PREFACE 


In  the  compilation  of  this  Hand~-book,  we  have  con- 
sulted standard  authorities  for  correct  Botanical  names. 
For  medical  properties  and  uses  we  have  taken  medical 
works  of  acknowledged  reputation. 

Our  aim  has  been  to  compile  the  best  and  most  con- 
venient Hand-book  for  correct  and  quick  reference  which 
has  ever  been  published,  for  the  use  of  the  Whole- 
sale Druggist,  the  Retail  Apothecary,  and  the  Physician. 
With  an  experience  of  more  than  thirty  years  in  the 
Botanic  Drug  trade,  we  have  seen  much  of  the  perplexity 
which  arises  from  the  confusion  of  names  given  to  our 
native  plants,  and  we  believe  this  little  Hand-book 
will  aid  others  in  surmounting  those  perplexities,  and  be  a 
boon  long  sought  for  by  all  Dealers.
