    0568 A.D. L806 Date of Application, 5th May, 1896 Complete Specification Left, 5th Feb., 1897—Accepted, 3rd Apr., 1897 PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION. Improvements in and connected with Inhalers. I, Frederick Schutze, of No. Alder.sgate Street, in the City of London, Drugfjfists’ Sundriesman, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows :— This invention relates to inhalers and has for its object to combine the advantages ^ of a menthol cone with an inhaler so that the menthol cone can be applied externally to the afflicted part it is desired to treat, or the menthol vapours may be inhaled either alone or together with the vapours of valuable remedial agents, such as camphor, eucalyptus, terebene, creosote, for the treatment of neuralgia, headache, colds, coughs, relaxed throats, lung catarrhs and other like ailments. 10 To this end I employ a receptacle or holder advantageously formed in three parts, the lower part or base being recessed to receive the menthol cone and formed with an air opening ,* the central part is connected to the base by suitable means such as screw-threads and consists of a chamber formed with air openings and provided at its upper part with a recess communicating by openings with the 15 interior of the said central part and adapted to hold a piece of cotton-wool or the like saturated with camphor, eucalyptus, terebene, creosote or other suitable remedial agent. The upper part consists of a cup, dome or other suitably shaped perforated cap screwed or otherwise suitably connected to the central pare and through which the vapours may be inhaled. Should it be desired to use the 20 menthol cone externally by rubbing it on the affected part, the upper parts are disconnected from the base and the menthol cone can then be applied. To inhale the menthol vapours alone the saturated cotton-w'ool is removed from the middle chamber. I propose to call my improved inhaler “ The Eddystone Menthol Cone Inhaler.” Dated this 5th day of May 1896. G. F. REDFERN & Co., 4, South Street, Finsbury, London, Agents for the Applicant.
