Rolls:  Flour, two quarts; sugar, one tablespoonful; one half cup of yeast; one pint of scalded milk, or water if milk is scarce, and a little salt.  Set to rise until light; then knead until hard, and set to rise, and when wanted make in rolls.  Place a piece of butter between the folds and bake in a slow oven.

For Earache.—­A writer in the Druggists’ Circular says:  “The remedy which I here offer has, after repeated trials, never failed to afford almost instant relief.  It is perfectly simple, easy of application, costs but little, and can be procured at any drug store:  Olive oil, 1 ounce; chloroform, 1 drachm.  Mix, and shake well together.  Then pour twenty-five or thirty drops into the ear, and close it up with a piece of raw cotton to exclude the air and retain the mixture.”
