Zurich Herald, 1916-03-03, Page 3Remedies for Child's CoId. Mothers have many trials in the shape of children's bad colds, sore throats, croup, etc. As a precaution- ary measure, of possible, the tonsils and adenoid growths should be re- itnoved. The danger to the child is very slight. In three operations on children in my own family the child was in each instance entirely able to go home from the hospital nine hours after the operation, and suffered only a slight inconvenience next day, com- plaining of slight pain only occasian- ally, writes Mrs. N. 0. B.. I have trained my children to take a cold water plunge every morning immed- iately upon getting out of bed. This does -not mean dabbling in the water. It is a sudden plunge and a quick, vigorous rub -down with bath towel. This they have winter and summer, and, although at first, a burden, the results are worth the trouble. Several years ago I discarded cough syrups and have used only white vase - line and sugar. A jar of each is kept convenient and a small spoon; and if a child coughs, or is hoarse, I give a half teaspoonful of vaseline dipped in white sugar. For hoarseness tend- ing to croup I use a croup kettle with steaming water and a tablespoonful of compound tincture of benzoin. Place over alcohol lamp near the child and let the pleasant smelling vapor heal the trouble. I frequently burn this in the room where the children are playing and at night pull the bed out from the wall at the head and put the croup kettle behind, where the vapor can reach the child. Do not close win- dows, as fresh air helps. In any or- dinary case of croup this will prove ef- ficacious. For a cold in the head a small rub- ber bulb ear syringe is used to give a nose douche with a glass of warm (not hot) water into which has been and could not eat, and as I was alone dissolved 1/s teaspoonful of salt and a rely condition was pitiable. Finally the pinch of cooking soda. This thorough- porter wired ahead to North Bend for ly cleanses the nasal passages and a doctor to see me.

Scarlet Fever. Scarlet fever is perhaps the most dreaded of all the so-called dieases of Woman's Beall Needs Constant Care Work and Worry Leaves Her a Victim of Many Distressing Ailments Every woman's health is peculiar dependent upon the condition of h blood.

Francis, Oakwood, Ont says: "I should have written long ag to tell what Dr. Williams Pink Pill did for me, but I suppose it is bette late than never. In June, 1913, I ha to go to an hospital for an operatio for female weakness. I was in th hospital for a month, before I ova able to get home. Three weeks afte this I started for a trip to the Pacifi coast, in the hope that my heal. would further improve. On the w I stopped to visit a sister in Souther Alberta, and on arriving at her hom (after a 35 mile drive), I was com pletely done out. I found my silt ill, her baby having been born th week before. As there was no on to help, I had to take care of the child and do the household work, and i the three weeks that passed befor my sister took charge I was com- pletely worn out, and again nearly ill However, I started on my westward trip, and decided to stop off at Banff:, where I remained a week, but it did not seem to help ma, and I resumed my journey.

Her husband is a bro- ther of the Duke of Eoxburghe, "LUCKY LAMBTON" He Has Not Lost a Man in Transport- ing Troops Admiral Sir Hedworth Meux, who. has been commander-in-chief at Ports mouth since 1912, and on whose shoul- ders has rested themain responsibility for the safe transport of our troops across the English Channel—one, of the most amazing achievements o this war—has been called "Luck Lambton," chiefly on account of th fact that, as Sir Hedworth Lambton he inherited :£20,00.0 per annum uncle the will of the late Lady Meux whos name he subsequently took. Luck, of course, plays a part i every man's life, but whatever fortun Sir Hedworth owes to the fickle god dess, his naval and military succes is due solely to his own brilliant po. ers. Entering the navy as a boy o 14 in 1870, he had his first taste of wa in the bombardment of Alexandria. H is probably best known to the man i the street, however, by the manner in which he handled the Naval Brigade in the South African War. With Sir Percy Scott, who has been busy looking after London's defences against air raids, he landed a brigade from the ship, and took the naval guns to Ladysmith, arriving at eleven o'clock on Monday morning, At noon Lambton had his guns in posi- tion and ordered the first gun to be fired at Long Tom. It went wide, but killed a Boer or two. Lambton put his telescope to his eye, and or- dered another shot to be fired, and actually saw the famous Boer gun dismounted with a well -directed lyd- dite shell. Apropos of the .hoer War, Sir Fled. worth tells a good story: "An order was issued that all men of the High- land regiments must cover up their uniforms, as it was thought they made too obvious targets for the foe, The late. Sir George White, who be- lieved the order would prove popular, had an idea. 'Let them,' he said 'cover the front of their uniforms. The en- emy will never see the other side!' " Unlike the majority of sailors, Sir Hedworth is as good a pian at riding a horse as he is at riding the seas, He is fond of all sports, but his greatest passion is hunting. He has won many races on his own ponies at Malta. One of the dight brothers of the Karl of Durham, he is maternally near - 1y allied to the. great ducal house of Abereoru and Russell, the late Count- . ess of Durham leaving been a daughter . of the first Duke of Abercorn familiar- ly known as "Old Splendid," and Lady Louisa, his duchess, daughter of the sixth Duke of Bedford, Sir Bedworth married in 1910 Viscountess Chelsea. f y e e u e Off to School, Full of Vim and Pep—Don't cram their little "tummies" with greasy meats, starchy potatoes or other indigestible foods.

Relent and Economical, The work of the British "Woman's Legion" has demonstrated conclusive- ly that trained women operating in their own sphere—particularly in the camp kitchens—are .immensely superior .to untrained men. Last August the employment of the first women cooks was sanctioned by the War Office, The scheme was put forward by Lady Londonderry when the appalling wastefulness and inef- ficiency in the various camp kitchens became evident. One hundred women cooks were tak- en. Twenty were installed at the Convoleseent Hospital at Dartford Camp, and the plan was spread to Epsom, Eastbourne, and Alnwick, and will be to Blackpool, always with a marked improvement. At the Black- pool Convalescent Camp alone 160 women will be employed. An Army School of Cookery at which women instruct has now been inaugurated for the training of mili- tary cooks who will serve at the front. Thirteen women are already engaged in this work.
