Text Appearing Before Image:
k the chills in intermittents, and as one ingredient in spicebitters, womans friend, conserve of hollyhock, &c, to be used af-ter a course, it has few superiors. Combined with lobelia seed andcypripedium, rolled in boneset extract into a pill and given everyhour, it makes an admirable compound to break up congestions,costiveness, &c, especially when aided by the bath. Used withpolemonium, catnip, or sage and pennyroyal, it is an excellent hy-dragogue in dropsy. Even alone it has cured many cases that haddefied the skill of the mineral school. Used alone, or with a littlecayenne, it acts pretty thoroughly as a cathartic. For further information see Rec. vol. vi. 264, 265. Besides the value of this plant as a therapeutic agent, it is enti^tied to notice for its use in the arts. The bark furnishes a fibre re-sembling hemp, but of a white color and superior in strength anddurability, and a decoction of the plant affords a permanent brownor black dye, according to the mordant used.
