1 The garden sage, a native of South France, is tonic, stomachic, and anti-hysteric. 



2 A common species, introduced from Europe. It appears everywhere on the burnt ground of the 

 clearings. It has been commended as a valuable remedy in infusion of leaves and flowers against 

 asthma; even in cases of consumption. Some assert that the plant eaten by horses causes them to 

 become broken winded. Homoeopathy would explain easily (similia similibus curantur) these contra- 

 dictory properties. 



3 Like the Ground-Ivy, used in decoction in cases of consumption or of prolonged coughs and difficult 

 expectoration.
