                                Apple Salve

         Fry 1 large or 2 small sour apples in 1 cup lard,
         leaving peelings on apples. Add a piece of beeswax the
         size of a hulled walnut. Let the wax melt and then
         strain the mixture and pour the liquid into a receptacle
         with a lid. This is especially good for burns and is
         healing to all wounds that do not require a treatment to
         counteract poisons.

                                Blackheads Tan and Freckles

         Slice very thin 6 lemons. Pour into a jar 1 pound Epsom
         salts and put the lemon in and mix well. Seal up jar and
         let a liquid form. Use this to rub on the face at night
         about once a week. In the morning wash off with clear
         warm water, and follow with a rub with soap water,
         rubbing quite hard. If used once a week, girls need not
         be bothered with pimples, blackheads or tan.

                                Brown Spots on Hands

         If there are brown spots on the hands, a saturated
         solution of hyposulphite of soda may be used. Use it
         freely, it is not always effective.

                                Freckles

         Mild cases may be helped by using borax dissolved in
         rose water, applying several times a day. Another method
         is to dampen the finger tips, dip in powdered saltpeter
         and apply directly to the freckles. Repeat until they
         disappear. Again to cover the face with almond paste
         and then pat lemon juice into the skin will remove some
         freckles. Keep out of the sun and hot wind and do not go
         into the sun when the face, hands and arms are wet.

                                Warts

         Anoint several times a day with spirits of camphor. In a
         few weeks the warts will be gone and without any marks
         remaining.

                                Dandruff

         A dandruff remedy which has been found most effective
         is: Sixty grains of sulphur mixed with one ounce of
         vaseline and applied every other night to the scalp,
         with massage. Where there is dandruff it is well to wash
         the hair twice a week at first, gradually lengthening
         the time to every ten days or two weeks.

                                Frosted Feet

         The best thing for frosted feet is to anoint the the
         parts with sweet spirits of nitre. A small amount
         purchased from the druggist will cure all the frosted
         feet one person can have.
