HOW TO IIOCI YOUR CHIS&EJ'
If a bath iu hot water onu Waiter containing salt or strong loap
ia taken within a few bout* after
exposure in shrubbery and weeds
infested with chiggers or red bugs,
no ill effects will be experienced.
After a long exposure, however, a
bath has practically no effect aud
direct remedies are necessary. After irritation hats set iu aad small
red *pote appear, tha application
of a moderate ttrong solution of
ammonia it recommended by tbe
United State* Department of Agriculture, A supersaturated solo
tion of bicarbonate of soda or
common cooking soda or sal.rstus
will afford relief.
