Cure For Dlarhoea
The following extract from a Tasmanian paper (the 'Examiner') has been banded to us for publication, the abovo complaint being prevalent during the fiuit season : — " Take a cupful of good rice ; put it into a fryiug pan quite lree from all grease, and well roast it through, as with coffee beans, stirring well to avoid burning. When ground it should be a good brown. Take a desert spoonful of the powder and pour half a cupful of boiling water on it. Let it stand until cool, and then drink without any addition. One dose is almost always sufficient to cure the worst cases ; but if not successful in the first instance, repoat the dose in, say, three or four hours. I have never known it to fail after the second dose. It is most important that it should be prepared exactly as above, especially as to its being well roasted. Long standing cases have yielded to this when medicine has utterly failed." —
