No. 42. — To STOP Blood from a Fresh Wound. 



An Indian remedy. Take three different kinds of 

 herbs, you need not be particular what they are; chew 

 them all together, and apply the contents, with the spit- 

 tle to the wound. This remedy they use for man and 

 beast (with great success, they say); it is simple and 

 easy, being always at hand. 



No. 43. — To MAKE Casler's Liniment. 



To one gallon of alcohol, add one pound of cedar oil; 

 half a pound of squaw weed oil (blue blow); half a pound 

 of oil origanum; half a pound of wormwood oil; half a 

 pound of spearmint; half a pint tincture of lobelia; and 

 one ounce of camphor gum; and color with red sanders. 



No. 44. — -To MAKE Guiwit's Liniment. 



To one gallon of alcohol, add half a pound of wormwood 

 oil; half a pound of origanum oil; four ounces of guru 

 myrrh; one ounce oil of anise; and two ounces of cam- 

 phor gum. 



No. 45. — Avery's Cure for Corns. 



Take the extract of swamp ash bark, off from the 

 roots; add a very little spirits of turpentine; apply this 

 three or four times — • or a strong lye made from the 

 ashes of the same wood. Most corns will be removed in 

 this way, without giving any pain. Where the above is 

 not suflSciently strong for the purpose, or for ringbones, 

 add a very little corrosive sublimate and laudanum.
