OPODELDOC

—is an article of external use in STRAINS , BRUISES , and other complaints, as well with the human species as with the brute creation. It is prepared by di olving three ounces of Spanish soap , and one ounce of CAMPHIRE , in a pint of SPIRIT of ROSEMARY . Others di olve the soap and camphire in rectified spirits of wine, adding OIL of ORIGANUM , and other e ential oils. Its excellent properties are universally admitted in its various applications to the human frame; but doubts naturally arise how far it may contribute any great portion of EFFICACY to HORSES , or to any other animal, where the soap again coagulates, and constitutes so matted a ma upon the surface, that it is only with persevering difficulty the hair can be disunited even at the second application.
