There
is
not
anything
gained
in
economy
by
having
very
young
and
inexperienced
servants
at
low
wages;
the
cost
of
what
they
break,
waste,
and
destroy,
is
more
than
an
equivalent
for
higher
wages,
setting
aside
comfort
and
respectability.

No
article
in
dress
tarnishes
so
readily
as
black
crape
trimmings,
and
few
things
injure
it
more
than
damp;
therefore,
to
preserve
its
beauty
on
bonnets,
a
lady
in
nice
mourning
should
in
her
evening
walks,
at
all
seasons
of
the
year,
take
as
her
companion
an
old
parasol
to
shade
her
crape.

Domestic
Pharmacopoeia.
In
compiling
this
part
of
our
hints,
we
have
endeavoured
to
supply
that
kind
of
information
which
is
so
often
wanted
in
the
time
of
need,
and
cannot
be
obtained
when
a
medical
man
or
a
druggist
is
not
near.
The
doses
are
all
fixed
for
adults,
unless
otherwise
specified.
The
various
remedies
are
arranged
in
sections,
according
to
their
uses,
as
being
more
easy
for
reference,

Washes

Alum.
Dissolve
half
a
drachm
of
alum
in
eight
ounces
(half
a
pint)
of
water.
Use
as
astringent
wash.
When
twice
as
much
alum
and
only
half
the
quantity
of
water
are
used,
it
acts
as
a
discutient,
but
not
as
an
eye-water.
Note
that
this
and
the
following
washes
are
for
outward
application
only.

Common.
Add
half
an
ounce
of
diluted
acetic
acid
to
three
ounces
of
decoction
of
poppy
heads.
