ELY'S CREAM BALM.
This is a proprietary article, largely advertised in the Eastern states, and meets with rapid sales and is used for catarrh. The directions are to dip the little finger into the balm and insert up the nostrils giving two or three inhalations. It is as follows:
Thymol 3 grains
Bismuth Carbonatis 15 grains
Oil of Wintergreen 2 minims
Vaselin to make 1 ounce
The above amount would cost about 25 cents.
FOR SORE THROAT.
Listerine 2 ounces
Glycerin 1/2 ounce
Pure Water to make 4 ounces
Mix. Use as a gargle.
This will cure any ordinary case, but do not mistake sore throat for diphtheria. The above amount would cost about 25 cents.
