Tb,s our american FORESTS abound h

That our American rorests abound n
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores OF the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu.
tored Indians had discovered the useful.
ness OF many native plants before the
advent Of the white race. This informa-

the latter TO continue investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment Of most
valuable American medicinal roots.
