[A
CUP
MUST
BE
BITTER
THAT
A
SMILE
WILL
NOT
SWEETEN.]
2464.
Camomile
Flowers.
Camomile
flowers
should
be
gathered
on
a
fine
day,
and
dried
upon
a
tray
placed
in
the
sun.
All
herbs
for
medicinal
purposes
and
uses
should
be
treated
in
the
same
manner.
2465.
Decoction
of
Sarsaparilla.
Take
four
ounces
of
the
root,
slice
it
down,
put
the
slices
into
four
pints
of
water,
and
simmer
for
four
hours.
Take
out
the
sarsaparilla,
and
beat
it
into
a
mash;
put
it
into
the
liquor
again,
and
boil
down
to
two
pints,
then
strain
and
cool
the
liquor.
Dose,
a
wineglassful
three
times
a
day.
Use--to
purify
the
blood
after
a
course
of
mercury;
or,
indeed,
whenever
any
taint
is
given
to
the
constitution,
vitiating
the
blood,
and
producing
eruptive
affections.
2466.
Preston
Salts.
Take
of
sal-ammoniac
and
salts
of
tartar
of
each
about
two
ounces;
pound
up
the
sal-ammoniac
into
small
bits,
and
mix
them
gently
with
the
salts
of
tartar.
After
being
well
mixed,
add
a
few
drops
of
oil
of
lavender,
sufficient
to
scent,
and
also
a
little
musk;
stop
up
in
a
glass
bottle,
and
when
required
for
use,
add
a
few
drops
of
water,
or
spirits
of
hartshorn,
when
you
will
immediately
have
strong
smelling
salts.
The
musk
being
expensive,
may
be
omitted,
as
the
salts
will
be
good
without
it.
Any
person
can
for
a
few
pence
obtain
these
ingredients
at
any
druggist's,
and
they
will
make
salts,
which,
to
buy
prepared,
would
cost,
at
the
least,
eighteen
pence.
