REMEDIES FOR SEA SICKNESS.

Now that the holiday season is approaching when many of our readers will be tempted to take a trip by tea, the following list of remedies for vial de mer will be found interesting. Critical persons might say that some of these are contradictory, bat this is only apparently the case, for a trial of one or more will give the same result in the end :—: — Dine well before embarking. Promenade on deck. Keep in your cabin. Remain lying down, with valise on the stomaoh. Take 6ome rum. Take antipyrine. Drink a glass of sea water every morning. Eat well. E*t little. Wear a wide flannel belt. Keep your gaze to seaward. Don't look at the sea. Have on the stomach a sachet filled with sea salt. Tuke every morning a little brandy. Follow the motion of the vessel, whether in walking or in sitting down. Retain a small stone, or, better, a cherrystone, in the month. Be gay, put away melancholy, avoid reading and writing and Berious occupations. Give yourself up to serious and interesting studies. Drink only lemon water. Hold a lemon on the hand during crossing. Do nothing to keep yourself from mal de mer.
