Advertisement for Homocea, 1895. 'TOUCHES THE SPOT IN Influenza - In our judgment, Homocea should prove almost a specific for ordinary cases of Influenza...put a little up the nostrils, and then, one hour afterwards, take a lump about the size of a hazel nut internally. This is easily done by throwing it back in the throat, and swallowing some water. Homocea contains nothing injurious - no LAUDANUM, MENTHOL, MINERAL or NARCOTIC. As a preventive of Influenza, some should be put up the nostrils two or three times a day. If the nose, eyes and throat are affected, half a teaspoonful might be put in a cup of boiling water, and the fumes inhaled in the mouth and nostrils, with a flannel cloth thrown over the head. We are convinced that this treatment will prove beneficial. What Homocea is, millions of Englishmen now know. Never in the annals of medicine has a preparation been offered to the public with anything like its virtues. Certainly it has not been effectually tried in Influenza; but the way it works on a chill when taken Internally causes us to think that the result will be equally helpful in the epidemic now prevailing. NOTE - Wherever there is any rheumatic affection, rub the part thoroughly with EXAINO - the Strong Preparation of Homocea'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
