corres])()iitHng  to  a  teaspoonful  of  ChiircliilFs  syrup  of  tlie  hypoplios- 
phites. 
VI.  Emulsion  of  Codliver  Oil  with  Phosphate  of  Lime.  This  dif- 
fers from  the  simple  emulsion  in  that  two  hundred  and  fifty-six  grains 
of  phosphate  of  calcium  are  dissolved  in  the  water  by  the  aid  of  one 
hundred  and  twenty-eight  grains  of  hydrochloric  acid ;  ^  each  table- 
spoonful  containing  eight  grains  of  the  phosphate  held  in  pleasantly- 
acid  solution. 
VII.  Emulsion  of  Codliver  Oil  tcith  Phosphate  of  Lime  and  Soda. 
— This  differs  from  the  simple  emulsion  in  that  two  hundred  and  fifty- 
six  grains  of  phosphate  of  calcium  and  sixty-four  grains  of  phos])hate 
of  sodium  are  dissolved  in  the  water  acidulated  with  one  hundred  and 
twenty-eight  grains  of  hydrochloric  acid ;  each  tablespoonful  contain- 
ing eight  grains  of  the  calcium  and  two  grains  of  the  sodium  salt. 
VIII.  Emulsion  of  Codliver  Oil  with  Lactophospliate  of  Lime. 
This  differs  from  the  simple  emulsion  in  that  two  hundred  and  fifty- 
six  grains  of  lactate  of  calcium  dissolved  in  two  fluidounces  of  diluted 
phosphoric  acid  are  substituted  for  two  fluidounces  of  the  water,  each 
tablespoonful  containing  eight  grains  of  lactate  of  lime  or  about  ten 
grains  of  lactophospliate. 
IX.  Emulsion  of  Codliver  Oil  with  Wild-cherry  Bark.  This  differs 
from  the  simple  emulsion  in  that  the  oil  of  wintergreen  is  replaced 
by  eight  drops  of  oil  of  bitter  almonds,  and  in  that  one  fluidounce  of 
the  fluid  extract  of  wild-cherry  bark  is  substituted  for  one  fluidounce 
of  the  water  ;  each  tablespoonful  containing  fifteen  minims  of  the 
fluid  extract  and  one-fourth  of  a  drop  of  oil  of  bitter  almonds. 
Other  combinations  of  codliver  oil  w^ith  different  medicinal  agents 
may  be  effected  in  the  same  way  as  pointed  out  in  the  above,  or  the 
proportions  of  salts  may  be  varied  to  suit  particular  cases.  The  process 
for  the  concentrated  emulsion  also  may  be  applied  to  the  emulsification 
of  other  oils,  as,  for  instance,  in  the  following : 
X.  Emidsion  of  Castor  Oil.  Take  of  castor  oil  four  (4)  troy  ounces ; 
powdered  gum  arable,  one  (1)  troyounce ;  distilled  water,  one  and 
one  half  troyounce ;  syrup,  cinnamon  water,  of  each  three  (3) 
fluidounces;  spirit  of  cinnamon,  twelve  (12)  minims.  Emulsify  the 
oil  with  the  gum  and  distilled  water  as  directed  under  I,  then  add  the 
^  The  use  of  hydrochloric  acid  instead  of  phosphoric  acid  is  preferred, 
because  tlie  large  quantity  of  the  latter  required  would  make  the  prepara- 
tion unpleasantly  sour.
