Its medicinal and pre9ervative qualities
were understood by the Egyptians in

that the preparation used in the en-
balmment Of bodies, was composed
principally of this ingredient. In later
ages, it was found to be in universal
use among The aborigines Of America,
and at this day II is their principal, and
in fact, only medicine for an unsound
state of the lungs, or any approach to
it. Thosewho are acquainted with the
