Diptheria and Croup Cure
We are indebted to Mr T. R. Chamberlain for the • following :— Take eqtial parts, say two tablespoonfuls of turpentine and liquid of tar, jut them into a tin pan or cup and set fire to the mixture, taking care to have a large pan under it as a safe guard against fire. A dense recinous smoke arises, making the room dark, and the patient immediately seems to experience relief ; the choaking and the rattle stop ; the patient falls, into a slumber and seems to inhale the smoke with, pleasure, and in the course of three days the patient entirely recovers.
