Description Block 113

 

Author: Unknown

Book: Chinese instructions for Lu Remedy No. 40

Notes: Translated as "Taro powder, kudzuvin root starch, Vignaradiata (L) R. Wilczak powder. Each take 3.75 gram and mix with well water. Take accordingly. Heal immediately. Avoid eating hot, spicy and drinking alcohol."  Not sure what this was meant to cure! This is the reverse of the block shown as #112. The block probably dates to the late 19th century.
