People don't often look back on the early 1900's for advice, but what if we could actually learn something from the Lost Generation?
通常人們不會為了求取生活妙方而去回顧20世紀(jì)初的年代，不過如果那個“垮掉的一代”真的能對我們有所助益呢？

The New York Public Library has digitized 100 "how to do it" cards found in cigarette boxes over 100 years ago, and the tips they give are so practical that millennials reading this might want to take notes.
紐約公共圖書館將一組100多年前的香煙盒上的“生活妙招”卡片進(jìn)行了數(shù)字化處理，這些卡片上的小貼士實在太實用了，二十一世紀(jì)的我們看到了也會多加留意！

How to Extract a Splinter
如何拔出小刺

A splinter embedded in the hand is often very painful to extract.
手上扎了一根小刺，總是很難拔出來。

A good way to accomplish this is to fill a wide-mouthed bottle with hot water neary to the brim, and press affected part of hand tightly against mouth of bottle.
不過有一種很好的辦法可以解決問題——將一個寬口的瓶子里倒入熱水，水接近瓶口，將手上手上的部位緊緊按壓在瓶口處。

The suction will pull down the flesh, and steam will soon soon draw out the splinter.
瓶中的吸力會把你的手心向下吸，瓶中的蒸汽很快就能把刺拔出來了！
