Description
Summary:1920 1920 1920s 16 pages : illustrations FAMILY LIMITATION 15 afterwards ; also carbolated vaseline on sponges may be used. Get one fully as large as the fist — boil it for ten minutes. Before using it dip in water and vinegar half and half and squeeze out partly, then push it up as far as it will go, pack it tight around the mouth of the womb so that it covers completely. Douche thoroughly after its removal. One of the cheapest methods of birth control is the use of a large sponge. VAGINAL SUPPOSITORIES. Suppositories or soluble pessaries are becoming more generally used by those who can afford it than any other method of prevention. These may be found at any reliable pharmacy. The majority of them are made from cocoa butter or gelatine, which makes it necessary that they be deposited in the vagina several minutes before the act, in order for them to melt. Special ingredients negate the effect of the male seed. A simple recipe which anybody can easily make is, as follows: 1 ounce cocoa butter, 60 grains quinine. Melt the cocoa butter, mix the quinine with it, and form into suppositories by letting mixture harden into a cake and then cutting it up into ten pieces. Insert one piece into the vagina about three minutes before the act. In case there is any difficulty in obtaining the articles described, application should be made to Messrs. E. Lambert & Son, Manufacturing Chemists, 60 Queen's Road, Dalston, London, E.8. I regret giving them this advertisement, but feel that, in the interests of humanity, failure should not be allowed to arise through the use of inferior appliances, of which there are many on the market. SOME QUESTIONS OFTEN ASKED. 1. What is the best preventive? There is no one preventive to be recommended for everyone in every case. There are good and harmless preventives, any one of which can be made safe, according to the intelligence applied in using them. 15X/2/490/4
