Salt. — A teaspoonful of salt in a pint of warm water, followed by copious warm water drinking and tickling of the throat, is an excellent means of exciting vomiting. Copious warm water drinking and tickling of the throat with a feather or the finger will also aid the effect of other emetics and secure the desired result with smaller doses than would otherwise be required. We have known of several instances in which physicians have given one emetic after another without effect until nearly the whole list of emetic substances had been swallowed, relief being obtained only when the patient was directed to take copious draughts of warm water.
