As it gets dry remove and .put on a
fresh one. It will draw out the fever,
soreness and any substance which
[night have gotten into the wound.
convalescent's Tray.—To 1$011.0 meals
to a person. able to sit up in bed; Se-
cure froln y'0111' grocer a. Corey to a
sugar barrel and remove the handle
/,'lace the lrayclath and dishes on the
nlside of the cover and you will have
a commodious fray with un inch rim,
which prevents dishes slipping off.
Carrot Ointment.—rake a large car-
rot, grata 11, add two tablespoons lard,
slew 'together 1n a saucepan] till the
