COMPLETE
SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Liniment.
I, JOHN PITT BAYLY, of 18 Fulham Place, Paddington, in the County of
London, Patent Agent, do hereby declare the nature of this invention (a communi-
cation to me from abroad by Stephen Lancaster, of Petrolia, Ontario, Canada,
Gentleman,) and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly
described and ascertained in and by the following statement :-
This invention consists of a new and useful composition of matter to be used as
a liniment for the treatment of sciatica, neuralgia, gout, inflammatory rheumatism,
and other diseases of similar origin and nature.
My composition is made up of the following ingredients combined in about the
proportions stated-viz.: alcohol, one gallon; capsicum, one pound; Prince's pine
(pipsissewa) one pound; camphor-gum, one half-pound; oil of origanum, four
ounces; oil of winter-green, one ounce.
My mode of preparing and mixing the above named composition is as follows:
Thus for each gallon of sixty-five, or there about, overproof alcohol, I take one
pound of the best quality of capsicum, one pound of dried Prince's pine, otherwise
known as pipsissewa, one half-pound of camphor-gum, four ounces of oil of origanum,
and one ounce of oil of water-green, and mix the whole as follows: I first put the
capsicum and Prince's pine into the alcohol and allow the same to remain therein
for about forty-eight hours (more or less) then filter, and to the liquid thus obtained
I add the above named ingredients of the composition, and as soon as the gum and
oil are fully dissolved and combined with said liquid the whole is bottled up tightly
ready for use.
To use the liniment the same is applied externally to the soles of the feet of the
patient, and to the part or parts affected by friction or rubbing for such length of
time as may be necessary, or until relief is obtained.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this my said
invention, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:
The herein described composition of matter to be used as a liniment for the

page_text: treatment of sciatica and other diseases, the same being a tincture in alcohol. of
capsicum, Prince's pine, otherwise known as pipsissewa, and camphor-gum, with the
oils of origanum and winter-green, substantially in the proportions specified.
