Household Remedies. ,

In the early days, many herbs and some vegetables were considered excellent . remedies to

cure diseases and heal bruises and wounds. Later

they were supplanted by patent medicines and drugs readily obtainable in stores. With the back

to nature movement, of recent years and the em

phasis placed on fresh air and sanitation, some of the old time remedies again have appeared. The onion has always been considered vegetable with curing powers. According to the Los Angeles Times, scientists .have discovered that the faith placed in onions years ago was not misplaced,, and that the vegetable really possesses curative properties. Says the Times : ; To ;be ure the men of science have been inclined to scout, the f idea that the onion family is particularly gifted with ; medicinal : qualities of any kind; but recently "some of these learned men have made: the discovery, that garlic, the small but extremely strong member of the onion family, possesses great virtues as a surgical dressing. The discovery was niade during the present war, and garlic juice is now used as a regular"dressing for a certain class of wounds in at least one of the large hospitals. The wounds which seem to respond most readily to treatment with garlic are those in which the ordinary surgical measures have failed and in which suppuration is taking place. These wounds are washed thoroughly every 12 hours with a lotion of garlic juice and distilled water, in a strength of one part juice to three parts water. When this is done, "a noticeable improvement occurs in 24 hours and a decided improvement within 48 hours. During this period of time the purulent discharge not only "'became markedly diminished, but also the pain and surrounding inflammation were either much relieved or had disappeared." - .' ' "t Profiting by the experience of the army sur

geons the physicians in civil hospitals have been

experimenting: with garlic juice in treating vari

ous, conditions. 'The kind of wounds treated

says a recent report, ! "have been- recent dirty wounds, in which suppuration had not occurred ; foul, lacerated suppurating wounds of the face, scalp, thigh, etc; extensive superficial burns of the face, scalp, chest, limbs and abdomen in children; suppurating bursae about the knee; foul ulcers of the leg; carbuncle, and one particularly interesting case of moist gangrene of the leg in an old woman of 71 years.'

Looking Back. 1 The opening days of a year recall days that are gone forever; opportunities that never again will come; words that cannot be recalled; deeds

that are irrevocable ; hatreds whose scars cannot

be healed; joys that cannot be lived over again; successes won once and forever ; failures that cannot be erased; stepping stones that never again will be encountered; good deeds whose influence will not stop; memories that will please the heart or haunt it until death ends this earthly career. How solemn the thought that time cannot be

recalled ! One day spent in wicked designs, in

idleness, or in plotting mischief never can be made up or rectified. The year's record is a closed book whose seal cannot be broken, whose contents are indictments or commendations of our careers. How urgent the plea thatjwe utilize every minute of time in doing good, developing our talents, improving our minds and souls.

Looking Forward.

A new year opens a new chapter in life. The past is gone, added to eternity. Ahead of us stretches a new span of time. In the book of life,

new pages, unsullied and unmarred, give us op

portunity to write with bold upright characters

new thoughts, words and deeds of rectitude and

progress, or to scrawl messy, crooked, dirty let ters of falsehood, dishonesty and corruption.

Time is not a tyrant dictating what we are to

write and how. That is optional with us, but time, however, does not permit the change or alteration of record when December 31 arrives.

ine new year ougm inspire every one to a

high resolve of doing what is right for right's

sake, of putting principle above any sordid and

mean consideration, and of working on a scroll that will not put us to shame when the year is ended.

A REMINISCENCE. In 1845, my father purchased a mill property south of. this city, and removed his : family; from Centerville. We had never lived In the country, and everything In the valley was full of interest. It was in the fall-when the maple and oak trees were brilliant in scarlet and gold. The birds were migrating and they stopped to rest for a day or two in the large sycamores that overhung the river. The wild grape vines that clung to the bushes were loaded with fruit, the red and black haws were ripe, the persimmons and paw-paws had been touched with the frost and were ready for the table; the hickory nuts and black walunts covered the ground in the morning. We were delighted with our new home, and my father named it Happy Valley. .Near the barn was a group of ten or a dozen maple trees. In the spring of 1846 we asked my father to have the man of all work tap the trees and help us make maple syrup; ' The man drove two forked stakes in the ground and placed a green limb across them to support a ten gallon Iron kettle, for boiling the sap. The trees were bored and "spiles" or spouts, driven in' to carry the sap to the buckets. The man brought a back log each morning which was placed under the kettle to keep the fire from blowing away, then lighter wood was added . frequently. Tto children gathered driftwood from the river bank and collected the sap

from the buckets. An Invalid brother

filled the kettle and replenished the fire. There was "good sugar making

weather" for a week, which means that the sun shone. by day and the

groundj frjtee elightljrrat night,.Jn the

morning everything was covered with

hoar frost. We were disappointed in

iinamg the sap less sweet than we

expected. Farmers told us a barrel of sap would be required to make one gallon of syrup. We made the best maple syrup I have ever seen, and no words can express the pleasure we

naa while making it. Our dog, Toby, enjoyed the sport as much as we did. He often started a chipmunk from a pile of. brush and when, it ran along the fence Tobyr&ced after it barking with all his might. The squirrel spread his tail like a sail, and the wind soon

carried him out of reach. Field mice

visited the camp at night leaving

their tracks in the white ashes. Other small creatures peeped out to see what

we were doing. By the last of January the leaves were so far developed the sap would not make var, pnd there was no more cold weather that winter. An early spring followed. Mrs. Sarah A. Wrigley.
