2. Camphor 8 grains
3. Oil of Cloves 1 drop
4. Oil of Thyme 1 drop
5. Oil of Eucalyptus 4 drops
6. Ephedrine 25 grains
7. Alkannin 2 grains

Dissolve Nos. 1, 2, and 6 in No. 8 by the aid of heat, then add Nos. 3, 4, 5 and 7.

Directions: Spray by means of an oil atomizer into nostrils and throat morning and night; oftener if necessary. The exceedingly fine distribution obtained by the spray carries it to all the parts of nose and throat, an accomplishment not so readily attained by any other method of application. If an atomizer is not at hand, it may be administered to the nostrils with an eye dropper.

This is a very effective Formula for quickly clearing the air passages of the nose and throat. As catarrhal conditions are often responsible for affections and congestion of Bronchial tubes and hardness of hearing, it can be used also to advantage in these conditions.
