There is no necessity of death re-
sulting from either Group or diphthe-
ria, especially with the young. il the
following recipe is applied in time :
spread common tar on a muslin strip
as you would prepare plaster, and
wrap il around the neck and glands Of
the patient. Renew once or twice a
day. and the patients life is assured.
