. In case of
local inflammation use hot water. The indiscriminate use of cold water
injections will be found rather injurious than beneficial, and a woman in
feeble health will always find warm water invigorating and preferable.

4. LEUCORRHOEA.--In case of persistent leucorrhoea use the temperature of
water from seventy-two to eighty-five degrees Fahrenheit.
5. THE CLEANSER will greatly stimulate the health and spirits of any woman
who uses it. Pure water injections have a stimulating effect, and it seems
to invigorate the entire body.
6. SALT AND WATER INJECTIONS.--This will cure mild cases of leucorrhoea.
Add a teaspoonful of salt to a pint and a half of water at the proper
temperature. Injections may be repeated daily if deemed necessary.
7. SOAP AND WATER.--Soap and water is a very simple domestic remedy, and
will many times afford relief in many diseases of the womb. It seems it
thoroughly cleanses the parts. A little borax or vinegar may be used the
same as salt water injections. (See No. 6.)
8. STERILE WOMEN desiring offspring should seek sexual union soon after the
appearance of the menses, and not use the vaginal cleanser till several
days later. Those not desiring offspring should avoid copulation until the
ovum has passed the generative tract.
9. HOLES IN THE TUBES.--Most of the holes in the tubes of syringes are too
small. See that they are sufficiently large to produce thorough cleansing.
10. INJECTIONS DURING THE MONTHLY FLOW.--Of course it is not proper to
arrest the flow, and the injections will stimulate a healthy action of the
organs. The injections may be used daily throughout the monthly flow with
much comfort and benefit. If the flow is scanty and painful the injections
may be as warm as they can be comfortably borne. If the flowing is
immoderate, then cool water may be used. A woman will soon learn her own
condition and can act accordingly.
11. BLOOM AND GRACE OF YOUTH.--The regular bathing of the body will greatly
improve woman's beauty. Remember that a perfect complexion depends upon the
healthy action of all the organs. Vaginal injections are just as important
as the bath. A beautiful woman must not only be cleanly, but robust and
healthy. There can be no perfect beauty without good health.
