TO EASE OR CURE THE STONE. 
Take the decoction of agrimony, morning and evening ; 
or strong chamomile tea, freely; or boil one-half pound of — 
parsnips in.a quart of water—drink a gill of this morning 
and evening, drink it freely for six weeks—use no other 
drink ; or drink daily two quarts of lime water that is made 
of oyster shells, for a month; or, morning and evening, 
tea-spoonful of roasted onion juice in a tea-spoonful of white 
wine—an ounce will often dissolve the stone; or lay on the 
_ groins and back a cloth of five or six thicknesses, wet with 
the Pain Extractor and onion juice, equal parts; or take a 
tea-spoonful of powdered violet seed, morning and evening— 
it both wastes and brings it away ; or burn the shells of kid- _ 
ney or common white beans, pour boiling water on. them and 
steep them, then strain and. sweeten with honey, and drink it 
daily.
