Show The Hot Sand Bag, We are all acquainted with the virtues of tho hot-water bag, but many persons are not aware ot the fact that a sand bag Is even better. The way to prepare it is this: Get somo clean, flno sand; dry it thoroughly thorough-ly In a kettlo on the stove; make a bag, about eight inches square, ot flannel; fill it with tho dry sand, sew the opening carefully together and cover the bag with cotton or linen cloth. This will prevent tho sand from sifting out and also enable tho person using It to heat tho bag quickly quick-ly by placing it In the oven or on the top of tho stove. After once using this no further recourse will be had to tho hot-water bottlo or tho brick. |
