Corns
(1).
Any
remedy
for
these
painful
growths,
to
be
effectual,
must
include
removal
of
the
usual
cause--pressure
by
tight
or
ill-fitting
boots.
Strong
acetic
acid
may
be
used,
but
great
care
is
necessary
in
applying
it,
to
avoid
burning
the
adjacent
parts.
Soft
corns
may
be
cured
by
extract
of
lead.

Corns
(2).
A
very
good
remedy
for
corns
is
that
known
as
"Celandine,"
which
is
harmless
and
easily
applied.
Any
chemist
will
supply
it.

To
Cure
Stings
of
Bees
and
Wasps.
The
sting
of
a
bee
is
generally
more
virulent
than
that
of
a
wasp,
and
with
some
people
attended
with
very
violent
effects.
The
sting
of
a
bee
is
barbed
at
the
end,
and
is
consequently
always
left
in
the
wound;
that
of
a
wasp
is
pointed
only,
so
that
the
latter
insect
can
sting
more
than
once,
which
a
bee
cannot
do.
When
stung
by
a
bee,
let
the
sting
be
instantly
pulled
out;
for
the
longer
it
remains
in
the
wound,
the
deeper
it
will
pierce,
owing
to
its
peculiar
form,
and
emit
more
of
the
poison.
The
sting
is
hollow,
and
the
poison
flows
through
it,
which
is
the
sole
cause
of
the
pain
and
inflammation.
The
pulling
out
of
the
sting
should
he
done
carefully,
and
with
a
steady
hand;
for
if
any
part
of
it
breaks
in,
all
remedies
then,
in
a
great,
measure,
will
be
ineffectual.
When
the
sting
is
extracted,
suck
the
wounded
part,
if
possible,
and
very
little
inflammation,
if
any,
will
ensue.
If
hartshorn
drops
are
immediately
afterwards
rubbed
on
the
part,
the
cure
will
be
more
complete.
