Nature’s Disinfectants.

Never forget the old reliable bleaches and disinfectants that Mother Nature and the primitive homemakers “of the race - have used for aeons —sunshine, fresh air, and boiling water. They are cheap, Inexhaustible in supply, and ready at band. Resort to them freely. Even hot water, cooled enough to be barely endurable, will serve to disinfect a fresh wound if nothing more vigorous Is at hand. Common salt is one of the most effective antiseptics.
