Eliminate ear mites. All it takes is a
few drops of Wesson Corn
Oil in your cat's ear... massage it in, then
clean with a cotton ball.
Repeat daily for
3 days. The oil soothes the cat's skin, smothers
the mites, and
accelerates healing.

Kills fleas instantly... Dawn Dishwashing
Liquid does the trick.
Add a few drops to your dog's bath and shampoo
the animal thoroughly.
Rinse well to avoid skin irritations. Good-bye
fleas.

Rainy day cure for dog odor: Next time
your dog comes in from
the rain, simply wipe down the animal with Bounce
or any dryer sheet,
instantly making your dog smell springtime fresh.


Did you know that drinking two glasses of
Gatorade can relieve
headache pain almost immediately-without the
unpleasant side effects
caused by traditional pain relievers?

Did you know that Colgate Toothpaste makes
an excellent salve for
burns?

Before you head to the drugstore for a
high-priced inhaler
filled with mysterious chemicals, try chewing on
a couple of curiously
strong Altoids peppermints. They'll clear up your
stuffed nose.

Achy muscles from a bout of the flu? Mix
1 tablespoon
horseradish in 1 cup of olive oil. Let the
mixture sit for 30 minutes,
then apply it as a massage oil for instant relief
for aching muscles.

Sore throat? Just mix 1/4 cup of vinegar
with 1/4 cup of honey
and take
1 tablespoon six times a day . The vinegar kills
the bacteria.

Cure urinary tract infections with
Alka-Seltzer. Just dissolve
two tablets in a glass of water and drink it at
the onset of the
symptoms.
Alka-Seltzer begins eliminating urinary tract
infections almost
instantly-even though the product was never been
advertised for this
use.

Honey remedy for skin blemishes... cover
the blemish with a dab
of honey and place a Band-Aid over it. Honey
kills the bacteria, keeps
the skin sterile, and speeds healing. Works
overnight.

Listerine therapy for toenail fungus: Get
rid of unsightly
toenail fungus by soaking your toes in Listerine
M outhwash. The
powerful antiseptic leaves your toenails looking
healthy again.

Easy eyeglass protection... to prevent the
screws in eyeglasses
from loosening, apply a small drop of Maybelline
Crystal Clear Nail
Polish to the threads of the screws before
tightening them.

Cleaning liquid that doubles as bug
killer... if menacing bees,
wasps, hornets, or yellow jackets get in your
home and you can't find
the insecticide, try a spray of Formula 409.
Insects drop to the ground
instantly.

Smart splinter remover: Just pour a drop
of Elmer's Glue-All
over the splinter, let dry, and peel the dried
glue off the skin. The
splinter sticks to the dried glue.

Hunt's Tomato Paste boil cure... cover
the boil with Hunt's
Tomato Paste as a compress. The acids from the
tomatoes soothe the pain
and bring the boil to a head.

Balm for broken blisters... to disinfect
a broken blister, dab
on a few drops of Listerine , a powerful
antiseptic.

Vinegar to heal bruises... soak a cotton
ball in white vinegar
and apply it to the bruise for 1 hour. The
vinegar reduces the blueness
and speeds up the healing process.

Quaker Oats for fast pain relief... it's
not for breakfast any
more! Mix
2 cups of Quaker Oats and 1 cup of water in a
bowl and warm in the
microwave for
1 minute, cool slightly, and apply the mixture to
your hands for
soothing relief from arthritis pain.
