Benton Dudley Implement Booklet (cont.)

Another page in the small booklet.  If you will notice, he even has an antiseptic solution!

From what I can read, it says: Boric acid 2 parts, benzoic acid 0.1 parts, Thymol 0.1 parts, Eucalyptol 0.025 parts, Oil of peppermint 0.05 parts, Oil of (something I can't make out) 0.025 parts, Oil of Thyme 0.01 parts, a pleasant tasting feeble antiseptic. Used as a mouthwash and as an application to wounds and cuts. This is both anantiseptic and disinfective solution.

Top right page states (to regulate the menses) For regulating the menses, take a half teaspoonful of tea of (something I can't make out) before going to bed and continue dash until relief is had. To aid the remedy bathe the feet in hot mustard water. A warm injection of chamomill (?) tea before going to bed will give almost instant relief.

Lockjaw Apply a warm (something) of flaxseed meal saturated with landanum and sugar of lead water to the jaws and suck. {Ok, who is going to try this first!?}

Neuralgia Equal parts of tincture of Belladonna and tincture of (something) root and landanum applied to parts affected several times a day.

(Something) Rash Put 3 teaspoonfuls of common baking soda to a pint of water and sponge or bathe the body thoroughly.
