SALT FOR THE THROAT, o - In these days, when diseases of the throat are so universally prevalent, and in so many cases fatal, we feel it our duty to say a word in behalf of a most effectual, if not positive, cure for sore throat. For many years past indeed, we may say, during the whole of a life of more than forty years we have been subject to sore throat, and more par-t.icularl7 par-t.icularl7 to a .dry. hacking .cough, which is not only distressing to ourselves, our-selves, but to our rriends and those with 'whom we are brought into business busi-ness contact. Last fall we were, induced to try what virtue there was in common salt. We commenced by using it three times a day morning, noon, and night. We dissolved a large table spoonful or pure table salt in a'bout a half small tumbler of water. With this we gargle the throat most thoroughly thor-oughly just before mealtime. There" suit has been that during the entire winter we were not only free from coughs and. colds! but .the dry, hacking hack-ing cough has entirely disappeared. We attribute these satisfactory results re-sults solely to the use of salt gargle, and most cordially recommend' a tria of it to those who are subjeofc to din. 1 .....V ''' ..... - . 4 Sertsftijj'ofthe throat.
