PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT.

Nasal Catarrah. The most yommon cause of nasal catarrh is chronic inflammation of the nasal mucous membrane. Undoubtedly it affects the general health and absorbs certain nutriment that should go to other parts of the body. Moreover, ft affects the other nerves that lie Im its region. Simple remedies are often more efficacious than pretentious ones. Try this: Obtain some boracic acid powder and an ordi- > nary glass nasal douche, i’ut a teaspoonful of the powder into a pint of hot water. When dissolved thoroughly douche the nose. After this is done sniff a little of the powder Itself up each nostril. This should be done unremittingly night and morning and it will not be long before the wonderful healing powers of the boracic powder will be felt. Only—one must persevere.
