Making Smelling-Salts.

A simple rule for smelling-salts is one gill of liquid ammonia, one-quarter of a drachm each of extract of English lavendar and of rosemary, and eight drops each of oil of bergamot and cloves. Mix all these materials together in a bottlo and shako them thoroughly. Eill tho vinaigrette or any small bottle which has a good glass stopper with bits of sponge, and pour in as much of tho .liquid preparation as the sponge will absorb. Invert tho bottle, with the cork out, to soo that it is all absorbed. Cork the bottlo tightly. A bottle' of smelling-salts is very useful to any one who is tiuble te faintness.—[Now York Tribune.
