Spongio-piline
costs
about
one
farthing
a
square
inch,
and
may
be
obtained
of
the
chemist.
As
a
fomentation
it
is
most
invaluable,
and
by
moistening
the
material
with
compound
camphor
liniment
or
hartshorn,
it
acts
the
same
as
a
mustard
poultice.

Mustard
Poultices.
These
may
be
made
of
the
mustard
powder
alone,
or
in
combination
with
bread
crumbs,
or
linseed
meal.
When
mustard
only
is
used,
the
powder
should
be
moistened
with
water,
and
the
paste
thus
produced
spread
on
a
piece
of
linen,
and
covered
with
muslin
to
intervene
between
the
mustard
and
the
skin.
When
mixed
with
linseed
the
powder
and
the
meal
may
be
incorporated
before
water
is
added,
or
the
meal
may
be
moistened
and
spread
on
linen
for
application,
and
the
mustard
be
then
strewn
on
the
surface,
more
or
less
thickly
according
to
the
age
of
the
patient.
Rigollot's
Mustard
leaves,
which
can
be
procured
from
any
chemist,
are
now
much
used
in
the
place
of
mustard
poultices.
They
only
require
wetting
before
application,
and
are
both
clean
and
economical.

Bandages.
Bandages
are
strips
of
calico,
linen,
flannel,
muslin,
elastic
webbing,
bunting,
or
some
other
substance,
of
various
lengths,
and
from
one
to
six
inches
wide,
free
from
hems
or
darns,
soft
and
unglazed.
They
are
better
after
they
have
been
washed.
Their
uses
are
to
retain
dressings,
apparatus,
or
parts
of
the
body
in
their
proper
positions,
support
the
soft
parts,
and
maintain
equal
pressure.
