Every mother gives \V iid Cherry tea to her children for worms, for cools, ami for almost every disease; and adults throughout our country are in : the habit of making a compound or syrup of \V ild j C herry bark, and other ingredients, to he used in i spring as an antidute to complaints incident to dial changeful season. It is found by experiment that the Wild Cherry possesses even far more impor tant qualities than was ascribed to it. for the first stages of Consumption, Asthma, no matter hotr long standing.
