Mr. Editor: The following remedy for consumptives, which we clip from the Monmouth Monthly, may be of benefit to your readers, as the plant can be easily obtained. A correspondent writes:— “I have discovered a remedy for consumption. It has cured a number of cases after the patient had commenced bleeding at the lungs, and the hectic flush was already on the brow. After trying this remedy to my own satisfaction, I have thought philanthropy required that I should let it be known to the world. It is the common mullen, steeped strong, and sweetened with coffee sugar, and drank freely. “The herb should be gathered before the end of July, if convenient. Young or old plants are good dried in the shade, and kept in clean paper bags. The medicine must be continued from three to six months, according to the nature of the disease. It is good for the blood-vessels also. It strengthens the system, and builds up, instead of taking away strength. It makes good blood, and takes inflammation from the lungs. It is the wish of the writer that every paper in the country would publish this recipe for the benefit of the people. Lay this up and have it in the house ready for use.”—W. K., in Bib. Messenger.
