Snake and Insect Bites.

If stung or bitten by an insect, snake or animal, apply spirits of hartshorn very freely with a soft rag, because it is ono of the strongest alkalis, and is familiar to most persons. The substance which causes the so-called poisor. from bites or stings is, as far as is ascertained, generally acid. Hence the hartshorn antagonizes it in proportion to the promptitude with which it is applied. If no hartshorn is at hand, pour a cup of hot water on a cup of cooking soda or saleratus, or even the wood just from the stove or fire-place, because all these are strong alkalis, and hartshorn is only best because it is tlio strongest.
