This plant has been for many years found
to be Of singular virtue in the cure Of affections
of the Liver. More recently II was ascertain-
ed TINT it possessed great power in a~rresting
Bleeding at the Lnngo, Coughs, OF a chronic
character, etc, and OF essential service 10 all
diseases Of a pulmonary character.
Notwithstanding the extraordinary proper.
ties of these valuable ingredients were .ggener-
ally known and acknowledged, 1t was left for
DR.. Andrew Rogers to discover the process Of
extracting and combining their peculiar virtues
with other vegetable substances such as Iceland
moss, wild cherry, ETC.. to form a compound
hitherto unriynled in the history Of the cause
and cure of the various diseases to which the
flesh is heir.
