From the generic name of the Spider tribe (Tex -1 teria;) the word texture is derived, and the web of this insect was undoubtedly the first specimen of weaving which the world ever saw. Rude as the specimen may be considered,, it is as near an ap proach to the fabrics of oar lonns-, as the crude remedies of the early ages are to the triumphs o modern pharmacy. In the days of Hippocrates a ! root was dag at a particular time of the moon, and after being soaked in cold water, the fluid was ad (jmini- tered to the patient. Compare this powerless ! inHfc&n with the hapjiy result of combination a?. ’ concentration attained in SANDS* SARSAPA RILLA. The detergent and tonic properties of the mod valuable of all roots, exercise through th s preparation their most perfect influence ; and the consequence is that all di-eases of the skin and ether integrements, as wed as those of the flesh and glands (including Scrofula) yield readily in al most every instance to its effects.
