Tiii. PREFACE. 



There are rules for gathering and preserving 

 herbs, and their several parts, directions for making 

 such preparations from them, as can conveniently 

 be prepared in families, and general admonitions 

 and cautions in their respective uses. 



If I could have thought of any thing farther, 

 that could tend to the making the book more use- 

 ful, I should have added it ; as it is, the candid 

 reader h desired to accept it, as written with $ 

 real view to be of service to aiaukiad.
