The Rubber Band Cure.
A simple remedy for headache
worth trying is to put a rublxtr band
around the head just above the ears.
The band should not be tight enough
to stop the circulation of the blood.
The band known as the string bnnd
is generally sufficiently heavy for
thepurose. It should le applied
just as soon as it is noticed that the
headache is setting in, and taken of!
the moment the jmin ceases. In many
cases the rublier luind works nicely,
though it atlords no relief when the
headache is the result of stomach
trouble or billiousness. I find, also
that a rublier band twisted about a
toe between the corn and the foot is
a handy remedy to stop the pain
from a jumping corn. Coras arc
very liable to lie troublesome when
there is much humidity in the at
mosphere. The rubber band seems
to temporarily quiet the nerves in
the toe, and in this ' way stop the
pain. As in the case of a band
around the head, the pressure should
not be tight enough to stop the cir-
S eulation ot the blood. '

Remedy for Typhoid Fever
Here is a treatment for typhoid
fever which our informant says has,
to his knowledge, never failinl to
cure : When the fever starts sat urate
a couple of sheets in us cold water
as fin lie had, ice cold if obtainable;
strip and wrap the patient iu these
water-soaked aheets and as soon iis
the sheet Ijccnmc warm from heatof
body apply other cold ones until the
fever breaks, which it will do after
a few packings in these cold-watered
cloths. All that is needed besides
this treatment for the recovery of
the patientis to administer remedies
to overcome any costiveness in the
case. Saxton Herald.
