Commissioned by His Majesty's Government to study the medicinal plants Of my native country, I returned there and spent two years in collecting data regarding the use that the Filipinos make Of their plants in the treatment Of disease. At the same time I collected and carefully preserved some with the purpose of taking them to Europe, to study their chemical composition in the laboratories of Paris under the dirce tion Of the eminent men who had been my instructors in medicine.
