In this essay therefore is clearly shewed from the Principles of the New Philosophy, how by the Wearing only of this necklace Children will easily Breed and Cut their Teeth, without any Pain, Convulsions, or Fever at all: Women in Labour be Easily, Presently, and Safely Delivered: And most Distempers of the Head Cured without ever taking in any thing at the Mouth. Dedicated to Dr. Chamberlen, and the Royal Society. Entred in the Hall-Book.
