Slide #54: A 1916 analysis of Dr. Tucker's Diaphoretic Compound found that it contained 71% alcohol, capsicum, oil of cajaput, oil of anise, and possibly some lobelia. A diaphoretic is a product that produces perspiration, and possibly Dr. Tucker's formula did. The reverse of the card presents a testimonial on the value of the product in the "severe cold to which Arctic climate subjects the unacclimated."
