Robert Kemp Philp
827
2392.
Mixture
for
Rheumatic
Gout
or
Acute
Rheumatism.
Half
an
ounce
of
nitre
(saltpetre),
half
an
ounce
of
sulphur,
half
an
ounce
of
flour
of
mustard,
half
an
ounce
of
Turkey
rhubarb,
quarter
of
an
ounce
of
powdered
gum
guaiacum.
A
teaspoonful
to
be
taken
in
a
wineglassful
of
cold
water,
every
other
night
for
three
nights,
and
omit
three
nights.
The
water
should
have
been
well
boiled.
2393.
To
Arrest
Bleeding
at
the
Nose.
Introduce,
by
means
of
a
probe,
a
small
piece
of
lint
or
soft
cotton,
previously
dipped
into
some
mild
styptic,
as
a
solution
of
alum,
Friar's
balsam,
solution
of
blue
stone,
or
even
cold
water.
This
will
generally
succeed;
but
should
it
not,
cold
water
may
be
snuffed
up
the
nostrils.
Should
the
bleeding
be
very
profuse,
medical
advice
should
be
procured.
In
cases
of
hæmorrhage
of
a
severe
character,
Ruspini's
styptic
is
most
beneficial,
and
may
be
recommended.
2394.
Biting
the
Nails.
This
is
a
habit
that
should
be
immediately
corrected
in
children,
as,
if
persisted
in
for
any
length
of
time,
it
permanently
deforms
the
nails.
Dipping
the
finger-ends
in
some
bitter
tincture
will
generally
prevent
children
from
putting
them
into
their
mouth;
but
if
this
fails,
as
it
sometimes
will,
each
finger-end
ought
to
be
encased
in
a
stall
until
the
propensity
is
eradicated.
2395.
To
Prevent
Galling
in
Invalids.
The
white
of
an
egg
beaten
to
a
strong
froth;
then
drop
in
gradually,
whilst
you
are
beating,
two
teaspoonfuls
of
spirits
of
wine;
put
it
into
a
bottle,
and
apply
occasionally
with
a
feather.
