FARM AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS
IT mH com?ni;n(;(Tf fonnrom flif pcnmwiwfto are
interested in matters property belonging to this
department. ,
How to Keep a Cellar Warm.
' The mode of proceeding is given by
the JS'-tentifir American, as follows:
" The walls nnd ceiling were pasted
over with four or five thicknesses of old
newspapers, a curtain of tho same mate
rial piistcd over the small low windows at
the top of the cellar. The papers were
pasted to tho bare joists over head, leaving
an uir space between them and the floor.
Ue reports that the papers carried his
roots through hist winter, though tho
cellar was left unbauked, and he is con
fident they have made the cellar frost
proof. We do not counsel the special
use of old newspapers for this purpose.
It is just as well or better to use coarse
brown paper. Whatever paper is cm
ployed, it will be necessary to sweep down
tho walls thoroughly, and use a very
(strong size io hold he paper to tho
stones. It is not necessary to press tho
paper down into all the depressions of
the wall; every air hmucc beneath it is an
additonal defence against the cold."
Wo liavc no doubt the process des
cribed above will prove efficacious. Try
it. It is inexpensive, and easily done.
How to Make Neat:, Foot Oil.
The hoofs are chopped oJf, and the oth
er p 'ft ions are cracked and boiled thor
oughly, From the surface of, this boiled
mass pure neat's font oil is nkiuiuied,
-which is unsurpassed by any other olea
ginous uiatti r for harness, shoes, etc.
After the oil is taken off the water is
strained, to take from it any fatty parti-
cies mat re-mam. una uiun it is noiieu
again, until, upon trying, it is found to
settle into a stjif jelly. It is then poured
into flat bottomed dishes, and when cold,
. cut into suitable sized pieces. It hard
ens in a lew days, and then you will have
a very fine article of ghie, free from im
purities of any kind. Uy taking a por
tion of this glutinous substance before it
becomes too thick. and brushing it over
.pieces of silk, you have -just as much
court plaster as you desire, inodorous, te
nacious, and entirely five from those
poisonous qualities which cause (as much
of the article sold by apothecaries does,)
inflaaiation, when applied to scratches,
outs, and sores.
Medical Properties of Eps.
The white of an egg has proved of late
the most efficacious remedy for burns.
Seven or eight successive applications of
this substance soothes pain and effectu
ally includes the burn from the uii. This !
simple remedy seems preferable to collo
dium, or even cotton. Extraordinary sto
ries are told of the healing properties of
of a new oil which is easily made from
the yolks of hens' eggs. The eggs are
first boiled hard, and the yolks are then
removed, crushed, and placed' over a liro,
where they are carefully stirred until the
whole substance is just on the point of
catching fire, when the yolk will yield
nearly two teaspoonfuls of oil. It is in
general use among the colouists of South
Russia as a means of curing cuts, bruises
and scratches.
Done I'clon.
Of all painful things, can there be any
to excrutiatingly painful as a bone felon 1
Wo know of none that flesh is heir to;
and as this malady is quite frequent and
the subject of much earnest consideration,
we give the latent recipe for its cure,
which is given by that high authority
the London Loihrt : "As soon as tho dis
ease is felt, put directly over the spot . a
fly blister, about tho size of your thumb
iinil and let it remain lor six hours, at
the expiratiou of which time, directly
under the surj'aco of the blister, may bo
seen tho felon.' which can instautly be
taken out with the poiut of a needle or a
lancet."
tiHT It is certainly a curious fact that
the substances required to form common
table milt, are both of them poisonous
chlorino id Bodimii.' No .quo can use
cither of these articles separately with safe
ty. and yet. combine theui,nnd.they form a
substance neeeuwiry to-"health, aud. found
upon every table.

THE KIDNEYS.
rpiIE Kidneys re two in number, situated t
1 the upper part of the loin, surrounded by
fat. and consisting of three part, viz s the An
terior, the Interior and tho Exterior.
Tho Anterior absorbs. Interior consists of
tissues or veins, which serve as a deposit for
the nriuo and convey it to the Exterior. T)M
Exterior is a conductor also, terminating in
single tube, and called the Ureter. The Ureter
are connected with the bladder.
The bladder is composed of various cover
ings or tissues, divided Into parts, viz. i th
Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, aud the Mucous.
The upper expels, the lower retains. Many
have a desire to urinate without the abllityi
others urinate, without tho ability to retain.
This frequently occurs in children.
To cure these affections, wo must bring inU
action the muscles, which are engaged In their
varlouB functions. If they are neglected, Gravel
or Dropsy niuj ensue.
The render must also be made aware, that
however slight may be tlie attack, it is sure to
affect tho bodily health and mental powers, at
our Hesh and blood arc supported from these
sources.
Goi t, oh Rheumatism. Pain occurring In
the loins are indicative of tlie above diseases.
They occur iu persons disposed to acid stomach
and chalkv concretions.
Deaii 8ir I have been a sufferer, for upward
of twenty years, with gravel, bladder, and kid
ney uU'cclions, during which time I have used
various medicinal preparations, und been under
tlie treatment of the most eminent Physicians,
experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively
advertised, 1 consulted with my family physi
cian In regard to using your Extract Buchu.
I did this because 1 had used all kinds of ad
vertised remedies, and had found them worth
less, und, some quite Injurious ; In fact, I de
spaired of ever getting well, and determined t
use no remedies hereafter unless I knew of th
ingredients. It was this that prompted mo to
use your remedy. As you advertised that it
was composed of buchu, cubebs, und juniper
berries, it occurred to me mid my physician as
an excellent combiiiution, and, with his advice,
after un cxamim tion of tlie article, and con
sulting again with the druggist, I concluded to
try it. I commenced its use about eight mouths
ago, at which time I was contincd to my room.
From the first bettle I was astonished and grat
ified ut the bcncticial effect, und uitcr using it
three weeks, win able to walk out. I felt much
liko writing yon a full statement of my caso at
the time, but thought my improvement might
only be temporarj, and therefore concluded to
defer und see if it would cllcct a perfect cure,
knowing then it would be of more value to you,
and more satisfactory to me.
I am now able to report that a cure is effect
ed after using the remedy for live months.
I havo not used any now for three months,
aud feel us well lu all respects as I ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant
taste and odor, a uico tonic aud invlgorator of
tho system, I do not mean to bo without it
whenever occasion may require its use iu such
affections.
m. Mccormick;
Should any doubt Mr. McCormick's state
ment, ho refers to the following gentlemen :
The Guavel, Tho gravel ensues from neg
lect or improper treatment of the kidneys.
These organs being weak, the water is uot ex
pelled from the bladder, but allowed to remain
it becomes feverish, and sediment forms. It is
from tliis deposit that the stone is formed and
gravel ensues.
DitOPSY is a collection of water iu some parts
of the body, and bears dill'ercut names, accord
lug to the parts affected, viz. : when general
ly diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca
when of the abdomen, Ascites ; when of the
idlest, Hydrothorax.
Theatment. Helinbold's highly conceutra
cd, compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one
of ihe best remedies for diseases of tho blad
der, kidneys, bladder, dropsical swellings,
rheumatism and gouty aflections. Under this
hend we havo urranged Dysurla, or difficulty
and puln in passing wuter, Scanty Secretion, or
small and frequent discharges of water ; Stran
gury, or stopping of water ; Hematuria, or
bloody urine ; Gout and Rheumatism of the
kidneys, without any change in quantity, bu
Increase In color, or dark water. It was al
ways highly recommend by tho late Dr. Phys
ick, in these affections.
This medicine increases tho power of diges
tion, end excites tho absorbents into healthy
exercise by which tho wutery or calcareous de
positions, and all unnatural enlargements, as
well as pain aud inllamutiou, are reduced, and
it is taken by men, women, and children. Di
rections for use uud diet accompany.
