To carry off poisons daily doses of a pleasant laxative should be taken made of May apple leaves aloe Foot of julap called Dr Pierce's Pleasant Dellets. Hot lemonade should be used freely if attacked by a cough and the patient should be put to bed after a hot mustard and foot bath. To prevent bronchitis or pneumonia and control pain one should obtain Anurie tablets from the drugstore and take one every two hours with lemonade. Anurie tablets flush the bladder and cleanse the kidneys and carry away poisons and uric acids. Broths milk buttermilk ice cream and simple diet should be given regularly to strengthen the system.
