MATERIA MEDICA
Broadly speaking, materia med
ica treats of the sources of drugs,
physical and chemical properties,
and physiological actions. But In
the present instance, some aspects
will be omitted.
Chinkat: roots of parsely was
boiled and used as a food; when
powdered, was used as hot poul
tices for swellings.
Atunat: oxys or wood sorrel,
powdered and boiled was used as
an enemic; was also occasionally
used as a laxative.
Chavyhkat, lesser celandine: a
decoction made from its roots was
considered an excellent purgative;
when eaten raw, it is beneficial in
constipation, which follows as a
consequence from the immoderate
uses of malina (salmon berries, or
salmon berry wine.)
Taganak, bitter kutagovnik: this
root is heated over hot rocks and
is applied to swellings.

Continually working tor the ad
vancement of domestic electric re
frigeration, engineers of Frigidaire
Corporation have made it possible
for this General Motors subsidiary
this year to present a household
refrigerator with many refinements
and improvements, according to an
announcement by the local repre
sentative. Economy, efficiency and
beauty have been the guiding stars
of these engineers and as a result
the Frigidaire of today operates at
much lower cost, freezes more ioe
cubes faster, has an interior and
exterior finish of durable white
porcelain-on-steel and provides
more shelf space than before.
