Do not poultice an eye In any cir
cumstances whatever. Binding a wet
application over an eye for several
hours must damage that eye, the as

personal experience in this to the con-
trary Notwithstanding. The failure
to ~aggravate an existing trouble by
binding a moist application owe an
infiamed eye, which application is
supposed to remain for an entire
night, can only be explained by the
s~upposition that a guardian angel
has watched over that misguided
case and has displaced the poultice
before it had got in its fine work.
All oculists condemn the poultice
absolutely, in every shape and in
every form. Tea leaves, bread and
milk, raw oysters, scraped beef.

full or not in his race for Alderman,
