Wash the face in a solution composed of one teaspoonful of carbolic acid to a pint of water.
The principal ingredient of this compound was carbolic acid.
As an extra precaution I had a bottle of carbolic poured over the deck, to provide the appropriate sick-bay odour.
In the inferior carbolic acid soaps there is little or no carbolic acid, but cresylic takes its place.
Several cowhouses have been treated with carbolic acid with very excellent results.
