There was a discussion on here a few weeks ago about people drinking Turpentine years ago. I was looking through Ebay the other day for old items from my hometown and found this from an old drugstore that has been out of business since the 60's.

My step father swore by "Creoturpine". It was some very old but, still available cough medicine. God awful stuff. Other than that it was the usual....vicks on the chest and nose.
 
Always given hot lemonade with whiskey in it. Then had to cover up with blankets to sweat it out.
 
Now I just skip the lemonade and get the whiskey out because I might cut my figure or maybe feel a sore throat coming on. Prevention is a great way of staying well. Lol
 
A spoonful of sugar and turpentine. That'll fix you up for the common cold.
According to dr Jennifer Daniels, it treats a LOT more than the common cold. Parasites in your digestive tract eat the sugar. The turp kills them.
