Sliced Cucumber Pickles. One quart cucumbers sliced thin, but not pared, 1 large (sliced) onion, I small, finely chopped green pepper; sprinkle with salt and let stand three hours. Drain, add one cup of brown sugar, 1-2 teaspoonful cloves, 1-2 teaspoon tumeric, 1 tablespoon grated horseradish and enough vinegar to cover. Let this heat well, but do not boil. Seal. A New Pickle to Many. Gather the young seeds of the nasturtium on a dry day, wash them and place them in a strong brine till next day, when they can be covered with spiced vinegar, or they can be dried and placed in vinegar left over from pickles, which greatly improves their flavor. Pickled nasturtiums are sometimes used as a substitute for capers in caper sauce. To Preserve Olives. On opening a bottle of olives, if they are not to be used at once, pour into the bottle a tablespoonful of sweet oil, which not only prevents the mould from forming, but adds flavor to the olives. Canning Vegetables. Pick your vegetables while they are tender and can them while they are fresh. Put them on the stove to cook until they have boiled ten minutes so they will shrink then and not after they are in the jars. Fill the jars, adding 1-2 teaspoon salt and one cup of water to a quart jar. Put on rubbers, be sure they are new, and put one wire over the cover. Do not snap down the second wire yet. Put your wash boiler over the fire and place a board 1-2 inch thick in the bottom of the boiler. Stand your jars on the board and pour in warm water until it reaches the neck of the jars. For this reason it is not possible to boil quart and pint jars at the same time. After the water boils time it, being sure the water is kept boiling and adding more as it boils away. After three hours of steady boiling, snap down the second wire and boil 30 minutes more. Remove jars, and let stand 24 hours, then unsnap the wires and try to pull the glass cap off. If it pulls off, then you must boil that jar again. This will not be necessary if the water is kept continuously boiling. Put the jars away in a dry place, as a damp cellar melts the suction that holds the cap down. Peas, beets, greens, beans, corn, tomatoes and squash, also meat soups and broth can be canned this way.

It is the best Clinical Therapeutics, according to my mind, that has ever been published. I find many good things that I know to be true and many more that are new to me, but which I do not doubt are fully as true as those I know. If I could have had this work to refer to forty years ago I would have been a better practitioner now. I like the arrangement, for it is a natural and a simple one, and renders the study of the text very easy, especially when aided by the index which you have supplied. I am so well pleased with it that I am sending a copy to my son, who is an Eclectic graduate, and is practicing in the East. You are very positive in your statements, and I like your attitude, for it indicates that you know what you are asserting.

By the same token this product is especially well adapted to the needs of those with a delicate gastric apparatus. Sulpho-Lythin cum Hexamethylenamine "Tablet No. 6." The overloaded liver asserts itself, first of all by increasing the congestion of the middle and inferior turbinals of the nose. That is followed by acute eustachian catarrh and possible otitis media. The intelligent use of this combination prevents the causes of Otitis Media. Is it not just as important to free the nose through the same means when we have Otitis Media purulenta and the membrane-tympani has been freely incised? "Tablet No. 6" does more; it goes still further and liberates the disintegrated Hexamethylenamine at the seat of the inflammation behind the drum. We are receiving clinical reports of the brilliant results following the use of this combination in ERGOAPIOL Smith THE Eclectic Medical College CINCINNATI, O.
