Clear Windshield.

A doctor living in a rainy climate, whose calls took him out often in wet weather, undertook the problem of maintaining clear vision through the windshield of his automobile regardless of rain, and he succeeded in making a prescription that would do the work. The prescription calls for one ounce of water, two ounces of glycerine and one dram of salt. This is poured on a piece of gauze and then wiped over the glass, care being taken to have all the strokes downward. The effect of the treatment is to prevent raindrops from clinging to the glass.
