The early races living In South America discovered the therapeutic properties of many plants; and sur prising cures were achieved. The lat ter, however, were usually ascribed to the supernatural powers of the "doctor" who highly dramatised his treatments the administering of the herbs and powders was accom panied by hundreds ot weird gestleu-. latlons an with endless sing-song " supplications to the birds and anl- mals to lend their aid In bringing ' health. ' The "doctors" of those ancient days discovered many plants with' purgative powers; they made a pow der from the leaves ot the plant we call tobacco which would clear op nasal passages; they discovered that coca plant, from which our cocaine Is derived, was a magic pain killer; ,.' they used very effectively the leaves , of a certain water plant to treat! various eye troubles.
