VARIOUS USES OF SALT. Os all the condimeuts known to modern 'cookery,salt is the mo9t necessary and universally used, says a writer in the Nation al Food Magazine. But indis pensable’as 9alt injthe kitchen, it is equally useful in the sick room, laundry and forgeueral household purposes: in fact,‘from garret to cellar, so to speak, is an ever-ready and resourceful adjunct to good house-keeping. A weak solution of salt and warm good remedy for colds in the head, sore throat or tender gums, used either as a spray, gargle or mouth wash; it is also a good and cheap dentifrice For bleeding of the lungs it is very efficacious, a large table spoonful in a glass of cold water “to be taken freely.” For intestinal disturbances salt ; is an excellent addition to the j enema, as it both cleanses and acts as a tonic. A tablespoonful of salt in a glass of hot water, sipped on an empty stomach, is a cure for con stipation. To break the acidity in cran berries add a pinch of salt. Some claim that a pinch of salt added to boiled coffee improves its aroma. Hot salt bags relieye neuralgia, earache and toothache,and clothes wrung out of salt water should be applied to all sprains and strain ed muscles. Salt water foot baths, hot or coid, are helpful for swol len or tired feet, and children with weak backs and ankles should have a; gentle salt water rub once a day. Every well-equipped laundry should have a jar of salt among its assets. Immerse all handker chiefs and bloody clothes in cold salt-water before washing; it eli minates all unpleasant features and stains. Put a little salt in the starch to give it gloss. Salt added to the water in which color ed clothes are washed holds the color. If salt is put in the rins ing water, clothes do not freeze so readily when hung out in winter. Salt on a piece of paper makes a good polish for flat-irons. To remove rust-spots wet with vinegar, cover with salt and ex pose to the sun ; repeat until the stains are drawn out. Salt with vinegar is good to clean brass, bottles and stained cruets. Al ways add salt to the water kept in cuspidors. Coarse salt moistened with am monia is spread on the carpet be fore sweeping will both clean it and restore its colors. Use salt-water to wash matting, and put salt, in water to wash win dows in winter to prevent them from becoming frosty. If food has been spilled in the oven cover with salt at once to prevent unpleasant odor. When the fire is low a little salt, strewn over embers often revives it. Salt is used to thaw frozen water pipes, and if sprinkled on the door-steps and outer stairs when covered with ice they are easily keptcleau. In the tall strew salt on the flow er beds after the bulbs and flow ers are taken up, this destroyes the seeds and roots of the crop of weeds, during the winter salt dis integrates and when the beds are dug up it has some value as a i fertilizer. By this list you will see the im portance of this simple mineral and the necessity of always keep ing the salt cellar well filled.—Ex- A wisely conducted newspaper is like a banquet says an exchange.
