SORE THROATS.
At this season of the year, when sore throat is so much complained of, it would appear almost impossible to name enough liniments or gargles, to one or both of which remedies the unfortunate sufferer is sure to fly. A simple gargie may be made by adding fifteen drops of refined carbolic to a quart of water. Remember to shake thoroughly before using, otherwise it will be useless, and gargle four or five times a day. In case of swollen tonsils, a teaspoonful of powdered tannin dissolved iu s. tumbler of water forms an excellent gargle, which should be used every two hours. A gargle of permanganate of potash, not too strong, is also excellent for use in cases of mild sore throat. There are many lotions which will also be found invaluable.
