Doctor^s Y^\r)\s 



JBy DR. PEIRO, Chicago, 111. 



Frozen Flesh. 



I know of nothing better to thaw a frozen 

 ear, nose or fingers than to wrap them up 

 in a rag that has been well sprinkled with 

 turpentine. But snow or cold water does 

 excellently, and is more easily obtained. 

 Queer hovp frozen water cures frozen flesh 

 — but it is so. 



Double Action of Salt. 



Another funny thing in Nature is, that 

 salt put on ice prevents it melting so fast ; 

 yet salt put on an icy sidewalk melts it 

 soon. Now, how do you account for this 

 double action ? 



Better Fat than Tliln. 



Why, you silly boy! Poke-root berries 

 are not the part that makes fat folks thin 

 — it is the rout that is used. And I would 

 advise you to not even try that. It can do 

 you much harm. Better be fat and healthy 

 than thin and sickly. 



Freckles Indicate Health. 



" Freckles !" Why, don't you know that 

 is the very best evidence of health you can 

 have ? Well, it is. If I were very sickly, 

 I'd give a quarter for every freckle they 

 could put on my face, and would snap my 

 finger at every boy who called me " freckle 

 nose." 



Squirrel Bites. 



Well, I expect you squeezed your " Bun- 

 ny " a little too tight, and he bit you. 

 Squirrels are apt to resent too pressing 

 familiarity. But his bite is no worse than 

 any other. The idea that it causes fits is 

 simply ridiculous ! 



Tight Sboes and Corns. 



Corns ? They are usually the result of 

 tight or ill-fitting shoes. They press so hard 

 over a spot of skin that it cannot grow nat- 

 ural, but is condensed into a callous. That's 

 a corn. Dig out the hard core so as to 

 leave a hole instead, and you are relieved. 

 But the same Shoe will occasion another 

 corn, in time. 



Peacli Seeds Tor Gouslis. 



Peach pits are good for whooping-cough, 

 and other kinds of coughs, too. The most 

 violent poison can be distilled from them, 

 called "hydrocyanic acid." But a seed 

 eaten every hour or so is perfectly harmless. 



Baked Apples lor Dyspepsia. 



Bessie, tell grandma that if she will live 

 one week on baked apples only— nothing 

 else — her dyspepsia will give her little 

 trouble. I'd almost like to have the 'pepsia 

 just to get the baked apples ! 



Bnckfvheat vs. Alfalfa Honey. 



Well, Billy, there are curious kinds of 

 honey. The kind the bees store from buck- 

 wheat « apt to give you a sour stomach, 

 but if I you can get alfalfa honey, stored 

 from a kind of clover — you just sail in. It's 

 licking good ! 



Cronpy Parrots. 



So your "Dandy" has the croup, you 

 think 1. Well, dearie, I'd like to tell you 

 what to do, but I'm sorry I am not a bird 

 doctor. Try cuttle-fish bone ; it is said to 

 be good for such troubles.
