STAGGERS, CONVULSIONS, &C. «8 



Treatment where Baits or Worms are the Cause^ 



Glauber salts, four ounces ; 

 Coarse sugar, two table-spoons full : 

 Dissolve them in a quart of rue-tea, and when 



new.milk warm, add tincture of opium, 



half an ounce; 

 And give it iinmediately. 



This drink and ball will clear the stomach of 

 the indigested matter with which it is burdened. 

 If the drink' be given in the morning, it generally 

 works briskly, both by stool and urine before 

 night ; if it fails in that space of time, the clys- 

 ter (No. 17, p. 31) must be administered, after 

 the rectum has been emptied with a small 

 hand. 



If worms or botts be the cause of the com- 

 plaint (which may easily be discovered in the 

 dung, during the operation of the physic), treat 

 him as directed in the section of worms (infra). 

 But if he is not relieved by the application of the 

 above ball, and drink, and continues convulsed,/
