The formula la the following: "Glycerine two ounces; Con centrated oil of pine one-half ounce; oughly; use lb tablespoon doses every four hours." The Ingredients are ob tainable from any good prescription, druggist and can easily be mixed at home Tbe Concentrated oil of pine Is 'a comparatively new product, but was welcomed by physicians on account of Ita being soluble, a quality long sought.
