Colonial Life

My job as a Apothecary is very important to lots of people. I help people with sicknesses and also mix medicine. Lots of people visit me to ask for medicine so they will feel better. I am all most like a doctor, we do lots of similar and each sell medicine. People like me sell prepared medicine from England, we learned about native plants used by the Indians, and we keep a garden to grow roots and herbs we need to mix cures. There is some medicine that would help the flu called Horehound Tea. There is some other useful medicine like Spearmint, it is good for stomachs. Like I said an Apothecary is very important to lots of people.
