Perhaps a few general suggestions will suffice: 



Liver pills for a torpid liver; (not many sportsmen 

 have a bad liver ). 



Pepper and ginger in hot water for cramps and chills; 



Quinine tablets for fevers, aided by a laxative, if 

 needed; Quinine also for colds; 



Antiseptic solution for mouth-wash, sore-throat, and 

 disinfectant ; 



Cold cream for chapped face and hands; 



Iodine for cuts, stings, etc.; 



A quantity of sanitary gauze and absorbent cotton ; 



Ammonia, camphor, valuable for mosquito bites; 



Carbolic acid solution; 



And other articles to be suggested by your physician. 



Many remedies can be made from common things that 

 are included generally in the camp outfit. For instance: 



Sore throat is often cured by using a piece of pork or 

 bacon tied around neck by a dry sock or stocking; 



Burns will be relieved by the application of common 

 baking soda, fat or oil ; 



Scalds may also be relieved with common baking soda 

 applied on a wet rag; 



Toothache can frequently be stopped with warm vine- 

 gar and salt by holding in the mouth; 



For poisoning, warm water often acts as an emetic if 

 mustard and salt are put in it. Tobacco will cause vomiting 

 if swallowed, providing .you have no better remedy. 



Poultices may be made from potato, rice, flaxseed, 

 onion, mustard, bread, etc. 



The Manifold Value of Common Salt: 



Salt placed on the fingers when cleaning game birds 

 and animals, as well as fish, will prevent slipping. 



Salt dashed on a coal fire when broiling steak will pre- 

 vent blazing from the dripping fat. 



Salt thrown into a coal fire which has burned low will 

 revive it.
