SIMPLE CURES EASILY TRIED For colds there are a dczen and more pleasant cures in the garden. Beans, bruised and boiled with garlic), will cure the most obstinate cough, as well as supplying a nutritous supper.

Other ouree for coughs and °olds are the juice of red cabbage, made into a syrup with plenty of sugar, and taken in teaspoon doses. Peel and equeeze a few turnipo, add three ounces of sugar, horseradish at meals and at intervals all day for the persistent cough following in finer za. Relief will be speedy •and lasting. Corns or warts youaran oure by apply- ing boiled potatoes, the juice of green figs, dandelion juice or elberberry juice. Better still ie a thin slice of pineapple bandaged over the corn and left for eight hours. The corn is then quite soft, and can be easilyremoved.
