THE HOME DOCTOR.
Haif a teaspoonful of table salt disiplved in a half glassful ol cold water will give instant relief in case of heartburn.
Many cases of indigestion, headache, neuralgia, cold hands and feet can be quickly cured by drinking slowly one or two pints of water so hot that it almost burns the throat. To inhale steam from a bowl of boiling water is very good for a sore throat. The sufferer should lean over the steam drowing it in both throat and nostrils.
People with poor digestion should drink no water with meals, but take a glassful half an hour and drink plenty an hour so after each meal.
Warts may be entirely removed by washing the hands two or three times a day with water in which potatoes have been boiled, or by bathing the wart several times with potato water.
