PLUMBING FIXTURES

The weariest thing in the world is to make

the

long trek between the bed of pain and the

bathroom only to find that the green depths of

the Acid Acetylsalicylic bottle are as empty as

Life's fair promises of the previous evening.

If

you are a Guest, take a potion from any of

the small bottles marked with a skull and cross–

bones. This will occasion your hosts enough

embarrassment to ensure their reform. They

may even be hanged, if you arrange things clev–

erly, which

is

the Ideal, of course.

If

it is your own home, check your bathroom

commissary by the following list, at the first

presages of a party:

1

bottle

100

aspirin tablets.

1

pint or more lime water.

1

large bottle

Fruit

Salts.

1

fl.aeon ammoniac smelling salts.

1

large bottle aromatic spirits of ammonia.

1

tin bicarbonate of soda.

1

bottle milk of magnesia.

1

bottle mercurochrome (for wounds) .

1

bottle rubbing alcohol (for sprains or se–

vere contusions) .

The lime water, if gargled after the teeth are

brushed, will make the interior of the mouth

quite inhabitable.
