For
thread-worms,
which
infest
the
rectum
and
especially
the
lower
portion,
near
the
orifice
of
the
body,
an
injection
of
salt
and
water,
in
the
proportion
of
one
ounce
and
a
half
of
salt
to
a
pint,
or
twenty
ounces
of
water,
or
of
quassia
chips,
will
generally
prove
effectual,
and
obviate
the
necessity
of
administering
medicine.
581.
Emulsion,
Laxative.
Rub
down
an
ounce
of
castor
oil
in
two
drachms
of
mucilage
of
gum
arabic,
add
three
ounces
of
dill
water,
and
a
drachm
of
tincture
of
jalap,
gradually.
Dose,
as
prepared,
the
whole
to
be
taken
while
fasting
in
the
morning.
582.
Emulsion,
Purgative.
Rub
down
six
grains
of
scammony
with
six
drachms
of
white
sugar
in
a
mortar,
and
gradually
add
four
ounces
of
almond
emulsion,
and
two
drops
of
oil
of
cloves.
Dose,
as
prepared,
early
in
the
morning.
583.
To
Prevent
Pitting
after
Small
Pox.
Spread
a
sheet
of
thin
leather
with
the
ointment
of
ammoniacum
with
mercury,
and
cut
out
a
place
for
the
mouth,
eyes,
and
nostrils.
This
forms
what
is
called
a
mask,
and,
after
anointing
the
eyelids
with
a
little
blue
ointment,
it
should
be
applied
to
the
face,
and
allowed
to
remain
for
three
days
for
the
distinct
kind,
and
four
days
for
the
running
variety.
Apply
before
the
spots
fill
with
matter,
although
it
will
answer
sometimes
even
after
they
have
become
pustulous.
It
may
be
applied
to
any
part
in
the
same
way.
584.
Another
Method,
and
one
more
reliable,
is
that
of
touching
every
pustule,
or
poc,
on
the
face
or
bosom
with
a
camel-hair
pencil
dipped
in
a
weak
solution
of
lunar
caustic
(nitrate
of
silver),
made
in
the
proportion
of
two
grains
of
nitrate
of
silver
to
one
ounce
of
distilled
water.
The
time
for
application
is
about
the
seventh
day,
while
each
pustule
is
filled
with
a
limpid
fluid,
or
before
suppuration
takes
place,
the
lotion
arresting
that
action,
and
by
preventing
the
formation
of
matter,
saving
the
skin
from
being
pitted;
a
result
that
follows
from
the
conversion
of
the
adipose
tissue
into
pus.
