Medicines for Motorists.
Miniature medicine chests are the newest thing for the motorist. Every kind of medicine for any emergency is compressed into a neat leather ease, about four inches by three. Should an accident occur, should my lady faint or collapse, then in a twinkling the little leather box is opened out bsfore you. It is a complete dispensary. Here is sal volatile to restore shattered nerves, there tannin to stop bleeding; an apparatus for binding a broken limb, and Carron oil. of linseed and lime water, to allav burns: brushes to
remove grit from the eves, smelling* fills, tonics, anil sleep inducers. In the rase of a breakdown on the road the motorist van be independent of a doctor. Every thwig is marvellously compact: three yards of gauze, one inch wide, for instance, are compiessed in a square inch box.
