WHAT DR. LEMON WILL DO.

Do you want to know the name of one of the best all around household doctors, and certainly the cheapest that can be found in any country ? It is Dr. Lemon. Yes, an ordinary, sour, vellow lemon,

Here are some of the things Dr. Lemon will do for you if you give him a chance. Squeeze him into a glass of water every morning and drink him with very littlesugar. He will keep your stomach in the best of order and never let Mr Dyspepsia, whom he hates cordially, get into it.

If you have dark hair and it seems to be falling out, cut off a slice of the doctor and rub him on your scalp. He will stop that little trouble promptly. Squeeze him into a quart of milk and he will give you a mixture to rub on your face night and morning and get a complexion like a princess.

Pour him into an equal quantity of glycerine and rub your hands with the mixture before going to bed. If you don’t mind sleeping with gloves on that is better still and helps the doctor considerably in his task of whit nmg your hands. In the morning wash your hands thoroughly in warm water and apply the doctor again pure, but only a few drops this time. You must not keep this up too long or your hands will show such a dazzling whiteness as to make all the other young ladies in the vicinity jealous. If you have a bad headache cut Dr. Lemon into slices, and rub these along your temples. The pain will not be long disappearing—or at least iu growing easier to bear.

If a bee or an Insect stings you clap a few drops of the doctor on the spot and you will find yourself the better for it. If you have a troublesome corn the doctor can be again put to good account by rubbing him on the toe after you have taken a hot bath, and cut away as much as possible of the troublesome intruder. Besides all this the doctor is always ready to sacrifice himself in the cause cf Russian tea—slice him without sugar—or in the preparation of old-fashioned lemonade, than which no drink is more wholesome. Altogether Dr. Lemon is an individual few people can afford to get along without.
