In a lit, the feet should he placed in warm water, with mustard added, and the legs hrisklv rubbed, all bandages removed from the neck, and a cold apartment procured, if possible. In many cases of Severe bleeding of the lung.-, ami when other remedies failed, l)r. Rush found that two teaspoonfuls of salt completely stayed the blood.

In i looinacne, wanii, sail an.i water liehl to llie ' pail, ami 10moved two or three times, will relieve it. in most eases. It* the gums bo allWted, wash the month with brine. If the teeth he covered with tartar, wash them twice a tlay with salt and water. In swelled neck, wash the part with brine, and drink it, also, twice a da}', until cured. Salt will expel worms, if used in food in a moderate degree, and aids digestion, but salt meat is injurious, if used much.?Kx.
