Treatment. — Kill them by washing the body well with 

 lukewarm water and soap, dry by rubbing him with cloths, 

 and apply the following wash: 



Creoline 2 ounces or 8 dessertspoonfuls. 



Rain Water 1 quart. 



Shake well and apply all over the body every third day 

 by rubbing it well into the skin. Continue this treatment 

 until all the lice are killed. Another very good remedy is a 

 plug of "black-strap" chewing tobacco cut up and steeped in 

 a gallon of rain water. Rub this solution well all over the 

 body every third day until the lice are killed.
