rame, and fix it in that position by means of tacks
or twine. Then apply the Isinglass, after it has been rendered liquid
by a gentle heat, to the silk with a brush of fine hair (badger's is
the best). As soon as this coating is dried, which will not be long,
apply a second, and afterward, if the article is to be very superior, a
third. When the whole is dry, cover it with two or three coatings of
the Balsam of Peru. This is the genuine court plaster. It is pliable
and never breaks, which is far from being the case with spurious
articles sold under the same name.

A CERTAIN CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS.--Sulphate of Iron five grains, Magnesia
ten grains, Peppermint water eleven drachms, Spirits of Nutmeg, one
drachm, twice a day. This preparation acts as a tonic and stimulant,
and so partially supplies the place of the accustomed liquor, and
prevents that absolute physical and mental prostration that follows a
sudden breaking off from the use of stimulating drinks.

FRENCH LUSTRAL.--Take Castor Oil three ozs., Alcohol one and one-half
ozs., Ammonia one-sixteenth of an oz., well shaken and mixed together;
perfume to suit--Bergamont or any other perfume. Splendid hair
dressing. Three ounce bottles, twenty-five cents.

LUNG MEDICINE.--Take Black Cohosh one-half oz., Lobelia one-fourth oz.,
Canker root three-fourths oz., Blackberry Root three-fourths of an oz.,
Sarsaparilla one oz., Pleurisy Root one-half oz., steeped in three
pints of water. Dose, one tablespoonful three times a day, before
eating. Sure cure for spitting blood.

TOOTHACHE DROPS.--Four ounces pulverized Alum, fourteen ozs. Sweet
Spirits of Nitre. Put up in one oz. bottles. Retails readily at 25
cents per bottle. This is the most effective remedy for toothache that
was ever discovered, and is a fortune to any one who will push its
sale. It sells at every house.

MAGNETIC TOOTHACHE DROPS.--Take equal parts of Camphor, Sulphuric
Ether, Ammonia, Laudanum, Tincture of Cayenne, and one-eighth part of
Oil of Cloves. Mix well together. Saturate with the liquid a small
piece of cotton, and apply to the cavity of the diseased tooth, and the
pain will cease immediately. Put up in long drachm bottles. Retail at
25 cents. This is a very salable preparation, and affords a large
profit to the manufacturer.

GREEN MOUNTAIN SALVE.--Take one pound Beeswax, one pound of soft
Butter, and one and one-half pounds soft Turpentine, twelve ounces
Balsam Fir. Melt and strain. Use to
