Mustard Plaster for Chest Colds

4 Tbls flour
2 tsp oil
1 Tbls dry mustard

Mix in lukewarm water to form a paste. Spread on thin clean cloth and cover. Place on chest for 20 minutes (shorter time for small children). Be careful not to burn the skin. Remove the plaster and cover the chest with camphorated oil or Vicks. Then cover with warm fabric such as flannel or a towel. Repeat in 4 hours.
