Chicken Panada for a weak Stomach avery good one Lady Lucy B s- Take a fresh roasted Chicken, take the white pound it well in a Mortar, boil all the Bones & brown Meat with a blade of Mace, and rub it thro' a Sieve with some of the Liquor: - add Salt to your taste. - For the Croup There is an disease much more common in america than in England, call'd the Croup or Cynache Tracheatis that occasions an apparent Suffocation in the Patient, and makes him discharge a white frothy substance, which the Faculty mistaking for phlegm, give a vomit to remove. this generally kills without reprieve. the true and only recipe is an external application to the Throat & Breast of Camphorated brandy, rubbed on repeatedly, till the patient is perfectly free of all incumbrance, which generally is the case in three or four applications - the quantities are a piece of Camphor of the size of a Pidgeon's Egg in a four ounce Bottle of Brandy; what the brandy does not take up, drops to the bottom.-
