Quotes To Live By…
One of the evils of democracy is, you
have to put up with the man you elect
whether you want him or not.
–Will Rogers
Competence, like truth, beauty and
contact lenses, is in the eye of the
beholder.
–Laurence J. Peter
Very few men are wise by their own
counsel, or learned by their own
teaching. For he that was only taught
by himself had a fool for his master.
–Ben Johnson
Home Remedies For Common Ills
Many people are using home remedies instead of medications for common
health challenges. It may take a bit of experimentation to find the solution that
works best for you, but start with these time-tested home remedies to avoid
using over-the-counter drugs:
Acne
: Increase your intake of Vitamin A with more fruit in the diet
and avoid sleeping on your stomach.
Motion Sickness
: Inhale the ink from newsprint. Make sure it is the
traditional newspapers that get your fingers dirty. If you feel a bit
woozy while traveling, you can also suck on a lemon wedge for relief.
Sore throat
: Some sore throats need a doctor’s attention, but many
swear by the benefits of an Epsom salt bath or gargling with warm
water and sea salt.
Warts
: Tape a small piece of banana peel with the fleshy inner portion
toward the wart at bedtime.
Minor cuts
: Black pepper can be applied to minor cuts to stop the
bleeding. I’ve heard this helps prevent scars as well.
Allergies
: A one-inch square of fresh honeycomb can eliminate the
itchy eyes, wheezing, and runny nose of allergies. Suck out the honey
and chew the wax for five minutes.
Itching from ant bites
: Try applying castor oil, toothpaste, Vicks
VapoRub, or a mixture of baking soda with vinegar.
Itching from poison ivy
: Try rubbing gently with lemon wedges but
be sure to avoid any broken skin or it will sting.
Sunburn:
Take a cool shower to remove heat from the skin. Brew
strong tea with regular teabags, cool, and saturate washcloths with the
tea – then apply to sunburned areas of skin.
