their teeth will grow without pain to them.

wine, and you will soon find relief. The cloves may be put upon the bread.
TO HEAL BURNS.
Pound or press the juice of male fern, and put it on the burnt spots and
they will heal very fast. Better yet, however, if you smear the above juice
upon a rag, and put it on like a plaster.

the morning, and before eating anything else. This is also good for the

pain.
