Camphorated Oil, nine drachms:
Mix for a Liniment. For an adult, four drachms of the former, and eight of
the latter, may be used. If the child be young, or if the skin be very tender, the
camphorated oil may be used without the turpentine.
259. Wilson, on Healthy Skin.
260. Rain water ought always to be used in the washing of a child; pump-
water is likely to chap the skin, and to make it both rough and irritable.
261. Sometimes, if the child’s skin be very irritable, the glycerin requires
diluting with water—say, two ounces of glycerin to be mixed in a bottle with four
ounces of spring water—the bottle to be well shaken just before using it.
262. One frequent, if not the most frequent, cause of tape-worm is the eating
of pork, more especially if it be underdone. Underdone pork is the most
unwholesome food that can be eaten, and is the most frequent cause of tape-worm
known. Underdone beef also gives tape-worm; let the meat, therefore, be well and
properly cooked. These facts ought to be borne in mind, as prevention is always
better than cure.

269. The cotton wool here recommended is that purposely made for surgeons,
and is of a superior quality to that in general use.
270. If there be no other lard in the house but lard with salt, the salt may be
readily removed by washing the lard in cold water. Prepared lard—that is to say,
lard without salt—can, at any moment, be procured from the nearest druggist in
the neighborhood.

288. If a girl has an abundance of good nourishment, the school-mistress
must, of course, be remunerated for the necessary and costly expense; and how
this can be done on the paltry sum charged at cheap boarding-schools? It is utterly
impossible! The school-mistress will live, even if the girls be half-starved. And
what are we to expect from poor and insufficient nourishment to a fast-growing
girl, and at the time of life, remember, when she requires an extra quantity of good
sustaining, supporting food? A poor girl, from such treatment, becomes either
consumptive or broken down in constitution, and from which she never recovers,
but drags out a miserable existence. A cheap boarding-school is dear at any price.
289. A horse-hair mattress should always be preferred to a feather bed. It is
not only better for the health, but it improves the figure.

308. Four poppy-heads and four ounces of chamomile blows to be boiled in
four pints of water for half an hour, and then to be strained to make the
fomentation.
309. Cut a piece of bread, about the size of the little finger—without breaking
it into crumb—pour boiling hot milk upon it, cover it over, and let it stand for five
minutes, then apply the soaked bread over the gum-boil, letting it rest between the
cheek and the gum.
310. As long as fashion, instead of common sense, is followed in the making of
both boots and shoes, men and women will as a matter of course suffer from corns.
It has often struck me as singular, when all the professions and trades are so
overstocked, that there should be, as there is in every large town, such a want of
chiropodists (corn-cutters)—of respectable chiropodists—of men who would
charge a fixed sum for every visit the patient may make; for instance, to every
working-man a shilling, and to every gentleman half a crown or five shillings for
each sitting, and not for each corn (which latter system is a most unsatisfactory
way of doing business). I am quite sure that if such a plan were adopted, every
town of any size in the kingdom would employ regularly one chiropodist at least.
However we might dislike some few of the American customs, we may copy them
with advantage in this particular—namely, in having a regular staff of chiropodists
both in civil and in military life.
