Half a cake of white wax, a good inch of a pure spermaceti candle, a
piece of camphor as large as an English walnut, a tablespoonful of
sweet oil, mix and simmer all together; if too soft, add more wax, if
too hard, add more oil. This is excellent to use in cold weather for
lips and hands.
This being prepared for a home book, we give a few recipes for the use
of the toilet, which we know are good.
We will give one more most excellent recipe for a cooling and healing
salve.
