PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and relating to the Manufacture or Treatment of
Paper.
I, EDWARD JOHN LUSBY of 10 Minories, in the City of London, Tobacco
Agent do hereby declare the nature of the said invention to be as follows:-
This my invention relates to improvements in and relating to the manufacture or
treatment of paper and the object of my invention is to impart to the said paper
valuable medicinal and other beneficial properties.
In carrying my invention into practice I propose to treat the pulp from which
the paper is made with certain essential oils or essences hereinafter mentioned.
The oils or essences which I preferably employ are those of the pinus pumilio,
eucalyptus, or the oil of any tarry coniferous or resinous trees and the pulp may be
treated with any of such oils or essences by mixing or by sprinkling or steaming or
by any other suitable method. The said essential oils or essences may according
to my invention be used during other stages of the manufacture of the paper, or
certain appropriate receptacles may be made for containing the said essential oils
and essences and the paper when finished may be placed in such receptacles for the
purpose of being impregnated with the said essential oils or essences.
Paper manufactured or treated in accordance with this invention may be put to
any of its present uses and will in addition act as a good disinfectant. It will also
be found that the odour arising from such paper will, when inhaled act soothingly
on the throat, and cigarette papers manufactured or treated in this manner will, in
smoking act beneficially in diseases of the throat and lungs as the odour from the
oil or essences used will act as a soothing agent.
Dated this Third day of October 1893.

Improvements in and relating to the Manufacture or Treatment of
Paper.
I, EDWARD JOHN LUSBY of 10 Minories, in the City of London, Tobacco
Agent, do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the
same is to be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by
the following statement :-
This my invention relates to improvements in and relating to the manufacture of
paper, and the object of my invention is to impart to the said paper valuable
medicinal and other beneficial properties.
In carrying my invention into practice, I treat the pulp from which the paper is
made with certain essential oils or essences possessing in theinselves valuable
medicinal and other beneficial properties. The oils or essences which I preferably
employ, are creosote and the like, and those of the pinus pumilio, eucalyptus or the
oil of any coniferous or resinous trees, but I do not confine my invention to the use
of these as any other oil or essence possessing similar or like valuable properties,
may be employed; and the pulp may be treated with any of such oils or essences
by mixing the said oils or essences with the pulp or by sprinkling the said oils or
essences on the pulp or by any other method which may be found suitable. The

page_text: said essential oils or essences or any of them, may, according to my invention, be
used during other stages of the manufacture of the paper, and the manner or method
of their employment may be that found most suitable according to the stage of
manufacture of the paper at which they are employed, or certain appropriate
receptacles may be made for the purpose of containing any of the said essential oils
or essences or a compound of the same, and the paper when finished in the ordinary
manner, may be placed in such receptacles for the purpose of being soaked
and afterwards dried, and thereby impregnated with the said essential oils or
essences.
I desire it to be understood by the foregoing description of my invention, that
any kind of paper may be so treated and also that the valuable medicinal antiseptic,
odoriferous and other useful properties of the oils or essences employed will be
retained in the paper manufactured or treated in accordance with my invention. It
will also be found that the odour arising from paper treated with disinfecting oils
or essences will, when inhaled, act soothingly on the throat, and cigarette papers
manufactured or treated in this manner, will, in smoking act beneficially in
diseases of the throat and lungs as the odour from the oils or essences used acts as
a soothing agent.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
Medicinal antiseptic and odoriferous paper manufactured substantially in the
manner and for the purposes set forth and described.
Dated this 3rd day of July 1894.
