    2 N° 10,294.—A.D. 1888. Gillarris Improvements in Soap and Plaister s. This addition will render the soap more absorbent of the essential oil, and increase the efficiency of its action upon the skin. As this saponaceous compound is very efficient in removing rheumatic pains, I propose to employ it as a plaister for the various parts of the body affected thereby, and also for disorders of the chest arising from cold. 5 The plaister will be prepared in any well-known manner from the saponaceous compound containing a percentage of essential oil of cajuput, equal or superior to that of the bath soap. Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what 10 I claim is :— The preparation of medicated soap as and for the purposes above described. Dated this 16th day of April 1889. NEWTON & SON, Agents for the Applicant, 15 London : Printed for Her Majesty’s Stationery Office, by Darling & Son, Ltd.—1889.
