If hives still persist, consult doctor. (See [Chapter X].)
Indigestion.
Hot water. Soda mints. Aromatic spirit of ammonia. Bicarbonate of soda (baking soda). Hot applications to the stomach.
Itching.
For itching which affects the whole body, give a bath; apply sulphur ointment.
Sulphur ointment is made by rubbing 2 tbsp. flowers of sulphur into a dessertspoonful of lard.
Lice in Hair (Pediculosis).
Wash hair with kerosene, leaving it on over night; or use tincture of larkspur[O] in the same way.
Perhaps the best remedy is fishberries.[O]
Five cents worth of the berries may be boiled in 1 pint water for ten minutes.
