Take senna leaves, an ounce and a half, ginger, sliced, 1 dram, boiling water, 1 pint. Macerate for an hour, and strain the liquor. Two or three tea-spoonsful of Epsom salts dissolved in a wine-glassful of warm water, with 3 table-spoonsful of the above infusion of senna, and a tea-spoonful of tincture of senna, or cardamoms, will act as a mild aperient. It should be taken early in the morning, and a plentiful supply of tea, afterwards, at breakfast. MILD PURGATIVE FOR INFANTS. Take of manna, 1 oz. mucilage of gum arabic, oil of almonds, syrup of lemons, each 2 drams. Of this mixture give a tea-spoonful to a child at bed-time. CAMPHOR MIXTURE. Take of camphor, 1 dram, rectified spirit of wine, ten drops, double-refined sugar, half an ounce, boiling distilled water, one pint. Rub the camphor first with the spirit of wine, then with the sugar; lastly, add the water by degrees, and strain the mixture. In the common form of camphor emulsion the union is effected, by triturating the camphor with a few almonds, the unctuous quality of which serves in a considerable degree to cover the pungency of the camphor without diminishing its activity. Camphor under the present form, as well as that of emulsion, is very useful in _fevers_, taken to the extent of a table-spoonful every three or four hours. CHALK MIXTURE. Take of prepared chalk, 1 oz. refined sugar, ½ an oz. mucilage of gum arabic, 2 oz. Rub them together and then add by degrees, water, 2 pints, spirituous cinnamon-water, 2 ounces. This is a very elegant form of exhibiting chalk, and is a useful remedy in diseases arising from or accompanied with _acidity in the stomach_, &c. It is frequently employed in _diarrhœa_ proceeding from that cause. TO RELIEVE FAINTING AND OTHER FITS. The person ought to be immediately carried into the open air, and the temples should be rubbed with strong vinegar and brandy, and volatile salts or spirits held to the nose. The patient should then be laid on the back with the head low, and have a little wine or other cordial poured into the mouth. If subject to hysteric fits, castor or assafœtida should be applied to the nose, or burnt feathers, horn, or leather. TO RELIEVE SUDDEN BLEEDING. Dry lint put up the nostrils, pledgets of lint dipped in spirits, or weak solution of blue vitriol, or from ten to twenty drops of oil of turpentine taken in water, generally stop discharges of blood.
