Treatment for Obstinate Freckles.

Try the elder flower ointment, which was recommended by a physician. It, of course, does not suit all ;oirplexions, but all cosmetics must be adapted to the character of the skin, like- any other remedy: Elder flower Dlntment, 1 ounce; sulphate of zinc, 20 grains. Mix well and rub into the affected skin at night. In the morning wash the cerate off with soap and soft water and afterward apply a lotion, thus composed: Infusion of roses, half pint; citric acid, 30 grains. All local discolorations, the physician affirms, will disappear under this treatment, or if the freckles do not entirely yield, they will at least be greatly ameliorated.
