flaxseed tea, for sore throat. Pour half a pint of boiling water upon a table- spoonful of whole flaxseed, and stir it tip for a few minutes. Then let it stand covered for a few minutes more ; but do not put it on the fire to boil, as that would bring out the oil (linseed oil), which is not good to drink. What is wanted in the tea is only the mucilage of the seeds. Lemon-juice and sugar
