A PLEASANT REMEDY EOR TOOTHACHE.
Dr T. C. Osborn, in the “ Medical Brief” states that his cook came to him with a swollen, cheek, asking for, something to relieve the toothache, with which she had been suffering all the night. He was on the point of sending her to a dentist, when it occurred to him that there was in tho .house a vial of compound tincture of benzoin. “ After cleansing the decayed tooth,” he says,“l saturated a pledget of cotton lint with the tincture,' and packed it well into the cavit} r hoping this, would suffice for the time, and told her to borne back in two or three hours if she was not relieved, I was turning awa}', when she said it might not ho necessary, ’.perhaps as the pain was already gone. Supposing her faith had a large share to-do-’with the relief, I would not allow myself _to think that the medicine had anything to do with the cure .any more than so much hot water Would Have had. ’ But when I arrived at my office, two other patients were awaiting me with the same atlliction, and I, determined, by way of experiment, to use the same remedy. To my agreeable surprise both patients declared themselves immediately relieved and begged a vial for future use. During the winter a number of similar cases applied and were instantly relieved by the. same treatment, all expressing' much satisfaction with the reared}". In December I told my druggist of the discovery, and re,comcnded him to -:sell it to any person applying for ‘ toothache drops.’ This, he reports, ho has done, and that everyone seems delighted with the medicine.”
