HONEY AS MEDICINE. 497 
A constant use of honey, at meal time, cures some of the 
worst cases of piles. 
“ According to Mr. Woiblet, washing the hands with sweet- 
ened water will kill warts. Having heard of this healing 
he put honey plasters on the hands of a child who had a large 
wart in the palm of the hand, and after a few days of treatment 
tle wart disappeared.’? — BERTRAND, (Revue Internationale d’ Api- 
culture.) 
To these many uses of honey, we might add other recipes, 
bit our limits forbid. For all sorts of honey-cakes, wines, 
metheglin, mead, etc., we will refer our readers to the 
already mentioned pamphlet of Mr. T. G. Newman, of Chi- 
cago, ‘‘Honey as Food and Medicine.’’ The price is a 
tre. It contains many good things.
