LANOLIN.
Lanolin is the natural fat of wool and is used as a substitute
for ordinary fat for local use. On account of its being analogous
to the natural fat of the skin, it is supposed to be more freely
absorbed by the tissues than the ordinary fats ; hence it is em-
ployed as a vehicle for remedies which are to be absorbed, and
for such a purpose has been combined with arsenious acid and
hydrochlorate of cocaine in a devitalizing mixture.
