HEAD LICE CURE
Although it seems a -needlessly
Unpleasant subject to discuss,
head lice are found here and there
among children by school nurses
and physicians. Inasmuch as it is
a disease foV which many persons
often want aid, and one that many
have a great deal of hesitancy in
discussing, it may be well to give
a recipe here.
The following wash is used by
many school nurses and should
be repeated two or three nights to
be beneficial :
Mix efual parts of kerosene
and olive oil (sweet oil) and at
night rub the mixture well into
the scalp. Then cover the hair
with a piece of muslin and fasten
about the head securely.
Caution Do not bring the
head in contact with any kind of
flame or the gas jet. '
In the morning wash the scalp
well with soap and hot water and
vinegar. Then use a fine-toothed
comb wet with vinegar to remove
the "nits."
Dry the hair thoroughly after
ward with a towel.
The word" bungalow is an Anglo-Indian
version of the Hindoo'
bangla, "which primarily means'
Bengali, or of Bengal, and is also
applied to a thatched hut.
