Representative types of this class of inhalers are theAllis (Figs. 24, 25) and the Blake inhalers, while the Goldaninhaler represents a simple form adapted for either open or closeadministration. It is well to rub a little vaseline on the lips and adjacent por-tions of the face of the patient in order to avoid the irritationof the ether. Two or three drachms of ether are poured in theinhaler which is held a short distance from the face until thepatient gets accustomed to the sensation of inhaling the vapor. **V*? V «l\Tti«W&Mfe.
