Change of Life, Excessive Flowing, An Old Tried Remedy for

"One ounce of nutmeg, grated, one pint Jamaica rum. Mix well and shake before taking.
Dose:-- One teaspoonful three times a day as long as necessary." I tried this remedy upon the advice of a physician at the time of "change of life" and was very soon relieved, so I heartily recommend it.
