internally as much as a teaspoonful Of
vasellne containing a few drops Of
creosote or ten to thirty grains Of ep-

This may be given once per day or

olive oil to the nostrils and IL possible
inject some OF this oil into the nasal
passages by using a small nozzle and
syringe. After injecting or applying
the oil apply pressure over the distend-
ed parts. and thus expel as much OF
the pus as possible. This may be re-
peated twice per day.
