TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE, 
 
 The translation here submitted to the public is the second trans- 
 lation of this work into English, it having before this been rendered 
 by Dr. Charles J. Hempel and published by Wm. Radde in the years 
 1845-6. When it was proposed to reprint this translation, there was 
 a strong protest made against the old version on the ground of its 
 being to some degree inexact, and on account of its omitting not only 
 the initials of the provers but besides this, also a great number of 
 symptoms. These complaints have been proved well founded, 
 especially with respect to the latter part of the work. We have 
 taken a hundred symptoms at random here and there and compared 
 them with the original, with the following results: in Alumina 555- 
 655 we found only the omission of a part of symptom 556 and a 
 partial omission and joining together of symptoms 617 and 618. So 
 also in Graphites there is no omission except 53 (a repetition) in the 
 first hundred, nor any other until we reach 200, 201 and 202 which 
 are omitted. In the first hundred of Nitri acidum, however, we find 
 13 omissions, namely 6, 30, 32, 37, 38, 40, 43, 45, 59, 64, 65, 67 
 and 69. So also in Zincum from 1135 to 1235 we find 10 omissions, 
 i.e., 1136, 1138, 1152, 1170, 1187, 1197, 1207, 1220, 1222, 1225 and 
 1235; while 1 153, 1 195 and 1295 have one-half of their substance 
 omitted. Between 1236 and 1335 there are 23 omissions, namely 1245, 
 1269, 1278, 1288, 1290, 1292, 1293, 1294, 1297, 1298, 1299, 1302, 
 1303, 1305, 1306, 1308, 1313, 1316, 1320, 1324, 1331, 1332, 1335. 
 while one-half of the substance of symptoms 1287, 1296, 1312, 1315 
 and 1325 is omitted; showing the omission in this extreme case of 
 over one-fourth. The omissions are rather impartially distributed. 
 about one-third of the above omissions being S3^mptoms of Hahne- 
 mann, fully one- third, those due to Nenning and the other third, 
 distributed impartially among the various other provers. 
 
 These omissions made a new translation necessar\% which was ac- 
 cordingly made independent of that of Dr. Hempel, though the 
 earlier translation was consulted especialh^ where there was any 
 obscurity or ambiguity in the original. There is no question but 
 that Hempel is right in what he says of the involved phraseology and

 the length}' periods of Hahnemann; still we did not think it best to 
 follow his mode of rendering, which according to his preface consists 
 in " mastering the sense of a period, and then embodying it in a free 
 manner in the foreign tongue." We have preferred to follow in this 
 respect the example set by Dr. Dudgeon in his admirable translation 
 of the Materia Medica Pura (London, 1880); he has faithfully 
 rendered not only the ideas but also the expressions of Hahnemann. 
 It is onh' by thus closeh^ following the author, that we shall be sure 
 to reproduce the ideas of the author and, indeed, in their own setting 
 and thus in their native vigor and in the author's own original style. 
 We have accordingh' preserved the long periods of Hahnemann and 
 his own precise, if sometimes redundant, phraseolog}' ; though, of 
 course, it was necessar}^ to invert the periods and to arrange the 
 phrases into the English order. 
 
 This applies chiefly to the first theoretic part of the work, and in 
 this part we would especialh' acknowledge the able assistance of Dr. 
 Pemberton Dudley, who has taken care that too close a clinging to 
 the German original might be avoided. 
 
 We have generally endeavored to translate the same German 
 word b}' the same English word, except where words have several 
 meanings. A few particulars may here be mentioned. The 
 frequently recurring adjective drueckend, which by Dr. Hempel is 
 usually rendered with '' aching " and by Dr. Dudgeon with "press- 
 ive " or with " aching," we have uniformly rendered with pressive; 
 while we use " ache " to translate the German ivch. There area 
 few words which require a varied translation according to the 
 context: Brust is used both for "chest" and for "the female 
 breast," so that ^.^. die rechte Brust ma}" mean either "the right 
 breast" or "the right side of the chest;" Hals means either 
 ' ' throat " or " neck;" Schenkel may mean either ' ' the thigh, " " the 
 leg " or " the whole lower limb," though for these parts usually the 
 more specific terms Oberscheyikel , Unterschenkel and Bein are used; 
 Gesicht means either "face" or "sight." We have taken care to 
 translate these terms according to the context in every case, though 
 the learned reader will remember that in some of these cases there is 
 a little ambiguity. One of the German terms which seems to have no 
 good English equivalent is Eiytgejioimneji with respect to the head. 
 It means literally ' ' occupied ' ' and describes the sensation produced 
 in the head by a cold, where the parts are as it were benumbed and 
 incapacitated from acting freely. Dr. Hempel has usually described 
 this state of the head by "obtusion," Dr. Dudgeon usually by 
 * ' confusion " or " muddled feeling. ' ' We have usually rendered it 
 with " benumbed feeling," though as none of these terms was quite 
 
PREFATORY NOTE. Vll 
 
 satisfactor}', we have also sometimes used ' ' muddled feeling ' ' or 
 " obtuseness." 
 
 As was done in the Materia Medica Pura published in lyondon, 
 so we have also in this work printed the names of old school authori- 
 ties cited with small capitals, while the names of other provers are 
 in italics, so that it may be seen at a glance, whether the symptom 
 w^as produced b}^ an intentional proving (or from clinical experience) , 
 or whether it was the result of accidental poisoning or an overdose 
 by an observer of the old school. 
 
 The Antipsoric Medicines have been annotated by Dr. Richard 
 Hughes, of Bath, England, who in the course of his researches found 
 occasion to rectify the numbers referring to the pages, etc. of a 
 number of the citations. These at his suggestion were at first 
 merel}^ entered in the translation instead of the figures given by 
 Hahnemann; but on second thought, it seemed more useful to give 
 them among the other notes given by Dr. Hughes, as showing his 
 diligence and the care given by him to these particulars. 
 
 While there seemed to be no necessity for an index to the Antip- 
 soric Medicines, since this is furnished in the various repertories, 
 especially in that of Boenninghausen, it was thought useful to have 
 an index to the first or theoretical part, and this was accordingly 
 prepared hy the translator.

 PREFATORY NOTE TO MATERIA MEDICA SECTION. 
 
 I have been desired, by the publishers of this new translation of 
 Hahnemann's Chronic Diseases, to exercise a certain editorial super- 
 intendence over what may be called the Materia Medica section of 
 the work. I shall do this mainly by notes appended to each patho- 
 genesis; but in the present place I desire to state what is known in 
 a general way about the symptom-lists in question,-'^ and what I pro- 
 pose to do for them as they severall}^ appear in the following pages. 
 
 I. In 1 82 1 Hahnemann had been compelled to leave Leipsic, and. 
 in difficulty where to find a place in which he could practice in 
 freedom, had been offered an asylum in the little country town of 
 Coethen. Thither he repaired, and there he remained till his removal

 of my Pharmacodynamics. My present statement is based upon what is written there.

 to Paris in 1835. He now ceased to attend acute disease, save in the 
 family of his patron, the reigning Duke. But his fame brought him 
 for consultation chronic sufferers from all parts; and the varied, 
 shifting, and obstinate morbid states under which so many men and 
 women labour were pressed closely upon his attention. The result 
 was the theory of chronic disease which (in its latest shape) will 
 be found in these pages, and which traces so many of its forms to a 
 "psoric" origin. To meet the manifold disorders thus induced it 
 seemed to him that a new set of remedies were required. Accord- 
 ingly, of the three volumes of the first edition of the present work 
 published in 1828, the two latter contained what seem to be path- 
 ogeneses of fifteen medicines hitherto strange to his Materia Medica 
 Pura, and in some cases to any Materia Medica whatever. These 
 medicines were 
 
 Ammonium carbonicum, Magnesia muriatica. 
 
 Baryta carbonica, Natrum carbonicum, 
 
 Calcarea carbonica, Nitri acidum, 
 
 Graphites, Petroleum, 
 
 lodiumx, Phosphorus, 
 
 Lycopodium, Sepia, 
 
 Magnesia carbonica, Silicea, 
 
 Zincum. 
 The pathogeneses of the foregoing (I assume them to be such 
 from the analogy of the corresponding symptom-lists of the Materia 
 Medica Pura; but they are not avowedly so) appear without a word 
 of explanation as to how the symptoms were obtained, and without 
 acknowledgment (as in the previous work) of fellow- observers. The 
 absence of anj^ co-operation on the part of others is further to be in- 
 ferred from what we are told of the first announcement of the work. 
 After six years of solitude at Coethen, Hahnemann *' summoned 
 thither his two oldest and most esteemed disciples, Drs. Stapf and 
 Gross, and communicated to them his theory of the origin of chronic 
 diseases, and his discovery of a completely new series of medicaments 
 for their cure.'' So wTites Dr. Dudgeon.* This was in 1827. That 
 he should now first reveal these new remedies, and in the following 
 year should publish copious lists of their pathogenetic effects, con- 
 firms the inference to be drawn from his position and from his silence 
 as to fellow-observers. He was himself between seventy and eighty 
 years old, and it is hardly likely that he did anything at this time in 
 the way of proving on his own person. We are compelled to the 
 conclusion that he drew these symptoms mainly — if not entirely — 
 
 * Lectures on Homoeopathy^ p. xxx.

 from the sufferers from chronic disease who flocked to his retreat to 
 avail themselves of his treatment. 
 
 The prefatory notices to the several medicines still further sub- 
 stantiate this view, and throw^ some light on the doses with which 
 the symptoms were obtained. He recommends all the medicines to 
 be given in the dilutions from the i8th to the 30th (save Magnesia 
 muriatica and Natrum carbonicum, of which he advises the 6th and 
 12th respectively); and repeatedly makes some such remark as this: 
 " For a long time past I have given the 6th, 9th and T2th potencies, 
 but found their effects too violent." Occasionally, too, he must have 
 used the second and third triturations; as he speaks of having begun 
 by giving a "small portion of a grain " of these, but, as this was an 
 indefinite quantity, having subsequentl}' dissolved and attenuated 
 them. He mentions cases, moreover, in which he treated itch wdth 
 Carbo vegetabilis and Sepia of the latter strength. 
 
 We may conclude, therefore, that it is these " violent effects " of 
 the attenuations from the 2d to the 12th, experienced by the sufferers 
 from chronic disease who took them, which make up the bulk — if 
 not the whole — of the symptoms of the first issue of the Chronic 
 Diseases. 
 
 In 1830 there appeared a third volume (making the fourth of the 
 first edition) of symptom-lists, appended to two more new medicines — 
 Kali carbonicum and Natrum muriaticum, and to five others — Carbo 
 animalis and vegetabilis, Causticum, Conium and Sulphur — which 
 had already found place in the Materia Medica Piira. Of the new^ 
 ones we are told that two persons co-operated in obtaining the patho- 
 genesis of Kali carbonicum and three in that of Natrum muriaticum — 
 in the case of the latter the symptoms being obtained from health}- 
 persons taking globules saturated with the 30th dilution.^ Fresh 
 associates are also acknowledged with regard to Conium. A new^ 
 character is thus imprinted on the symptoms standing under the 
 names of the several medicines, and it continues wath respect to 
 those contained in the second edition of the Chro7iic Diseases, pub- 
 lished 1835-9, which is that here translated. Besides the twenty- 
 two medicines of the first edition it contains twenty-five others, of 
 which thirteen are new, and twelve had already appeared in the 
 Materia Medica Piira. The new ones are: 
 
 Agaricus, Clematis, 
 
 Alumina, Cuprum, 
 
 Ammonium muriaticum, Euphorbium. 
 
 Anacardium, Mezereum, 
 
 * A specimen of these proviugs may be seen in the ^fo>^fhly Hoin. Rtviciv 
 for 1889, p. 517. 
 
X PREFATORY NOTE. 
 
 Antimonium crudum. Nitrum, 
 
 Borax, Platina, 
 
 Sulphuris acidum. 
 The old ones are: 
 
 Arsenicum, Hepar sulphuris, 
 
 Aurum . Manganum , 
 
 Colocynth, Muriatis acidum, 
 
 Digitalis, Phosphori acidum, 
 
 Dulcamara, Sarsaparilla. 
 
 Guaiacum, Stannum. 
 
 Those pathogeneses which had already seen the light have 
 (generally ) large additions; for all Hahnemann acknowledges con- 
 tributions from fellow-observers, and for many cites symptoms from 
 the extant literature of his day. The total number of these last is 
 1742. 
 
 There are, it is evident, fresh features in the pathogeneses of 
 this second edition; and there are more than appear on the surface. 
 Hahnemann's own additions, indeed, must be of the same character 
 as his contributions to the first; i. e., they must be collateral effects 
 of the drugs observed on the patients to whom he gave them. They 
 must all, moreover, be supposed to have resulted from the 30th dilu- 
 tion; for since 1829 he had urged the administration of all medicines 
 at this potency-. The same thing must be said of the contributions from 
 Hahnemann's friends to this edition. They may fairl}' be conceived to 
 have been provings on themselves or other healthy persons, save 
 where, as in Wahle's symptoms of Mezereum and Hering's of Arsenic, 
 the internal evidence is strong in the contrar}' direction. But they must 
 in all cases have been evoked from the 30th dilution; for in the edition 
 of the Organon published in 1833 Hahnemann recommends all prov- 
 ings to be made therewith, as yielding the best results. We have seen 
 that the symptoms of Xatrum muriaticum contributed by others to the 
 fourth volume of the first edition were so obtained; and we may 
 fairly extend the inference to all provings subsequently made. It is 
 otherwise, however, with the provings first published in the Materia 
 Medica Pura, in the present edition so largeh' incorporated with 
 those of later origin. These seem, from the scant}' information we 
 have, to have been made with mother tinctures and first tritura- 
 tions — repeated small doses being taken until some effect was pro- 
 duced. Hahnemann was further able, at this time, to draw upon 
 independent sources of drug-pathogenesy. Hartlaub and Trinks 
 had published a Materia Medica of their own. Stapf had begun to 
 issue his journal known as the Archiv, and many provings adorned 
 its pages. Lasth", outside the Homoeopathic school. Professor Joerg, 
 
PREFATORY NOTK. XI 
 
 of I^eipsic, was following in Hahnemann's track and proving medi- 
 cines on himself and his students. Of all these materials Hahne- 
 mann availed himself in the present work, which thus presents a 
 complex whole, made up of ver}^ heterogeneous elements, and need- 
 ing analysis that it maj^ be appraised and used aright. 
 
 II. It is the giving such analysis that will constitute my editorial 
 task. It will fall into the following categories: 
 
 1 . In the preface to each medicine Hahnemann gives a list of 
 names of " fellow-observers." To this I shall append a note, stating 
 whether these were provers of the later or earlier times, in which 
 case the manner of their experimentation is to be learned from what 
 I have written above; or whether their observations already existed 
 in print, and what information we have respecting them. 
 
 2. In the pathogeneses themselves, the first time an author is 
 cited I shall state the nature of his contribution to the subject (sup- 
 posing his work to have been accessible to me). Then — having 
 examined his symptoms in situ — I shall append to each one that 
 requires it such explanation or correction as may be necessary to set 
 it forth in its full meaning and value. 
 
 3. The foregoing information, and any other I may be able to 
 supply as to individual symptoms,* will be found in notes at the 
 bottom of the page, designated by the small figures 1,2, etc., and 
 divided by a line from Hahnemann's own annotations, which have 
 the usual *, f, etc. But while I have left untouched in the text the 
 pathogenetic phenomena themselves, I have used greater freedom 
 with the references to medical literature. These sometimes require 
 correction, more frequently explanation — especiall}^ when transferred 
 from the Materia Medica Pura or from Hartlaub and Trinks' work, 
 in which case Hahnemann has practised omission to a very large 
 extent, leaving those curious in the matter to refer to the previous 
 publications. I have thought that the present volume would be 
 more complete in itself, and more worthy of its author, were the 
 references fully as well as rightly given; and have supplied them 
 accordingly.

 EDITOR'S PREFACE- 
 
 Whatever estimate Science may finally place upon the discover- 
 ies and doctrines of Hahnemann, and whatever measure of confidence 
 in his therapeutic belief Posterit}^ may accord or withhold, his per- 
 sonality and work have achieved a position which must render them 
 perpetuall)^ historic. His teachings have been so interwoven with 
 the entire fabric of medical progress during the last hundred years» 
 and are so interlaced with the formative development of the incom- 
 ing century, that neither the wear and tear of time nor the dissec- 
 tions of criticism will ever be able to dissociate them. They are 
 destined, inevitably, to run through the texture of every page in 
 the future annals of medicine. 
 
 In the development of therapeutic art Hahnemann's position is 
 more than niereh^ transitional. He proclaims both an epoch and an 
 era; he represents both discovery and progress. To-day, as a hun- 
 dred 3^ears ago, he holds in one hand the past, in the other the 
 future of medical achievement. The future historian, crossing the 
 chasm between the medicine of speculative hypothesis and that based 
 on, observation of clinical and pharmaco-d3mamic phenomena, will 
 unfailingl}' recognize Hahnemann's agency in bringing about that 
 remarkable transformation in medical thought and practice. And 
 no exposition of Hahnemann's tenets, no rendition of his literary 
 works, which fails to note and consider their historical relations and 
 the historic individuality of their author, can be either adequate or 
 just. 
 
 In the task of setting forth in the English tongue the works of 
 Hahnemann, it thus becomes necessar}^ not merel}' to note carefully 
 the doctrines promulgated and the facts presented, but to exhibit 
 also, so far as his recorded words express, and the resources of our 
 own language enable us, the depth of the impression which his ob- 
 ser\-ations and discoveries must have produced upon his own mind, 
 as well as the intensity of conviction, the earnestness of feeling, and 
 the energj' of demonstration, which characterize all his controversial 
 writings. Long after his lineaments shall have faded from the can- 
 vas, his intellectual personality will survive in his literar}^ creations 
 and constitute an important feature of the medical chronicles of his 
 time. To modify or disguise his modes of thought and expression, 
 or to suppress the peculiarities of his literary style, would be an un- 
 pardonable distortion of the most pre-eminent figure in all medical 
 history. 
 
EDITOR S PREFACE. Xlll 
 
 111 that portion of this work in which Hahnemann considers the 
 Nature and the Treatment of Chronic Diseases in general, and of 
 Psora in particular, the reader will discover several peculiarities of 
 style, some of which are not at all common to our English polemi- 
 cal literature. Among these we may mention: (i,) his long, and 
 often involved, sentences; (2,) his exceedingly frequent employ- 
 ment of parenthetical clauses and sentences, and his not infrequent 
 use of the parenthesis within a parenthesis; (3, ) his multiplicit}^ of 
 iterations and reiterations — occurring twice or thrice in a single para- 
 graph; sometimes twice in the same sentence — ; (4,) his frequent in- 
 terjection of \vords and phrases expressing anew some minor fea- 
 ture of the subject under discussion, but forming no part of the dis- 
 cussion itself; (5,) his introduction of qualifying words and phrases 
 in certain peculiar and unusual connections, likely to escape the no- 
 tice of the casual or careless reader, but evidently intended by the 
 author to be taken at their full significance and importance and to 
 constitute an essential element of the discussion. It may be said, 
 in passing, that the failure to note this last-mentioned characteristic 
 of Hahnemann's method has occasioned much misunderstanding of 
 his doctrines. 
 
 No attempt has been made to render this work, or any portion 
 of it, a model of concise perspicuity. On the contrary, the aim has 
 been to retain, rather than to eliminate, the characteristic style of 
 the original text, in order that every point in the discussion, and 
 every shade of meaning should, if possible, be rendered exactly as 
 the author has expressed it. The careful student, certainly the in- 
 telligent admirer, of Hahnemann could not be content with a mere 
 transcription of his views and observations, but must insist on the 
 opportunit}^ to become familiar with his intellectual personality as 
 he looks out upon the present-day world through the medium of his 
 literary productions.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE. 
 
 TO THE FIRST EDITION— 1828. 
 
 If I did not know for what purpose I was put here on earth — to 
 become better myself as far as possible and to make better everything 
 around me, that is within my power to improve — I should have to 
 consider myself as lacking ver}^ much in worldly prudence to make 
 known for the common good, even before my death, an art which I 
 alone possess, and which it is within my power to make as profit- 
 able as possible by simply keeping it secret. 
 
 But in communicating to the world this great discovery, I am 
 sorry that I must doubt whether my contemporaries will compre- 
 hend the logical sequence of these teachings of mine, and will fol- 
 low them carefully and gain thereby the infinite benefits for suffering 
 humanity which must inevitably spring from a faithful and accurate 
 observance of the same; or whether, frightened away by the unheard 
 of nature of many of these disclosures, they will not rather leave 
 them untried and uninitiated and, therefore useless. 
 
 At least I cannot hope that these important communications will 
 fare any better than the general Homoeopath}^ which I have pub- 
 lished hitherto. From unbelief in the efficacy of the small and atten- 
 uated doses of medicine which I made known to the medical world 
 after a thousand warning trials, as being the most efficient, (distrust- 
 ing my faithful asseverations and reasons), men prefer to endanger 
 their patients for years longer with large and larger doses. Owing 
 to this, they generallj' do not live to see the curative effects, even as 
 was the case with myself before I attained this diminution of dose. 
 The cause of this was, that it was overlooked that these doses by 
 their attenuation were all the more suitable for their Homoeopathic 
 use, owing to the development of their d3mamic power of operation. 
 
 What would men have risked if they had at once followed m>- 
 directions in the beginning, and had made use of just these small

 doses from the first ? Could anything worse have happened than 
 that these doses might have proved inefficient ? They surely could 
 do no harm! But in their injudicious, self-willed application of large 
 doses for homoeopathic use they onh^, in fact 07ily once again, went 
 over that roundabout road so dangerous to their patients, in order to 
 reach the truth which I myself had already successfully passed over, 
 and indeed with trembling, so as to save them this trouble; and if 
 thej^ reall}^ desired to heal, they were nevertheless at last compelled to 
 arrive at the only true goal, after having inflicted manj^ an injury and 
 wasted a good part of their fair life. All this I had already laid be- 
 fore them faithfully and frankly, and had long before given them 
 the reasons. 
 
 Ma}^ the}^ do better wdth the great discovery herewith presented 
 to them ! And if the}^ should not treat this discovery any better — 
 well, then a more conscientious and intelligent posterity will alone 
 have the advantage to be obtained by a faithful, punctual observance 
 of the teachings here laid down, of being able to deliver mankind 
 from the numberless torments which have rested upon the poor sick, 
 owing to the numberless, tedious diseases, even as far back as history 
 extends. This great boon had not been put within their reach by 
 what Homoeopathy had taught hitherto.

 INQUIRY INTO THE PROCESS OF HOMGEOPATHIC 
 HEALING. 
 
 We have no means of reaching with our senses or of gaining 
 essential knowledge, as to the process of life in the interior of man, 
 and it is only at times granted us to draw speculative conclusions 
 from what is happening, as to the manner in which it may have oc- 
 curred or taken place ; but we are unable to furnish conclusive proofs 
 of our explanations, from the changes which are observed in the 
 inorganic kingdom; for the changes in living organic subjects have

 part, except the second, had its own preface, discussing some questions of general interest

 nothing in common with those taking place in what is inorganic, 
 since they take place by processes entirely different. 
 
 It is, therefore, quite natural, that in presesenting the Homoeo- 
 pathic Therapeutics I did not venture to explain how the cure of 
 diseases is effected by operating on the patient with substances 
 possessing the power to excite very similar morbid symptoms in 
 healthy persons. I furnished, indeed, a conjecture about it, but I 
 did not desire to call it an explanation, i. <?., a definite explanation 
 of the modus operandi. Nor was this at all necessary, for it is only 
 incumbent upon us to cure similar symptoms correctly and success- 
 fully, according to a law of nature which is being constantly con- 
 firmed; but not to boast with abstract explanations, while we leave 
 the patients uncured; for that is all which so-called physicians have 
 hitherto accomplished. 
 
 These physicians have made many objections to the explanation 
 I have given, and they would have preferred to reject the whole 
 homoeopathic method of curing (the only one possible), merely be- 
 cause they were not satisfied with my efforts at explaining the mode 
 of procedure which takes place in the interiors of man during a 
 homoeopathic cure. 
 
 I write the present lines, not in order to satisfy those critics, but 
 in order that I may present to myself and to my successors, the 
 genuine practical Homoeopaths, another and more probable attempt 
 of this kind toward an explanation. This I present, because the 
 human mind feels within it the irresistible, harmless and praise- 
 worthy impulse, to give some account to itself as to the mode in 
 which man accomplishes good by his actions. 
 
 As I have elsewhere shown, it is undeniable, that our vital force, 
 without the assistance of active remedies of human art, cannot over- 
 come even the slight acute diseases (if it does not succumb to them) 
 and restore some sort of health, without sacrificing a part (often a 
 large part) of the fluid and the solid parts of the organism through 
 a so-called crisis. How our vital force effects this, will ever remain 
 unknown to us; but so much is sure, that this force cannot over- 
 come even these diseases in a direct manner, nor without such sacri- 
 fices. The Chronic Diseases, which spring from miasms, cannot be 
 healed unaided, even by such sacrifices, nor can real health be 
 restored by this force alone. But it is just as certain, that even if 
 this force is enabled by the true (homoeopathic) healing art, guided 
 by the human understanding, to overpower and overcome (to cure) 
 not only the quickly transient but also the chronic diseases arising 
 from miasms in a direct manner and without such sacrifices, without 
 loss of body and life, nevertheless, it is always this power, the vital

 force, which conquers. It is in this case as with the army of a 
 countr}^ which drives the enem3^ out of the country; this army ought 
 to be called victorious, although it ma}^ not have won the victory 
 without foreign auxiliaries. It is the organic vital force of our bod}^ 
 which cures natural diseases of every kind directly and without any 
 sacrifices, as soon as it is enabled b}" means of the correct (homoeo- 
 pathic) remedies to win the victory. This force would not, indeed, 
 have been able to conquer without this assistance; for our organic 
 vital force, taken alone, is onh^ sufficient to maintain the unimpeded 
 progress of life, so long as man is not morbidh^ affected b}^ the 
 hostile operation of forces causing disease. 
 
 Unassisted, the vital force is no match to these hostile powers; it 
 hardlj^ opposes a force equal to the hostile operation, and this, indeed, 
 with man}^ signs of its own sufferings (w^hich we call morbid symp- 
 toms). By its own power, our \'ital force would never be able to 
 overcome the foe of chronic disease, nor even to conquer transient 
 diseases, without considerable losses inflicted on some parts of the 
 organism, if it remained without external aid, without the assistance 
 of genuine remedies. To give such support is the duty enjoined on 
 the ph3\sician's understanding by the Presenter of life. 
 
 As I have said above, our vital force hardly opposes an equal op- 
 position to the foe causing the disease, and 3^et no enem\^ can be over- 
 come except hy a superior force. Onl}^ homoeopathic medicine can 
 give this superior power to the invalidated vital force. 
 
 Of itself this vital principle, being onh^ an organic vital force in- 
 tended to presence an undisturbed health, opposes only a weak 
 resistance to the invading morbific enemy; as the disease grows and 
 increases, it opposes a greater resistance, but at best, it is only an 
 equal resistance; wnth weakly patients it is not even equal, but 
 weaker. This force is neither capable, nor destined, nor created for 
 an overpowering resistance, which will do no harm to itself. 
 
 But if we physicians are able to present and oppose to this in- 
 stinctive vital force its morbific enemy, as it were magnified through 
 the action of homoeopathic medicines — even if it should be enlarged 
 ever>' time only by a little — ^if in this w^ay the image of the morbific 
 foe be magnified to the apprehension of the vital principle through 
 homoeopathic medicines, which in a delusive manner simulate the 
 original disease, we gradually cause and compel this instinctive 
 \4tal force to increase its energies by degrees, and to increase them 
 more and more, and at last to such a degree that it becomes far more 
 powerful than the original disease. The consequence of this is, that 
 the vital force again becomes sovereign in its domain, can again 
 hold and direct the reins of sanitary progress, while the apparent 
 
PREFACE TO FIFTH VOLUME. XIX 
 
 increase of the disease caused bj^ homoeopathic medicines, disappears 
 of itself, as soon as we, seeing the preponderance of the restored 
 vital force, i. e., of the restored health, cease to use these remedies. 
 The fund or the fundamental essence of this spiritual vital princi- 
 ple, imparted to us men by the infinitely merciful Creator, is in- 
 credibl}^ great, if we physicians understand how to maintain its 
 integrity in days of health, by directing men to a health}^ mode of 
 living, and how to invoke and augment it in diseases by purely homoeo- 
 pathic treatment.

 DII.UTIONS AND POTENCIES (DYNAMIZATIONS). 
 
 Dilutions, properly so-called, exist almost solely in objects of 
 taste and of color. A solution of salty and bitter substances becomes 
 continually more deprived of its taste the more water is added, and 
 eventually it has hardly any taste, no matter how much it may be 
 shaken. So, also, a solution of coloring matter, by the admixture 
 of more and more water, becomes at last almost colorless, and any 
 amount of shaking will not increase its color. 
 
 These are, and continue to be, real attenuations or dilutions, but 
 no dynamizations. 
 
 Homoeopathic Dynamizations are processes by which the medic- 
 inal properties, which are latent in natural substances while in their 
 crude state, become aroused, and then become enabled to act in an 
 almost spiritual manner on our life; i. <?. , on our sensible and irritable 
 fibre. This development of the properties of crude natural sub- 
 stances (dynamization) takes place, as I have before taught, in the 
 case of dry substances by means of trituration in a mortar, but in the 
 case of fluid substances, by means of shaking or succussion, which is 
 also a trituration. These preparations cannot be simply designated 
 as dilutions, although every preparation of this kind, in order that it 
 may be raised to a higher potency, i. c, in order that the medicinal 
 properties still latent within it may be 3'et farther awakened and de- 
 veloped, must first undergo a further attenuation, in order that the 
 trituration or succussion may enter still further into the very essence 
 of the medicinal substance, and may thus also liberate and expose 
 the more subtle part of the medicinal powers that lie hidden more

 deeply, which could not be effected by any amount of trituration and 
 succussion of the substances in their concentrated form. 
 
 We frequently read in homoeopathic books that, in the case of one 
 or another person in a certain case of disease, some high (dilution) 
 dynamization of a medicine was of no use at all, but a lower potency 
 proved effectual, while others have seen more success from higher 
 potencies. But no one in such cases investigates the cause of the 
 great difference of these effects. What prevents the preparer of the 
 medicines (and this ought to be the homoeopathic physician himself; 
 he himself ought to forge and whet the arms with which to fight the 
 diseases) — what prevents him, in preparing a potency, from giving 
 lo, 20, 50 and more succussive strokes against a somewhat hard, 
 elastic body to every vial containing one drop of the lower potency 
 with 99 drops of alcohol, so as to obtain strong potencies? This 
 would be vastly more effective than giving only a few nerveless suc- 
 cussive strokes, which will ])roduce little more than dilutions, which 
 ought not to be the case. 
 
 The perfection of our unique art of healing and the welfare of 
 the patients seem to make it worth while for the physician to take 
 the trouble necessary to secure the utmost efficiency in his medi- 
 cines. 
 
 Modern wiseacres have even sneered at the 30th potency, and 
 would only use the lower, Iciss developed and more massive prepara- 
 tions in larger doses, wher<^by they have been, however, unable to 
 effect all that our art can accomplish. If, however, every potency is 
 dynamized with the same number of succusive strokes, we obtain, 
 even in the fiftieth potency, medicines of the most penetrating effi- 
 cacy, so that every minute pellet moistened with it, after being dis- 
 solved in a quantity of water, can and must be taken in small parts, 
 if we do not wish to produce too violent an action with sensitive 
 patients, while we must remember that such a preparation contains 
 almost all the properties latent in the drug now fully developed, and 
 these can only then come into full activity.

Nature of Chronic Diseases. 
 
 The Homoeopathic healing art, as taught in my own writings and 
 in those of m}' pupils, when faithfully followed, has hitherto shown its 
 natural superiorit}^ over any allopathic treatment in a very decided 
 and striking manner; and this not only in those diseases which sud- 
 denly attack men (the acute diseavSes), but also in epidemic diseases 
 and in sporadic fevers. 
 
 Venereal diseases also have been radically healed by Homoeop- 
 athy much more surely, with less trouble and without any sequelae; 
 for without disturbing or destroying the local manifestation it heals 
 the internal fundamental disease from within only, through the best 
 specific remedy. But the number of the other chronic diseases on 
 this great earth has been immeasurably greater, and remains so. 
 
 Treatment by allopathic physicians hitherto merely served to 
 increase the distress from this kind of disease; for this treatment 
 consisted of a whole multitude of nauseous mixtures (compounded 
 by the druggist from violently acting medicines in large doses, of 
 whose separate true effects they were ignorant), together with the 
 use of manifold baths, the sudorific and salivating remedies, the 
 pain-killing narcotics, the injections, fomentations, fumigations, the 
 blistering plasters, the exutories and fontanels, but especialh* the 
 everlasting laxatives, leeches, cuppings and starving treatments, or 
 whatever names may be given to all these medicinal torments, Avhich 
 continually varied like the fashions. By these means the disease 
 was either aggravated and the vital force, spite of so-called tonics 
 used at intervals, was more and more diminished; or, if any striking 
 change was produced by them, instead of the former sufferings, there 
 appeared a worse state — nameless diseases caused by medicine, fai 
 worse and more incurable than the original natural one — while the 
 ph3^sician consoled the patient with the words: "The former sick- 
 ness I have been fortunate enough to remove; it is a great pity that 
 a new (?) disease has appeared, but I hope to be as successful in 
 removing this latter as in the former." And so, while the scdjic 
 disease assumed various forms, and while new di.seases were being 
 
2 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 added by the use of improper, injurious medicines, the sufferings of 
 the patient were continual!}^ aggravated until his pitiable lamenta- 
 tions were hushed forever with his dying breath, and the relatives 
 were soothed with the comforting pretense: ' ' Everything imaginable 
 has been used and applied in the case of the deceased. ' ' 
 
 It is not so with Homoeopath}^ the great gift of God I 
 
 Even in these other kinds of chronic diseases, its disciples, by fol- 
 lowing the teachings presented in my former writings and my former 
 oral lectures, accomplished far more than all the afore -mentioned 
 methods of curing; i. e., when the}^ found the patient not too much 
 run down and spoiled by allopathic treatment, as was unfortunately 
 too often the case where the patient had an}^ mone}^ to spend. 
 
 Using the more natural treatment, Homoeopathic physicians have 
 frequently been able in a short time to remove the chronic disease 
 w^hich they had before them, after examining it according to all the 
 symptoms perceptible to the senses; and the means of cure were the 
 most suitable among the Homoeopathic remedies, used in their 
 smallest doses, which had been so far proved as to their pure, true 
 effects. And all this was done without robbing the patient of his 
 fluids and strength, as is done b}^ the allopathy of the common 
 phj^sicians; so that the patient, fully healed, could again enjoy glad- 
 some days. These cures indeed have far excelled all that allopathists 
 had ever — in rare cases — been able to effect by a lucky grab into their 
 medicine chests. 
 
 The complaints yielded for the most part to very small doses of 
 that remedy which had proved its ability to produce the same series 
 of morbid sj^mptoms in the healthy body; and, if the disease was not 
 altogether too inveterate and had not been too much and in too great 
 a degree mismanaged by allopathy, it often yielded for a considerable 
 time, so that mankind had good reason to deem itself fortunate even 
 for that much help, and, indeed, it often proclaimed its thankfulness. 
 A patient thus treated might and often did consider himself in pretty 
 good health, when he fairly judged of his present improved state and 
 compared it with his far more painful condition before Homoeopathy 
 liad afforded him its help.^ 
 
 Even some gross errors of diet, taking cold, the appearance of 
 
 ^ Of this kind were the cures of diseases caused by a psora not yet fully 
 developed, which had been treated by my followers with remedies which 
 did not belong to the number of those which, later, proved to be the chief 
 anti-psora remedies; because these remedies were not yet known. They had 
 been merely treated w4th such medicines as Homoeopathically best covered 
 and temporarily removed the then apparent moderate symptoms, thus causing 
 a kind of a cure which brought back the manifest psora into a latent condition 
 and thus produced a kind of healthy condition, especially with young, vigorous

 weather especially rough, wet and cold or stormy, or even the ap- 
 proach of autumn, if ever so mild, but, more yet, winter and a wintry 
 spring, and then some violent exertion of the body or mind, but 
 particularly some shock to the health caused b3^ some severe external 
 injury, or a very sad event that bowed down the soul, repeated 
 fright, great grief, sorrow and continuous vexation, often caused in 
 a weakened body the re-appearance of one or more of the ailments 
 which seemed to have been already overcome; and this new con- 
 dition was often aggravated b}^ some quite new concomitants, which 
 if not more threatening than the former ones which had been 
 removed homoeopathically were often just as troublesome and now 
 more obstinate. This would be especially the case whenever the 
 seemingh' cured disease had for its foundation a psora which had 
 been more fully developed. When such a relapse would take place 
 the Homoeopathic physician would give the remedy most fitting 
 among the medicines then known, as if directed against a new dis- 
 ease, and this would again be attended by a pretty good success, 
 which for the time would again bring the patient into a better state. 
 In the former case, however, in which merely the troubles which 
 seemed to have been removed were renewed, the remedy which had 
 been serviceable the first time would prove less useful, and when 
 repeated again it would help still less. Then perhaps, even under 
 the operation of the Homoeopathic remedy which seemed best 
 adapted, and even where the mode of living had been quite correct, 
 new symptoms of disease would be added which could be removed 
 only inadequately and imperfectly; yea, these new symptoms were 
 at times not at all improved, especially when some of the obstacles 
 above mentioned hindered the recovery. 
 
 Some joyous occurrence, or an external condition of circumstances 
 improved by fortune, a pleasant journey, a favorable season or a dry, 
 uniform temperature, might occasionally produce a remarkable pause 
 of shorter or longer duration in the disease of the patient, during 
 which the Homoeopath might consider him as fairly recovered; 
 and the patient himself, if he good-naturedl}^ overlooked some pas- 
 sable moderate ailments, might consider himself as healthy. Still such 
 a favorable pause would never be of long duration, and the return 
 and repeated returns of the complaints in the end left even the best 
 selected Homoeopathic remedies then known, and given in the most 
 
 persons, such as would appear as real health to every observer who did not 
 examine accurately; and this state often lasted for many years. Biit with 
 chronic diseases caused by a psora already fully developed, the medicines 
 which were then known never sufficed for a complete cure, any more than 
 these same medicines suffice at the present time. 
 
4 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASKS. 
 
 appropriate doses, the less effective the oftener the}' were repeated. 
 Thej^ served at last hardly even as weak palliatives. But usualh', after 
 repeated attempts to conquer the disease w^hich appeared in a form 
 always somewhat changed, residual complaints appeared which the 
 Homoeopathic medicines hitherto proved, though not few, had to 
 leave uneradicated, 3'ea, often undiminished. Thus there ever fol- 
 lowed var3dng complaints ever more troublesome, and, as time pro- 
 ceeded, more threatening, and this even while the mode of lining was 
 correct and with a punctual obsen^ance of directions. The chronic 
 disease could, despite all efforts, be but little delaj^ed in its progress 
 b}' the Homoeopathic phj'sician and grew w^orse from year to year. 
 
 This was, and remained, the quicker or slower process in such 
 treatments in all non-venereal, severe chronic diseases, e^-en when 
 these were treated in exact accordance wdth the Homoeopathic art as 
 hitherto known. Their beginning was promising, the continuation 
 less favorable, the outcome hopeless. 
 
 Nevertheless this teaching was founded upon the steadfast pil- 
 lai^ of truth and will evermore be so. The attestation of its excellence, 
 3'ea, of its infallibilit}- (so far as this can be predicated of human 
 affairs), it has laid before the eyes of the world through facts. 
 
 Homoeopathy alone taught first of all how to heal the w^ell- 
 defined idiopathic diseases, the old, smooth scarlet fever of Syden- 
 ham, the more recent purples, whooping cough, croup, sycosis, and 
 autumnal dysenteries, by means of the specifically aiding Homoeo- 
 pathic remedies. Even acute pleurisy, and typhous contagious epi- 
 demics must now allow themselves to be speedily turned into 
 health by a few small doses of rightly-selected Homoeopathic 
 medicine. 
 
 Whence then this less favorable, this unfavorable, result of the 
 continued treatment of the non-venereal chronic diseases even by 
 Homoeopathy ? What was the reason of the thousands of unsuc- 
 cessful endeavors to heal the other diseases of a chronic nature so 
 that lasting health might resuU ? Might this be caused, perhaps, by 
 the still too small number of Homoeopathic remedial means that 
 have so far been proved as to their pure action? The follov/ers of 
 Homoeopathy have hitherto thus consoled themselves; but this 
 excuse, or so-called consolation, never satisfied the founder of 
 Homoeopath}'— particularly because even the new additions of proved 
 valuable medicines, increasing from 3'ear to year, have not advanced 
 the healing of chronic Tnon- venereal) diseases by a single step, 
 while acute diseases (unless these, at their commencement, threaten 
 unavoidable death) are not only passably removed, by means of 
 a correct application of Homoeopathic remedies, but with the as- 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 5 
 
 sistaiice of the never-resting, preservative vital force in our organism, 
 find a speedy and complete cure. 
 
 Why, then, cannot this vital force, efficiently affected through 
 Homoeopathic medicine, produce any true and lasting recovery in 
 these chronic maladies even with the aid of the Homoeopathic reme- 
 dies which best cover their present symptoms; while this same force 
 which is created for the restoration of our organism is nevertheless 
 so indefatigabl}' and successfully active in completing the recovery 
 even in severe acute diseases ? What is there to prevent this ? 
 
 The answer to this question, which is so natural, inevitably led 
 me to the discovery of the nature of these chronic diseases. 
 
 To find out then the reason why all the medicines known to 
 Homoeopathy failed to bring a real cure in the above-mentioned dis- 
 eases, and to gain an insight more nearly correct and, if possible, 
 quite correct, into the true nature of the thousands of chronic diseases 
 w^hich still remain uncured, despite the incontestable truth of the 
 Homoeopathic Law of Cure, this ver}^ serious task has occupied me 
 since the years 1816 and 18 17, night and day; and behold ! the Giver 
 of all good things permitted me within this space of time to gradually 
 solve this sublime problem through unremitting thought, indefati- 
 gable inquiry, faithful observation and the most accurate experi- 
 ments made for the welfare of humanity.-'^ 
 
 It was a continually repeated fact that the non- venereal chronic 
 diseases, after being time and again removed homoeopathically by 
 the remedies fully proved up to the present time, always returned in 
 a more or less varied form and with new symptoms, or reappeared 
 annually with an increase of complaints. This fact gave me the first 
 clew that the Homoeopathic physician with such a chronic (non- 
 venereal) case, yea in all cases of (non- venereal) chronic disease, has 
 not only to combat the disease presented before his eyes, and must not 
 view and treat it as if it were a well-defined disease, to be speedily 
 and permanently destroyed and healed by ordinary homoeopathic 
 remedies, but that he has always to encounter only some separate 
 fragment of a more deep-seated original disease. 
 
 ''' Yet I did not allow any of these nnintermitted endeavors to become 
 known either to the world or to my followers, not, indeed, because the ingrati- 
 tude so frequently shown to me prevented me, for I heed neither ingratitude 
 nor persecutions on my troublous path of life, which yet has not proved 
 altogether joyless, because of the great goal toward which I have striven. No, 
 I left it unmentioned because it is improper, yea, hurtful to speak or write of 
 things still immature. Not imtil the year 1827 did I comnmnicate the essentials 
 of the discovery to two of my pupils, who had been of the greatest sen-ice 
 to the art of Homoeopathy, for their own benefit and that of their patients, so 
 that the whole discovery might not be lost to the world if perchance a higher 
 call to eternity had called me away before the completion of the book — an event 
 not so very improbable m my seventy-third year. 
 
6 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 
 
 The great extent of this disease is shown in the new symptoms 
 appearing from time to time; so that the Homoeopathic physician 
 must not hope to permanently heal the separate manifestations of this 
 kind in the presumption, hitherto entertained, that they are well- 
 defined, separately existing diseases which can be healed perma- 
 nently and completely. He, therefore, irmst first find out as fiar as 
 possible the whole extent of all the accidents and symptoms belonging 
 to the unk7iown pri?nitive malady before he can hope to discover one 
 or more medicines which may homceopathically cover the whole of 
 the original disease by means of its pecuHar symptoms. By this 
 method he may then be able victoriously to heal and wipe out the 
 malady in its whole extent, consequently also its separate members; 
 that is, all the fragments of a disease appearing in so many various 
 forms. 
 
 But that the original malady sought for must be also of a 
 miasmatic, chronic nature clearly appeared to me from this cir- 
 cumstance, that after it has once advanced and developed to a certain 
 degree it can never be removed by the strength of any robust con- 
 stitution, it can never be overcome by the most wholesome diet and 
 order of hfe, nor will it die out of itself. But it is evermore aggra- 
 vated, from year • to year, through a transition into other and more 
 serious symptoms,'^ even till the end of man's life, like ever}^ other 
 chronic, miasmatic sickness; e. g., the venereal bubo which has not 
 been healed from within by mercury, its specific remedy, but has 
 passed over into venereal disease. This latter, also, never passes 
 away of itself, but, even with the most correct mode of life and with 
 the most robust bodily constitution, increases every year and unfolds 
 evermore into new and worse symptoms, and this, also, to the end of 
 man's life. 
 
 I had come thus far in my investigations and observations with 
 such non- venereal patients, when I discovered, even in the beginning, 
 that the obstacle to the cure of many cases which seemed delusively 
 like specific, well-defined diseases, and yet could not be cured in a 
 Homoeopathic manner with the then proved medicines) , seemed very 
 often to lie in a former eruption of itch, which was not unfrequently 
 confessed; and the beginning of all the subsequent sufferings usually 
 dated from that time. So also with similar chronic patients who did 
 not confess such an infection, or, what was probably more frequent, 
 
 *Not unfrequently phthisis passes over into insanity; dried-up ulcers into 
 dropsy or apoplexy; intermittent fever into asthma; affections of the abdomen 
 into pains in the joints or paralysis; pains in the limbs into hemorrhage, etc.,. 
 and it was not difi&cult to discover that the later diseases must also have their 
 foundation in the original malady and can only be a part of a far greater whole. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 7 
 
 who had, from inattention, not perceived it, or, at least, could not re- 
 member it. After a careful inquiry it usuall}^ turned out that little 
 traces of it (small pustules of itch, herpes, etc.) had showed them- 
 selves with them from time to time, even if but rarely, as an indubit- 
 able sign of a former infection of this kind. 
 
 These circumstances, in connection with the fact that innumera- 
 ble observations of ph3^sicians,* and not infrequently my own experi- , 
 ence, had shown that an eruption of itch suppressed by faulty / 
 practice or one which had disappeared from the skin through other • 
 means was evidently followed, in persons otherwise healthy, b}^ 
 the same or similar symptoms; these circumstances, I repeat, could 
 leave no doubt in my mind as to the internal foe which I had to 
 combat in my medical treatment of such cases. 
 
 Gradually I discovered more effective means against this origi- 
 nal malady that caused so many complaints; against this malady 
 which may be called by the general name of Psora ; i. e. , against 
 the internal itch disease with or without its attendant eruption 
 on the skin. It then became manifest to me, through the aid 
 afforded when using these medicines in similar chronic diseases, in 
 which the patient was unable to show a like cause, that also these 
 cases in which the patient remembered no infection of this kind 
 were of necessity caused by a Psora with which he had been in- 
 fected, perhaps, even in his cradle, or in some other way that had 
 escaped his memory; and this often received corroboration on a more 
 careful inquiry with the parents or aged relatives. 
 
 Most painstaking observations as to the aid afforded by the anti- 
 psoric remedies which were added in the first of these eleven years 
 have taught me evermore, how frequently not only the moderate, 
 but also the more severe and the most severe, chronic diseases are 
 of this origin. This observation taught me that not only most of 
 the many cutaneous eruptions which Willan distinguishes with such 
 extreme care from one another, and which have received separate 
 names, but also almost all adventitious formations, from the common 
 wart on the finger up to the largest sarcomatous tumor, from the 
 malformations of the finger-nails up to the swellings of the bones and 
 the curvature of the spine, and many other softenings and deformi- 
 ties of the bones, both at an early and at a more advanced age, are 
 caused by the Psora. So, also, frequent epistaxis, the accunuilation 
 of blood in the veins of the rectum and the anus, discharges of blood 
 from the same (blind or flowing piles), hemopt3^sis, hematemesis, 
 hematuria, and deficient as well as too frequent menstrual discharges,

 night-sweats of several 3'ears' duration, parchment-like dr^mess of

 chronic ulcers and inflammations, sarcomatous enlargements and 
 tumors, emaciation, excessive sensitiveness as well as deficiencies in 
 the senses of seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting and feeling; excessive 
 as well as extinguished sexual desire; diseases of the mind and of 
 the soul, from imbecility up to ecstacy, from melancholy up to raging 
 insanity; swoons and vertigo; the so-called diseases of the heart; 
 abdominal complaints and all that is comprehended under hysteria 
 and h3^pochondria — in short, thousands of tedious ailments of human- 
 it3^ called by pathology' with various names, are, with few excep- 
 tions, true descendants of this many-formed Psora alone. I was 
 thus instructed by my continued observations, comparisons and ex- 
 periments in the last 3^ears, that the ailments and infirmities of bod}^ 
 and soul which, in their manifest complaints, differ so radicalh' and 
 which, with different patients, appear so ver^' unlike (if the}^ do not 
 belong to the two venereal diseases, syphilis and sycosis^ ^ are but 
 partial manifestations of the ancient miasma of lepros}' and itch; i. e., 
 mereh' descendants of one and the same vast original malady, the 
 almost innumerable symptoms of which form but one whole and are 
 to be regarded and to be medicinally treated as the parts of one and 
 the same disease in the same waj' as in a great epidemic of t^^phus 
 fever. Thus in the year 18 13 one patient vrould be prostrated with 
 onh^ a few symptoms of this plague, a second patient showed only a 
 few but different ailments, while a third, fourth, etc., would com- 
 plain of still other ailments belonging to this epidemic disease, while 
 they were, nevertheless, all sick with one and the same pestilential 
 fever, and the entire and complete image of the t3^phus fever reigning 
 at the time could only be obtained b}' gathering together the symp- 
 toms of all, or at least of many of these patients. Then the one or 
 two remedies, "^ found to be Homoeopathic, healed the whole epidemy, 
 and therefore showed themselves specificalh' helpful with every 
 patient, though the one might be suffering from ss^mptoms differing 
 from those of others, and almost all seemed to be suffering from 
 different diseases. 
 
 Just so, only upon a far larger scale, it is with the Psora, this 
 fundamental disease of so many chronic maladies, each of which 
 seems to be essentialh' different from the others, but really is not; 
 as may readily be seen from the agreement of several symptoms 
 
 "In the t3'plms of 1813 bryonia s^vlI rhus toxicodendron were the specific 
 remedies for all the patients.

 common to them which appear as the disease runs its course, and 
 also from their being healed through the same remedy. 
 
 All chronic diseases of mankind, even those left to themselves, 
 not aggravated b}" a perverted treatment, show, as said, such a con- 
 stance^ and perseverance, that as soon as they have developed and 
 have not been thoroughl}^ healed by the medical art, they evermore 
 increase with the j^ears, and during the whole of man's lifetime; and 
 the}^ cannot be diminished by the strength belonging even to the 
 most robust constitution. Still less can they be overcome and ex- 
 tinguished. Thus the}^ never pass away of themselves, but increase 
 and are aggravated even till death. They must therefore all have 
 for their origin and foundation constant chronic miasms, whereby 
 their parasitical existence in the human organism is enabled to con- 
 tinually rise and grow. 
 
 In Europe and also on the other continents so far as it is known, 
 according to all investigations, only three chronic miasms are found, 
 the diseases caused b)" which manifest themselves through local 
 symptoms, and from which most, if not all, the chronic diseases 
 originate; namely, first, syphilis, which I have also called the 
 vejiereal chancre disease; then SYCOSIS, or the fig -iv art disease, and 
 finally the chronic disease which lies at the foundation of the erup- 
 tion of itch; /. e., the Psora ; which I shall treat of first as the 
 most important. 
 
 Psora is that most ancieiit, most universal, most destructive, and 
 3^et m,ost 7nisa.ppre]iended chronic miasmatic disease which for 
 many thousands of years has disfigured and tortured mankind, and 
 which during the last centuries has become the mother of all 
 the thousands of incredibly various (acute and) chronic (non- 
 venereal) diseases, by which the whole civilized human race on 
 the inhabited globe is being more and more afflicted. 
 
 Psora is the oldest miasmatic chronic disease known to us. Just 
 as tedious as syphilis and sycosis, and therefore not to be ex- 
 tinguished before the last breath of the longest human life, unless it 
 is thoroughly cured, since not even the most robust constitution is 
 able to destroy and extinguish it by its own proper strength. Psora, 
 or the Itch disease, is beside this the oldest and most hydra-headed of 
 all the chronic miasmatic diseases. 
 
 In the many thousands of years during which it may have 
 afflicted mankind, — for the most ancient histor}' of the most ancient 
 people does not reach to its origin, — it has so much increased in the ex- 
 tent of its pathological manifestations — -an extent which may to some

lO HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASEvS. 
 
 degree be explained by its increased development during such an 
 inconceivable number of years in so many millions of organisms 
 through which it has passed,— that its secondary symptoms are 
 hardly to be numbered. And, if we except those diseases which 
 have been created by a perverse medical practice or by deleterious 
 labors in quicksilver, lead, arsenic, etc. , which appear in the common 
 pathology under a hundred proper names as supposedly separate and 
 well-defined diseases (and also those springing from syphilis and the 
 'Still rarer ones springing from sycosis), all the remaining natural 
 chronic diseases, whether with names or vdthout them , find in Psora 
 their real origin, their onh' source. 
 
 The oldest monuments of history which we possess show the Psora 
 even then in great development. Moses^ 3400 years ago pointed 
 out several varieties. At that time and later on among the Israelites 
 the disease seems to have mostly kept the external parts of the body 
 for its chief seat. This was also true of the malady as it prevailed in 
 uncultivated Greece, later in Arabia and, lastly in Europe during 
 the Middle Ages. The dilferent names which were given by differ- 
 ent nations to the more or less malignant varieties of leprosy, (the 
 external symptom of Psora) which in man}' ways deformed the ex- 
 ternal parts of the bod}', do not concern us and do not affect the 
 matter, since the nature of this miasmatic itching eruption alwaj'S 
 remained essentialh^ the same. 
 
 The occidental Psora, which during the x\Iiddle Ages had raged 
 in Europe for several centuries under the form of malignant ery- 
 sipelas (called St. A7itho7iy' s Fire) , reassumed the form of lepros}^ 
 through the leprosy which Avas brought back by the returning 
 crusaders in the thirteenth century. And though it thus spread in 
 Europe even more than before, (for in the year 1226 there were in 
 France alone 2,000 houses for the reception of lepers), this Psora, 
 which now raged as a dreadful eruption, found at least an ex- 
 
 *In Leviticus not only in the thirteenth chapter, but also (chapt. 21, verse 
 20) w^here he speaks of the bodily defects which must not be found in a priest 
 who is to offer sacrifice, malignant itch is designated -by the word garab, which 
 the Alexandrian translators (in the Septuagint j translated with psora agi'ia., 
 but the Vulgate with scabies jugis. The talmudic interpreter, Jonathan, ^^- 
 plained it as ^73/ ?V<:^ spread over the body; while the expression, jk^/*?/-^^^, is 
 used by Moses for lichen, tetter, herpes (seeM. Rosenmueller, Scholia inLevit., 
 p. II., edit, sec, p. 124). The commentators in the so-called English Bible-work 
 also agree with this definition, Calmet among others saying: " Lepros}- is simi- 
 lar to an invetei ate itch with violent itching. ' ' The ancients also mention the 
 peculiar, characteristic voluptuous itching which attended itch then as now, 
 while after the scratching a painful burning follows; amiong others Plato, who 
 calls itch ^/j'/(:j'/z/^r6'//, while Cicero marks the dulcedo of scabies. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. II 
 
 ternal alleviation in the means conducive to cleanliness, which also 
 ■were brought b}' the crusaders from the Orient; namely, the (cotton ? 
 linen ?) shirts before unknown in Europe, and the more frequent use 
 of warm baths. Through both of those means, as well as through the 
 more exquisite diet and refinement in the mode of living introduced 
 by increased cultivation, the external horrors of the Psora within the 
 space of several centuries were at last so far moderated, that, at the 
 end of the fifteenth centur}^ it appeared only in the form of the 
 common eruption of itch, just at the time when the other miasmatic 
 chronic disease, syphilis, began (in 1493) to raise its dreadful head. 
 
 Thus this eruption, externall}^ reduced in cultivated countries to 
 a common itch, could be much more easily removed from the skin 
 through various means; so that with the medicinal external treat- 
 ment since introduced, especially in the middle and higher classes, 
 through baths, washes and ointments of sulphur and lead, and by 
 preparations of copper, zinc and mercury, the external manifestations 
 of Psora on the skin were often so quickly suppressed, and are so 
 now, that in most cases either of children or of grown persons the 
 histor}^ of itch infection may remain undiscovered. 
 
 But the state of mankind was not improved thereby; in many 
 respects it grew far worse. For, although in ancient times the eruption 
 of psora appearing as leprosy was very troublesome to those suffer- 
 ing from it, owing to the lancinating pains in, and the violent itching 
 all around the tumors, and scabs, the rest of the body enjoyed a fair 
 share of general health. This was owing to the obstinately persistent 
 eruption on the skin which served as a substitute for the internal 
 psora. And what is of more importance, the horrible and disgust- 
 ing appearance of the lepers made such a terrible impression on 
 healthy people that they dreaded even their approach; so that the 
 seclusion of most of these patients, and their separation in leper 
 hospitals, kept them apart from other human society and infection 
 from them was thus limited and comparatively rare. 
 
 In consequence of the very much milder form of the psora during 
 the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, when it appeared as itch, 
 the few pustules appearing after infection made but little show and 
 could easily be concealed. Nevertheless the}^ were scratched con- 
 tinually because of their unbearable itching, and thus the fluid was 
 diffused around, and the psoric miasma was communicated more 
 certainly and more easily to man}^ other persons, the more it was 
 concealed. For the things rendered unclean by the psoric fluid 
 infected the persons who unwittingl}' touched them, and thus con- 
 taminated far more persons than the lepers, who, on account of 
 their horrible appearance, were carefully avoided. 
 
12 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 Psora has thus become the most infectious and most general of 
 all the chronic miasmas. For the miasm has usually been com- 
 municated to others before the one from whom it emanates has asked 
 for or received any external repressive remedy against his itching 
 eruption (lead-water, ointment of the white precipitate of mercury) , 
 and without confessing that he had an eruption of itch, often even 
 without knowing it himself; yea, without even the physician's 
 or surgeon's knowing the exact nature of the eruption which has 
 been repressed by the lotion of lead, etc. 
 
 It may well be conceived that the poorer and lower classes, who 
 allow the itch to spread on their skin for a long time, until they be- 
 come an abomination to all around them and are compelled to use 
 something to remove it, must have in the meanwhile infected many. 
 
 Mankind, therefore, is worse off from the change in the external 
 form of the psora, — from leprosy down to the eruption of itch — 
 not only because this is less visible and more secret and therefore 
 more frequently infectious, but also especially because the psora, 
 now mitigated externally into a mere itch, and on that account more 
 generally spread, nevertheless still retains unchanged its original 
 dreadful nature. Now, after being more easily repressed, the disease 
 grows all the more unperceived within, and so, in the last three 
 centuries, after the destruction* of its chief symptom (the external 
 skin-eruption) it plays the sad role of causing innumerable secondary 
 symptoms; i. e., it originates a legion of chronic diseases, the source 
 of which physicians neither surmise nor unravel, and which, there- 
 fore, they can no more cure than they could cure the original disease 
 Avhen accompanied by its cutaneous eruption; but these chronic dis- 
 eases, as dail}^ experience shows, were necessarily aggravated by the 
 multitude of their faulty remedies. 
 
 So great a flood of numberless ner^^ous troubles, painful ailments, 
 spasms, ulcers (cancers), adventitious formations, d^^scrasias, 
 paralyses, consumptions and cripplings of soul, mind and body 
 were never seen in ancient times when the psora mostly confined 
 
 "^ The external eruption of itch may not only be driven away by the faulty 
 practices of physicians and quacks, but unfortunately it not unfrequently of its 
 •own accord withdraws from the skin ( see below, e. g. , in the observation of the 
 older physicians, Nos. 9, 17, 26, 36, 50, 58, 61, 64, 65). Syphilis and sycosis 
 both have an advantage over the itch disease, in this, that the chancre (or 
 bubo) in the one and the fig- wart in the other never leave the external parts 
 Tintil they have been either mischievously destroyed through external repres- 
 sive remedies or have been in a rational manner removed through the simulta- 
 neous internal cure of the whole disease. The venereal disease cannot, there- 
 fore, break out so long as the chancre is not artificially destroyed by external 
 applications, nor can the secondary ailments of sycosis break out so long as the 
 
 I

 itself to its dreadful cutaneous symptom, leprosy. Only during the 
 last few centuries has mankind been flooded with these infirmities, 
 owing to the causes just mentioned. "^ 
 
 / It was thus that psora became the most imiversal mother of chronic 
 
 ( diseases. 
 
 The psora ^ which is now so easily and so rashl}^ robbed of its 
 
 fig- wart has not been destroyed by faulty practice; for these local symptoms, 
 which act as substitutes for the internal disease, remain standing even until the 
 end of man's life, and prevent the breaking out of the internal disease. It is, 
 therefore, just as easy to heal them then, even in their whole extent; i. <?. , 
 thoroughly, through their specific internal medicines, which need only to be 
 continued until these local symptoms ( chancre and fig- wart ) which are in their 
 nature imchangeable except through artificial external application, are thor- 
 oughly healed. Then we may be quite certain that we have thoroughly cured 
 the internal disease; i. e., syphilis and sycosis. 
 
 This good feature psora has lost in the present more and more mitigated 
 nature of its chief symptom, which has changed from leprosy to itch in the last 
 three centuries. The eruption of itch by no means remains as persistently in 
 its place on the skin as the chancre and the fig-wart. Even if the eruption of 
 itch has not (as is nearly always the case) been driven away from the skin 
 through the faulty practices of physicians and quacks by means of desiccating 
 washes, sulphur ointments, drastic purgatives or cupping, it frequently disap- 
 pears, as we say, of itself; i. e. , through causes which are not noticed. It 
 often disappears through some unlucky physical or psychical occurrence, 
 through a violent fright, through continual vexations, deeply-affecting grief, 
 through catching a severe cold, or through a cold temperature (see below, 
 observation 67); through cold, lukewarm and warm river baths or mineral 
 baths, by a fever arising from any cause, or through a different acute disease 
 {e. g., smallpox; see below, observation 39); through persistent diarrhoea, 
 sometimes also perhaps through a peculiar want of activity in the skin, and 
 the results in such a case are just as mischievous as if the eruption had been 
 driven away externally by the irrational practice of a physician. The second- 
 ary ailments of the internal psora and any one of the innumerable chronic 
 diseases flowing from this origin will then break out sooner or later. 
 
 But let no one think that the psora which has been thus mitigated in its 
 local symptom, its cutaneous eruption, differs materially from ancient leprosy. 
 Even leprosy, when not inveterate, could in ancient times not seldom be driven 
 from the skin by cold baths or by repeated dipping in a river and through 
 warm mineral baths (see below, No. 35); but also then the evil effects resulting 
 were as little regarded as the more modern physicians regard the acute diseases 
 and the insidious maladies which do not fail to develop sooner or later from the 
 indwelling psora when an eruption of the present itch disease has disappeared 
 of itself or has been violently driven away. 
 
 '" That the drinking of warm coffee and Chinese tea which has spread so 
 generally in the last two centuries, and which has so largely increased the irri- 
 tabilit}^ of the muscular fibre as well as the excessive excitability of the nerves, 
 has further augmented the tendency of this period to a multitude of chronic 
 diseases, and has thus aided the psora, I least of all can doiiht, as 1 have

 ameliorating cutaneous symptom, the eruption of itch, which acts 
 vicarious!}' for the internal disease, has been producing within the 
 last three hundred 3'ears more and more secondary sj-mptoms, and 
 indeed so man}^ that at least seve7i-£ighths of all the chronic maladies 
 spring from it as their only source, while the rejnaiyiing eighth 
 springs from syphilis and sycosis or from a complication of two of 
 these three miasmatic chronic diseases, or (which is rare) from a 
 complication of all three of them. Even syphilis, which on account 
 of its eas}' curability ^delds to the smallest dose of the best prepara- 
 tion of m^ercur}', and sycosis, which on account of the slight difSculty 
 in its cure through a few doses of thuja and nitric acid in alterna- 
 tion, onl}^ pass into a tedious malady difficult to cure when they are 
 complicated with psora. Thus psora is a7nong all diseases the one 
 which is most 77iisapprehended, a7id, the7'efo7'e, has bee7i 77iedically 
 treated i7i the ivo7'st and 77iost i)iJ7C7^ious 77ia7i7ier. 
 
 It is incredible to what an extent modern physicians of the com- 
 mon school have sinned against the welfare of humanity; since, with 
 scarcely an exception, teachers of medicine and the more prom.inent 
 modern physicians and medical writers have laid down the rule and 
 taught it as an infallible theorem that : ' ' Every eruption of itch is 
 merely a local ailment of the skin, in which ailmicnt the remain- 
 ing organism takes no part at all, so that it may and must be 
 driven away from the skin at any time and without any scruple, 
 through local applications of sulphur ointment or of the yet more 
 active ointment of Jasser, through sulphur fumigations, by solu- 
 tions of lead and zinc, but most quickly by the precipitates of 
 mercury. If the eruption is once removed from the skin every- 
 thing is well and the person is restored and the whole disease 
 removed. Of course, if the eruption is neglected and allowed 
 to spread upon the skin, then it may eventually turn out that the 
 malignant matter may find opportunity to insinuate itself through 
 the absorbent vessels into the mass of humors, and thus to cor- 
 rupt the blood, the humors and the health. Then, indeed, man 
 may finally be afflicted with ailments from these malignant humors, 
 though these might soon again be removed from the body by purga- 
 tives and abluents; but through prompt removal of the eruption 
 
 spect to the bodily and mental sufferings of humanity, in my little work on 
 "The Effects of Coffee" [Die Wirkungen des Kaffee's. Leipzig, 1803). This, 
 perhaps undue, prominence given was owing to the fact that I had not then as 
 yet discovered the chief source of chronic diseases in the pso7XL. Only in con- 
 nection with the excessive use of coffee and tea, which both offer palliatives for 
 several symptoms oi psora, aovX^ psora spread such innum^erable, such obstinate 
 chronic sufferings among mankind ; foi' psora alone could not have produced 
 this effect.

 from the skin all sequelae are prevented, and the internal body 
 remains entirely health}^ ' ' 
 
 These horrible untruths have not only been, and are still being 
 taught, but they are also carried out in practice. The consequence 
 is that at the present day the patients in all the most celebrated hos- 
 pitals, even in those countries and cities that seem most enlightened, 
 as well as the private itch-patients of the lower and higher classes, 
 the patients in all the penitentiaries and orphan asylums, in other 
 civil and military hospitals, wherever such eruptions are found — in 
 short, the innumerable multitude of patients, without exception, are 
 treated, not only by physicians unknown to fame, but by all, even 
 those most celebrated, With, the^bove mentioned external remedies,* 
 using perhaps at the same time large doses of flowers of sulphur, and 
 strong purgatives (to cleanse the body, as they say). These phy- 
 sicians think that the more quickly these eruptions are driven from 
 the skin the better. Then they dismiss the patients from their 
 treatment as cured, with brazen assurance and the declaration that 
 everything is now all right, f without regarding or being willing to 
 notice the ailments which sooner or later are sure to follow; i. <?., the 
 
 * Then, as these gentlemen dream in their perverted minds, in which they 
 have disposed of the nature of this most important disease in their arbitrary 
 way and without consuUing nature, then these frivolous gentlemen assure us, 
 the matter of the itch has not yet had time to penetrate inwardly and to be 
 received by the absorbent vessels to the detriment of the whole mass of humors. 
 But how then, O conscientious men! if even the first httle pustule of itch with 
 its unbearable voluptuous itching, forcing a man irresistibly to scratch, and 
 with the following burning pain, is in every case and every thne the proof of 
 a universal itch-disease which has been previously developed in the interior of 
 the whole organism, as we shall see below? How then, if in accordance with 
 this fact an}^ external repression of the itch-eruption can not only do nothing 
 toward alleviating the internal general disease, but rather as thousands of facts 
 go to prove, compel it to develop and break forth quickly into innumerable, 
 different, acute sufferings, or gradually into chronic sufferings, which make 
 mankind so helpless and miserable? Can you then heal these? Experience 
 says no; you cannot do it. 
 
 t In some vigorous itch patients the vital force, following the law of nature 
 on which it rests (her instinct showing more wisdom than the intelligence of 
 her destroyers), after some weeks, drives back to the skin the eruption seem- 
 ingly destroyed by itch ointments and purgatives; the patient returns to the 
 hospital and the mischievous destruction of the eruption, by means of ointments 
 and lotions of solutions of lead and zinc, is renewed. I have seen in military 
 hospitals this eruption thus destroyed in an irrational and cruel manner three 
 times in succession within a few months, while the quack who applied the oint- 
 ment pretended that the patient must have been infected anew with itch three 
 times in this short period, which was really impossible. 
 
1 6 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 Psora which shows itself from within in a thousand different diseases.^ 
 If the deceived wretches then sooner or later return with the malady 
 following unavoidably on such a treatment; e. g., with swellings, 
 obstinate pains in one part or another, with hypochondriac or hys- 
 terical troubles, gout, consumption, tubercular phthisis, continual or 
 spasmodic asthma, blindness, deafness, parah'sis, caries of the bones, 
 ulcers (cancer), spasms, hemorrhages, diseases of the mind and soul, 
 etc., the physicians imagine that the}^ have before them some- 
 thing entirely new and treat it again and again according to the old 
 routine of their therapeutics in a useless and hurtful manner, direct- 
 ing their medicines against phantom diseases; z. e., against causes 
 invented by them for the ailments as the}^ appear, until the patient, 
 after many years' suffering continually aggravated, is at last freed 
 from their hands by death, the end of all earthly maladies, t 
 
 The older physicians were more conscientious in this matter and 
 observed with less prejudice. They saw clearl}^ and became convinced 
 that innumerable ailments and the most severe chronic diseases fol- 
 low the destruction of the itch-eruption from the skin. And since this 
 experience compelled them to assume the existence of an internal 
 disease, in every case of itch they endeavored to extirpate this in- 
 ternal malad}^ by means of a multitude of internal remedies, as good 
 as their therapeutics afforded. It was, indeed, but a useless en- 
 deavor, because the true method of healing, which it could onl3^ be 
 the prerogative of Homoeopathy to discover, was unknown to them. 
 Nevertheless this sincere endeavor was praiseworth}^ since it w^as 
 founded on an appreciation of the great internal disease present to- 
 gether with the eruption of itch, which internal disease it was neces- 
 sary to remove. This prevented their reliance on the mere local 
 destruction of the itch from the skin, as practiced by modern ph}^- 
 sicians, who think that they cannot quickly enough drive it awa}^ — 
 as if it were a mere external disease of the skin — without regarding 
 
 ■^I wrote this six 5^ears ago, but even at this day the physicians of the old 
 school continue to act and teach with the same criminal negligence. In this 
 most important medical affair they have up to this day not become the least bit 
 wiser or more humane. 
 
 tBy accident (for they cannot give any but a feigned reason for their 
 action ) they found out a refuge which temporaril}' often alleviates the suffer- 
 ings of their patients when they can not do anything at home with their pre- 
 scriptions against the unknown disease; that is, they send him to some sulphur 
 bath or other, where the patients often get rid of a small part of their Psoi^a, 
 and thus are also at the first use of the baths for a time relieved of their chronic 
 disease; but afterwards they fall back into the same or a kindred ailment, and 
 the repetition of the bath then avails little or nothing, because the cure of a 
 developed Psora requires a far more adequate treatment than the impetuous use 
 of such baths. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 1 7 
 
 the great injuries attending such a course. The older physicians, on 
 the other hand, have warningly laid these injuries before our eyes 
 in their writings, giving thousands of examples. 
 
 The observations of those honest men are too startling to be 
 rejected contemptuously, or ignored by conscientious men. 
 
 I shall here adduce some of these numerous observations handed 
 down to us, which I might increase by an equal number of my own 
 if the former were not already abundantly sufficient to show with 
 what fury the internal Psora manifests itself when the external local 
 symptom which serves to assuage the internal malady is hastily re- 
 moved. They also show that it must be a matter of conscience for 
 the physician who loves his fellow-man to direct all his endeavors to 
 cure, first of all, the internal malady, whereby the cutaneous erup- 
 tion will at the same time be removed and destroyed and all the sub- 
 sequent innumerable lifelong chronic sufferings springing from the 
 Psora be prevented or, if the}^ are already embittering the life of the 
 patient, be cured. 
 
 The diseases, partly acute but chiefly chronic, springing from 
 such a one-sided destruction of the chief skin-symptom (eruption 
 and itching) which acts vicariously and assuages the internal Psora 
 (which destruction is erroneously called ' ' D^Hving the itch into the 
 body'') are innumerable; as manifold as the peculiarities of bodily 
 constitutions and of the outer world which modifies them. 
 
 A brief survey of the manifold misfortunes resulting thence is 
 given by the experienced and honest I^udwig Christian Juncker 
 in his Dissertatio de Damno ex Scabie Repulsa, Halle, 1750, p. 15-18. 
 He observed that with young people of a sanguine temperament the 
 suppression of itch is followed by phthisis, and with persons in 
 general who are of a sanguine temperament it is followed by piles, 
 hemorrhoidal colic and renal gravel; with persons of sanguino-choleric 
 temperament by swellings of the inguinal glands, stiffening of the 
 joints and malignant ulcers (called in German Todenbricche) ; with 
 fat persons by a suffocating catarrh and mucous consumption; also 
 by inflammatory fever, acute pleurisy and inflammation of the lungs. 
 He further states that in autopsies the lungs have been found indu- 
 rated and full of cysts containing pus; also other indurations, swell- 
 ings of the bones and ulcers have been seen to follow the sup- 
 pression of an eruption. Phlegmatic persons in consequence of such 
 suppressions suffered chiefly from dropsy; the menses were dela3^ed, 
 and when the itch was driven away during their flow, they were 
 changed into a monthly hemoptysis. Persons inclined to melancholy 
 were sometimes made insane b}^ such repression; if they were 
 pregnant the foetus was usually killed. Sometimes the suppression

 of the itch causes steriht}^,^ in nursing women the milk is generally 
 lacking, the menses disappear prematurelj' ; in older women the 
 uterus becomes ulcerated, attended with deep, burning pains, with 
 wasting awa}^ (cancer of the womb). 
 
 His experiences were frequentl}^ confirmed by the observations f 
 of others, as e. g. with reference to

 ^'A pregnant Jewess had the itch on her hands and drove it away in the 
 eighth month of her pregnancy so that it might not be seen during the period 
 of her deliver}'. Three days afterwards she was delivered and the lochial 
 discharge did not appear and she was seized with a high fever; since that time 
 for seven years she had been sterile and had suffered from leucorrhoea. Then 
 she became poor and had to walk a great distance barefooted; hereupon the 
 itch again appeared and she thus lost her leucorrhoea and her other hysteric 
 affections; she became again pregnant and was safel}^ delivered. {Ju7icker, ibid. ) 
 
 t When writing the first edition of the Chronic Diseases, I was not as yet 
 acquainted with Autenrieth's Versiiche fuer die prakt. Heilkunde aus den 
 Klinishen Anstalten von Tubingen, 1808. But I saw on examining the work, 
 that what he says about diseases following the driving away of itch through 
 local applications, is only a confirmation of what I had already found with the 
 other hundred writers. He also had observed that the external driving away of 
 itch was followed by ulcers on the feet, pulmonary consumption, hj-sterical 
 chlorosis, with various menstrual irregularities; white swelling of the knee, 
 dropsy of the joints, epilepsy, amaurosis, with obscured cornea ; glaucoma, with 
 complete amaurosis ; mental derangement, paralysis, apoplexy and curvature of 
 the neck ; these he erroneousl}^ attributed to the ointments alone. But his own 
 slow local driving away of the eruption by means of sulphuret of potash and 
 soft soap, which he in vain calls healing it, is in no way better. Just as if his 
 treatment were anything else than a local driving away of the eruption from the 
 skin! Of any true cure he knows just as little as the other Allopaths, for he 
 writes: "It is, of course, absurd to endeavor to cure itch (scab) by internal 
 remedies." Noi it is not only absurd, but even wretched to undertake to cure 
 an internal itch-disease which cannot be cured by any local application, 
 through any but inte^nial means, which alone can cure the disease thorvughly 
 and with certainty. 
 
 1 A man 30 to 40 years of age had been afflicted with the itch a long time 
 before, and it had been driven away b}^ ointments ; from which time he had be- 
 come more and more asthmatic. His respiration became at last, even when not 
 in motion, very short and extremely labored, emitting at the same time a con- 
 tinuous hissing sound, but attended with only little coughing. He was 
 ordered an injection of one drachm of squills, and to take internally 3 grains of 
 squills. But by mistake he took the drachm of squills internally. He was near

 losing his life with an indescribable nausea and retching. Soon after this the 
 itch appeared again on his hands, his feet and his whole body in great 
 abundance, and by this means the asthma was at once removed. 
 
 '^ The violent asthma was combined with general swelling and fever. 
 
 ^ A man of 32 years had the itch driven away by sulphur ointment, and he 
 suffered for eleven months from the most violent asthma until by drinking 
 birch-juice the eruption was brought back on the twenty-third day. 
 
 ■^ A student was seized with the itch just as he was going to dance, on which 
 ■account he had it driven out by a practitioner with sulphur ointment, But soon 
 after, he was attacked by such a severe asthma that he could only draw breath 
 iDy throwing his head back, and was almost suffocated during the attacks. After 
 'thus wrestling with death for an hour, he would cough up little cartilaginous 
 pieces which would ease him for a very short time. Having returned home to 
 Osterode he suffered continually for two years of this disease, being attacked 
 ■about ten times a day, which could not even be mitigated through the help of 
 his physician, Beireis 
 
 ^ A boy of 13 years having suffered from his childhood with ti7iea capitis 
 had his mother remove it for him, but he became very sick within eight or ten 
 days, suffering with asthma, violent pains in the limbs, back and knee, which 
 were not relieved until an eruption of itch broke out over his whole body a 
 month later, 
 
 ^ Ti7iea capitis in a little girl was driven away by purgatives and other medi- 
 cines, but the child was attacked with oppression of the chest, cough and great 
 lassitude. It was not until she stopped taking the medicines, and the tinea 
 broke out again, that she recovered her cheerfulness and this, indeed, quickl}-. 
 
 7 A boy of 5 years suffered for a long time from itch, and when this was 
 'driven away by a salve it left behind a severe melancholy with a cough. 
 
 s Owing to tinea capitis, which had been driven off by rubbing with almond 
 oil, there arose an excessive lassitude of all the limbs, headache on one side, 
 loss of appetite, asthma, waking up at night with suffocating catarrh, \^dth 
 : severe rattling and whistling on the chest and convulsive twisting of the limbs, 
 as if about to die, and hematuria. When the tinea broke out again, he re- 
 "covered from all these ailments. 
 
 A 3-year-old girl had the itch, for several weeks ; when this was driven out 
 'by an ointment she was seized the next day by a suffocating catarrh with snor- 
 ing, and with numbness and coldness of the whole body, from which she did not 
 :recover until the itch re-appeared. 
 
 '-' A girl of twelve years had the itch with which she had frequently suffered,

 itch again appeared and all the ailments, excepting the swelling, disappeared ; 
 but after twent3'-four days the itch again dried up, which was followed \iy a 
 new inflammation in the chest with pleurisy and vomiting. 
 
 ^^The dyspnoea of a youth, 20 years, caused by the driving away of itch was 
 so great that he could not get any breath, and his pulse was hardly perceptible, 
 in consequence of which he suffocated. 
 
 ^^ A moist herpes on the left upper arm of a youth of 19 years was finally 
 locally removed by many external applications. But soon after, there ensued a 
 periodical asthma which was suddenly increased by a lengthy foot -tour in the 
 heat of summer, even to suffocation, with a puffed up bluish-red face and quick,, 
 weak, uneven pulse. 
 
 ^2 The dyspncea from the driven out itch came on very suddenly, and the 
 patient was suffocated. 
 
 ^^ A 5-}' ear-old girl had had for some time large itch vesicles on the hands,, 
 which dried up of themselves. Shortly after, she became sleepy and tired and 
 was seized with dyspnoea. The following day the asthma continued and her 
 abdomen became distended. 
 
 "A 50 year old farmer, who had been long tortured w4th the itch, while he 
 was driving it out by external applications, was seized with a dyspnoea, a loss 
 of appetite and a swelling of the whole body. 
 
 ^= A girl in Bologna drove away the itch with an ointment and was seized 
 with the most severe asthma without fever. After two blood-lettings her 
 strength decreased so much and. the asthma was so much augmented that she 
 died on the following day. The whole chest was filled with bluish water, also 
 the pericardium. 
 
 16 A girl of 9 years with the tinea capitis had it driven away, when she was 
 seized with a lingering fever, a general swelling and dyspnoea; when the tinea 
 broke out again she recovered. 
 
 " A man of 46 drove out his itch with a sulphur ointment. Thereupon he 
 was seized with inflammation in the chest with bloody expectoration, dyspnoea 
 and great anguish. The following day the heat and the anguish became almost 
 unbearable and the pains in the chest increased on the third day. Then sweat 
 broke out. After fourteen days the itch broke out again and he felt better. 
 But he had a relapse, the itch dried up again and he died on the 13th day after 
 the relapse.

 March and April. 
 
 -^A young man who had been warned by (the good physician and) Prof. 
 Krause against the use of sulphur ointment for the re-appearing itch did not 
 follow his advice, but rubbed himself with it, when he died of constipation. In 
 his body, at the autopsy, were found sacs of pus in his abdominal viscera.

 autopsy showed, hastened his death.

 The author of the book Epidemion lib. 5, No. 4, who gives his name as Hip- 
 pocrates, first mentions the sad result of such a case, where an Athenian was 
 seized by a violently itching eruption, spread over the whole body and especially 
 over the genital organs; he expelled it by the use of the warm baths on the 
 island of Melos, but died of the resulting dropsy. 
 
 ^^A boy of 8 or 9 years, who had been shortly before healed oi tinea showed 
 many swellings of the glands of the neck by which his neck was drawn crooked 
 and stiff. 
 
 ^'A youth of 14 years had the itch in June, 1761. He rubbed with a gray 
 ointment and the itch passed away. Upon this the glands behind both of his 
 ears swelled up; the swelling on the left ear passed away of itself, but the right 
 one in five months became monstrously enlarged and about August began to 
 pain him. All the glands of the neck were swollen. On the outside the large 
 gland was full of hard knots and without sensitiveness, but internally there was 
 an obtuse pain, especially at night; at the same time he suffered from d3^spnoea 
 and obstructed deglutition. All means used to produce suppuration were in 
 vain; it became so large that the patient was suffocated in the year 1762, 
 
 ^^A girl of 13 years was seized with the itch, especially on the limbs, in the 
 face and on the pudenda; this was finally driven away by ointments of zinc 
 and sulphur, whereupon she gradually became weak of sight. Little dark 
 bodies floated before her eyes, and these could also be seen from without float- 
 ing in the aqueous humor of the anterior chamber of the eye. At the same 
 time she could not recognize small bodies except with spectacles. The pupils 
 were dilated. 
 
 ^^A girl had a violent eruption of itch on the legs, with large iilcers in the 
 bend of the knee. Being attacked with smallpox the itch was suppressed. 
 This induced a humid inflammation of the white of the eye and of the eyelids, 
 with itching and suppuration of the same, and the vision of dark bodies floating 
 before her eyes; this lasted for two years. Then for three days she put on the

 left loin. Still he, after awhile, passed urine a few times, but only a little, of 
 dark color and attended with pains. In vain the attempt was made to empty 
 it with a catheter. At last the whole body swelled up, difficult and slow respi- 
 ration ensued, and he died on about the twenty-first day after the suppression 
 of the itch. The bladder contained two pounds of urine just as dark, but the

 off with an ointment, and instead of this there broke out ulcers on his arms and 
 legs, and glandular swellings in the arm-pits. These ulcers were finally cured 
 by external applications, when he was seized with dyspnoea and then with 
 dropsy, and from these he died.

 ^^ A woman of 43 ^^ears, long afflicted with dry itch, rubbed her joints with 
 an ointment of sulphur and mercury, and thus drove it off; this was followed 
 by pains under the right ribs, lassitude in all the limbs, heat and feverish irri- 
 tation. After using sudorific remedies for six days, large vesicles of itch broke- 
 out all over the body. 
 
 *^° Two youths, brothers, drove off the itch by one and the same remedy^ 
 but they lost all appetite, a dr\' cough and a lingering fever set in, they became 
 emaciated and fell into a slumbrous stupor, so that they would have died if the 
 eruption had not luckil}- re-appeared on the skin. 
 
 ^^ With a three-year old child when tinea capitis had disappeared of itself^ 
 there arose a violent fever on the chest, cough and weariness, and it only recov- 
 ered when the eruption re-appeared on the head. 
 
 ^^ A journeyman purse-maker, who had to make some embroidery, drove off 
 his frequent itch with lead-ointment. Scarcely was the itch dr3ang off in con- 
 sequence, when he was seized with chills, heat, dyspncea and a rattling cough,, 
 of which he suffocated on the fourth day, 
 
 ^3 A vigoroi s, healthy man of 30 3^ears was taken with the itch and drove 
 the eruption from the skin, but was then seized vdth a catarrhal fever with an 
 uncontrollable perspiration; he was slowly recovering from it when he was 
 seized without any further cause by another fever. The attacks began with, 
 anxiety and headache, and increased with heat, a quick pulse and morning 
 sweats. There was added an unusual sinking of the strength, and delirious- 
 speech, anxious tossing about, a sobbing respiration with suffocation — a disease 
 which despite all medicines ended with death. 
 
 ^*With a boy the itch passed away of itself; this was followed by fever. 
 The itch now appeared more violent and the fever passed away, but the child 
 grew thin, and when the itch again dried up there followed diarrhoea, convul- 
 sions and soon afterwards death. 
 
 ^5 Itch disappeared from the skin of itself, on which lingering fever, expec- 
 toration of pus and lastly death followed, and at the autopsy the left lungs were 
 found full of pus. 
 
 ^^ A woman of 30 years had for a long time pain in the limbs and a strong- 
 eruption of itch, which she drove off with ointment, when she was attacked hj 
 fever with violent heat, thirst and raging headache, which was accompanied 
 with delirious speech, uncontrollable dyspnoea, tumefaction of the bodv and 
 great distension of the abdomen. She died on the sixth day of the fever. The 
 abdomen contained much air, and especially the stomach was distended with, 
 air, filling half of the abdomen. 
 
 ^' A man whose tinea capitis had passed off from intense cold, was seized 
 after eight days with a malignant fever, with vomiting, accompanied at last 
 with hiccough; he died in consequence on the ninth day.

 In the same article Morgag-ni mentions the case of a man who, having 
 scabs from itch on the arms and on other parts, drove off nearly the whole 
 eruption by a sulphurated shirt, but was seized at once with drawing pains on 
 the whole body combined with fever, so that he could neither rest at night nor 
 move about in the daytime; also the tongue and the fauces were thus attacked. 
 With much trouble the eruption was brought out again on the skin, and thus 
 his health was restored. 
 
 ^^A malignant fever with opisthotonus from driving off the itch. 
 
 ^^ A young merchant had driven off the itch with ointment, when he was 
 suddenly seized with such hoarseness that he could not speak a loud word; 
 then followed dry asthma, loathing of food, severe cough, troublesome especially 
 at night and robbing him of sleep, violent ill-smelling night-sweats, and, despite 
 of all medical treatment, death. 
 
 '°A burgomaster, 60 years of age, was infected with the itch, and suffered 
 unspeakably from it through the nights; he used many medicines in vain, and 
 at last was taught by a beggar a so-called infallible remedy, composed of oleum 
 laurinum, flowers of sulphur and lard. Having rubbed with this several times 
 he was, indeed, freed from the eruption, but soon after he was seized with a 
 violent chill, followed by an excessive heat all over the body, vehement thirst, 
 a gasping asthma, sleeplessness, violent trembling all over the body and great 
 lassitude, so that on the fourth day he expired. 
 
 7' From the same cause a fever combined with insanity, precipitating death. 
 
 ■'^ After driving off itch, most frequently acute fevers with a great sinking of 
 the strength follow. In one such case the fever lasted seven days, when the 
 eruption of itch re-appeared and stopped the fever. 
 
 ''■^ A boy of 15 3-ears for a long time had tinea capitis and had received from 
 Pelargus a strong purgative to cure it; he was seized with pain in the back, 
 cutting pains during micturition, followed b}- tertian fever. 
 
 '* Old people have especially dry itch, and if this is driven off by external 
 applications usually quartan fever ensues, which vanishes as soon as the itch 
 re-appears on the skin.

 driven off, and he enjoyed for two years an apparently good health only he 
 had during this time two attacks of vertigo, which gradually so increased that 
 once after finishing his meal he was seized with such vertigo that he would 
 have fallen to the floor if he had not been supported. He was covered with an 
 icy perspiration, his limbs trembled, all the parts of his body were as dead, and 
 he repeatedly vomited up a sour substance. A similar attack followed six weeks 
 later, then once a month for three months. He indeed retained consciousness, 
 but there always followed heaviness of the head and a drunken stupor. At last 
 these attacks came dail}-, though in a milder form. He could not read nor 
 think nor turn around quickly nor stoop down. This was attended with sad- 
 ness, sorrowful, anxious thoughts and sighs, 
 
 '•^ A woman of 36 j^ears had the itch driven from the skin a few years before 
 with mercurial remedies. Her menses became irregular, and were often inter- 
 rupted for ten or even fifteen weeks; she was at the same time constipated. 
 Four years ago during pregnancy she was seized with vertigo, and she would 
 suddenly fall down while standing or walking. While sitting she would 
 retain her senses during the vertigo and could speak, eat and drink. At her 
 first attack she felt in her left foot, as it were, a crawling sensation and formi. 
 cation, which terminated in a violent jerking up and down of the feet. In time 
 these attacks took away consciousness, and afterwards in traveling in a 
 carriage there came an attack of real epilepsy which returned thrice in the 
 following winter. During these attacks she could not speak; she did not 
 indeed turn her thumbs inward, but yet there was foam at her mouth. The 
 sensation of formication in the left foot announced the attack, and when this 
 sensation reached the pit of the stomach it suddenly brought on the fit. This 
 epilepsy was removed by a woman with five powders, but instead of it her 
 vertigo reappeared, but much more violentl}^ than before. It also commenced 
 with a crawling sensation in the left foot, which rose up to the heart; this 
 was attended with great anxiety and fear, as if she were falling down from a 
 height, and while supposing that she had fallen she lost consciousness and 
 speech; at the same time her limbs moved convulsively. But also outside of 
 these attacks the least touch of her feet caused her the most intense pain as 
 if from a boil. This was attended with severe pains and heat in the head and 
 wdth loss of memor}', 
 
 '" After an itch driven away by ointment there followed with a girl a most 
 profound swoon, and soon after the most terrible convulsions and death. 
 
 "^ A girl of 17, in consequence of tinea capitis which disappeared of itself, 
 was seized with continual heat in the head and attacks of headache. She 
 sometimes suddenly started up as if from fright, and while awake she was 
 seized with convulsive motions of ti '.e limbs, especially of the arms and hands, 
 as also with oppression in the pit of the stomach as if her breast was laced 
 together; with moaning; then her limbs would jerk convulsively and she would 
 start up.

 '^ A full-grown man who had been for some time affected with tremor of 
 the hands had his tinea dry up. He was thereupon seized wnth great lassitude 
 and red patches without heat broke out on his body. The tremor passed over 
 into convulsive shaking, bloody matter w^as discharged from his nose and his 
 ears, he also coughed up blood, and he died on the 23d day amidst convulsions. 
 
 ^ A man who had driven off a frequently occurring eruption of itch with 
 an ointment fell into epileptic convulsions, which disappeared again when the 
 eruption reappeared on the skin. 
 
 ^^ A youth of 1 8 years drove off the itch with a mercurial ointment and two 
 months after he was unexpected!)^ seized with convulsions, which attacked all 
 the limbs of the body, now this, now that; with painful constriction of the

 he was seized with epilepsy, foaming at the mouth, while the limbs were 
 strangely contorted. The epilepsy only yielded when the eruption returned.

 more particularly, the mother confessed that the little boy had some v&sicles of 
 itch on the sole of the foot, which had soon yielded to lead ointment; the child, 
 as she said, had no other sign of the itch. The physician correctly recognized 
 in this the only cause of the epilepsy.

 ^9 The itch in a youth of 20 years was suppressed by a purgative which was 
 allowed to act violenth' for several days, after which he for two years suffered 
 daih- the most violent convulsior^s, until, through the use of birch-juice, the 
 itch was brought back to the skin. 
 
 ^°A 3'oungnian of 17 years, of vigorous constitution and good intelligence, 
 was attacked three years ago, after itch had been driven out, first by hemop- 
 tysis and then by epilepsy, which grew worse through medicines until the fits 
 came on everj^ two hours. Another surgeon, through frequent blood-lettings 
 and many medicines, effected that he remained free from epileps}^ for four 
 weeks, but soon afterwards the epilepsy returned while he was taking his noon- 
 day nap, and the patient had two or three fits in the nights; at the same time 
 he was attacked wdth a very severe cough and suffocating catarrh, especially 
 during the nights, when he expectorated a very fetid fluid. He was confined 
 to his bed. At last, after much medicine, the disease increased so much that he 
 had ten fits at night and eight during the da}'. Nevertheless he never in these 
 fits either clenched his thumbs or had foam at his mouth. His memory is weak- 
 ened. The attacks come at the approach of meal-time, but more frequently after 
 meals. During his nightly attacks he remains in the deepest sleep without 
 awaking, but in the morning he feels as if bruised all over. The onl}- warning 
 of a fit consists in his rubbing his nose and drawing up his left foot, but then he 
 suddenly falls down. 
 
 ^1 A woman, after having the itch driven out, had parah-sis of one leg and 
 remained lame. 
 
 ^'" After driving oft the itch with sulphur ointment, a man of 53 years had 
 hemiplegia. 
 
 ^^ A minister who for a long time had in vain used internal remedies against 
 the itch finally grew tired of it and drove it off with ointment, when his upper 
 extremities were, in a measure, parah-zed and a hard, thick skin formed in the 
 palms of the hands, full of blood}- chaps and insuflerable itching. 
 
 In the same place the author mentions also a woman whose fingers con- 
 tracted from an itch driven out by external means; she suffered of them a long 
 time.

 Who, after meditating on even these few examples which might 
 l>e much increased from the writings of the physicians of that time 
 and from m}^ experience,^' would remain so thoughtless as to ignore 
 the great evil hidden within, the Psora, of which evil the eruption 
 of itch and its other forms, the tinea capitis, milk crust, tetter, etc., 
 are only indications announcing the internal, monstrous disease of 
 the whole organism, only local external symptoms which act 
 vicariously and mitigating^ for the internal disease? Who, after 
 reading even the few cases described, would hesitate to acknowl- 
 ■edge that the Psora, as already stated, is the most destructive of all 
 •chronic miasmas? Who would be so stolid as to declare, with the 
 later allopathic ph3'sicians, that the itch-eruption, tinea and tetters 
 
 ^5 A student, 20 years old, had the humid itch, which so covered his hands 
 that he became incapable of attending to his work. It was driven off by 
 sulphur ointment. But shortl}^ after it appeared how much his health had suf- 
 fered from it. He became insane, sang or laughed where it was unbecoming, 
 :and ran until he sank to the ground from exhaustion. From day to day he 
 became more sick in soul and in body, until at last hemiplegy came on and he 
 'died. The intestines were found grown together into a firm mass, studded with 
 little ulcers fullof protruberances, some of the size of walnuts, which were filled 
 with a substance resembling gypsum. 
 
 ^•^ The same story. 
 
 ^■^ A man of 50 years with whom, after driving away the itch by ointments, 
 general dropsy had set in; when the itch re-appeared and drove away the swell- 
 ing he drove it away again, when he fell into raving madness, while head and 
 neck swelled up to suffocation; at last blindness and complete suppression of 
 oirine were added. Artificial irritants applied to the skin and a strong emetic 
 brought back the itch again; when the eruption extended over the whole body 
 -all the former accidents disappeared. 
 
 ■^ An opponent, of the old school, has reproached me that I have not adduced 
 -my own experience to prove that the chronic maladies, when they are not of 
 ■"Sj^philitic or sycotic origin, spring from the miasma of itch, as such proofs from 
 ^experience would have been convincing. Oho! If the examples here adduced 
 by me from both the older and from modern non-Homoeopathic writings have 
 not yet enough convincing proof, I should like to know what other examples 
 '.(even my own not excepted) could be conceived of as more striking proofs? 
 How often (and I might say almost always) have opponents of the old school 
 refused all credence to the observations of honorable Homoeopathic physicians, 
 because they were not made before their own eyes and because the names of 
 Ihe patients were only indicated with a letter; as if private patients would 
 31II0W their names to be used! Why should I endure the like? And do I not 
 prove my point in a manner most indubitable and most free from partisanship 
 through the experience of so many other honest practitioners ? 
 
32 HAHXKMAXX'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 are onh' situated superficialh' upon the skin and may, therefore, 
 without fear, be driven out through external means since the internal 
 of the bod}' has no part in it and retains its health ? 
 
 Sureh', among all the crimes which the modern ph^'sicians of the 
 old school are guilt}' of, this is the most hurtful, shameful and un- 
 pardonable I 
 
 The man who, from the examples given and from innumerable 
 others of a like nature, is not willing to see the exact opposite of that 
 assertion blinds himself on purpose and works intentionalh' for the 
 destruction of mankind. 
 
 Or are the}' so little instructed as to the nature of all the mias- 
 matic maladies connected with diseases of the skin that they do not 
 know that they all take a similar course in their origin ? And that 
 all such miasmas become first internal maladies of the whole system 
 before their external assuaging symptom appears on the skin ? 
 
 We shall more closely elucidate this process, and in consequence 
 we shall see that all miasmatic maladies which show peculiar local 
 ailments on the skin are always present as internal maladies in the 
 system before they show their local symptom externally upon the 
 skin; but that only in acute diseases, after taking their course 
 through a certain number of days, the local symptom, together with 
 the internal disease, is wont to disappear, which then leaves the 
 body free from both. In chronic miasmas, however, the outer loca 
 symptom may either be driven from the skin or may disappear of 
 itself, while the internal disease, if uncured, neither wholly nor in 
 part ever leaves the system; on the contrar}', it continualh' increases 
 with the years, unless healed by art. 
 
 I must here dwell the more circumstantially on this process of 
 nature, because the common physicians, especially of modern days, 
 are so deficient in A'ision; or, more correctly stated, so blind that 
 although they could, as it were, handle and feel this process in the 
 origin and development of acute miasmatic eruptional diseases, the}' 
 nevertheless neither surmised nor obsen'ed the like process in 
 chronic diseases, and therefore declared their local symptoms as 
 secondary groT^ths and impurities existing merely externally on the 
 skin, without any internal fundamental disease, and this as well with 
 the chancre and the fig- wart as with the eruption of itch, and there- 
 fore — since they overlooked the chief disease or perhaps even boldly 
 denied it — by a mere external treatment and destruction of these 
 local ailments they have brought unspeakable misfortunes on suffer- 
 ing humanity. 
 
 With respect to the origin of these three chronic maladies, as in 
 the acute, miasmatic eruptional diseases, three different important 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 33 
 
 moments are to be more attentively considered than has hitherto 
 been done: First, the time of infection; secondly, the period of time 
 during which the whole organism is being penetrated by the disease 
 infused, until it has developed within; and thirdly, the breaking out 
 of the external ailment, whereby nature externally demonstrates the 
 completion of the internal development of the miasmatic malady 
 throughout the whole organism. 
 
 The infection with miasmas, as well of the acute as of the above- 
 mentioned chronic diseases, takes place, without doubt, in 07ie single 
 77ioment, and that moment, the one most favorable for infection. 
 
 When the smallpox or the cowpox catches, this happens in the mo- 
 ment when in vaccination the morbid fluid in the bloody scratch of the 
 skin comes in contact with the exposed nerve, which then, irrevocably,, 
 dynamically communicates the disease to the vital force (to the whole 
 nervous system) in the same moment. After this moment of infec- 
 tion no ablution, cauterizing or burning, not even the cutting off of 
 the part which has caught and received the infection, can again, 
 destroy or undo the development of the disease within. Smallpox,, 
 cowpox, measles, etc., nevertheless will complete their course within,, 
 and the fever peculiar to each will break out with its smallpox, cow- 
 pox, measles,* etc., after a few days, when the internal disease has 
 developed and completed itself. 
 
 The same is the case, not to mention several other acute miasmas, 
 also when the skin of man is contaminated with the blood of cattle 
 
 * We may justly ask: Is there in any probability any miasma in the world, 
 which, when it has infected from without, does not first make the whole organ- 
 ism sick before the signs of it externally manifest themselves ? We can only 
 answer this question with, 7io, there is none ! 
 
 Does it not take three, four or five days after vaccination is effected, before 
 the vaccinated spot becomes inflamed ? Does not the sort of fever developed — 
 the sign of the completion of the disease — appear even later, when the protect- 
 ing pock has been fully formed; i. e., on the seventh or eighth day? 
 
 Does it not take ten to twelve days after infection with smallpox, before the 
 inflammatory fever and the outbreak of the smallpox on the skin take place ? 
 
 What has nature been doing with the infection received in these ten or 
 twelve days ? Was it not necessary to first embody the disease in the whole 
 organism before nature was enabled to kindle the fever, and to bring out the 
 eruption on the skin ? 
 
 Measles also require ten or twelve days after infection or inociilation before 
 this eruption with its fever appears. After infection with scarlet fever seven 
 days usually pass before the scarlet fever, with the redness of the skin, breaks 
 out. 
 
 What then did nature do with the received miasma during the inten-ening 
 days ? What else but to incorporate the whole disease of measles or scarlet 
 fever in the entire living organism before she had completed the work, so as to 
 be enabled to produce the measles and the scarlet fever with their eruption.

 affected with anthrax. If, as is frequently the case, the anthrax has 
 infected and caught on, all ablutions of the skin are in vain; the 
 black or gangrenous blister, nearly always fatal, nevertheless, always 
 comes out after four or five days (usuallj^ in the affected spot); i. e., 
 as soon as the whole living organism has transformed itself to this 
 terrible disease. 
 
 (It is just so with the infection of half- acute miasmas without 
 eruption. Among many persons bitten by mad dogs — thanks to the 
 benign ruler of the world — only few are infected, rarely the twelfth; 
 often, as I mj^self have observed, onl)^ one out of twenty or thirty 
 persons bitten. The others, even if ever so badly mangled by the 
 mad dog, usually all recover, even if they are not treated by a phy- 
 sician or surgeon.*) But with whomsoever the poison acts, it has 
 taken effect in the moment when the person was bitten, and the poison 
 has then communicated itself to the nearest nerves and, therefore, 
 without contradiction, to the whole system of the nerves, and as soon 
 as the malady has been developed in the whole organism (for this 
 development and completion of the disease nature requires at least 
 several days, often many weeks), the madness breaks out as an acute, 
 quickl}^ fatal disease. Now if the venomous spittle of the mad dog 
 has really taken effect, the infection usually has taken place irrevocably 
 in the moment of contagion, for experience shows that even the im- 
 mediate excisionf and amputation of the infected part does not protect 
 from the progression of the disease within, nor from the breaking out 
 of the h^^drophobia — therefore, also, the many hundreds of other 
 much lauded external means for cleansing, cauterizing and suppur- 
 ating the wound of the bite can protect just as little from the break- 
 ing out of the hydrophobia. 
 
 From the progress of all these miasmatic diseases we may plainly 
 see that, after the contagion from without, the malady connected with 
 it in the interiors of the whole man must first be developed; i. <?., the

 pox, measles or scarlet fever, before these various eruptions can 
 appear on the skin.

 kept up for two weeks; nevertheless hydrophobia broke out on the 27th of

HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 35 
 
 For all these aattc miasmatic diseases the human constitution pos- 
 sesses that process which, as a rule, is so beneficent : to wipe them 
 out (/. c. , the specific fever together with the specific eruption) in 
 the course of from two to three weeks, and of itself to extinguish 
 them again, through a kind of decision (crisis), from the organism, 
 so that man then is wont to be entirely healed of them and, indeed, 
 in a short time, unless he be killed by them.^ 
 
 In the chronic miasmatic diseases nature observes t/ie same course 
 with respect to the mode of contagion and the antecedent formation 
 of the internal disease, before the external declarative symptoms of its 
 internal completion manifests itself on the surface of the body; but 
 then that great remarkable difference from the acute diseases shows 
 itself, that in the chronic miasmata the entire internal disease, as we 
 have mentioned before, remains in the organism during the whole 
 life, 3^ea, it increases with every year, if it is not exterminated and 
 thoroughly cured by art. 
 
 Of these chronic miasmata I shall for this purpose only adduce 
 those two, which we know somewhat more exactly; namely, the 
 ^venereal chancre and the itch. 
 
 In impure coition there arises, most probably at the very moment 
 in the spot which is touched and rubbed, the specific contagion. 
 
 If this contagion has taken effect, then the whole living body is 
 in consequence seized with it. Immediately after the moment of 
 contagion the formation of the venereal disease in the whole of the 
 interior begins. 
 
 In that part of the sexual organs where the infection has taken 
 place, nothing unnatural is noticed in the first days, nothing dis- 
 eased, inflamed or corroded; so also all washijig and cleansing of the 
 parts inwiediately after the impure coitio7i is in vai7i. The spot re- 
 mains healthy according to appearance, onl}^ the internal organism is 
 
 ^ Or have these various, acute, half-spiritual miasmas the peculiar charac- 
 teristic that — after they have penetrated the vital force in the first moment of 
 the contagion (and each one in its own way has produced disease) and then, 
 Hke parasites, have quickly grown up within it and have usually developed 
 themseh-es by their peculiar fever, after producing their fruit (the mature 
 cutaneous eruption which is again capable of producing its miasma) — they again 
 die out and leave the living organism again free to recover ? 
 
 On the other hand, are not the chronic miasmas disease-parasites which 
 continue to live as long as the man seized by them is alive, and which have 
 their fruit in the eruption originall}- produced by them (the itch-pustule, the 
 chancre and the figwart, which in turn are capable of infecting others) and 
 which do not die off of themselves like the acute miasmas, but can only be ex- 
 terminated and annihilated by a cotinter-infection, by means of the potency of a 
 medicinal disease quite similar to it and stronger than it (the anti-]-)soric\ so 
 that the patient is delivered from them and recovers his health ? 
 
36 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 called into activity by the infection (which occurs usually in a 
 moment) , so as to incorporate the venereal miasma and to become 
 thoroughly diseased with the venereal malady. 
 
 Only when this penetration of all the organs by the disease 
 caught has been effected, only when the whole being has been 
 changed into a man entirely venereal, i. e., when the development of 
 the venereal disease has been completed, only then diseased nature 
 endeavors to mitigate the internal evil and to soothe it, by producing 
 a local symptom which first shows itself as a vesicle (usually in the 
 spot originally infected), and later breaks out into a painful ulcer 
 called the chancre; this does not appear before five, seven or four- 
 teen days, sometimes, though rarely, not before three, four or five 
 weeks after the infection. This is therefore manifestly a chancre 
 ulcer which acts vicariously for the internal malady, and which has 
 been produced from within by the organism after it has become 
 venereal through and through, and is able through its touch to com- 
 municate also to other men the same miasma; i. e., the venereal 
 disease. 
 
 Now, if the entire disease thus arising is again extinguished 
 through the internally given specific remedy, then the chancre also 
 is healed and the man recovers. 
 
 But if the chancre is destroyed through local applications ^ before 
 the internal disease is healed, — and this is still a daily practice with 
 physicians of the old school, — the miasmatic chronic venereal disease 
 remains in the organism as syphilis, and it is aggravated, if not then 
 cured internallj^, from j^ear to year until the end of man's life, even 
 the most robust constitution being unable to annihilate it within 
 itself. 
 
 Only through the cure of the venereal disease, which pervades 
 the w^hole internal of the body (as I have taught and practiced for 
 many years), the chancre, its local symptom, will also simultane- 
 
 "The venereal disease not only breaks out through the removal of the 
 chancre by the cautery, — in which case some wretched casuists have considered 
 SA'philis as resulting from the driving back of the poison out of the chancre into 
 the interior of the body, which up to this time is supposed by them to have 
 been healthy, — no, even after the quick removal of the chancre without any ex- 
 ternal stimulants, the venereal disease breaks out, which gives additional con- 
 firmation, if this were needed, of the indubitable pre-existence of syphilis in the 
 system. ''Petit cut off a part of the labia minora, in which for some days a 
 venereal chancre had appeared; the wound healed, indeed, but the venereal 
 disease broke out notwithstanding." M. s. Fabre, Lettres, supplement a son 
 traite des maladies veneriemies, Paris, 1786. Of course! because the venereal dis- 
 ease was present in the whole interior of the body even before the outbreak of 
 the chancre. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISK ASKS. 37 
 
 oush" be cured in the most effective manner; and this is best effected 
 T^-ithout the use of an}' external appHcation for its removal — while the 
 mereh- local destruction of the chancre, without any previous general 
 cure and deliverance of man from the internal disease, is followed by 
 the most certain outbreak of syphilis with its sufferings. 
 
 Psora (itch disease), like syphilis, is a miasmatic chronic disease, 
 and its original development is similar. 
 
 The itch disease is, however, also the most contagious of all 
 chronic miasmata, far more infectious than the other two chronic 
 miasmata, the venereal chancre disease and the figwart disease. To 
 effect the infection with the latter there is required a certain amount 
 of friction in the most tender parts of the body, which are the most 
 rich in nerv^es and covered with the thinnest cuticle, as in the genital 
 organs, unless the miasma should touch a wounded spot. But the 
 miasma of the itch 7ieeds only to touch the general skin, especially with 
 tender children. The disposition of being affected with the miasma 
 of itch is found with almost everj^one and under almost all circum- 
 stances, which is not the case with the other two miasmata. 
 
 No other chronic miasma infects more generally, more surely, 
 more easily and more absolutely than the miasma of itch; as already 
 stated, it is the most contagious of all. It is communicated so easily, 
 that even the physician, hurrying from one patient to another, in feel- 
 ing the pulse has unconsciously^ inoculated other patients with it; 
 wash which is washed with wash infected with the itch; f new gloves 
 which had been tried on by an itch patient, a strange lodging place, 
 a strange towel used for drying oneself have communicated this tinder 
 of contagion; yea, often a babe, when being born, is infected while 
 passing through the organs of the mother, who maybe infected (as is 
 not infrequently the case) with this disease; or the babe receives this 
 unlucky infection through the hand of the midwife, which has been 
 infected by another parturient woman (or previously); or, again, a 
 suckling may be infected by its nurse, or, while on her arm, by her 
 caresses or the caresses of a strange person with unclean hands; 
 not to mention the thousands of other possible ways in which things 
 polluted with this invisible miasma may touch a man in the course 
 of his life, and which often can in no way be anticipated or guarded 
 against, so that men who have never been infected by the psora are 
 the exception. We need not to hunt for the causes of infection in 
 crowded hospitals, factories, prisons, or in orphan houses, or in the 
 filthy huts of paupers; even in active life, in retirement, and in the

 rich classes, the itch creeps in. The hermit on Montserrat escapes it 
 as rarely in his rocky cell, as the little prince in his swaddling clothes 
 of cambric. 
 
 As soon as the miasma of itch, e. g., touches the hand, in the 
 moment when it has taken effect, it no more remains local. Hence- 
 forth all w^ashing and cleansing of the spot avail nothing. Nothing 
 is seen on the skin during the first days; it remains unchanged, and, 
 according to appearance, healthy. There is no eruption or itch- 
 ing to be noticed on the body during these days, not even on the 
 spot infected. The ner\-e w^hich was first affected by the miasma 
 has already communicated it in an invisible dynamic manner to the 
 nerves of the rest of the body, and the living organism has at once, 
 all unperceived, been so penetrated by this specific excitation, that it 
 has been compelled to appropriate this miasma gradually to itself 
 until the change of the whole being to a man thoroughly psoric, and 
 thus the internal development of the psora, has reached completion. 
 
 Only when the whole organism feels itself transformed by this 
 peculiar chronic-miasmatic disease, the diseased vital force endeavors 
 to alleviate and to soothe the internal malady through the establish- 
 ment of a suitable local symptom on the skin, the itch- vesicles. So 
 long as this eruption continues in its normal form, the internal /^(?r^, 
 with its secondary ailments, cannot break forth, but must remain 
 covered, slumbering, latent and bound. 
 
 Usuall^^ it takes six, seven or ten, perhaps even fourteen days 
 from the moment of infection before the transformation of the entire 
 internal organism into psora has been effected. Then only, there 
 follows after a slight or more severe chill in the evening and a gen- 
 eral heat, followed b3^ perspiration in the following night, (a little 
 fever which by many persons is ascribed to a cold and therefore dis- 
 regarded), the outbreak of the vesicles of itch, at first fine as if from 
 miliary fever, but afterwards enlarging on the skin'-i' — first in the 
 region of the spot first infected, and, indeed, accompanied with a 
 voluptuously tickling itching which may be called unbearably agree- 
 able (^Grim7nen), which compels the patient so irresistibly to rub and 
 to scratch the vesicles of itch, that, if a person restrains himself forci- 
 bly from rubbing or scratching, a shudder passes over the skin of 
 the whole body. This 7'ubbing and scratching indeed satisfies some- 
 what for a few moments, but there then follows hjimediately a long- 
 
 * Far from being an independent, merely local, cutaneous disease, the vesi- 
 cles or pustules of itch are the reliable proof that the completion of the internal 
 psora has already been effected, and the eruption is merely an integrating factor 
 of the same; for this peculiar eruption and this peculiar itching make a part of 
 the essence of the whole disease in its natural, least dangerous state. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 39 
 
 cojitinued burniiig of the part affected. I^ate in the evening and be- 
 fore midnight this itching is most frequent and most unbearable. 
 
 The vesicles of itch contain in the first hours of their formation a 
 l3"mph clear as water, but this quickly changes into pus, which fills 
 the tip of the vesicle. 
 
 The itching not only compels the patient to rub, but on account 
 of its violence, as before mentioned, to rub and scratch open the 
 vesicles; and the humor pressed out furnishes abundant material for 
 infecting the surroundings of the patient and also other persons not 
 yet infected. The extremities defiled even to an imperceptible 
 degree with this lymph, so also the wash, the clothes and the uten- 
 sils of all kinds, when touched, propagate the disease. 
 
 Only this skin symptom of the psora which has permeated the 
 whole organism (and which as more manifestly falling under the 
 cognizance of the senses has the name oiitcJi), only this eruption, as 
 well as the sores which later arise from it and are attended on their 
 borders with the itching peculiar to psora, as also the herpes which 
 has this peculiar itching and which becomes humid when rubbed (the 
 tetter) , as also the tijiea capitis — these alone can propagate this disease 
 to other persons, because they alone contain the communicable 
 miasma of \h.^ psora. But the remaining secondary symptoms of the 
 psora, which in time manifest themselves after the disappearance or 
 the artificial expulsion of the eruption, i. <?. , the general psoric ail- 
 ments, cannot at all communicate this disease to others. They are, 
 so far as we know, just as little able to transfer \}ci.^ psora to others, as 
 the secondary symptoms of the venereal disease are able to infect 
 other men (as first observed and taught by J. Hunter) with syphilis. 
 
 When the itch-eruption has only lately broken out and is not yet 
 widely spread on the skin, nothing of the general internal malady of 
 the psora is as yet to be noticed in the state of the patient. The 
 eruptional symptom acts as a substitute for the internal malady and 
 keeps the psora with its secondary ailments as it were latent and 
 confined.^ 
 
 In this state, the disease is most easily cured through specific 
 remedies internally administered. 
 
 But if the disease is allowed to advance in its peculiar course 
 
 * As also the chancre, when not expelled, acts vicariously and soothingl}' for 
 the syphilis within, and does not permit the venereal disease to break out, so 
 long as it remains undisturbed in its place. I examined a woman who was free 
 from all the secondary symptoms of the venereal disease; with her a chancre 
 had remained in its place untreated for two years, and had gradually acquired 
 the size of almost an inch in diameter. The best preparation of JAvr//;^', 
 internally administered, soon and entirely healed, not only the internal malady, 
 but also the chancre. 
 
40 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 without the use of an internal curative remed}^ or an external appli- 
 cation to drive away the eruption, the whole disease within rapidly 
 increases, and this increase of the internal malad}^ makes necessary a 
 corresponding increase of the skin-symptom. The itch-eruption, 
 therefore, in order to be able to soothe and to keep latent the 
 increased internal malad}^, has to spread and must finally cover the 
 whole surface of the body. 
 
 Yet even at this acme of the disease the patient still appears 
 healthy in everj^ other respect; all the symptoms of the internal 
 Psora, now so much increased, still remain covered and assuaged 
 through the skin-symptom augmented in the same proportion. But 
 so great a torture, as is caused by so unbearable an itching spread 
 over the whole body, even the most robust man cannot continue to 
 bear. He endeavors to free himself from these torments at any 
 price, and, as there is no thorough help for him with the ph3^sicians 
 of the old school, he endeavors to secure deliverance at least from 
 this eruption, which itches so unbearably, even if it should cost his 
 life; and the means are soon furnished him, either by other ignorant 
 persons, or by Allopathic physicians and surgeons. He seeks deliver- 
 ance from his external tortures, without suspecting the greater mis- 
 fortune which unavoidably follows, and is bound to follow, on the ex- 
 pulsion of the external skin-symptom (which hitherto has acted 
 vicariously for the internal enlarged psora-disease), as has been 
 sufficiently proved by the observations mentioned before. But when 
 he thus drives away such an eruption of itch by external applica- 
 tions, he exposes himself to a similar misfortune, and acts just as 
 unreasonably, as a person who in order to be quickly delivered from 
 poverty, and thus as he supposes to make himself happy, steals a 
 great sum of money, and is, therefore, sent to the dungeon and the 
 gallows. 
 
 The longer the itch-disease has already lasted, whether the erup- 
 tion, as is usually the case, has spread over the greater part of the 
 skin, or whether, owing to a peculiar lack of activity in the skin, (as 
 in some cases) the eruption has been confined to a few vesicles of 
 itch* — in both cases, supposing onl}^ that the Psora together with its 
 skin-sympton has grown old, the expulsion of the eruption of itch, 
 whether greater or smaller or even as small as you please, is attended 
 with the most destructive consequences on account of the internal 
 itch-disease {psora) with its unspeakable sufferings, which, through 
 its long continuance, has increased to a high degree and then un- 
 avoidably breaks forth. 
 
 But the ignorance of the uninstructed layman may be pardoned if

 he drives out the itch-eruption and the troublesome itching by a 
 cold shower-bath, b}^ rolling in snow, b}^ cupping, or by rubbing the 
 whole skin, or onl}^ the skin around the joints, with sulphur mixed 
 with lard; for he does not know to what dangerous accidents and 
 outbreaks of the Psora-disease, that lurks within, he thereby opens 
 the door and ingress. But who will pardon the men whose office 
 and duty it is to know the extent of the inevitably following, illimit- 
 able misfortune, resulting from the external expulsion of the itch- 
 eruption, owing to the Psora which is then aroused from the whole 
 organism, and who ought to have guarded against it in every way 
 b}^ a thorough internal cure of the whole of this disease,* when we 
 
 ■^For even when the itch-disease has reached this high degree, the eruption, 
 together with the internal malady, in one word, the whole psora^ may still be 
 healed by the internal, specific Homoeopathic remedies, with greater difficulty, 
 indeed, than in the beginning, immediately after its origin, but still far more 
 easily and certahily than after a complete expulsion of the eruption by mere 
 external applications, when we must cure the internal psora as it brings forth 
 its secondary symptoms and develops into nameless chronic diseases. The itch- 
 disease, though it may have advanced so far, may nevertheless in its efitire state 
 be most easily, certainly and thoroughly cured, together with its external 
 eruption, through the suitable internal remedies, without the least local applica- 
 tion, just as the venereal chancre disease may most surely and easily be thor- 
 oughly cured often by the least, single dose of the best preparation of mercury 
 internally administered — when the chancre, without calling in the aid of the 
 least external remedy, quickly becomes a mild ulcer, and in a few days heals of 
 itself, so that no trace of secondary symptoms ( venereal disease ) then ever ap- 
 pears or can appear, since the internal symptom has been cured together with 
 the local symptom, as I have taught for many years orally and in my writings, 
 and have proved by my cures of this kind. 
 
 How can we excuse the whole host of physicians, who, hitherto, after treat- 
 ing this generally spread venereal disease for more than three hundred years, 
 nevertheless remain so ignorant in recognizing its nature, that in looking at a 
 chancre they even to this day acknowledge nothing diseased in the infected 
 patient, but this same chancre, and do not see the syphilis, which was already 
 present within and had been developed in the whole organism, even before the 
 breaking out of the chancre; and so they blindly suppose, that the chancre is 
 the only venereal evil which is to be extirpated, and that this needs but to be 
 destroyed by external applications, in order to be able to declare the man cured; 
 and this without being instructed, by the many thousand cases in their experi- 
 ence, that by the local extermination of the chancre they have never done any- 
 thing but injury, as they have only deprived the syphilis pre-existing within of 
 its diverting local symptom, and have thereby compelled the internal malady 
 to break out only the more certainly and dreadfully (and in a manner more 
 difficult of cure), as venereal disease. How can such a universal, pernicious 
 obliquity of vision be excused ? 
 
 Or why did these physicians never reflect on the origin of the figwarts? 
 Why did they always overlook the internal universal malady, which is the 
 cause of these excrescences? It is only when this is recognized, that it can

 see them treat the itch patients all in the same erroneous manner; 
 3'ea, with even more violent internal and external remedies, with 
 sharp purgatives, with the Jasser ointment, with lotions of acetate of 
 lead, with the sublimate of mercurj- or sulphate of zinc, but especi- 
 ally with an ointment prepared of fat with flowers of sulphur or vrith 
 a preparation of mercur^^; mth which the3^ lightly and carelessly 
 destro3' the eruption, declaring ' ' this is merely an impurity located 
 in the skin, and must be driven out; then ever3'thing will be well 
 and the man will be healthy and free from everA^ ailment." Who 
 can pardon them if they are not willing to learn from the man}^ 
 warning examples recorded by the older, more conscientious observ- 
 ers, nor b}' the manj^ thousands of other examples, which frequently, 
 
 be thoroughl}- cured b}- its Honioeopathic remedies, which, then cause the fig- 
 warts to be healed, without the application of any external means of destruction. 
 
 But even if a shadow of an excuse might be ofifered for this sad negligence 
 and ignorance, and if anyone would claim, that these physicians have only had 
 three and one-half centuries, in which to discern clearly the true nattire of 
 syphilis, and that they might have learned this truth after a still more extended 
 practice (still I have endeavored, though in vain, to con\dnce them of their 
 error a number of j-ears ago and since then from time to time), nevertheless, 
 that general negligence of pre^dous ph^-sicians and, I may well say, their obsti- 
 nate blindness, are quite without excuse, in that they did not recognize the 
 internal pre-existing malady, the psora, which lies at the bottom of the itch- 
 disease, which has infected men for several thousands of 3'ears, and that they 
 ignored in their proud levity all the facts which point to it, so that the}^ might 
 continue the delusion and leave the world in its destructive infatuation that: 
 the unheai-ably itching pustules are only a mere superficial ailment of the skin, 
 and by their local destruction man is delivered from the zuhole disease, and has 
 fully recovered. 
 
 Xot perchance mere medical scribblers, no, the greatest and most celebrated 
 physicians of modern and most modern days have made themselves guilty of 
 this grievous error ( or shall I say of this intentional crime), from vox Hei,moxT 
 even to the latest advocates of the Allopathic medical practice. 
 
 B}^ the use of the above mentioned remedies, they indeed usually reached 
 their aim; i. e., the driving away of the eruption and of the itching from the 
 skin, and they supposed in the intoxication of their spirit (or at least they pre- 
 tended), they had destroyed the disease itself and, indeed, totally, and they sent 
 away the patients, thus abused, assuring them that they were again healthy. 
 
 All the sufferings, which follow the one-sided destruction of the cuta- 
 neous eruption, which belongs to the natural form of the psora, they passed off 
 as a newly arisen disease, o^^dng to quite another origin. In their narrowness 
 of mind, thej* never regarded the innumerable, plain testimonies of honest 
 observers of earlier days, which record the sad consequences of the local expul- 
 sion of the itch-eruption, which often followed so closely, that a man would 
 have to deny his reason, or else acknowledge them as the immediate result of 
 the indwelling severe malady ( the psora ) , which had been deprived of the local 
 symptom (the cutaneous eruption), destined by nature to alle\date the internal 
 malady, whence the uncured internal disease has been compelled to a manifest 
 outbreak of its secondary S3-mptoms. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC EISKASES. 43 
 
 3'ea, almost daih', come before their e3^es ? Yet they cannot see nor 
 be convinced as to the certain, quickly fatal or lifelong insidious 
 misfortune the}- bring upon the itch-patient through the destruc- 
 tion of his eruption, as they thus merely unfetter the internal 
 malady (psora), which is laden with innumerable ailments. This 
 disease is neither destroyed nor cured; and so this thousand-headed 
 monster, instead of being conquered, is inexorably let loose against 
 the deceived patient to his destruction, by tearing down the barriers 
 that shut it in. 
 
 It may easily be imagined, as experience also teaches, that the 
 more months a neglected itch-eruption has flourished on the skin, 
 the more surely has internal psora, which underlies it, been able to 
 reach, in even a moderate space of time, a great — and finally its 
 greatest — degree, which dreadful increase it also then proves through 
 the more dangerous consequences, which the expulsion of so inveter- 
 ate an eruption unavoidably draws after it in every case. 
 
 On the other hand, it is just as certain that the eruption of a few 
 vesicles of itch which has broken out only a few days before, in 
 consequence of a recent infection, may be expelled with less im- 
 mediate danger; as the internal psora that has sprung up in the 
 whole organism has not yet had time to grow up to a high de- 
 gree, and we must confess that the expulsion of a few vesicles of itch, 
 that have just arisen, often shows no ivzmediate , manifestly strong, 
 evil consequences. Wherefore with delicate and aristocratic persons, 
 or their children, it usually remains unknown, that a single vesicle or 
 a few vesicles itching violently, which showed only a few days and 
 were at once treated b^^ the careful physician with lead ointment or 
 a lotion of lead, and which disappeared the following day, had itch 
 for their foundation. 
 
 However small the internal psora may be at the time of the quick 
 suppression of an itch-eruption, which has only developed a few 
 vesicles and which is then followed by only moderate ailments and 
 complaints (which are then usually, from ignorance, ascribed by the 
 domestic physician to other causes of little import): the internal 
 malady oi psora, although as yet of slight degree, remains in its 
 character and in its chronic nature the same general psoric disease 
 of the whole organism; /. e., ivithout the aid of art it is ineradicable, 
 and cannot be extirpated by the strength of eveii the best and most 
 robicst bodily constitution, and it will increase even to the end of the 
 patient's life. It is usually the case, indeed, that this disease, de- 
 prived as early as possible of the first traces of its cutaneous symptom 
 by local applications, will grow but slowly in the beginning and will 
 make but slow progress in the organism — much slower progress

 than where the eruption has been allowed to remain for a long time 
 on the skin; for in the latter case the progress of the internal psora 
 is of immense rapidit}"; but the disease, nevertheless, increases un- 
 ceasingl)^, and even in the best cases and under the most favorable 
 external circumstances, quietl}^ and often for years unperceived hy 
 the e5^es; so that an3^one, who does not know the signs of its latent 
 presence, would suppose and declare such persons to be healthy and 
 free from 2.r\y internal malady. Often for 3^ears it does not manifest 
 itself in prominent S3^mptoms, which might be called manifest 
 diseases.

 (chronic) disease, and has developed to such a fearful height that 
 the dangerous conditions make the cure dif&cult and in some cases 
 impossible.

 to recognize the signs of the Psora as well when latent and as yet slumbering

 comparison of the state of health of all such persons with myself, who, as is 
 seldom the case, have never been afflicted with the psora, and have, therefore, 
 from my birth even until now in my eightieth year, been entirely free from the 
 (smaller and greater) ailments enumerated here and further below, although I 
 have been, on the whole, very apt to catch acute epidemic diseases, and have 
 been exposed to many mental exertions and thousand fold vexations of spirit.

 patients, in order to explain, or, at least, to excuse its blind inroads with violent 
 medicines, blood-lettiug, anodynes, etc. These so-called qualitates occultcE 
 Fernelii are, however, wholly suppositious and imaginar}-, as (according to the 
 statement of this same physician ) they are supposed not to be recognizable by 
 any manifestations and symptoms. But whatever does not make known its 
 hidden, imaginary' existence by any sign does not exist for us men, who are 
 limited by our Creator in our cognizance of things to observations — it is conse- 
 quently a phantom of a roving fancy. It is quite different with the various 
 forces slumbering {latent) in nature; despite their ordinary- occultness, they, 
 nevertheless, show themselves when the requisite circumstances and conditions 
 appear; e. g., latent heat, even in metals that feel cold, is manifested when they 
 are rubbed, just as the Psora manifests itself; e. ^., as a drawing pain in the 
 sheaths of the muscles, when the person infected with Psora has been exposed 
 to a draught, etc.

 has at present onh^ one of them, but in the course of time he will 
 also have others; he maj^ be free from some, according to the 
 peculiar disposition of his body or according to the external circum- 
 stances of different persons.

 many other, sometimes long continuing ailments arising therefrom. 
 
 "'^The epidemic catarrhal fevers and catarrhs which seize almost everyone, 
 
 even the heaUhiest persons (Grippe, Inflnenza), do not belong to this category. 
 
 t Persons not afflicted Mvith. psora, though draughts and damp cold air may 
 
 not be agreeable to them, do not suffer any colds or evil after-effects therefrom. 
 
46 HAHXLjM ANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES . 
 
 Predisposition to strains, even from carr^'ing or lifting a slight 
 weight, often caused even by stretching upward and reaching out the 
 arms for objects which are hung high (so also a multitude of com- 
 plaints resulting from a moderate stretching of the muscles : head-

 northeast winds, after colds, overlifting, disagreeable emotions, etc.). 
 
 Renewal of pains and complaints while at rest, and disappearance 
 of the same while in motion. 
 
 Most of the ailments come on at night, and are increased with a 
 low barometer, with north and northeast* winds, in winter and 
 towards spring. 
 
 Uneasy, frightful, or at least too vivid, dreams. 
 
 Unhealthy skin; every little lesion passes into sores; cracked

 Frequent boils, frequent felons (whitlows). 
 
 Dry skin on the limbs; on the arms, the thighs, and also at times

 Here or there a rough, scaling spot on the skin, which causes 
 at times a voluptuous itching and, after the rubbing, a burning sen- 
 sation. 
 
 Here or there at times, though seldom, a single insufferably pleas- 
 ant, but unbearably itching vesicle, at its point sometimes filled with 
 pus, and causing a burning sensation after rubbing, on a finger, on 
 the wrist or in some other place. 
 
 Suffering from several or from a greater number of these ailments 
 (even at various times and frequently), a person will still consider him- 
 self as healthy, and is supposed to be so by others. He may also lead 
 a quite endurable life in such a state, and without much hindrance, 
 attend to his business as long as he is young or still in his vigorous 
 years, and so long as he does not suffer any particular mishap from 
 without, has a satisfactory income, does not live in vexation or grief, 
 does not overexert himself; but especiall}^ if he is of quite a cheerful, 
 equable, patient, contented, disposition. With such persons the 
 psora (internal itch malady), which may be recognized by a connois- 
 seur hy means of a few or by more of the above symptoms, may 
 slumber on for man^^ years within, without causing any continuing 
 chronic disease.

 west winds. — Trail si. 
 
48 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 But still, even in such favorable external relations, as soon as 
 these persons advance in age, even moderate causes (a slight vexa- 
 tion, or a cold, or an error in diet, etc.), maj^ produce a viole?it attack 
 of (Jiowever ojily a briefs disease: a violent attack of colic, inflamma- 
 tion of the chest or the throat, erysipelas, fever and the like, and the 
 violence of these attacks seems to be out of proportion to its moderate 
 cause. This is mostly wont to happen in fall* or winter, but often 
 also by preference in springtime. 
 
 But even where a person, whether a child or an adult, w^ho has 
 the psora slumbering within him, shows much semblance of health, 
 but happens upon the opposite of the above- described favorable con- 
 ditions of life, when his health and whole organism have been very 
 much weakened and shaken b3^ a prevalent epidemic fever or an 
 infectious acute disease,^ smallpox, measles, whooping cough, scarlet 
 fever, purple rash, etc , or through an external severe lesion, a 
 shock, a fall, a wound, a considerable burn, the breaking of an arm 
 or a leg, a hard labor, the confinement due to a disease {usually 
 helped on by the incorrect and weakening Allopathic treatment), 
 confinement at a sedentary occupation in a gloom}^, close room, 
 weakening the vital force; the sad losses of beloved relatives bending 
 down the soul with grief, or daily vexation and annoyance 
 which embitter the life; deterioration of the food or an entire want of 
 what is necessary and indispensable, exposure and in- 
 ferior food beating down man's courage and strength; then 
 \)i& psora, which has hitherto slumbered, awakes and shows itself in 
 the heightened and augmented symptoms enumerated below, in its 
 transition to the formation of severe maladies; one or another of the 
 nameless (psoric) chronic diseases f breaks out and most of all 
 
 * At the termination of an acute fever there often follows, as if incited by 
 such a fever, an appearance of an oldi psora residing in the body, as an eruption 
 of itch. This the physicians explain as a new generation of itch in this indi- 
 vidual body replete with bad humors {scilicet), since they know nothing of a 
 psora in man which may be quiescent for a long period. But the itch-disease 
 cannot now be generated or arise or be created anew of itself, just as no small- 
 pox or cow-pox, no measles, no venereal chancre disease, etc., can now make 
 its appearance with any man without previous infection. 
 
 t The one or the other disease, according to the original bodily constitu- 
 tion, a peculiar mode of li\4ng, a peculiar disposition of the mind often arising 
 from the individual education or a more receptive or more weakened condition 
 of some part of the body, gives a peculiar direction to the disease, and 
 thus causes the itch disease to lead to the origin of the one or the 
 other disease, so as to show itself preferably in that one direction 
 and develop itself in that particular modification. A passionate, peevish 
 disposition gives an extraordinary predisposition to the development 
 of the psora; so also previous exhaustion through frequent preo-- 
 nancies, excessive nursing of infants, extraordinary hardships, exhaust- 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 49 
 
 through li^eakeiiing and exliaiLstiiig improper treabnent by allopathic 
 physicians, they are aggravate dfrom time to time without intermis- 
 
 ing erroneous medical treatment, debauchery, and a profligate mode of 
 hving. The internal itch-disease is, as before mentioned, of such a pecuHar 
 nature that it may remain, as it were, tied down and covered up for a long time 
 through external favorable surroundings, so that a man may seem to the super- 
 ficial observer healthy for years, even for many years, until circumstances 
 unfavorable to the body or the soul, or to both, may arise, and serve as a hos- 
 tile impulse to awaken the disease slumbering within and thus develop its 
 germs. His acquaintances and his physician, yea, the patient himself, can 
 not then comprehend how his health could so suddenly fall into a decline. 
 To bring some examples for explanation from my own experience: After a 
 simple fracture of a limb attended with confinement to bed for five or six 
 weeks, there may follow diseased conditions of another kind, the cause of which 
 cannot be guessed, which diseased condition, even when measurably removed, 
 nevertheless returns, and which even without any error in diet nevertheless 
 at their return show aggravation. This is mostly the case in fall (winter) and 
 spring and becomes a tedious ailment increasing from year to year, a last- 
 ing cure for which, without the substitution of a still worse disease for it by an 
 allopathic cure, has been hitherto vainly sought for in the councils of former 
 physicians and also in visits to mineral springs. There are in man's life 
 innumerable stumbling-blocks or unfavorable occurrences of this kind which 
 serve to awaken the psora (the internal itch-disease) which till then has been 
 slumbering (perhaps for a long time previously) and which cause its germs to 
 develop. They are often of such a nature that the grave evils which gradually 
 follow on them are out of all proportion to them, so that no rational man can 
 consider those occurrences as sufficient causes for the chronic diseases which 
 follow and which are often of a fearful character. But such a man is compelled 
 to acknowledge a deeper seated hostile cause of these appearances, which cause 
 has only now developed itself 
 
 For example, a young married woman who, viewed superficially and 
 according to the common standard, was healthy, but who had in her childhood 
 heen infected with psora, had the misfortune to be thrown out of her carriage 
 while in the third month of her pregnancy, from which she suffered not 
 only slight injury and the fright, but also a miscarriage, and the attendino- 
 loss of blood gave her a considerable set-back. In a few weeks, however, her 
 youthful constitution had pretty well recovered, and she might have been assured 
 of a speedy return to lasting good health, when the announcement of the dan- 
 gerous illness of a beloved sister, living at a distance, threw her back and aug- 
 mented her former ailments, which had not yet been quite removed, by the 
 addition of a multitude of nervous disorders and convulsions, thus turnino- 
 them into a serious illness. Better news from her sister, indeed, follow, and at 
 last good news. At last her sister, entirely restored herself, pays her a \'isit. 
 But the sick young wife still remains sick, and even if she seems to recover 
 for a vfeek or two, her ailments nevertheless return without any apparent 
 •cause. Kvery succeeding confinement, even when quite easy, everv hard 
 winter, adds new ailments to the old, or the former disorders change into 
 •others still more troublesome, so that at last there ensues a serious chronic ill- 
 :ness, though no one can see why the full vigor of youth, attended by happy 
 ^external surroundings, should not have soon wiped out the consequence of that 
 
50 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 sion, often to a fearful height, if external circumstances favorable for 
 the patient do not interpose, and cause a moderation in the process 
 of the malad3\ 
 
 one miscarriage; still less can it be explained why the unfortunate impression 
 of those sad tidings should not have disappeared, on hearing of the recovery of 
 her sister, or at least on the actual presence of her sister fully restored. 
 
 If the cause must at all times be proportionate to its effect and consequence, 
 as is the case in nature, no one can see how, after the removal of the causes as- 
 sailing her health, the resulting ailments could not only continue, but even 
 increase from year to year, if their cause were not in something else, something 
 deeper, so that those unhappy occurrences (the miscarriage and the sad tidings), 
 since they both disappeared of themselves and therefore could not possibly yield 
 a sufficient ground for the ensuing chronic disease, can only be regarded as the 
 occasion, but not the efficient cause, of the development of a hostile power of 
 greater importance, pre-existent in the internal organism but hitherto quiescent. 
 
 In a similar manner, a robust merchant, apparently healthy, despite some 
 traces of internal psoj^a, perceptible only to the professional examiner, may in 
 consequence of unlucky commercial conjunctures become involved in his 
 finances, even so as to approach bankruptcy, and at the same time he will fall 
 gradually into various ailments and finally into serious illness. The death of a 
 rich kinsman, however, and the gaining of a great prize in a lottery, abundantly 
 cover his commercial losses; he becomes a man of means — but his illness, 
 nevertheless, not only continues but increases from year to year, despite all 
 medical prescriptions, in spite of his visiting the most famous baths, or rather, 
 perhaps, with the assistance of these two causes. 
 
 A modest girl, who, excepting some signs of internal psora, was accounted 
 quite healthy, was compelled into a marriage which made her unhappy of soul, 
 and in the same degree her bodily health declined, without any trace of venereal 
 infection. No allopathic medicine alleviates her sad ailments, which continu- 
 ally grow more threatening. But in the midst of this aggravation, after one 
 year's suffering, the cause of her unhappiness, her hated husband, is taken from 
 her by death, and she seems to revive, in the conviction, that she is now delivered 
 from every occasion of mental or bodily illness, and hopes for a speedy recovery; 
 all her friends hope the same for her, as the exciting cause of her illness lies in 
 the grave. She also improves speedily, but unexpectedly she still remained an 
 invalid, despite the vigor of her youth; yea, her ailments but seldom leave her, 
 and are renewed from time to time without any external cause, and they are 
 even aggravated from year to 3^ear in the rough months. 
 
 A person who had been unjustly suspected and become involved in a serious 
 criminal suit, and who had before seemed healthy, ^4th the exception of the 
 marks of latent pso7'a mentioned above, during these harassing months fell into 
 various diseased states. But finally the innocence of the accused is acknowledged, 
 and an honorable acquittal followed. We might suppose that such a happy, 
 gratifying event would necessarily give new life to the accused and remove all 
 bodily complaints. But this does not take place, the person still at times suffers 
 from these ailments, and they are even renewed mth longer or briefer inter- 
 missions, and are aggravated with the passing years, especially in the wintry 
 seasons. 
 
 How shall we explain this? If that disagreeable event had been the cause, 
 the sufficient cause, of these ailments, ought not the effect; i. e., the disease to 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 5 1 
 
 But even if favorable external conditions should again check the 
 rapid development of a disease that has broken out, true health can 
 not be lastingly restored by any of the modes of treatment hitherto 
 known, and the customary allopathic treatments, with their aggres- 
 sive, inappropriate remedies — such as baths, mercury, prussic acid, 
 iodine, digitalis, quinine, starvation and other fashionable remedies 
 included — only hasten death, the end of all those maladies which 
 the ph3^sician cannot heal. 
 
 When once, under the above-mentioned unfavorable outward sur- 
 roundings, the transition oi\\\.^ psora from its slumbering and bound 
 condition to its awakening and outbreak has taken place, and the 
 patient leaves himself to the injurious activity of the usual allo- 
 pathic physician, who deems it appropriate to his office and his 
 income to mercilessly assault the organism of the patient (as we are 
 sorry to witness every day) with the battering-rams of his violent,, 
 inappropriate remedies and weakening treatments; — in such a case, 
 the external circumstances of the patient and his situation with 
 respect to his surroundings may have changed ever so favorably, but 
 the aggravation of the disease nevertheless proceeds under such 
 hands without any escape. 
 
 The awakening of the internal psora which has hitherto slumbered 
 and been latent, and, as it were, kept bound by a good bodily consti- 
 tution and favorable external circumstances, as well as its breaking 
 out into more serious ailments and maladies, is announced by the in- 
 crease of the symptoms given above as indicating the slumbering 
 psora, and also by a numberless multitude of various other signs and 
 complaints. These are varied according to the difference in the bodily 
 constitution of a man, his hereditary disposition, the various errors 
 in his education and habits, his manner of living and diet, his em- 
 ployments, his turn of mind, his morality, etc. 
 
 Then when the itch-malady develops into a manifest secondar}^ 
 disease there appear the following symptoms, which I have derived 
 and observed altogether from accounts of diseases which I m^^self 
 have treated successfully and which confessedly originated from the 
 contagion of itch, and were mixed neither with syphilis nor s3xosis. 
 
 have entirely ceased of necessity, after the removal of the cause ? But these 
 ailments do not cease, they are in time renewed and even gradually aggravated, 
 and it becomes evident that those disagreeable events could not have been the 
 sufficient cause of the present ailments and complaints — it is seen that they 
 only served as an occasio7i and impetus tozuard the development of a malady, 
 which till then only slumbered within. 
 
 The recognition of this old internal foe, which is so frequently present, and 
 the science which is able to overcome it, make it manifest, that generally an in- 
 dwelling itch disease {psoi'a) was the ground of all these ailments, which can 
 not be overcome even by the vigor of the best constitution, but only through 
 art. 
 
52 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 I am quite willing to believe that many more symptoms ma}^ have 
 occurred in the experience of others. 
 
 I would onl}^ add further, that among the symptoms adduced 
 there are also such as are entirely opposed to each other, the reason 
 of which may be found in the varying bodily constitutions existing 
 at the time — when the outbreak of the internal psora occurred. Yet 
 the one variety of symptoms is found more rarely than the other and 
 it offers no particular obstruction to a cure: 
 
 Vertigo; reeling while walking.

 if stunned, or throws herself anxiously from side to side, the attacks lasting 
 from twelve to twenty-four and more hours. After these attacks either great 
 weariness with sadness, or a feeling of tension all over the body. Before these 
 attacks there are frequently jerks of the limbs during sleep and starting up from 
 sleep, anxious dreams, gnashing of the teeth in sleep and tendency to start at 
 any sudden noise.

 ^Diabetes, which with Allopathic remedies is usually so fatal, has probably 
 never any other origin than this malady. 
 
 5 The urine frequently passes off as thin as a thread, or the stream spreads 
 out; the urine is only discharged in jerks at long intervals; these interruptions 
 are frequently caused by a spasm in the neck of the bladder which antagonizes 
 the action of the bladder and springs from the same psoric malady. So also 
 inflammation of the bladder from strictures of the urethra, and the fistula in 
 vesica are always of psoric origin, though in rare cases sycosis may be compli- 
 cated with the psora.

 white, or yellow mucus, or like acrid, or sometimes like fetid, water.^ 
 
 Premature births. 
 
 ^ The menses rarely come several days too late, and flow then in too great 
 abundance, with prostrating weariness and many other ailments. 
 
 ^ Often followed by swelling of the face, of the hands and feet, painful 
 spasms in the breast and the abdomen, innumerable ailments from nervous de- 
 bility, excessive sensitiveness, as well in general, as of particular sensory 
 organs, etc., and before the appearance of the flow, anxious dreams, frequent 
 awakenings with a rush of blood to the head, palpitation, restlessness, etc. 
 With a more violent flow of blood from the uterus, there are often cutting pains 
 in the one side of the abdomen and in the groin; the cutting pain sometimes 
 descends into the rectum and into the thigh; then she frequently cannot urinate, 
 or sit down, on account of her pains; after these pains the abdomen aches as if 
 it were festering. 
 
 ^Leucorrhoea, especially the more malignant kind, is accompanied by an 
 innumerable multitude of ailments. Not to mention the lesser ones (such as the 
 itching of the pudenda and the vagina, with excoriation on the outside of the 
 pudenda and the adjacent part of the thigh, especially in walking), h5'sterical 
 states of all kinds follow the more severe cases of this troublesome flux, as also 
 disturbances of the mind and spirit, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, etc. Often 
 it comes in the form of an attack, and then it is preceded by a digging in the 
 one side of the abdomen, or b}- burning in the stomach, in the lower abdomen, 
 in the vagina, or stitches in the vagina and in the mouth of the uterus, or a con- 
 strictive pain in the uterus and pressure toward the vagina as if everything were 
 about to fall out, also at times most keen pains in the small of the back; the 
 flatus is obstructed, causing pain, etc. Has the so-called uterine cancer any 
 other origin than this (psora) maladv?

 torments him, until perspiration breaks out on his face (and on his 
 hands) . 
 
 Cough, which does not abate until there is retching and vomit- 
 ing, mostl}^ in the morning or in the evening. 
 
 Cough, which terminates every time with sneezing. 
 
 Cough mostly in the evening after l^ang down and whenever the 
 head lies low.

 Cough, especially in the night. 
 
 Cough, worst after awaking in the morning. 
 
 Cough, worst after eating. 
 
 Cough, at once with every deep breath. 
 
 Cough, causing a sensation of soreness in the chest, or at times 
 stitches in the side of the chest or the abdomen. 
 
 Dry cough. 
 
 ^ Inflammation of the larynx ( croup ) cannot take place with am^ child that 
 is free from latent psora or has been made free from it by treatment. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 67 
 
 Cough, with yellow expectoration resembling pus, with or with- 
 out spitting of blood. ^ 
 
 Cough, wdth excessive expectoration of mucus and sinking of the 
 strength (mucous phthisis). 
 
 Attacks of whooping cough. ^ 
 
 Violent, at times unbearable stitches in the chest at every breath; 
 cough impossible for pain; without inflammatory fever (spurious 
 pleurisy). 
 
 Pain in the chest on walking, as if the chest was about to burst. 
 
 Pressive pain in the chest, at deep breathing or at sneezing. 
 
 Often a sHghtly constrictive pain in the chest, which, when it. 
 does not quickly pass, causes the deepest dejection.^ 
 
 Burning pain in the chest. 
 
 Frequent stitches in the chest, with or without cough. 
 
 Violent stitches in the side; with great heat of the body, it is al- 
 most impossible to breathe, on account of stitches in the chest with- 
 hemoptysis and headache; he is confined to his bed. 
 
 Night-mare; he usually suddenly awakes at night from a fright- 
 fill dream, but cannot move, nor call, nor speak, and when he en- 
 deavors to move, he suffers intolerable pains, as if he were being 
 torn to pieces.* 
 
 Obstruction of the breath, with stitching pains in the chest at 
 the slightest amount of walking;^ he cannot go a step farther (angina 
 pectoris). 
 
 Asthma, merely when moving the arms, not while walking. 
 
 Attacks of suffocation especially after midnight; the patient has 
 to sit up, sometimes he has to leave his bed, stand stooping forward, 
 leaning on his hands; he has to open the windows, or go out into the 
 open air, etc.; he has palpitations; these are followed by eructations 
 or yawning, and the spasm terminates with or without coughing and 
 expectoration. 
 
 ^ Suppurative pulmonary phthisis has probably seldom any other cause 
 than this malady, even when it seems as if the fumes of quicksilver or arsenic 
 had caused it; at least most of these cases of suppurative phthisis originate in 
 pneumonias mismanaged with blood-letting, and this disease ma}- alwa^-s be 
 considered as the manifestation of latent Psora. 
 
 ^She is suddenly compelled to cough, but cannot do so, as her breath fails 
 her, even to suffocation, with a dark-red, bloated face; usually the oesophagus 
 is then also constricted, so that not a drop of water will pass; after eight or ten 
 minutes, there follow eructations from the stomach, and the spasm terminates. 
 
 ^ Usually the attacks last from evening to morning, the whole night. 
 
 *Such attacks, in some cases, also occur several times in one night, 
 especially when he has not been out in the open air during the day. 
 
 ^ Especially when ascending a height. 
 
68 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 Palpitation with anxiety, especially at night. 
 
 Asthma, loud, difficult, at times also sibilant respiration. 
 
 Shortness of breath. 
 
 Asthma, on moving, with or without cough. 
 
 Asthma, mostly while sitting down. 
 
 Asthma, spasmodic; when she comes into the open air it takes 
 her breath. 
 
 Asthma, in attacks, lasting several weeks. 
 
 Dwindling of the breasts, or excessive enlargement of the same, 
 with retroceding nipples. 
 
 Erysipelas on one of the breasts (especially while nursing) . 
 
 A hard, enlarging and indurating gland with lancinating pains 
 in one of the mammae.^ 
 
 Itching, also moist and scaly eruptions around the nipples. 
 
 In the small of the back, in the back and in the nape of the neck, 
 drawing (tearing), tensive pains. 
 
 Lancinating, cutting, painful stiffness of the nape of the neck; of 
 the small of the back. 
 
 Pressive pain between the shoulder-blades. 
 
 Sensation of pressure upon the shoulders. 
 
 In the limbs, drawing (tearing), tensive pains, partly in the 
 muscles and partly in the joints (rheumatism).

 the long bones, pressive and pressive-drawing pains. ^ 
 
 Stitching pains in the fingers or toes.^ 
 
 Stitches in the heels and soles of the feet while standing. 
 
 Burning in the soles of the feet.* 
 
 In the joints a sort of tearing, Hke scraping on the bone, with a 
 red, hot swelling which is painfully sensitive to the touch and to the. 
 air, with unbearably sensitive, peevish disposition (gout, podagra, 
 chiragra, gout in the knees, etc.).^ 
 
 The joints of the fingers, swollen with pressive pains, painful 
 when touching and bending them. 
 
 1 Is it probable that the different varieties of cancer of the breast have any 
 other origin than this psora malady ? 
 
 These spots then also pain on being touched, as if they were bruised or 
 
 2 
 
 sore. 
 
 ^ In worse, chronic cases, this is aggravated into a cutting pain. 
 
 * Especially at night under a feather bed. 
 
 5 The pains are either worse in daytime, or at night. After every attack, 
 and when the inflammation is past, the joints of the hand are painful, as also 
 those of the knee, the foot, those of the big toe when moved, when he stands 
 up, etc., they feel intolerably benumbed and the limb is weakened. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 69 
 
 Thickening of the joints; they remain hard swollen, and there is 
 pain on bending them. 
 
 The joints, as it were, stiff, with painful, difficult motion, the 
 ligaments seem too short. ^ 
 
 Joints, painful on motion.^ 
 
 Joints crack on moving, or they make a snapping noise. 
 
 The joints are easily sprained or strained.^ 
 
 Increasing disposition to strains and to overlift oneself even at a 
 very slight exertion of the muscles, even in slight mechanical work, 
 in reaching out or stretching for something high up, in lifting things 
 that are not heavy, in quick turns of the body, pushing, etc. Such 
 a tension or stretching of ^the muscles often then occasions long con- 
 finement to the bed, swoons, all grades of hysterical troubles,* fever, 
 hemoptysis, etc. , while persons who are not psoric lift such burdens 
 as their muscles are able to, without the slightest after effects.^ 
 
 The joints are easily sprained at any false movement.*^ 
 
 In the joint, of the foot there is pain on treading, as if it would 
 break. 
 
 Softening of the bones, curvature of the spine (deformity, hunch- 
 back), curvature of the long bones of the thighs and legs {morbus 
 angliacs, rickets). 
 
 Fragility of the bones. 
 
 Painful sensitiveness of the skin, the muscles and of the periosteum 
 on a moderate pressure. '^ 
 
 ^ E. g.^ the tendo AchUlis on standing erect, stiffness of the tarsus, of the 
 knees, either transient (after sitting, when rising), or permanent (contraction.) 
 
 '^E.g., the shoulder-joint on raising the arm; the tarsus pains on treading 
 as if it was about to break. 
 
 ^ E. g., the tarsus, the wrist-joint, the joint of the thumb. 
 
 * Often also, at once severe headache in the crown of the head, which is then 
 also painful externally when touched, or suddenly a pain in the small of the 
 back, or pain in the uterus, not unfrequently stitches in the side of the breast, or 
 between the shoulder blades, which check the respiration, or painful stiffness of 
 the neck or spine, frequent audible eructations, etc. 
 
 ^The common people, especially in the country, seek alleviation through 
 a sort of mesmeric stroking, but without lasting effects; the tendency to over- 
 lifting nevertheless remains. It is usually a woman (called SiStroki)ig zcoinajt) 
 who makes with the tips of her thumbs passes over the shoulder blades toward 
 the shoulders or along the spine, sometimes also from the pit of the stomach 
 along below the ribs, only they usually exert too strong a pressure while strok- 
 ing. 
 
 ^ E. g.. the ankle at a false step, so also the shoulder-joint. Of this kind is 
 also the gradual luxation of the hip-joint (/., e. of the head of the femur from 
 the aceiabulum, when the leg then becomes too long, or too short, causing 
 limping). 
 
 ^ As when he moderately strikes against something, it becomes very painful 
 
70 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 Intolerable ' pain in the skin (or in the muscles, or in the peri- 
 osteum) of some part of the body from a slight movement of the same 
 or of a more distant part; e. g., from T;\Tdting there arises a pain in 
 the shoulder or in the side of the neck, etc. , while sawing or perform- 
 ing other hard labor with the same hand causes no pain; a similar 
 pain in the adjacent parts, from speaking and moving the mouth; 
 pain in the lips and in the back at a slight touch. 
 
 Numbness of the skin or of the muscles of certain parts and hmbs.' 
 
 Bying off of certain fingers or of the hands or feet.^ 
 
 Crawling or also prickling formication (as from the limbs going to 
 sleep) in the arms, in the legs and in other parts (even in the finger- 
 tips). 
 
 A crawling, or whirhng, or an internally itching restlessness, 
 especially in the lower limbs (in the evening in bed or early on 
 awaking) ; the}^ must be brought into another position ever}^ moment. 
 
 Painful sensation of cold in various parts. 
 
 Burning pains in various parts (frequenth^ without any change 
 in the usual external bodily temperature). 
 
 Coldness, repeated or constant of the whole bod}- , or of the one 
 side of the bod}^; so also of single parts, cold hands, cold feet which 
 frequentlj' will not get warm in bed. 
 
 Chilliness, constant, even without any change in the external 
 bodih^ temperature. 
 
 Frequent flushes of heat, especiallj^ in the face, more frequently 
 with redness than without; sudden, violent sensation of heat during 
 rest, or in slight motion, sometimes even from speaking, with or 
 without perspiration breaking out. 
 
 Warm air in the room or at church is exceedingl}^ repugnant to 
 
 and for a long time; the parts on which he hes in bed are very painful, where- 
 fore he frequently turns over at night; the posterior muscles of the thigh and 
 the bone on which she sits are quite sore; a slight stroke with the hand on the 
 thighs causes great pain. A slight knock against a hard object leaves blue 
 marks, suffusion of blood. 
 
 ^ Of incredible variety. Often burning, jerking, lancinating, but often also 
 indescribable, are these pains which communicate a similar intolerable exces- 
 sive sensitiveness to the mind. These pains thus affect chiefly the upper parts 
 of the body, or the face {tic douloureux), or the skin of the neck, etc., at even 
 a gentle touch, in speaking and chewing, — in the shoulder at a slight pressure, 
 or movement of the finger. 
 
 -The sense of touch is lacking; the parts feel hard and tumid, either 
 periodical!}- or permanently (constant insensibilit}-). 
 
 ^The limb then becomes white, bloodless, without feeling and quite cold, 
 often for hours, especially while it is cool (stroking with a piece of zinc toward 
 the tips of the fingers or the toes usually drives it away quickly, but only as a 
 palliative).

 her, makes her restless, causes her to move about (at times with a 
 pressure in the head, over the eyes, not infrequently alleviated by 
 epistaxis) . 
 
 Rushes of blood, also at times a sensation of throbbing in all the 
 arteries (while he often looks quite pale, with a feeling of prostration 
 throughout the bod}^). 
 
 Rush of blood to the head. 
 
 Rush of blood to the chest. 
 
 Varices, varicose veins in the lower limbs (varices on the 
 pudenda), also on the arms (even with men), often with tearing pains 
 in them (during storms), or with itching in the varices.^

 on the breast while nursing, especially in a sore place (with a prick- 
 ling and burning pain). 
 
 Whitlow, paronychia (sore finger with festering skin). 
 
 Chilblains (even when it is not winter) on the toes and fingers, 
 itching, burning and lancinating pains. 
 
 Corns, which even without external pressure cause burning, lan- 
 cinating pains. 
 
 Boils (furuncles), returning from time to time, especially on the 
 nates, the thighs, the upper arms and the body. Touching them 
 causes fine stitches in them. 
 
 Ulcers on the thighs, especially, also upon the ankles and above 
 them and on the lower part of the calves, with itching, gnawing, 
 tickling around the borders, and a gnawing pain as from salt on the 
 base of the ulcer itself ; the parts surrounding are of brown and bluish 
 color, with varices near the ulcers, which, during storms and rains, 
 often cause tearing pains, especially at night, often accompanied with 
 erysipelas after vexation or fright, or attended with cramps in the 
 calves. 
 
 Tumefaction and suppuration of the humerus, the femur, the 
 patella, also of the bones of the fingers and toes {spina veiitosd). 
 
 Thickening and stiffening of the joints. 
 
 Eruptions, either arising from time to time and passing awa}' 
 again; some voluptuously itching pustules, especially on the fingers 
 or other parts, which, after scratching, burn and have the greatest 
 similarity to the original itch-eruption; 
 
 or 7iettle-rash, like stings and water-blisters, mostly with 
 
 burning pain; 
 ox pimples without pain in the face, the chest, the back, the 
 arms and the thighs;

 or herpes in fine miliary grains, closely pressed together into 
 round, larger or smaller spots of mostly reddish color, 
 sometimes dry, sometimes moist, with itching, similar to 
 the eruption of itch and with burning after rubbing 
 them. They continually extend further to the circum- 
 ference wdth redness, while the middle seems to become 
 free from the eruption and covered wath smooth, shining 
 skin {Jierpes circinatus). The moist herpes on the legs 
 are called salt-rheum; 
 or crusts raised above the surrounding skin, round in form, 
 wdth deep-red, painless borders, with frequent violent 
 stitches on the parts of the skin not yet affected; 
 or small, round spots on the skin, covered wdth bran-like, 
 dry scales, which often peel off and are again renewed 
 without sensation; 
 or red spots of the skin, which feel dry, with burning pain; 
 somew^hat raised above the rest of the skin. 
 Freckles, small and round, browm or brownish spots in the face, 
 on the hands and on the chest, without sensation. 
 
 Liver spots, large browmish spots which often cover whole limbs, 
 the arms, the neck, the chest, etc., without sensation or with itching. 
 Yellowness of the skin, yellow^ spots of a like nature around the 
 eyes, the mouth, on the neck, etc., without sensibility^ ^ 
 Warts on the face, the lower arm, the hands, etc.^ 
 Encysted tumors in the skin, the cellular tissue beneath it, or in 
 the burses mucosa of the tendons (exostosis), of various forms and 
 sizes, cold without sensibility.^ 
 
 Glandular swellings around the neck, in the groin, in the bend 
 of the joints, the bend of the elbow^ of the knee, in the axillae,* also 
 in the breasts. 
 
 Dryness of the (scarf) skin either on the w^hole body with in- 
 ability to perspire through motion and heat, or only in some parts. ^ 
 
 ^ After riding in a carriage, yellowness of the skin comes on most quickly, 
 if it is not yet constant but only occasional. 
 
 2 Especially in youth. Many remain only a short time and pass away to 
 give place to another symptom of psora. 
 
 ^ The fungus hematodes, which has lately become such a dreadful plague, 
 has, according to the conclusions I am compelled to draw from several cases, 
 no other source than psora. 
 
 * At times the}- pass over, after lancinating pains, into a sort of chronic sup- 
 puration, in which, however, instead of pus, only a colorless mucus is secreted. 
 
 ^ Especially on the hands, the outer side of the arms and legs, and even in 
 the face; the skin is dry, rough, parched, feels chapped, and often has scales 
 like bran. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 73 
 
 Disagreeable sensation of drjmess over the whole body (also in 
 the face, around and in the mouth, in the throat, or in the nose, 
 although the breath passes freely through it). 
 
 Perspiration comes too easih' from slight motion; even while 
 sitting, he is attacked with perspiration all over, or merely on some 
 parts; e. g., almost constant perspiration of the hands and feet,^ so 
 also strong perspiration in the axillae ' and around the pudenda. 
 
 Daily morning sweats, often causing the patient to drip, this for 
 many j^ears, often with sour or pungent-sour smell. '^ 
 
 One-sided perspiration, only on one side of the body, or only on 
 the upper part of the body, or only on the lower part. 
 
 Increasing susceptibility to colds, either of the whole body (often 
 even from repeatedly wetting the hands, now with warm water, then 
 with cold, as in washing clothes), or only susceptibility of certain 
 parts of the body, of the head, the neck, the chest, the abdomen, the 
 feet, etc., often in a moderate or slight draught, or after slightly 
 moistening these parts ;'^ even from being in a cooler room, in a rainy 
 atmosphere, or with a low barometer. 
 
 So-called weather prophets ; i. <?. , renewed severe pains in parts of 
 the body which were formerly injured, wounded, or broken, though 
 they have since been healed and cicatrized; this renewed pain sets 
 in, when great changes of the weather, great cold, or a storm are 
 imminent, or when a thunderstorm is in the air. 
 
 Watery swelling, either of the feet alone, or in one foot, or in the 
 hands, or the face, or the abdomen, or the scrotum, etc., alone, or 
 again cutaneous swelling over the whole body (dropsies) . 
 
 Attacks of sudden heaviness of the arms or legs. 
 
 Attacks of paralytic weakness and paralytic lassitude of the one 
 arm, the one hand, the one leg, without pain, either arising suddenl}^ 
 and passing quickly, or commencing gradually and constanth' in- 
 creasino:. 
 
 ^ The latter is usually very fetid and so abundant that, after even a short 
 walk, the s@les of the feet, the heels and toes are soaked and sore. 
 
 2 Not infrequently of red color or of a rank smell like that of he goats or 
 that of garlic. 
 
 •^ Here belongs the perspiration of psoric children on their head after going 
 to sleep in the evening. 
 
 *The ailments following from it, immediately afterwards, are then con- 
 siderable and manifold: Pains in the limbs, headaches, catarrh, sore throat, 
 and inflammation of the throat, cor3^za, swelling of the glands of the neck, 
 hoarseness, cough, dyspnoea, stitches in the chest, fever, troubles of digestion, 
 colic, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomachache, rising of water from the stomach, also 
 stitches in the face and other parts, iaundice-like color of the skin, etc. No 
 person who is not psoric ever suffers the least after-effects from such causes. 
 
74 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 Sudden bending of the knees. 
 
 Children fall easil}^ without an}^ visible cause. Also similar 
 attacks of weakness, with adults, in the legs, so that in walking one 
 foot glides this wa^' and the other that wa}', etc. 
 
 While walking in the open air sudden attacks of faintness, 
 especiall}^ in the legs.^ 
 
 While sitting, the patient feels intolerablj^ weary, but stronger 
 while walking. 
 
 The predisposition to spraining and straining the joints at a mis- 
 step, or a wrong grasp, increases at times even to dislocation; e. g., in 
 the tarsus, the shoulder-joint, etc. 
 
 The snapping and cracking of the joints at an}^ motion of the 
 limb increases with a disagreeable sensation. 
 
 The going to sleep of the limbs increases and follows on slight 
 causes; e. g., in supporting the head with the arm, crossing the legs 
 while sitting, etc. 
 
 The painful cramps in some of the muscles increase and come on 
 without appreciable cause. 
 
 Slow, spasmodic straining of the flexor muscles of the limbs. 
 
 Sudden jerks of some muscles and limbs even while waking; e. g. , 
 of the tongue, the lips, the muscles of the face, of the pharynx, of 
 the eyes, of the jaws, of the hands and of the feet. 
 
 Tonic shortening of the flexor muscles (tetanus) . 
 
 Involuntary turning and twisting of the head, or the limbs, with 
 full consciousness (St. Vitus' dance). 
 
 Sudden fainting spells and sinking of the strength, with loss of 
 consciousness. 
 
 Attacks of tremor in the limbs, without anxiety. Continuous, 
 constant trembling, also in some cases beating with the hands, the 
 arms, the legs. 
 
 Attacks of loss of consciousness, lasting a moment or a minute, 
 with an inclination of the head to the one shoulder, with or without 
 jerks of one part or the other. 
 
 Epilepsies of various kinds. 
 
 Almost constant yawning, stretching and straining of the limbs. 
 
 Sleepiness during the day, often immediately after sitting down, 
 especially after meals. 
 
 Difiiculty in falhng asleep, when abed in the evening; he often 
 lies awake for hours. 
 
 ^ At times the feeUng of faintnees seems to rise up even to the scrobiculns 
 cordis, where it turns into a ravenous hunger, which suddenly deprives him of 
 all strength; he is attacked wdth tremor and has immediately to He down for a 
 while. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 75 
 
 He passes the nights in a mere slumber. 
 
 Sleeplessness, from anxious heat, every night, an anxiety which 
 sometimes rises so high, that he must get up from his bed and walk 
 about. 
 
 After three o'clock in the morning, no sleep, or at least no sound 
 sleep. 
 
 As soon as he closes his eyes, all manner of phantastic appear- 
 ances and distorted faces appear. 
 
 In going to sleep, she is disquieted by strange, anxious fancies; 
 she has to get up and walk about. 
 
 Ver}^ vivid dreams, as if awake; or sad, frightful, anxious, vex- 
 ing, lascivious dreams. 
 
 Loud talking, screaming, during sleep. 
 
 Somnambulism; he rises up at night, while sleeping with closed 
 eyes, and attends to various duties; he performs even dangerous feats 
 with ease, without knowing anything about them when awake. 
 
 Attacks of suffocation while sleeping (nightmare). 
 
 Various sorts of severe pains at night, or nocturnal thirst, dryness 
 of the throat, of the mouth, or frequent urinating at night. 
 
 Early on awaking, dizzy, indolent, unfreshed, as if he had not 
 done sleeping and more tired than in the evening, when he lay down; 
 it takes him several hours (and only after rising) before he can re- 
 cover from this weariness. 
 
 After a very restless night, he often has more strength in the 
 morning, than after a quiet, sound sleep. 
 
 Intermittent fever, even when there are no cases about, either 
 sporadic or epidemic/ or endemic; the form, duration and t3'pe of the 
 fever are very various; quotidian, tertian, quartan, quintan or ever}^ 
 seven days. 
 
 Every evening, chills with blue nails. 
 
 Every evening, single chills. 
 
 Every evening, heat, with a rush of blood to the head, with red 
 cheeks, also at times an intervening chill. 
 
 Intermittent fever of several weeks' duration, followed b}' a moist 
 itching eruption lasting several weeks, but which is healed again 
 during a like period of intermittent fever, and alternating thus for 
 years. 
 
 Disturbances of the mind and spirit of all kinds ^' 
 
 ^ Epidemic intermittent fevers probably never seize a man who is free from 
 psora, so that wherever there is a susceptibility to them, it is to be accounted a 
 symptom of psora. 
 
 '-' I have never either in my practice, nor in any insane asykini, seen a patient 
 sufifering from melancholy, insanity, or frenzy whose disease did not have 
 
76 hahxemaxn's chroxic diseases. 
 
 Melanchoh' by itself, or with insanity', also at times alternating 
 with frenzy and hours of rationality. 
 
 Anxious oppression, early on awaking. 
 
 Anxious oppression in the evening after going to bed.' 
 
 Anxiety, several times a day (with and without pains), or at cer- 
 tain hours of the day or of the night; usually the patient then finds 
 no rest, but has to run hither and thither, and often falls into per- 
 spiration. 
 
 Melancholy, palpitation and anxiousness causes her at night to 
 wake up from sleep (mostly just before the beginning of the menses). 
 
 Mania of self-destruction" (spleen?). 
 
 A weeping mood; they often weep for hours without knowing a 
 cause for it.^ 
 
 Attacks of fear; e.g., fear of fire, of being alone, of apoplexy, of 
 becominof insane, etc. 
 
 Psora as its foundation, comphcated at times, llo^Yever, though rarely, with 
 syphilis. 
 
 ^This causes some patients to break out into a strong perspiration; others 
 feel from it merely flushes of blood and throbbing in all the arteries; with 
 others, the anxious oppression tends to constrict the throat, threatening suffoca- 
 tion, while others have a sensation, as if all the blood in their arteries were 
 standing still, causing anguish. With others, this oppression is associated mth 
 anxious images and thoughts, and seems to rise from them, while with others, 
 there is oppression without anxious ideas and thoughts. 
 
 '' This kind of disease of the mind or spirit, which is also merely psoric, 
 seems not to have been taken into consideration. Without feeling any anxiety, 
 or anxious thoughts, therefore also, without an}* one's perceiving such anxiety 
 in them, apparently in the full exercise of their reason, they are impelled, 
 urged, yea, compelled by a certain feeling of necessity, to self-destruction. 
 The)- are onh- healed b}- a cure of the Psora, if their utterances are noticed in 
 time. I say in time, for in the last stages of this kind of insanity' it is peculiarly 
 characteristic of this disease, not to utter anything about such a determination 
 to an^-one. This frenzy manifests itself in fits of one-half or of whole hours, 
 usually in the end daily, often at certain times of the day. But besides these fits 
 of destructive mania, such persons have usually also fits of anxious oppression, 
 which seem, however, to be independent of the former fits, and come at other 
 hours, accompanied partly with pulsation in the pit of the stomach, but during 
 these they are not tormented with the desire of taking their own life. These 
 attacks of anxiety which seem to be more of a bodily nature, and are not con- 
 nected with the other train of thoughts, may also be lacking, while the fits of 
 suicidal mania rule in a high degree; they may also return, when that mania is 
 in a great part extinguished through the anti-psoric remedies, so that the two 
 seem to be independent of one another, though the}- have the same original 
 malady for their foundation. 
 
 ■^ This is a sj-mptom, however, which seems to be caused by the diseased 
 state, especially of the female sex, in order to soothe temporarily more and 
 greater nerv^ous disorders. 
 
\ 
 
 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 77 
 
 Attacks of passion, resembling frenzy. 
 
 Fright caused b}^ the merest trifles; this often causes perspira- 
 tion and trembling. 
 
 Disinclination to work, in persons who else are most industrious; 
 no impulse to occupy himself, but rather the most decided repugnance 
 thereto.^ 
 
 Excessive sensitiveness.'^ 
 
 Irritabilit}^ from weakness.^ 
 
 Quick change of moods; often ver}^ merry and exuberantly so, 
 often again and, indeed, very suddenly, dejection; e. g., on account 
 of his disease, or from other trifling causes. Sudden transition from 
 cheerfulness to sadness, or vexation without a cause. 
 
 These are some of the leading symptoms observed by me, which, 
 if the}^ are often repeated, or become constant, show that the internal 
 Psora is coming forth from its latent state. They are at the same 
 time the elements, from which (under unfavorable external condi- 
 tions) the itch-malady, as it manifests itself, composes the illimitable 
 number of chronic diseases, and with one man assumes the one form, 
 with another another, according to the bodily constitution, defects 
 in the education, habits, employment and external circumstances, as 
 also modified by the various psychical and physical impressions. It 
 thus unfolds into manifold forms of disease, with so many varieties, 
 that they are by no means exhausted by the disease-symptoms 
 enumerated in the pathology of the old school, and erroneously desig- 
 nated there as well-defined, constant and peculiar diseases.'^

 2 All physical and psychical impressions, even the weaker and the weakest, 
 cause a morbid excitement, often in a high degree. Occurrences affecting the 
 mind, not only such as are of a sad and vexatious kind, but also those of a joy- 
 ous kind, cause surprising ailments and disorders; touching tales, yea, even 
 thinking of them and recalling them, cause a tumultuous excitement of the 
 nerves, and drive the anxiety into the head, etc. Even a little reading about 
 indifferent things, or looking attentively at an object; e. g., while se\sang, at- 
 tentively listening even to indifferent things, too bright a light, the loud talking 
 of several people at the same time, even single tones on a musical instrument, 
 the ringing of bells, etc., cause harmful impressions: trembling, weariness, 
 headache, chills, etc. Often the senses of smell and of taste are innnoderately 
 sensitive. In many cases even moderate bodily motion, or speaking, also 
 moderate warmth, cold, open air, wetting the skin with water, etc. Not a few

 *The supreme royal councillor Kopp, an Allopath, who is unwillingly and 
 only half and half approaching Homoeopathy, pretends to have seen chronic 
 diseases disappear of themselves— he may have seen some particular symptoms 
 disappear, which symptoms the old school, in its shortsighted fashion, con- 
 sidered with him as so many entire diseases! 
 
 tl will grant that the doctrine, that "all chronic non-venereal diseases 
 which are not extinguishable by the vital force, in an orderly course of life, 
 while external circumstances are favorable, but which even increase with the 
 years, are of psoric origin," is for all who have not fully weighed my reasons 
 and for all narrow-minded people, too great, too overwhelming. But it is none 
 the less true. Or should we regard such a chronic disease as not being psoric, 
 because the patient cannot remember, that he at sometime, all the way back to 
 his birth, has had several or more (intolerably voluptuously) itching pustules 
 of itch on his skin, or (since the itch-disease is considered as something dis- 
 graceful) is not willing to acknowledge it? His non-acknowledgment here 
 proves nothing to the contrary. 
 
 Since at all times, all the innumerable chronic diseases resulting from an 
 acknowledged preceding itch (when this has not been cured) are ineradicable 
 through the vital force, and advance in their equable course as psoric ailments, 
 and are continually aggravated: so long as the doubters of the psora doctrine 
 cannot show me any other source which is at least as probable for a (non- 
 veneric) ailment, which, despite of favorable external conditions, correct diet, 
 good morality and vigorous bodily constitution, nevertheless increases every 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 79 
 
 year, without any preceding infection from itch so far as memory goes: so long 
 I have on my side an overpowering analogous probability, i. e., 100 to i, that also 
 the individual cases of chronic disease, which show a like pi'ogression, probably 
 also are, yea, must also be of a psoric nature, although the patient cannot or 
 will not remember a preceding infection. 
 
 It is easy to doubt matters which cannot be laid before our ocular vision, 
 but in itself this doubt proves nothing at all, for according to the old rule of 
 logic: negantis est probare. 
 
 To prove the psoric nature of these chronic diseases without acknowledged 
 infection, we do not even need the fact that the anti-psoric remedies prove ef- 
 fectual therein; this serves only like the proof to a correctly solved mathemati- 
 cal problem. 
 
 Now since, in addition, the other remedies, although also selected according 
 to the similarity of their symptoms, do not by far yield so durable and thorough 
 a cure in such chronic diseases, as those which are recognized as anti-psoric, 
 and which are selected in as Homoeopathic a manner, because these more than 
 the others are adequate to the whole extent of the endless number of symptoms 
 of the great psora malady: I do not see why men will deny to the latter the 
 title of the especially anti-psoric remedies, unless this springs from dogmatism. 
 
 And just as little is there any good reason for contradicting me, when I 
 {Organon, | 73,) explain the acute diseases which return from time to time; 
 e. g., inflammations of the throat, of the chest, etc., as flaming up from a latent 
 psora, simply because their inflammatory state, as they say, is mostly to be 
 combatted by means of the anti-phlogistic remedies, which are not anti-psoric; 
 i. e., Aconite, Belladonna, Mercury and the like. These, nevertheless, have 
 their source in a latent psora, because their customary return cannot be pre- 
 vented by anything but a final cure with anti-psoric remedies. 
 
Cure of the Chronic Diseases 
 
CURE. 
 
 We now proceed to the medical Homoeopathic treatment of the 
 illimitabl}^ large number of chronic diseases, which, after the above 
 gained knowledge of their threefold nature, has not, indeed, become 
 easy, but — what without this knowledge was before impossible — has 
 at last become possible, since the homoeopathicall}" specific remedies 
 for each one of these three different miasmata have in great part 
 been discovered. 
 
 The first two miasmata, which cause by far the smaller part of 
 the chronic diseases, the venereal chancre-disease {syphilis^ and the 
 Jigwart-disease (sycosis), with their sequelae, we will treat first, in 
 order that we may have a free path to the therapeutics of the im- 
 measurably greater number of the various chronic diseases which 
 spring from Psora. 
 
SYCOSIS, 
 
 First, then, concerning sycosis, as being that miasma which has 
 produced by far the fewest chronic diseases, and has only been domi- 
 nant from time to time. This figwart-disease , which in later times, 
 especiall}^ during the French war, in the years 1809-18 14, was so 
 widely spread, but which has since showed itself more and more 
 rarel}^ was treated almost always, in an inefficient and injurious 
 manner, internally with mercury, because it was considered homo- 
 geneous with the venereal chancre-disease; but the excrescences on 
 the genitals were treated by Allopathic physicians always in the most 
 violent external way by cauterizing, burning and cutting, or by liga- 
 tures. These excrescences usually first manifest themselves on the 
 genitals, and appear usually, but not always, attended with a sort of 
 gonorrhoea^ from the urethra, several days or several weeks, even 
 many weeks after infection through coition; more rarely they appear 
 dry and like warts, more frequently soft, spongy, emitting a specific- 
 ally fetid fluid (sweetish and almost like herring-brine), bleeding 
 easily, and in the form of a coxcomb or a cauliflower {brassica 
 botrytes). These, with males, sprout forth on the glans and on, or 
 below, the prepuce, but with women, on the parts surrounding the 
 pudenda; and the pudenda themselves, which are then swollen, are 
 covered often by a great number of them. When these are violently 
 removed, the natural, proximate effect is, that they will usually come 
 forth again, usually to be subjected again, in vain, to a similar, pain- 
 ful, cruel treatment. But even if they could be rooted out in this way, 
 it would merely have the consequence, that the figwart-disease, after 
 having been deprived of the local symptom which acts vicariously^ 
 for the internal ailment, would appear f in other and much worse 
 
 ■^Usually in gonorrhoea of this kind, the discharge is from the beginning 
 thickish, hke pus; micturition is less difficult, but the body of the penis s^volleu 
 somewhat hard; the penis is also in some cases covered on the back \^dth 
 glandular tubercles, and very painful to the touch. 
 
 t The miasm of the other common gonorrhoeas seems not to penetrate the 
 whole organism, but only to locally stimulate the urinar}^ organs. They yield 
 either to a dose of one drop of fresh parsley-juice, when this is indicated by a 
 frequent urgency to urinate, or a small dose of cannabis, of cantharides, or of 
 the copaiva balm, according to their different constitution and tlie other ail- 
 ments attending it. These should, however, be always used in the higher and 
 highest dynamizations (potencies), unless a psora, slumbering injthe body of the 
 
84 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 wa3^s, in secondary ailments; for the figwart-miasm, which rules 
 in the whole organism, has been in no way diminished, either by 
 the external destruction of the above-mentioned excrescences, or 
 by the mercur}^ which has been used internally, and which is in no 
 way appropriate to sycosis. Besides the undermining of the general 
 health by mercury, which in this disease can only do injury, and 
 which is given mostly in very large doses and in the most active 
 preparations, similar excrescences then break out in other parts of 
 the body, either whitish, spongy, sensitive, fiat elevations, in the 
 cavity of the mouth, on the tongue, the palate and the lips, or as 
 large, raised, brown and dry tubercles in the axillae, on the neck, 
 on the scalp, etc. , or there arise other ailments of the bod}^, of which 
 I shall only mention the contraction of the tendons of the flexor 
 muscles, especiall}^ of the fingers. 
 
 The gonorrhoea dependent on the figwart-miasma, as well as the 
 above-mentioned excrescences (z. e., the whole sycosis), are cured 
 most surely and most thoroughly through the internal use of Thuja,* 
 which, in this case, is Homoeopathic, in a dose of a few pillets as 
 large as poppy seeds, moistened with the dilution potentized to the 
 decillionthf degree, and when these have exhausted their action 
 after fifteen, twenty, thirty, forty days, alternating with just as small 
 a dose of nitric acid, diluted to the decillionth degree, which must be 
 allowed to act as long a time, in order to remove the gonorrhoea and 
 the excrescenses; i. e., the whole sycosis. It is not necessary to use 
 any external application, except in the most inveterate and difficult 
 cases, when the larger figwarts may be moistened every day with 
 the mild, pure juice pressed from the green leaves of Thuja, mixed 
 with an equal quantity of alcohol. 
 
 But if the patient was at the same time affected with another 
 chronic ailment, as is usual after the violent treatment of figwarts by 
 Allopathic physicians, then we often find developed psora % com- 
 
 patient, has been developed by means of a strongly affecting, irritating or weak- 
 ening treatment by Allopathic physicians. In such a case frequently secondary 
 gonorrhoeas remain, which can only be cured by an anti-psoric treatment. 
 
 * Materia Medica Pura, Part V. 
 
 t If further doses of Thuja are required, they are used most efficiently from 
 other potencies (viii., vi., iv., ii.), a change of the modification of the remedy, 
 which facilitates and strengthens its ability of affecting the vital force. 
 
 X This psora is hardly ever found in its developed state (and thus capable of 
 entering into complication with other miasmata) with young people who have 
 just been infected and seized by the figwart-disease, and who have not had to 
 pass through the usual mercurial treatment, which never runs its course without 
 the most violent assaults on the constitution; by this pernicious derangement of 
 the whole organism, the psora, even if slumbering ever so soundly, will be awak- 
 ened, if, as is often the case, it was present within. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASES. 85 
 
 plicated with sycosis, when the psora, as is often the case, was latent 
 before in the patient. At times, when a badly treated case of venereal 
 chancre disease had preceded, both these miasmata are conjoined in 
 a threefold complication with syphilis. Then it is necessary first to 
 come to the assistance of the most afflicted part, the psora, with the 
 specific anti-psoric remedies given below, and then to make use of 
 the remedies for sycosis, before the proper dose of the best prepara- 
 tion of mercury, as will be described below, is given against the 
 syphilis; the same alternating treatment may be continued, until a 
 complete cure is effected. Only, each one of these three kinds of 
 medicine must be given the proper time to complete its action. 
 
 In this reliable cure of sycosis from within, no external remedy 
 (except the juice of Thuja in inveterate bad cases) must be applied or 
 laid on the figwarts, only clean, dry lint, if they are of the moist 
 variety. 
 
SYPHILIS. 
 
 The second chronic miasma, which is more widely spread than 
 the figwart- disease, and which for three and a half [now four] cen- 
 turies has been the source of many other chronic ailments, is the 
 miasm of the venereal disease proper, the chancre- disease (syphilis). 
 This disease only causes difficulties in its cure, if it is entangled 
 (complicated) with a psora that has been already far developed — 
 with sycosis it is complicated but rarely, but then usually at the 
 same time with psora. 
 
 In the cure of the venereal disease, three states are to be dis- 
 tinguished: 
 
 1 . When syphilis is still alone and attended with its associated 
 local symptom, the chancre, or at least if this has been removed by 
 external applications, it is still associated with the other local symp- 
 tom, which in a similar manner acts vicariously for the internal dis- 
 order, the bubo.* 
 
 2. When it is alone, indeed, i. e., without any complication with 
 a second or third miasma, but has already been deprived of the 
 vicarious local symptom, the chancre (and the bubo). 
 
 3. When it is already complicated with another chronic disease, 
 /. e. , with a psora already developed, while the local symptom may 
 either be yet present, or may have been removed by local applications. 
 
 The chancre appears, after an impure coition, usually between the 
 seventh and fourteenth days, rarely sooner or later, mostly on the 
 member infected with the miasma, first as a little pustule, which 
 changes into an impure ulcer w4th raised borders and stinging pains, 
 which if not cured remains standing on the same place during man's 
 lifetime, only increasing with the years, while the secondary S3"mp- 
 toms of the venereal disease, syphilis, cannot break out as long as 
 it exists. 
 
 In order to help in such a case, the Allopathic physician destroys 
 this chancre, by means of corroding, cauterizing and desiccating sub- 
 stances, wrongly conceiving it to be a sore arising merely from 
 without through a local infection, thus holding it to be a merely 
 
 *Very rarely the impure coition is at once followed by the bubo alone 
 without any preceding chancre; usually the bubo only conies after the destruc- 
 tion of the chancre by local applications, and is a very troublesome substitute 
 for the same. 
 
88 HAHNEMAXX S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 local ulcer, such also it is declared to be in their writings. The}" 
 falsely suppose, that when it appears, no internal venereal disease 
 is as 3'et to be thought of, so that when localh' exterminating the 
 chancre, the}' suppose that the}' remove all the venereal disease 
 from the patient at once, if only he will not permit this ulcer to 
 remain too long in its place, so that the absorbent vessels do not get 
 time to transfer the poison into the internal organism, and so cause 
 by delay a general infection of the system with syphilis. They evi- 
 dently do not know, that the venereal infection of the whole body 
 commenced with the very moment of the impure coition, and was 
 already completed before the appearance of the chancre. The Allo- 
 pathic doctor destroys in his blindness, through local applications, 
 the vicarious external symptom (the chancre ulcer) , which kind 
 nature intended for the alle^-iation of the internal extensive venereal 
 general disease; and so he inexorably compels the organism to re- 
 place the destroyed first substitute of the internal venereal malady 
 (the chancre) by a far more painful substitute, the bubo, which 
 hastens onward to suppuration ; and when the Allopath, as is usually 
 the case, also drives out this bubo through his injurious treatment, 
 then nature finds itself compelled to develop the internal malady 
 through far more troublesome secondary ailments, through the out- 
 break of the whole chronic syphilis, and nature accomplishes this, 
 though slowly, (frequently not before several months have elapsed), 
 but with unfaili7ig certaijity. Instead of assisting, therefore, the 
 Allopath does injury. 
 
 John Hunter says:"^ " Xot one patient out of fifteen will escape 
 syphilis, if the chancre is destroyed by mere external applications," 
 and in another passage in his bookf he says: " The result of de- 
 stroying the chancre ever so early, and even on the first day of its 
 appearance, if this is effected by local applications, was always the 
 consequent outbreak of syphilis. ' ' 
 
 Just as emphatically Fabre declares:! ' ' Syphilis always follows on 
 the destruction of the chancre by local appHcations. He relates that 
 Petit cut off a part of the labia of a woman, who had thereon for a few 
 days a venereal chancre; the wound healed, but syphiHs, neverthe- 
 less, broke out." 
 
 How, then, could physicians, despite of all these facts and testi- 
 monies, close their eyes and ears to the truth: that the whole vener-

HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 89 
 
 eal disease (syphilis) was already developed within, before the 
 chancre could appear, and that it was a most unpardonable mistake 
 to forward the certain outbreak of the syphilis, already present 
 within, into the venereal disease, by driving away and destroying 
 the chancre by external means, and thereby destroying the fair op- 
 portunit}^ afforded of curing this disease in the easiest and most 
 convincing manner, through the internal specific remedy, while the 
 chancre was 3'et fully present! The disease is not cured except 
 when through the effect of the internal remedy alone, the chancre is 
 cured; but it is fully extinguished, as soon as through the action of 
 the internally operating medicine alone (without the addition of any 
 external remed}^) the chancre is completely cured, without leaving 
 any trace of its former presence. 
 
 I have never, in my practice of more than fifty years, seen any 
 trace of the venereal disease break out, so long as the chancre re- 
 mained untouched in its place, even if this were a space of several 
 years (for it never passes away of itself), and even when it had 
 largely increased in its place, as is natural in time with the internal 
 augmentation of the venereal disorder, which increase takes place 
 in time in every chronic miasma. 
 
 But whenever anyone is so imprudent, as to destroy this vicarious 
 local symptom, the organism is ready to cause the internal syphilis 
 to break out into the venereal disease, since the general venereal 
 disease dwells in the body from the first moment of infection. 
 
 For in the spot, into which at the impure coition the syphilitic 
 miasma had been first rubbed in and had been caught, it is, in the 
 same moment, no more local: the whole living body has already 
 received (perceived) its presence, the miasma has already become the 
 property of the whole organism. All wiping off and washing off, 
 however speedy, and with whatever fluid this be done (and as we 
 have seen, even the exsection of the part affected), is too late — is in 
 vain. There is not to be perceived, indeed, any morbid transmuta- 
 tion in that spot during the first days, but the specific venereal 
 transformation takes place in the internal of the body irresistibly, 
 from the first moment of infection until syphilis has developed itself 
 throughout the whole body, and only then (not before), nature, loaded 
 down by the internal malady, brings forth the local symptom peculiar 
 to this malady, the chancre, usually in the place first infected; and 
 this symptom is intended by nature to soothe the internal completed 
 malady. 
 
 Therefore also, the cure of the venereal disease is effected most 
 easily and in the most convincing manner, so long as the chancre 
 (the bubo) has not yet been driven out by local applications, so long 
 
90 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 as the chancre (the bubo) still remains unchanged, as a vicarious 
 symptom of the internal syphilis. In this state, and especially when 
 it is not yet complicated with psora, it may be asserted from mani- 
 fold experience and with good reason, that there is on earth no chronic 
 miasma, no chroyiic disease springing from a miasma, which is more 
 curable and more easily cw^able than this. 
 
 In this first simple state and simple cure, when the chancre (or 
 the bubo) is still present, and there is no compHcation with a de- 
 veloped psora, no prominent chronic ailment from a psoric origin 
 (usually there is none such with young, lively persons), and with 
 latent psora syphilis combines as little as sycosis — in this first state 
 it needs only one little dose of the best mercurial remedy, in order to 
 cure thoroughly and forever the whole syphilis with its chancre, 
 within fourteen days. In a few days after taking such a dose of 
 mercury, the chancre (without any external application) becomes a 
 clean sore with a little mild pus, and heals of itself— as a convincing 
 proof, that the venereal malady is also fully extinguished within; and 
 it does not leave behind the least scar, or the least spot, showing 
 any other color than the other healthy skin. But the chancre, which 
 is not treated with external application, would never heal, if the 
 internal syphilis had not been already annihilated and extinguished 
 by the dose of mercury; for so long as it exists in its place, it is the 
 natural and unmistakable proof of even the least remainder of an ex- 
 isting syphilis. 
 
 I have, indeed, in the second edition of the first part of Materia 
 Medica Pura (Dresden, 1822), described the preparation of the pure 
 semi -oxide of mercury, and I still consider this to be one of the most 
 excellent anti-syphilitic medicines; but it is difficult to prepare it in 
 sufficient purity. In order, therefore, to reach this wished for goal 
 in a still simpler manner, free from all detours, and yet just as per- 
 fectly (for in the preparation of medicines we cannot proceed in too 
 simple a manner), it is best to proceed in the way given below, so 
 that one grain of quite pure running quick-silver is triturated three 
 times, with 100 grains of sugar of milk each time, up to the millionth 
 attenuation, in three hours, and one grain of this third trituration is 
 dissolved, and then potentized through twenty-seven diluting phials 
 up to (x) the decillionth degree, as is taught at the end of this 
 volume, with respect to the dynamization of the other dry medicines. 
 
 I formerl}^ used the billionth dynamization (ii) of this preparation 
 in 1 , 2 or 3 fine pellets moistened with this dilution, as a dose, and this 
 was done successfully for such cures; although the preparation of the 
 higher potencies Tiv, vi, viii), and finally the decillionth potency (x), 
 show some advantages, in their quick, penetrating and yet mild 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 9 1 
 
 action for this purpose; but in cases where a second or third dose 
 (however seldom needed) should be found necessary, a lower potency 
 may then be taken. 
 
 Just as the continued prCvSence of the chancre (or the bubo) dur- 
 ing the cure shows the continued presence of syphilis, so when the 
 chancre (and the bubo) heal merely from the internally applied 
 mercury, without an}^ addition of a remedy used for the local symp- 
 tom, and yet this disappears without leaving any trace of its former 
 presence; it is incontrovertibly sure, that also every trace of the in- 
 ternal syphilis was extinguised at the moment of the completion of 
 the cure of the chancre or the bubo. 
 
 But just as incontrovertibly does it follow that every disappear- 
 ance of the chancre (or the bubo) owing to a mere local destruction, 
 since it w^as no real cure founded on the extirpation of the internal 
 venereal disease through the internally given appropriate mercury 
 medicine, leaves to us the certainty that the syphilis remains behind ; 
 and every one who supposes himself healed by any such merely 
 local, pretended cure, is to be considered as much venereally dis- 
 eased as he was before the destruction of the chancre. 
 
 The second state in which, as mentioned above, syphilis may have 
 to be treated, is the rare case when an otherwise healthy person, 
 affected with no other chronic disease (and thus without any de- 
 veloped psora), has experienced this injudicious driving away of the 
 chancre through local applications, effected by an ordinary physician 
 in a short time and without attacking the organism overmuch with 
 internal and external remedies. Even in such a case, — as we have 
 not as yet to combat any complication with psora — all outbreaks of 
 the secondary venereal disease may be avoided, and the man may be 
 freed from every trace of the venereal miasma through the before- 
 mentioned simple internal cure effected by a like dose of the above 
 mentioned mercurial medicine — although the certainty of his cure 
 can no more be so manifestly proved as if the chancre had still been 
 in existence during this internal cure, and as if it had become a mild 
 ulcer simply through this internal remedy, and had been thus mani- 
 festly cured of itself 
 
 But here also there may be found a sign of the non-completed as 
 well as of the completed cure of the internal syphilis which has not 
 yet broken out into the venereal disease; but this sign will only mani- 
 fest itself to an exact observer. In case the chancre has been driven 
 out through local application, even if the remedies used had not 
 been very acrid, there will alwa5's remain in the place where it 
 stood, as a sign of the unextinguished internal syphilis, a discolored, 
 reddish, red or blue scar; while on the contrary when the cure of the 
 
92 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 whole venereal disease has been effected by the internal remedy, and 
 if thus the chancre heals of itself without the action of an external 
 application, and when it disappears because it is no more needed as 
 a substitute and alleviator of an internal venereal disorder which 
 now has ceased, then the spot of the former chancre can no more be 
 recognized, for the skin covering that place will be just as smooth 
 and of the same color as the rest, so that no trace can be discerned 
 of the spot where the chancre had stood. 
 
 Now if the Homoeopathic physician has carefully taken cognizance 
 of the presence of the discolored scar remaining after the quick, 
 merely local expulsion of the venereal local symptom, as a sign of 
 the unextinguished internal syphilis, and if the person to be healed 
 is otherwise in good health, and consequently his venereal disorder is 
 not yet complicated with psora, he will also, even now, be able to free 
 him from every remainder of the venereal miasma bj^ one dose of the 
 best preparation of mercury as above described, and he will be con- 
 vinced that the cure is completed, from the fact that during the time 
 of the activit}^ of the specific remedy the scar will again assume the 
 healthy color of the other skin and all discoloration of that spot will 
 disappear. 
 
 Even when, after the expulsion of the chancre by local applica- 
 tions, the bubo has already broken out but the patient is not yet 
 seized with any other chronic disease, and consequentl}^ the internal 
 syphilis is not 3^et complicated with a developed psora (which is 
 nevertheless a rare case), the same treatment will also here, while the 
 bubo is only developing, produce a cure ; and its completion will be 
 recognized by the same signs. 
 
 In both cases, if they have been rightl}^ treated, the cure is a 
 complete one, and no outbreak of the venereal disease need anymore 
 be apprehended. 
 
 The most difficult of all these cases, the third, is still to be treated: 
 when the man at the time of the syphilitic infection was already 
 laboring under a chronic disease, so that his syphilis was complicated 
 with psora, even while the chancre yet existed, or when, even while 
 there was no chronic disease in the body at the outbreak of the 
 chancre, and the indwelHng psora could only be recognized by its 
 tokens, an allopathic physician has, nevertheless, destroyed the local 
 symptom, not only slowly and with very painful external applications, 
 but has also subjected him for a long time to an internal treatment, 
 weakening and strongly affecting him, so that the general health has 
 been undermined and the psora which had as yet been latent within 
 him has been brought to its development and has broken out into 
 chronic ailments, and these irrepressibly combine with the internal 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 93 
 
 ■syphilis, the local sj^mptom of which had been at the same time de- 
 stroyed in such an irrational manner. Psora can only be complicated 
 with the venereal disease when it has been developed and when it has 
 Tiltimated itself in a manifest chronic disease; but not when it is as 
 yet latent and slumbering. By the latter the cure of syphilis is not 
 obstructed, but whe7i complicated with developed psora ^ it is impossible 
 io cure the venereal disease alone. 
 
 Onl}' too often, I should say, do we find the syphilis which has 
 remained uncured after the nierel}^ local destruction of the chancre, 
 complicated with awakened psora, not always because the psora was 
 already developed before the venereal infection — for this is rarely the 
 case with 3-oung people — but because it is violently awakened and 
 brought to its outbreak b}^ the usual treatment of the venereal dis- 
 ease. By means of friction with mercury, large doses of calomel, 
 corrosive sublimate and similar acrid mercurial remedies, (which 
 originate fever, dysenteric abdominal ailments, chronic exhausting 
 salivation, pains in the limbs, sleeplessness, etc., without possessing 
 sufficient anti-s3-philitic power to cure the chancre-miasma mildly, 
 quickly and perfectl}',) they assault the venereal patient often for 
 many months, with the intermediate use of many weakening warm 
 baths and purgatives; so that the internal slumbering psora (w^hose 
 nature causes it to break forth in all great convulsions and in the 
 weakening of the general health) is awakened before the syphilis 
 can be cured by such an injudicious treatment, and thus becomes 
 •associated and complicated therewith. 
 
 There arises in this manner and through this combination what 
 is called a 7nasked, spurious syphilis, and in England pseudo syphilis^ 
 a monster of a double disease,* which no physician hitherto has 
 been able to cure, because no physican hitherto has been acquainted 
 with the psora in its great extent and its nature, neither in its latent 
 nor its developed state; and no one suspected this dreadful combina- 
 tion with syphilis, much less perceived it. No one, therefore, could 
 heal the developed psora, the only cause of the uncurableness of this 
 bastard syphilis, — nor could they in consequence free the syphilis 
 from this horrible combination so as to make it curable, just as the 
 psora remains incurable if the syphilis has not been extirpated. 
 
 In order to reach this so-called masked venereal disease success- 
 fully, the following rule must serve the homoeopathic physician : 
 
 ^Yea, after such a treatment it is even more than a double disease; the 
 sharp mercurial medicines, in large and frequent doses, have also added their 
 medicinal disease, which when we consider in addition the debility caused by 
 such treatment, must place the patient in a most sad state. In such a case 
 hepar sulphuris is probably to be preferred to the pure sulphur. 
 
94 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 After removing all hurtful influences that affect the patients from 
 without and after settling on a light and 3^et nourishing and strength- 
 ening diet for the patient, let him first give the anti-psoric medicine 
 which is homoeopathically the best fitting to the then prevailing state 
 of disease, as will be shown below; and when this medicine has com- 
 pleted its action, also probably a second, most suitable to the still 
 prominent psora s3'mptoms, and these should be allowed to act against 
 the psora, until the}^ have effected all that can be at present done 
 against it — then should be given the dose above described of the best 
 mercurial preparation to act against the venereal disease for three, 
 five to seven weeks; /. e., so long as it will continue to produce an 
 improvement in the venereal sj^mptoms. 
 
 In inveterate and difficult cases, however, this first course will 
 hardly accomplish all that is desired. There usually still remain 
 some ailments and disorders, which cannot be definitely classed as 
 purely psoric, and others which cannot be classed as definitely syphi- 
 litic, and these require yet some additional aid. A repetition of a 
 similar process of cure is here required; i. e., first another applica- 
 tion of one or more of the antipsoric remedies that have not yet been 
 used, and which are homoeopathically the most appropriate, until 
 whatever seems still unsyphilitically morbid — /. e. , psoric — may dis- 
 appear, when the before mentioned dose of the mercurial remedy, 
 but in another potency, should be given again and allowed to com- 
 plete its action, until the manifest venereal symptoms (the pricking, 
 painful ulcer of the tonsils, the round copper-colored spots that 
 shimmer through the epidermis, the eruptive pimples which do not 
 itch and are found chiefly in the face upon a bluish-red foundation, 
 the painless cutaneous ulcers on the scalp and the penis, which are 
 smooth, pale, clean, merely covered with mucus, and almost level with 
 the healthy skin, etc. , and the boring, nightly pains in the exostoses) 
 have entirely passed away. But since these secondary venereal 
 symptoms are so changeable that their temporary disappearance 
 gives no certainty of their complete extinction, we must also wait for 
 that more conclusive sign of the complete extirpation of the venereal 
 miasm afforded by the return of the healthy color and the entire dis- 
 appearance of the discoloration found in the scar which remains after 
 the extirpation of the chancre by local, corrosive applications. 
 
 I have, in my practice, found only two cases* of the threefold 
 
 * A master tiler from the Saxon-Brz Mountains, whose dissolute wife had 
 infected him with a venereal disease in his genitals, concerning which it was 
 not apparent from his description whether it was a chancre or a fig wart, had 
 been so maltreated by violent mercurial remedies that he had lost his uvula, 
 and his nose was so affected that the fleshy parts had mostly been eaten away, 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 95 
 
 complication of the three chronic miasms, the fig wart disease with 
 the venereal chancre miasm and at the same time a dev^oped psora, 
 and these cases were cured according to the same method ; i. e. , the 
 psora w^as treated first, then the one of the other two chronic mias- 
 mata, the symptoms of which were at the time the most prominent, 
 and then the last one. The remaining psoric symptoms had then 
 still to be combatted with suitable remedies, and then lastly what 
 there 3'et remained of sycosis or syphilis, by means of the remedies 
 given above. I w^ould also remark that the complete cure of sycosis 
 which has taken possession of the whole organism before the out- 
 break of its local symptom, is demonstrated, like that of the chancre 
 miasma, by the complete disappearance of the discoloration on the 
 spot of the skin, which discoloration remains after every merely 
 local destruction of the figwart as a sign of the unextirpated sycosis. 
 
 and the remaining part was swollen and inflamed and pierced like a honeycomb 
 with ulcers. This was attended with great pain and an intolerably fetid smell. 
 In addition he had a psoric ulcer on the leg. The anti -psoric remedies improved 
 the ulcers up to a certain degree: they healed the ulcer on the leg, they took 
 away the burning pain and most of the fetid smell of the nose; also the reme- 
 dies given to cure the sycosis caused some improvement — but as to the sum 
 total nothing further was effected until he received a small dose of protoxide of 
 mercury, after which everything was fully healed and he was restored to full 
 health, excepting the irreparable loss of his nose. 
 
PSORA. 
 
 I think it necessary before proceeding to the doctrine of the third 
 chronic miasma, the most important of all, psora, to premise the fol- 
 lowing general remark: 
 
 For the infection with the only three known chronic miasmatic 
 diseases there is usuallj^ needed but one moment; but the develop- 
 ment of this tinder of infection, so that it becomes a general disease of 
 the entire organism, needs a longer time. Not until a certain num- 
 ber of days have elapsed, when the miasmatic disease has received 
 its complete internal development in the whole man — not until then, 
 from the fulness of internal suffering, the local symptom breaks forth, 
 destined by a kind nature to take upon itself in a certain sense the 
 internal disease, and in so far to divert it in a palliative manner and 
 to soothe it, so that it ma^^ not be able to injure and endanger the 
 vital economy too much. The local symptom has its place on the 
 least dangerous part of the body, the external skin, and, indeed, on 
 that part of the skin where, during the infection, the miasma had 
 touched the nearest nerves. 
 
 This process of nature, which repeats itself continually and ever- 
 more in the same manner in chronic miasmata, aye, — even in those 
 which are acute and constant, — ought not to have escaped the pene- 
 tration of physicians, at least not in venereal diseases, to the treat- 
 ment of which they have applied themselves now for more than 
 three hundred years; and then they could not have avoided drawing 
 a conclusion as to the process of nature in the other two chronic 
 miasmata. It was, therefore, irrational and unpardonably thought- 
 less of them to suppose that every chancre evolved b}^ the organism 
 after several da3^s, often after quite a number of days, as the result 
 of the completed internal malady, was a thing mereh' adventitious 
 from without and situated on the skin without any internal connec- 
 tion, so that it might be simpl}^ removed by cauterizing, ' ' so 
 as to prevent the poison from the chancre {sa'/ird) from being 
 absorbed into the internal parts, and thus from causing man to be 
 afflicted with the venereal disease. ' ' Irrational and unpardonably 
 thoughtless was this false idea of the origin of the venereal chancre, 
 which caused the injurious practice of the external cauterization of 
 8 
 
98 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 the chancre, producing as its unavoidable, shameful effect, the 
 breaking out of the venereal disease from the internal which 
 has continued in its diseased state. This has been the case in 
 several hundred thousands of cases these last three centuries. Just 
 as irrational and thoughtless is the notion of physicians of the old 
 school, even of the most modern times, that itch is merely a disease 
 of the skm, in which the internal portion of the body takes no part. 
 According to this groundless supposition, therefore, nothing better 
 can be done than to remove this ailment from the surface of the 
 skin, although the extirpation of the internal psora disease which 
 causes the cutaneous eruption is necessary as an .aid, and when this 
 is cured also the cutaneous ailment, being the necessary consequence 
 of the internal disease, will naturally disappear — ce^sante causa, cessat 
 effectus. 
 
 For in its complete state, /. e., so long as the original eruption 
 is still present on the skin so as to assuage the internal malady, the 
 entire disease of the psora may be cured most easily, quickly and 
 surel}^ 
 
 But when by the destruction of this original cutaneous eruption, 
 which acts vicarioush^ for the internal malady, it has been robbed 
 then the psora is put in the unnatural position of dominating in a 
 merely one-sided manner the internal finer parts of the whole organ- 
 ism, and thus of being compelled to develop its secondary symptoms. 
 
 How important and necessarj^ the cutaneous eruption is for the 
 original psora, and how carefully in the only thorough cure of itch, 
 that is, the internal cure, eveiy external removal of the eruption 
 must be avoided, we may see from the fact that the most severe 
 chronic ailments have followed as secondary symptoms of the inter- 
 nal psora after the original itch-eruption has been driven out, and 
 that when, in consequence of a great revolution in the organism, this 
 itching eruption re appears on the skin, the secondary symptoms are 
 so suddenly removed, that these grievous ailments, often of many 
 years' standing, are wont to disappear, at least temporarily, as if by 
 a miracle. See the before quoted observations of older physicians, 
 Nos. I, 3, 5, 6, 8, (9), i6, (17), (21), 23, 33, 35, 39, 41, 54, 58, 60, 
 72, 81, 87, 89, 94. 
 
 But let no one suppose that an internal psora, which, after the 
 external destruction of the original cutaneous eruption, has broken 
 out into secondary chronic ailments, can, through the re-appearance 
 of such an itch-Hke eruption on the skin, come into just as normal 
 a state as before, or that it can be cured just as easily as if it were 
 still the original eruption and as if this had not been as yet removed. 
 
 This is not at all the case. Even the eruption following immedi- 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 99 
 
 atel}^ after the infection has no such unchanging constancy and per- 
 tinacity on the skin as the chancre and the figwarts show on the 
 spots where they first appear,* but not infrequently disappears from 
 the skin also from other causes f than from artificial remedies used 
 purposely for its destruction, and so also from other causes unknown.}; 
 
 So that the physician must not waste any time even in the original 
 eruption, if he would complete the cure while the itch- disease is still 
 entire, by the use of internal anti-psoric remedies. Such a respite 
 can be expected still less in this secondary eruption, which has been 
 brought out on the skin by any cause after the local extirpation of 
 the eruption ; for the second eruption is wont to be far more incon- 
 stant and changeable, so that it often passes away on much slighter 
 provocation in a few days — a proof that it lacks much of the com- 
 plete quality of the primitive itch-eruption, so that the physician 
 cannot count on it in the thorough cure of the psora. 
 
 This pr oneness to change, in the itch-like eruption which has 
 been called a second time to the skin, seems evidently to be caused 
 by the fact that the internal psora, after the destruction of the original 
 itch-eruption is unable to give to the secondary eruption the full, 
 qualities belonging to the primary eruption, and is already much 
 more inclined to unfold itself in a variety of other chronic diseases; 
 wherefore a thorough cure is now much more difficult, and is simply 
 to be conducted as if directed against the internal psora. 
 
 The cure is not, therefore, advanced by producing such a second- 
 ary eruption through internal remedies, as has sometimes been effec- 
 tually attempted (see Nos. 3, 9, 59, 89); or by its re-appearance 
 through other unknown causes (see Nos. i, 5, 6, 8, 16, 23, 28, 29, 
 33, 35, 39, 41, 54, 58, 60, 72, 80, 81, 87, 89, 94) or, especially, 
 through the help of a fever (see No. 64, also 55, 56, 74). Such a 
 secondary eruption is always very transitory, and so unreliable and 
 rare that we cannot build our hope of cure on it, nor expect from it 
 the advancement of any thorough cure. 
 
 But even if, by any means, such a secondary eruption might, 
 after a fashion, be produced, and even were it in our power to retain 
 
 ^ Neither of these ever passes away of itself, unless destroyed externally on 
 purpose, or the entire disease is healed internally.

 it on the skin for a longer period, we cannot at all count on it for an 
 assistance in the cure of the whole psoric malady. "^ 
 
 It remains, therefore, an established truth, that the cure of the 
 entire destructive Psora through antipsoric remedies is effected most 
 easily only while the original eruption of itch is still present. From 
 this it again appears how unconscionable it is of the allopathic phy- 
 sicians, to destroy the primitive itch eruption through local applica- 
 tions instead of completely eradicating this grave disease from the 
 whole living organism by a cure from within, which at that stage is 
 
 * There was a time when, not yet fully convinced of this fact, I thought that 
 the cure of the entire psora might be rendered easier by an artificial renewal of 
 the cutaneous eruption effected through a sort of checking of the perspi- 
 ratory function of the skin, so as to excite it homoeopathically to the reproduc- 
 tion of the eruption. For this purpose I found most ser\dceable the wearing of 
 a plaster mostly on the back (but where practicable also on other portions of 
 the skin); the plaster was prepared hy gently heating six ounces of Burgundy 
 pitch, into which, after removing it from the fire, an ounce of turpentine pro- 
 duced from the larch-tree (called Venetian turpentine) was stirred until it was 
 perfectly mixed. A portion of this was spread on a chamois skin (as being the 
 softest), and laid on while still warm. Instead of this, there might also be 
 used so-called tree-wax ( made of yellow wax and common turpentine ) , or also 
 taflfeta covered with elastic resin ; showing that the itching eruption evolved 
 is not due to any irritation caused by the substance applied ; nor does the 
 plaster first mentioned cause either eruption or itching on the skin of a person 
 who is not psoric. I discovered that this method is the most effective to cause 
 such an activity of the skin. Yet despite of all the patience of the sick persons 
 (no matter how much they might internally be affected with the psora), I never 
 could evolve a complete eruption of itch, least of all one that v/ould remain for 
 a time on the skin. What could be effected was only that some itching pustules 
 appeared, which soon vanished again, when the plaster was left off. More 
 frequently there ensued a moist soreness of the skin, or at best a more or less 
 violent itching of the skin, which in rare cases extended also to the other parts 
 not covered by the plaster. This, indeed, would cause for a time a striking 
 alleviation of even the most severe chronic diseases flowing from a psoric 
 source; e. g., suppuration of the lungs. But this much could not be attained 
 on the skin of many patients ( frequently all that could be attained was a mod- 
 erate or small amount of itching), or again, if I could produce a violent itching, 
 this frequently became too unbearable for the patient to sustain it for a time 
 sufficient to produce an internal cure. When the plaster then was removed in 
 order to relieve him, even the most violent itching, together with the eruption 
 present, disappeared very soon, and the cure had not been essentially advanced 
 by it ; this confirms the observation made above, that the eruption if evolved a 
 second time (and so also the itching reproduced) had not by any means the full 
 characteristics of the eruption of the itch which had originally been repressed, 
 and was therefore of little assistance in the real advancement of a thorough 
 cure of the psora through internal remedies, while the little aid afforded loses 
 all value owing to the often unbearable infliction of the artificially produced 
 eruption and itching of the skin, and the weakening of the whole body which 
 is inseparable from the titillating pain. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASKS. lOI 
 
 as yet very easy, and by thus choking off in advance all the wretched 
 consequences that we must expect from this malady if uncured; i. e., 
 all the secondary, chronic, nameless sufferings which follow it. 
 
 The excuse of the private physician (for the physician at the 
 hospital has no excuse at all) amounts to nothing. He will say, in- 
 deed: "If it is not known — and hardly ever does it become demon- 
 strably known — where, when, at what occasion and from what person 
 avowedly suffering from itch the infection has been derived, then he 
 could not discover from the present, and often insignificant little erup- 
 tion whether it was real itch; so he w^as not to be blamed for the evil 
 consequences, if he supposed it to be something else and endeavored 
 to remove it from the skin as soon as possible by a lotion of lead 
 solution, or an ointment of cadmia, or white percipitate of mercury, 
 according to the wishes of the aristocratic parents. ' ' 
 
 This excuse, as above said, amounts to nothing. For, Jirst of all, 
 no cutaneous eruption of whatever kind it may be, ought to be ex- 
 pelled through external means by any physician who wishes to act con- 
 scientiously and rationally.* The human skin does not evolve of 
 itself, without the co-operation of the rest of the living whole, an}^ 
 eruption, nor does it become sick in any way, without being induced 
 and compelled to it by the general diseased state, by the lack of 
 normality in the whole organism. In every case there is at the bot- 
 tom a disorderly state of the whole internal living organism, which 
 state must first be considered; and therefore the eruption is only to 
 be removed by internal healing and curative remedies which change 
 the state of the whole; then also the eruption which is based on the 
 internal disease will be cured and healed of itself, without the help 
 of any external remedy, and frequently more quickly than it could 
 be done by external remedies. 
 
 Seco?idly, even if the physician should not have presented to him 
 the original, undestroyed form of the eruption, — i. e., the pustule of 
 itch which in the beginning is transparent, then quickl}- filled with 
 pus, with a narrow red margin all around it, — even if the eruption 
 should consist only of small granules like the miliar}- eruption, or 
 appear like scattered little pimples or little scabs, still he cannot for 
 a moment be in doubt as to whether the eruption is itch, if the child 
 or even the suckling only a few days old, uninterruptedly rubs and 
 scratches the spot, or, if it is an adult, when he complains oi the 
 titillation of a voluptuousl}" itching eruption (or e\-en ouh' a tew 
 pimples) which is unbearable without scratching, especially in the 
 evening and at night, and when this is followed by a burning pain. 
 In such a case we can never doubt as to the infection with itch, 
 
 ■^"See " Organon of the Healing Art." fifth edition, ^ 187-203. 
 
I02 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 though in genteel and wealthy families we can seldom secure the in- 
 formation and the certaint}^ as to how, where and from whom the 
 infection has been derived; for there are innumerable imperceptible 
 occasions whereby this infection may be received, as taught above. 
 
 Now when the family physician notices this in time, then with- 
 out any external application, the simple dose of one or two pills as 
 large as poppy-seeds, moistened with the potentized sulphur in alco- 
 hol, as described below, will fully and abundantly suf&ce to cure a 
 child and to deliver it from the entire disease of itch, both the erup- 
 tion and the internal itch malady (psora). 
 
 The homoeopathic physician in his private practice seldom gets 
 to see and to treat an eruption of itch spread over a considerable part 
 of the skin and coming from a fresh infection. The patients on 
 account of the intolerable itching either apply to some old woman, 
 or to the druggist or the barber, who, one and all, come to their aid 
 with a remedy which, as they suppose, is immediately effective (e. g. , 
 lard mixed with flowers of sulphur). Only in the practice of the 
 barracks, of prisons, hospitals, penitentiaries and orphan asylums 
 those infected have to apply to the resident physician, if the surgeon 
 of the house does not anticipate him. 
 
 Even in the most ancient times when itch occurred, for it did 
 not everywhere degenerate into leprosy, it was acknowledged that 
 there was a sort of specific virtue against itch in sulphur; but they 
 knew of no other way of appl3dng it, but to destroy the itch through 
 an external application of it, even as is done now by the greater part 
 of the modern physicians of the old school. A. C. Celsus has several 
 ointments and salves (V. 28) some of which consist merely of sul- 
 phur mixed with tar, while others contain also compounds of copper 
 and other substances; these he prescribes for the expulsion of itch, 
 and this he supposes to be its cure. So also the most ancient phy- 
 sicians, like the moderns, prescribed for their itch patients baths of 
 warm sulphurous mineral water. Such patients are usuall}^ also 
 delivered from their eruption by these external sulphur remedies. 
 But that their patients were not really cured thereby, became mani- 
 fest, even to them, from the more severe ailments that followed, such 
 as general drops}^ with which an Athenian was af&icted when he 
 drove out his severe eruption of itch b}^ bathing in the warm sulphur 
 baths of the island of Melos (now called Milo), and of which he died. 
 This is recorded b}^ the author of Book V. Epidemion, which has 
 been received among the writings of Hippocrates (some three hun- 
 dred years before Celsus). 
 
 Internally the ancient physicians gave no sulphur in itch, because 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. IO3 
 
 they, like the moderns, did not see that this miasmatic disease was, 
 at the same time and especially, an internal disease. 
 
 Modern physicians have never given sulphur 07ily, and internally, 
 to cure the itch, because they have never recognized the itch-disease as 
 being also an internal and, indeed, chiefly internal disease. They 
 only gave it in connection with the external means of driving 
 away the itch, and, indeed, in doses which would act as purgatives, — 
 ten, twent}^ and thirty grains at a dose, frequently repeated, — so that it 
 never became manifest how useful or how injurious this internal 
 application of such large doses, in connection with the external applica- 
 tion, had been; at least the whole itch-disease (psora) could never be 
 thoroughl}^ healed thereby. The external driving out of the erup- 
 tion was simply advanced by it as by any other purgative, and with 
 the same injurious effects as if no sulphur at all had been used 
 internally. For even if sulphur is used only internally, but in the 
 above described large doses, without any external destructive means, 
 it can never thoroughly heal a psora; partly because in order to 
 cure as an antipsoric and homoeopathic medicine, it must be given 
 only in the smallest doses of a potentized preparation, while in 
 larger and more frequent doses the crude sulphur* in some cases 
 increases the malady or at least adds a new malady; partly because 
 the vital force expels it as a violently aggressive remedy through 
 purging stools or by means of vomiting, without having put its 
 healing power to any use. 
 
 Now if, as experience teaches, not even the fresh itch-disease which

 is the most easy to cure of all, i. e., the internal, recently formed psora 
 together with the external, recent eruption, can be thoroughly healed 
 by external applications accompanied with large quantities of flowers 
 of sulphur, it may easil}^ be seen, that the psora, after it has been 
 deprived of its eruption and has become merely internal and invet- 
 erate, having developed secondary ailments and thus having changed 
 into chronic diseases of various kinds, for the same reason can be 
 just as little cured b}' a quantity of sulphur flowers, or by a number 
 of baths in sulphurous mineral waters, or on the other hand by 
 simultaneousl}^ drinking the same or a similar water; in a word, it 
 cannot be cured by a superabundance and frequent repetition of this 
 remedy, although it is of itself antipsoric."^ It is true that many 
 such chronic patients by the first treatment at the baths seem to get 
 rid for some time of the symptoms of their disease (therefore we see 
 an incredible throng of many thousands, suffering from innumerable 
 different chronic ailments at Teplitz, Baden, Aix-la-Chapelle, Neun- 
 dorf, Warmbrunn, etc.); yet they are not on that account restored to 
 health, but instead of the original chronic (psoric) disease, they 
 have for a time come under the dominion of a sulphur-disease 
 (another, perhaps more bearable, malady). This in time passes 
 away, when the psora again lifts its head, either wdth the same 
 morbid symptoms as before, or with others similar but gradualh^ 
 more troublesome than the first, or with symptoms developing in 
 nobler parts of the organism. Ignorant persons wdll rejoice in the 
 latter case, that their former disease at least has passed away, and 
 they hope that the new disease also may be removed by another 
 journey to the same baths. They do not know, that their changed 
 morbid state is merely a transformation of the same psora; but they 
 always find out by experience, that their second tour to the baths 
 causes even less alleviation, or, indeed, if the sulphur-baths are used 
 in still greater number, that the second trial causes aggravation. 
 
 Thus we see that either the excessive use of sulphur in all its 
 forms, or the frequent repetition of its use by allopathic physicians 
 in the treatment of a multitude of chronic diseases (the secondary 
 psoric ailments) have taken away from it all value and use; and we 
 
 * Used in small doses, sulphur as one of the antipsoric remedies will not 
 fail to make a brief beginning of a cure of the chronic ( non- venereal and there- 
 fore psoric) diseases. I know a physician in Saxony who gained a great repu- 
 tation by merely adding to his prescriptions in nearly all chronic diseases 
 flowers of sulphur, and this without knowing a reason for it. This in the 
 beginning of such treatments is wont to produce a strikingly beneficent effect, 
 but of course only in the beginning, and therefore after that his help was at an 
 end. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISKASKS. I05 
 
 ma}^ well assert that, to this day, hardly anything but injury has 
 been done by allopathic physicians through the use of sulphur. 
 
 But even supposing that anyone should desire to make the only 
 correct use of sulphur in this kind of disease, it will seldom be possi- 
 ble to do this wdth the same desired success as where the homoeopathic 
 physician finds a recent case of the itch-disease with its still existing 
 eruption. Even when, owing to its undeniable anti-psoric effects, sul- 
 phur may be able of itself to make the beginning of a cure, after the 
 external expulsion of the eruption, either with the still hidden and 
 latent psora or when this has more or less developed and broken out 
 into its varied chronic diseases, it can nevertheless be but rarely 
 made use of for this purpose, because its powers have usually been 
 already exhausted, because it has been given to the patient already 
 before by allopathic physicians for one purpose or another, perhaps 
 has been given already repeatedly ; but sulphur, like most of the 
 antipsoric remedies in the treatment of a developed psora that has 
 become chronic, can hardly be used three or four times (even after 
 the intervening use of other antipsoric remedies) without causing 
 the cure to retrograde. 
 
 The cure of an old pso7'a that has been deprived of its eruption ^ 
 whether it ?nay be latent and quiescent, or already broke?! out into 
 chro?iic diseases, ca7i never be accomplished with sulphur alo?ie, nor with 
 sulphur-baths either natural or artificial. 
 
 Here I may mention the curious circumstance that in general — 
 with the exception of the recent itch-disease still attended with its 
 unrepressed cutaneous eruption, and which is so easily cured from 
 within* — every other psoric diathesis, /. e., the psora that is still 
 latent within, as well as the psora that has developed into one of the 
 innumerable chronic diseases springing from it, is very seldom cured 
 by any single anti-psoric remedy, but requires the use of several of 
 these remedies — in the worst cases the use of quite a number of 
 them — one after the other, for its perfect cure. 
 
 This circumstance need not astonish us when we consider that 
 the psora is a chronic miasma of quite peculiar and especial character 
 which in several thousands of years has passed through several 
 millions of human organisms, and must have assumed such a vast 
 extension of varied symptoms, — the elements of those innumerable. 
 
 ^Recent itch-disease with its still present cutaneous eruption has been cured 
 at times without au}'^ external remedy by even one very small dose of a properly 
 potentized preparation of sulphur and thus within two, three or four weeks ; 
 once a dose of >< grain of carbo vegetabilis potentized a million fold sulTiced for 
 a family of seven persons, and three times a like dose of as highly poienli/ed 
 sepia was sufficient.

 chronic, non- venereal ailments, under which mankind now groans, — 
 and could transmute itself into such an indefinite multitude of forms 
 differing from one another as it gradually ultimated itself in the 
 various bodily constitutions of individual men who differed from one 
 another in their domiciles, their climatic peculiarities, their educa- 
 tion, habits, occupations,^^ modes of life and of diet, and was moulded 
 by varying bodily and psychic relations. It is, therefore, not strange, 
 that one single and only medicine is insufficient to heal the entire 
 psora and all its forms, and that it requires several medicines in order 
 to respond, by the artificial morbid effects peculiar to each, to the 
 unnumbered host of psora symptoms, and thus to those of all chronic 
 (non-venereal i diseases, and to the entire psora, and to do this in a 
 curative homoeopathic manner, f 
 
 It is only, therefore, as already mentioned, when the eruption of 
 itch is still in its prime and the infection is in consequence still recent, 
 that the complete cure can be effected by sulphur alone, and then at 
 times with but a single dose. I leave it undecided, whether this 
 can be done in every case of itch still in full eruption on the skin, 
 because the ages of the eruption of itch infecting patients is quite 
 various. For if the eruption has been on the skin for some time 
 (although it may not have been treated, with external repressive 
 remedies) it will of itself begin to recede gradually from the skin. 
 Then the internal psora has already in part gained the upper hand; 
 the cutaneous eruption is then no more so completely vicarious, 
 and ailments of another kind appear, partly as the signs of a 
 latent psora, partly as chronic diseases developed from the internal 
 psora. In such a case sulphur alone (as little as any other single 
 antipsoric remedy) is usually no longer sufficient to produce a com- 
 plete cure, and the other antipsoric remedies, one or another accord- 
 ing to the remaining symptoms, must be called upon to give their 
 homoeopathic aid. 
 
 The homoeopathic medical treatment of the countless chronic 
 diseases (non- venereal and therefore of psoric origin) agrees essentially 
 in its general features with the homoeopathic treatment of human 
 diseases as taught in the Organoyi of the Art of Healing; I shall 
 
 * /. (?. , occupations which called more fully into play one or another organ 
 of the bod}', one or another function of the spirit and mind. 
 
 1 1 refrain from hinting through what exertions and through how many 
 careful observations, investigations, reflections and varied experiments I have 
 finally succeeded after eleven years in filling up the great chasm in the edifice 
 of the homoeopathic healing art, the cure of the innumerable chronic diseases, 
 and thus in completing as far as possible the blessings which this art has in store 
 for suffering humanity. 
 
hahnkmann's chronic diskases. 107 
 
 now indicate what is especially to be considered in the treatment of 
 chronic diseases. 
 
 As to the diet and mode of liviiig of patients of this kind I shall 
 onl}^ make some general remarks, leaving the special application in 
 any particular case to the judgment of the homoeopathic practitioner. 
 Of course everything that would hinder the cure must also in these 
 cases be removed. But since we have here to treat lingering, some- 
 times very tedious diseases which cannot be quickly removed, and 
 since w^e often have cases of persons in middle life and also in old 
 age, in various relations of life which can seldom be totally changed, 
 either in the case of rich people or in the case of persons of small 
 means, or even with the poor, therefore limitations and modifica- 
 tions of the strict mode of life as regularly prescribed by Homoeopathy 
 must be allowed, in order to make possible the cure of such tedious 
 diseases with individuals so very different. A strict, homoeopathic 
 diet and mode of living does not cure chronic patients as our oppo- 
 nents pretend in order to diminish the merits of Homoeopathy, but 
 the main cause is the medical treatment. This may be seen in the 
 case of the many patients who trusting these false allegations have 
 for years observed the most strict homoeopathic diet without being 
 able thereby to diminish appreciably their chronic disease; this rather 
 increasing in spite of the diet, as all diseases of a chronic miasmatic 
 nature do from their nature. 
 
 Owing to these causes, therefore, and in order to make the cure 
 possible, the homoeopathic practitioner must yield to circumstances 
 in his prescriptions as to diet and mode of living, and in so doing he 
 will much more surely, and therefore more completely, reach the aim 
 of healing, than by an obstinate insistence on strict rules which in 
 many cases cannot be obeyed. 
 
 The daily laborer, if his strength allows, should continue his 
 labor; the artisan his handiwork; the farmer, so far as he is able, his 
 field work; the mother of the family her domestic occupations accord- 
 ing to her strength; only labors that would interfere with the health 
 of healthy persons should be interdicted. This must be left to the 
 intelligence of the rational physician. 
 
 The class of men who are usually occupied, not with bodily labor, 
 but with fine work in their rooms, usually with sedentar}^ work, 
 should be directed during their cure to walk more in the open air, 
 without, on that account, setting their work altogether aside. 
 
 Persons belonging to the higher classes should also be urged to 
 take walks more than is their custom. The physician may allow 
 this class the innocent amusement of moderate and becoming danc- 
 ing, amusements in the country that are reconcilable with a strict 
 
I08 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 diet, also social meetings with acquaintances, where conversation is 
 the chief amusement ; he will not keep them from enjo^'ing harmless 
 music or from listening to lectures which are not too fatiguing ; he 
 can permit the theatre onl}^ exceptionally, but he can never allow 
 the plajang of cards. The phj^sician will moderate too frequent 
 riding and driving, and should know how to banish intercourse 
 which should prove to be moralh' and ps3'chicalh^ injurious, as this 
 is also physically injurious. The flirtations and empt}" excitations 
 of sensuality between the sexes, the reading of indelicate novels and 
 poems of a like character, as well as superstitious and enthusiastic 
 books, are to be altogether interdicted.^ 
 
 Scholars ought also to be induced to (moderately) exercise in the 
 open air, and in bad weather to do some light mechanical work in 
 doors; but during the medical treatment mental occupation should 
 be limited to work from memor}^, since straining the head by read- 
 ing is hardh" ever to be allowed, or at least onh' with great limita- 
 tion and a strict definition as to the quantity- and qualitj' of what is 
 read, i. e., in treating any of the more severe chronic diseases. In 
 mental disorders it can never be allowed. 
 
 All classes of chronic patients must be forbidden the use of any 
 domestic remedies or the use of an}- medicines on their own account. 
 With the higher classes, perfumeries, scented waters, tooth-powders 
 and other medicines for the teeth must also be forbidden. If the 
 patient has been accustomed for a long time to woolen under-cloth- 
 ing, the homoeopathic physician cannot suddenly make a change; 
 but as the disease diminishes the woollen under-garments may in 
 warm weather be first changed to cotton and then, in warm w^eather, 
 the patient can pass to linen. Fontanels can be stopped, in chronic 
 diseases of any moment, only when the internal cure has already 
 made progress, especially Tv4th patients of advanced age. 
 
 The physician cannot 3aeld to the request of patients for the con- 
 tinuation of their customary home-baths; but a quick ablution, as 
 
 * Physicians frequently ^\nsh to assume importance by forbidding without 
 exception all sexual intercourse to chronic patients who are married. But if 
 both parties are able and disposed to it, such an interdict is, to say the least, 
 ridiculous, as it neither can nor wall be obeyed (without causing a greater mis- 
 fortune in the family). No legislature should give laws that cannot be kept 
 nor controlled, or which would cause even greater mischief if kept. If one 
 party is incapable of sexual intercourse this of itself will stop such intercourse. 
 But of all functions in marriage such intercourse is what may least be com- 
 manded or forbidden. Homoeopathy only interferes in this matter through 
 medicines, so as to make the party that is incapable of sexual intercourse cap- 
 able of it, through antipsoric (or anti-syphilitic) remedies, or on the other 
 hand to reduce an excitable consort's morbidity to its natural tone.

 much as cleanliness may demand from time to time, may be allowed; 
 nor can he permit an}^ venesection or cupping, however much the 
 patient may declare that he has become accustomed thereto. 
 
 As to diet, all classes of men who wish to be cured of a lingering 
 disease, can suffer some limitation, if the chronic disease does not 
 consist of an ailment of the abdomen; with the lower classes there 
 need to be no very strict limitations, especially if the patient is able 
 to remain at work in his trade, thus giving motion to the body. 
 The poor man can recover health CA^en wnth a diet of vSalt and bread, 
 and neither the moderate use of potatoes, flour-porridge nor fresh 
 cheese will hinder his recovery ; onl)^ let him limit the condiments 
 of onions and pepper with his meagre diet. 
 
 He who cares for his recovery can find dishes, even at the king's 
 table, which answer all the requirements of a natural diet. 
 
 Most difficult for a homoeopathic physician is the decision as to 
 drinks. Coffee has in great part the injurious effects on the health 
 of bod}" and soul which I have described in my little book ( Wirkun- 
 gen des Kaffecs [Effects of Coffee] , I^eipzig, 1803) ; but it has become 
 so much of a habit and a necessity to the greater part of the so-called 
 enlightened nations that it will be as difficult to extirpate as prejudice 
 and superstition, unless the homoeopathic physician in the cure of 
 chronic diseases insists on a general, absolute interdict. Only young 
 people up to the twentieth year, or at most up to the thirtieth, can 
 be suddenly deprived of it without any particular disadvantage; but 
 with persons over thirty and forty years, if they have used coffee 
 from their childhood, it is better to propose to discontinue it gradu- 
 ally and every day to drink somewhat less; when lo and behold! 
 most of them leave it off at once, and they will do so without am^ 
 peculiar trouble (except, perhaps, for a few days at the commence- 
 ment). As late as six years ago I still supposed that older persons 
 who are unwilling to do without it, might be allowed to use it in a 
 small quantity. But I have since then become convinced that even 
 a long-continued habit cannot make it harmless, and as the physician 
 can only permit what is best for his patient, it must remain as an 
 established rule that chronic patients must altogether give up this 
 part of their diet, which is insidiously injurious; and this the 
 patients, high or low, who have the proper confidence in their phy- 
 sician, when it is properly represented to them, almost without 
 exception, do willingly and gladh^, to the great improvement of their 
 health. Rye or wheat, roasted like coffee in a drum and then boiled 
 and prepared like coffee, has both in smell and in taste much resem- 
 blance to coffee; and rich and poor are using this substitute willingly 
 in several countries. 
 
I TO HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 The like ma3^ be said concerning the expensive and so-called fine 
 sorts, as well as concerning the cheap sorts of Chinese, tea which 
 so flatteringly allures the nerves and so secretly and inevitably 
 infests and weakens them. Even when made very weak and when 
 only a little is drank only once a daj^ it is never harmless, neither 
 with younger persons nor with older ones who have used it since 
 their childhood; and they must instead of it use some harmless 
 warm drink. Patients, according to my extensive experience, are 
 also willing to follow the advice of their faithful adviser, the physi- 
 cian in whom they have confidence, when this advice is fortified with 
 reasons. 
 
 With respect to the limitation in wine the practitioner can be 
 far more lenient, since with chronic patients it will be hardly ever 
 necessary to altogether forbid it. Patients who from their youth up 
 have been accustomed to a plentiful use of pure * wine cannot give 
 it up at once or entirely, and this the less the older they are. To do 
 so would produce a sudden sinking of their strength and an obstruc- 
 tion to their cure, and might even endanger their life. But they will 
 be satisfied to drink it during the first weeks mixed with equal parts 
 of water, and later, gradualh^ wine mixed with two, three and four 
 and finally with five and six parts of water and a little sugar. The 
 latter mixtures may be allowed all chronic patients as their usual 
 beverage. 
 
 More absolutely necessary in the cure of the chronic diseases is 
 the giving up of whisky or brandy. This will require, however, as 
 much consideration in diminishing the quantity used, as firmness in 
 executing it. Where the strength appreciably diminishes at giving 
 it up totally, a small portion of good, pure wine must be used instead 
 of it for a little while, but later, wine mixed with several parts of 
 water, according to circumstances. 
 
 Since, according to an inviolable law of nature, our vital force 
 always produces in the human organism the opposite of the impres- 
 sions caused by physical and medicinal potencies in all the cases in 
 which there are such opposites, it may easily be understood, as 
 accurate observ-ation also testifies, that spirituous liquors, after hav- 
 ing simulated refreshment and heightened vital warmth immediately 
 after partaking them, must have just the opposite after-effects, owing 
 to this opposite reaction of the vital force of the organism. Weakness 
 
 ^ Even for men in quite good health it is improper and in many ways injuri- 
 ous to drink pure wine as a customarj^ beverage, and morality only permits 
 its use in small quantities at festive occasions. A youth cannot keep his sexual 
 desires under control up to his marriage unless he altogether avoids banquets. 
 Gonorrhoea and chancre are due to such excesses. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. Ill 
 
 and a diminution of the vital warmth are the inevitable consequences 
 of their use — states which ought to be removed as far as possible 
 from the chronic patient by every true physician. Only an allopath 
 who has never accustomed himself to observation and to reflection, 
 and who is unwilling to acknowledge the injurious effects of his pal- 
 liatives, can advise his chronic patients to dailj- drink strong, pure 
 wine to strengthen themselves ; a genuine Homoeopath will never do 
 this {^sed ex ungiie leoneni /). 
 
 The permission of beer is quite questionable ! Since the artifices 
 of brewers in modern times seem to intend, by their addition of vege- 
 table substances to the extract of malt, not only to prevent it from 
 souring, but also and especially to tickle the palate and to cause 
 intoxication, without any regard to the injurious qualities of these 
 malignant additions which often deeply undermine the health when 
 daily used, and which cannot be discovered by any inspection, the 
 honest physician cannot allow his patient to drink whatsoever is 
 called beer; for even in the white beer (thin beer) and the porter, 
 which on account of their lack of bitterness seem so harmless, not in- 
 frequently have narcotic ingredients added to give them the much- 
 liked intoxicating quality in spite of their diminished quantity of 
 malt. 
 
 Among the articles of diet which are generally injurious to 
 chronic patients are also all dishes containing vinegar or citric acid. 
 These are especially apt to cause disagreeable sensations and troubles 
 in those af&icted with nervous and abdominal ailments. They also 
 either antagonize or excessively increase the effects of several medi- 
 cines. For such patients also very acid fruit (as sour cherries, 
 unripe gooseberries and currants) are to be allowed only in ver}' 
 small quantities, and sweet fruits only in moderate quantity; so also 
 baked prunes as a palliative are not to be advised to those inclined 
 to constipation. To the latter, as also to those suffering from weak 
 digestion, veal which is too young is not serviceable. Those whose 
 sexual powers are low should limit themselves in eating young 
 chickens and eggs, and should avoid the irritating spice of vanilla, 
 also truffles and caviare, which as palliatives hinder a cure. Ladies 
 with scanty menses must avoid the use of saffron and cinnamon for 
 the same reason; persons with weak stomachs should avoid cinna- 
 mon, cloves, amomum, pepper, ginger and bitter substances, which, 
 being palliatives, are also injurious while under homoeopathic treat- 
 ment. Vegetables causing flatulency should be forbidden in all 
 abdominal troubles and where there is an inclination to constipation 
 and costiveness. Beef and good wheat-bread or rye-bread, together 
 with cow's milk and a moderate use of fresh butter, seem to be the 
 
112 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 most natural and harmless food for men, and also for chronic patients; 
 onl}^ little salt should be used. Next to beef in wholesomeness are 
 mutton, venison, grown chickens and young pigeons. The flesh 
 and fat of geese and ducks are even less to be permitted to chronic 
 patients than pork. Pickled and smoked meats should be rarely 
 used and onl}^ in small quantities. 
 
 Sprinkling chopped raw herbs on soups, putting pot-herbs into 
 vegetables, and eating old, rancid cheese must be avoided. 
 
 In using the better quality of fish their preparation should be 
 especiall}^ looked to; they had best be prepared b}'^ boiling and used 
 sparingly with sauces not much spiced; but no fish dried in the air 
 or smoked; salt fish (herrings and sardines) only rarely and spar- 
 ingly. 
 
 Moderation in all things, even in harmless ones, is the chief duty 
 of chronic patients. 
 
 In considering diet, the use of tobacco should also be carefully 
 considered. Smoking in some cases of chronic diseases ma}' be per- 
 mitted, w^hen the patient had been accustomed to an uninterrupted 
 use of it, and if he does not expectorate; but smoking should always 
 he limited, and more so if the mental activity, sleep, digestion or the 
 evacuations are defective. If evacuations regularly only take place 
 after smoking, the use of this palliative must be all the more circum- 
 scribed, and the same result must be obtained in a lasting manner 
 through the appropriate antipsoric remedies. More objectionable 
 yet, however, is the using of snuff, which is wont to be abused as a 
 palliative against rheum and obstruction of the nose and insidious in- 
 flammation of the eyes, and which being a palliative, is a great hin- 
 drance in the cure of chronic diseases; it can, therefore, not be allowed 
 with such patients, but must be diminished every day and at last 
 stopped. An especial reason for this is also that in snuff the medic- 
 inal liquors (sauces) with which almost all snuff is medicated 
 touches with its substance the nerves of the inner nose and injures 
 just as if a foreign medicine were taken, which is less the case with 
 the burning, smoking tobacco in which the strength is disintegrated 
 "by the heat. 
 
 I now pass to the other hinderances to the cure of chronic dis- 
 eases w^hich must be avoided as far as possible. 
 
 All those events in human life which can bring the psora latent 
 and slumbering within, which has hitherto manifested itself only by 
 some of the signs mentioned above, wherein the patient varies from 
 a state of health, so as to break out into open chronic diseases, these 
 same events if they occur to a person already a chronic patient may 
 not only augment his disease and increase the difiiculty of curing it, 
 
hahnkmx\nn's chronic diseases. 113 
 
 but, if they break in on him violently, may make his disease incura- 
 ble, if the untoward circumstances are not suddenly changed for the 
 better. 
 
 Such events are, however, of ver}' various nature, and therefore 
 of different degrees of injurious influence. 
 
 Excessive hardships, laboring in swamps, great bodily injuries 
 and wounds, excess of cold or heat, and even the unsatisfied hunger of 
 poverty and its unwholesome foods, etc. , are not by any means very 
 powerful in causing the fearful malady of psora which lies in ambush, 
 lurking in secret to break forth into serious chronic diseases, nor of 
 great consequence in aggravating a chronic disease already present; 
 yea, an innocent man can, with less injury to his life, pass ten 3^ears 
 in bodily torments in the bastile or on the galleys rather than pass 
 some months in all bodily comfort in an unhappy marriage or with a 
 remorseful conscience. A psora slumbering within, which still allows 
 the favorite of a prince to live with the appearance of almost bloom- 
 ing health unfolds quickly into a chronic ailment of the body, or dis- 
 tracts his mental organs into insanity, when by a change of fortune 
 he is hurled from his brilliant pinnacle and is exposed to contempt 
 and poverty. The sudden death of a son causes the tender mother, 
 already in ill health an incurable suppuration of the lungs or a cancer 
 of the breast. A young, affectionate maiden, already hysterical, is 
 thrown into melancholy by a disappointment in love. 
 
 How difficult it is, and how seldom will the best antipsoric treat- 
 ment do anything to relieve such unfortunates! 
 
 By far the most frequent excitement of the slumbering psora into 
 chronic disease, and the most frequent aggravation of chronic ail- 
 ments already existing, are caused by grief and vexation. 
 
 Uninterrupted grief and vexation very soon increase even the 
 smallest traces of a slumbering psora into more severe symptoms, and 
 they then develop these into an outbreak of all imaginable chronic 
 sufferings more certainly and more frequently than all other inju- 
 rious influences operating on the human organism in an average 
 human life; while these two agencies just as surel}^ and frequently 
 augment ailments alread}^ existing. 
 
 As the good physician will be pleased wdien he can enliven and 
 keep from ennui the mind of a patient, in order to advance a euro 
 which is not encumbered with such obstructions, he will in such a 
 case feel more than ever the dut}^ incumbent upon him to do all 
 within the power of his influence on the patient and on his relatives 
 and surroundings, in order to relieve him of grief and vexation. 
 This will and must be a chief end of his care and neighborly love. 
 
 But if the relations of the patient cannot be improved in this

114 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 respect, and if he has not sufficient philosophy, reHgion and power 
 over himself to bear patiently and with equanimity all the sufferings 
 and afflictions for which he is not to blame, and which it is not in 
 his power to change; if grief and vexation continually beat in upon 
 him, and it is out of the power of the physician to effect a lasting 
 removal of these most active destroyers of life, he had better give up 
 the treatmenr-^ and leave the patient to his fate, for even the most 
 masterly management of the case with the remedies that are the 
 most exquisite and the best adapted to the bodily ailment will avail 
 nothing, nothing at all, with a chronic patient thus exposed to con- 
 tinual sorrow and vexation, and in whom the vital economy is being 
 destroyed by continuous assaults on the mind. The continuation of 
 the fairest edifice is foolish, when the foundation is being daily un- 
 dermined, even if but gradually, by the play of the waves. 
 
 Almost as near, and often nearer yet, to incurability are the 
 chronic diseases, especially with great and rich men, who for 
 some years, besides the use of mineral baths, f have passed through 
 the hands of various, often of many, allopathic physicians, who 
 have tried on them one after another all the fashionable modes of 
 cure, the remedies which are so boastingly lauded in England, • 
 France and Italy, — all strongl}^ acting mixtures. By so many un- 
 suitable medicines, which are injurious by their violence and their 
 frequent repetition in large doses, the psora which always lies within, 
 even if not combined with syphilis, becomes every year more incur- 
 able, as do also the chronic ailments springing from it; and after the 
 continuation of such irrational medical assaults on the organism for 
 several years it becomes almost quite incurable. It cannot well be 
 decided, since these things take place in the dark, w^hether these 
 heroic unhomceopathic doses have added, as may be suspected, new 
 ailments to the original disease, which ailments through the large- 
 ness of the doses and their frequent repetition have now become 
 lasting and as it were chronic, or whether through abuse there has 
 resulted a crippling of the different faculties of the organism, i. e. , 
 
 ^ Unless the patient should have little or no cause for his grief and sor- 
 row, or hardly any incitement from without to vexation, and in consequence 
 would need more particularly to be treated with respect to his mental disorder, 
 by means of the antipsoric remedies, which are at the same time suited to the 
 rest of his chronic disease. Such cases are not only curable, but often even 
 easily curable. 
 
 t Every time the baths are used, even when the water is not in itself unsuit- 
 able to the ailment, they are to be considered as the use of large doses often 
 repeated of one and the same violently acting medicine, the violent operation 
 of which can seldom be salutary, and must often result in the aggravation of 
 the morbid state, yea, even to the patient's utter destruction.

 those of irritability, of sensation and of reproduction, and so (proba- 
 bh^ from both causes) there has arisen the monster of various ail- 
 ments, fused into one .another, which can no longer be rationally 
 viewed as a simple natural ailment. In short, this many-sided dis- 
 harmony and perversion of parts and of forces most indispensable to 
 life present a chaos of ailments which the homoeopathic physician 
 should not lightly declare curable. 
 
 By such treatments, which are incapable of curing the original 
 disease, but are exhausting and debilitating, the aggravation of the 
 psora is not only hastened from within, but new artificial and threat- 
 ening ailments are generated by such delusive allopathic cures, so 
 that the vital force, thus attacked from two sides, often is unable to 
 escape. 
 
 If in such cases the sad consequences of these indirect assaults of 
 the old methods of cure were dynamic disturbances only, they would 
 surely either disappear of themselves when the treatment is discon- 
 tinued, or they ought at least to be extinguished again effectively 
 through homoeopathic medicines. But this is not at all the case; 
 they do not yield. Very likely by these indirect, continuous and 
 repeated assaults on the sensitive, irritable fiber by such injudicious 
 medicinal disease-potencies, which are given in large doses fre- 
 quently repeated, the vital force is obliged to meet this attack and 
 to endeavor either to dynamically change these tender internal 
 organs which are assaulted so mercilessly, or to reconstruct them 
 materially so as to make them unassailable to such violent attacks, 
 and thus to protect and shield the organism from general destruction. 
 Thus, e. g. , this force, which instinctively preserves life, beneficially 
 shields the fine sensitive skin of the hand with a callous covering of 
 hard, horny skin in persons with whom the skin is exposed to 
 frequent injuries during hard labor whereby the skin is injured b}^ 
 hard, scratching materials or by corroding substances. So also in a 
 long continued allopathic treatment, which has no true healing 
 power with respect to the disease, no direct pathic (homoeopathic) re- 
 lation to the parts and processes concerned in the chronic disease, 
 but internally assaults other delicate parts and organs of the body, in 
 such cases the vital force, in order to protect the whole from destruc- 
 tion, dynamically and organically transmutes these fine organs; /. <\, 
 either makes them inactive or parah^zes them, or dulls their sensitive- 
 ness, or makes them altogether callous. On the one side the most 
 tender fiber is abnormally thickened or hardened, and the more vig- 
 orous fibers consumed or annihilated — thus there arise artificially, 
 adventitious organisms, malformations and degenerations, which at 
 post-mortem examinations are cuiniingly ascribed to the nialignanc>- 
 
Il6 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 of the original disease. Such an internal state is not infrequent, and 
 is in man}' cases incurable. Onl}- where there are still sufficient vital 
 powers in a bod}' not too much bowed down b}- age (but where 
 under an allopathic regime do we not find the powers wasted?) 
 under favorable external circumstances, the vital force d3'namically 
 freed from its original disease by the careful homoeopathic (anti- 
 psoric) treatment of a practiced ph3'sician, ma}' succeed in gradually 
 reasserting itself, and in gradually absorbing and transforming those 
 (often numerous) adventitious secondary formations which it was com- 
 pelled to form. Such a transformation is, however, only possible to 
 a still energetic vital force, which has been in great part set free from 
 its psora. Only however, under favorable external circumstances, 
 and after the lapse of a considerable time and usually in only an im- 
 perfect manner, does the vital force succeed in this almost creative 
 endeavor. Experience proves daily that the more zealoush' the allo- 
 path puts into practice in chronic diseases his per\'erse destructive 
 art (often with great care, industry and persistence), the more he 
 ruins his patients in health and life. 
 
 How can perversions, introduced into patients in this manner 
 frequently for years, be transformed in a short time into health even 
 by the best, i. e., the true method of cure, which has never assumed 
 to itself the power of directly influencing organic defects ? 
 
 The physician has to meet in such cases no natural, simple psoric 
 disease. He can therefore promise an improvement only after a long 
 period of time, but never a full restoration, even if the vital powers 
 are not (as is so frequently the case) altogether wasted; for where 
 this is the case, he would feel compelled to desist from treatment 
 even at the first glance. First the many chronic medicinal diseases 
 which pass over the fluctuating state of health must gradually be 
 removed (perhaps during a several months' stay in the country 
 almost without medicine); or they must depart as of themselves 
 through the activity of the vital force, when the antipsoric treat- 
 ment has to some degree begun, with an improved manner of living 
 and a regulated diet. For who could find remedies for all these ail- 
 ments artificially produced by a confused mass of strong unsuitable 
 medicines ? The vital force must first absorb and reform what it has 
 compulsorily deformed, before the true healer will in time see again 
 before him a partially cleared malady similar to the original one, and 
 which he will then be able to combat.^ 
 
 - On the other hand, the most dreadful diseases of every kind which have 
 not been spoiled by any medical fatuity, in the families of farm laborers and 
 other day laborers, on whom of course no ordinary physician presses his ser- 
 vices, are quite commonty, almost as if by a miracle, cured by the antipsoric 
 remedies in a short time, and are transformed into lasting good health.

 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. II 7 
 
 Woe to the 3^oung homoeopathic physician who has to found his 
 fame upon the cure of those diseases, of rich and prominent persons, 
 which b)' a mass of allopathic evil arts have degenerated into such 
 monstrosities! With all his care he will end in failure! 
 
 A similar great hindrance to a cure of far-advanced chronic dis- 
 eases is often found in the debility and weakness into which youths 
 fall who are spoiled by rich parents, being carried away by their 
 superabundance and wantonness, and seduced by wicked companions 
 through destructive passions and excesses, through revelings, abuse 
 of the sexual instinct, gambling, etc. Without the least regard for 
 life and for conscience, bodies originally robust are debilitated by 
 such vices into mere semblances of humanity, and are besides ruined 
 by perverse treatment of their venereal diseases, so that the psora, 
 which frequently lurks within, grows up into the most pitiable 
 chronic diseases, which, even if the morality of the patient should 
 have improved, on account of the depressing remorse, and the little 
 remnant of their wasted vital powers, accept antipsoric relief only with 
 the greatest difiiculty. Such cases should be undertaken by homoeo- 
 pathic physicians as curable only with the greatest caution and re- 
 serve. 
 
 But where the above-mentioned often almost insurmountable 
 obstacles to the cure of these innumerable chronic diseases are not 
 present,''"^ there is nevertheless found at times, especially with the 
 lower classes of patients, a peculiar obstruction to the cure, which lies 
 in the source of the malady itself, where the psora, after repeated in- 
 fections and a repeated external repression of the resulting eruption, 
 had developed gradually from its internal state into one or more 
 severe chronic ailments. A cure will, indeed, also be certainly 
 effected here, if the above-mentioned obstacles do not prevent, b^^ a 
 judicious use of the antipsoric remedies, but only with much patience 
 and considerable time, and onl^^ with patients who observe the direc- 
 tions and who are not too aged nor too much debilitated. 
 
 But in these difficult cases also the wise arrangement of nature is 
 
 ^ One additional obstacle to the homoeopatliic cure of chronic diseases, and 
 one which is not very rare but is still usually disregarded, if : T/ir si//>/)frssr(f 
 sexual instinct with marriageable persons of either sex, either from non- 
 marriage owing to various causes not removable by a physician, or where in 
 married persons sexual intercourse of an infirm wife with a vigorous husband, 
 or of the infirm husband with a vigorous wife has been absolute!}' and forever 
 interdicted by an injudicious physician, as is not infrequently the case. In 
 such cases a more intelligent physician, recognizing the circumstances and the 
 natural impulse implanted by the Creator, will give his permission and thus 
 not infrequently render curable a multitude of hysterical and hypochondriac 
 states, yea, often even melancholy and insanity. 
 
Il8 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 manifested in aid of our efforts, if we only make a good use of the 
 favorable moment offering. For experience informs us that in a 
 case of itch arising from a new infection, even when, after several 
 preceding infections and repressions of the eruption, the psora has 
 made considerable progress in the production of chronic diseases of 
 many kinds, the itch which has last arisen, if it has only still kept 
 its full primitive eruption unhindered on the skin, may be cured 
 almost as easil}^ as if it were the first and the onlj^ one, i. e., usually 
 by merely one or a few doses of the appropriate antipsoric medicine, 
 and that by such a cure the whole psora of all the preceding infec- 
 tions, together with its outbreaks into chronic ailments, is cured.* 
 
 Nevertheless it is not advisable to intentionally cause a new arti- 
 ficial infection with itch, even if the patient felt no repugnance to it 
 (as is nevertheless, frequently the case) merel}^ on account of the 
 easier cure in that case of the old psora which had been several times 
 renewed; because in severe chronic diseases of a non- venereal and 
 therefore psoric origin, — as e. g. suppuration of the lungs, a com- 
 plete paralyzation of one or another part of the body, etc., — the itch 
 miasma rarely retains its hold, and, as far as experience shows, it 
 clings less when caused by an artificial inoculation than when it 
 originates from an accidental, unintentional infection. 
 
 I have little further to saj^ to the physician already skilled in the 
 homoeopathic art as to how he is to operate in the cure ,of chronic 
 diseases, except to direct him to the antipsoric remedies appended to 
 this w^ork; for he will know how to use these remedies for this noble 
 end successfully. I have only to add a few^ cautions. 
 
 First of all, the great truth is established that all chronic ail- 
 ments, all great, and the greatest, long continuing diseases (except- 
 ing the few venereal ones) spring from psora alone and only find 
 their thorough cure in the cure of the psora; they are, consequently, 
 to be healed mostly only by antipsoric remedies, /. e., by those 
 remedies which in their provings as to their pure action on the 
 healthy human body manifest most of the symptoms which are most 
 frequently perceived in latent as well as in developed psora. 
 
 The homoeopathic physician, therefore, in curing a chronic (non- 
 
 *The same is the case, according to the merciful arrangement of nature, 
 with sj^phiUs, where, after a local destruction of the chancre or the bubo and 
 after a consequent breaking out of the venereal disease, a new infection takes 
 place. The new infection, while the chancre remains undisturbed, may be 
 cured, together with the venereal disease sprung from the former infection, just 
 as easily by a single dose of the best mercurial preparation, as if the first 
 chancre were still present,— provided that no complication with either of the 
 other two chronic miasmata, especially the psoric, has taken place; for in such 
 a case, as has been mentioned above, the psora must first be removed. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISKASEvS. II9 
 
 venereal) disease, and in all and in ever}^ s3anptom, ailment and dis- 
 order arising in this disease, no matter what seductive name these 
 ma}^ have in common life or in pathology, will usually and especially 
 look to the use of an antipsoric medicine selected according to 
 strictl}" homoeopathic rules, in order to surely attain his end. 
 
 Let him not think, while a well-chosen antipsoric medicine is 
 acting and the patient some day feels a moderate headache, or else a 
 moderate ailment, that he must give the patient at once some other 
 medicine, whether an antipsoric or another remedy; or if perchance 
 a sore throat should arise, that he must give another remedy, or 
 another on account of diarrhoea, or another on account of some 
 moderate pain in one part or another, etc. 
 
 No! the homoeopathic antipsoric medicine having been chosen as 
 well as possible to suit the morbid S3^mptoms, and given in the 
 appropriate potenc}^ and in the proper dose, the physician should as 
 a rule allow it to finish its action without disturbing it b}^ an inter- 
 vening remedy. 
 
 For if the S3^mptoms occurring during the action of the remed^^ 
 have also occurred, if not in the last few weeks, at least now and then 
 some weeks before, or some months before in a similar manner, then 
 such occurrences are merely a homoeopathic excitation, through the 
 medicine, of some symptom not quite unusual to this disease, of 
 something which had perhaps been more frequently troublesome 
 before, and they are a sign that this medicine acts deeply into the 
 very essence of this disease, and that consequently it will be more 
 effective in the future. The medicine, therefore^ should be allowed 
 to continue and exhaust its action undisturbed, without giving the 
 least medicinal substance between its doses. 
 
 But if the symptoms are different and had never before occurred , 
 or never in this way, and, therefore, are peculiar to this medicine 
 and not to be expected in the process of the disease, but trifling, the 
 action of the medicine ought not for the present to be interrupted. 
 Such s3^mptoms frequently pass off without interrupting the helpful 
 activity of the remedy; but if they are of a burdensome intensity, 
 they are not to be endured; in such a case they are a sign that the 
 antipsoric medicine was not selected in the correct homoeopathic 
 manner. Its action must then be checked b3^ an antidote, or when 
 no antidote to it is known, another antipsoric medicine more accu- 
 rately answering its symptoms must be given in its place; in this 
 case these false symptoms ma3' continue a few more da3'S, or tlie3' 
 may return, but they will soon come to a final end and be replaced 
 by a better help. 
 
 IvCast of all, need we to be concerned when the usual customary 
 
I20 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 symptoms are aggravated and show most prominently on the first 
 days, and again on some of the following days, but gradually less 
 and less. This so-called homoeopathic aggravation is a sign of an 
 incipient cure (of the symptoms thus aggravated at present), which 
 may be expected with certainty. 
 
 But if these aggravated original symptoms appear on subsequent 
 days still of the same strength as at the beginning, or even with an 
 increased severity, it is a sign that the dose of this antipsoric remedy, 
 although properly selected according to homoeopathic principles, was 
 too large, and it is to be apprehended that no cure will be effected 
 by it; because the medicine in so large a dose is able to establish a 
 disease, which in some respects, indeed, is similar to it; with respect 
 to the fact, however, that the medicine in its present intensity un~ 
 folds also its other symptoms which annul the similarity, it produces 
 a dissimilar chronic disease instead of the former, and, indeed, a more 
 severe and troublesome one, without thereby extinguishing the old 
 original one. 
 
 This will be decided in the first sixteen, eighteen or twenty days 
 of the action of the medicine which has been given in too large a 
 dose, and it must then be checked, either by prescribing its antidote, 
 or, if this is not as yet known, by giving another antipsoric medicine 
 fitting as well as possible, and indeed in a very moderate dose, and if 
 this does not suffice to extinguish this injurious medicinal disease, 
 another still should be given as homoeopathically suitable as pos- 
 sible.* 
 
 Now when the stormy assault caused by too large a dose of med~ 
 icine, although homoeopathically selected, has been assuaged through 
 an antidote or the later use of some other antipsoric remedies, then, 
 later on, the same antipsoric remedy — which had been hurtful onl}^ 
 because of its over-large dose — can be used again, and, indeed, as 
 soon as it is homoeopathically indicated, with the greatest success, 
 only in a far smaller dose and in a much more highly potentized 
 attenuation, i. e., in a milder quality. 
 
 The physician can, indeed, make no worse mistake than Jifst, to 
 consider as too small the doses which I (forced by experience) have 
 reduced after manifold trials and which are indicated with every 
 antipsoric remedy and secondly, the wrong choice of a remedy, and 
 
 " I have myself experienced this accident, which is very obstructive to a 
 cure and cannot be avoided too carefully. Still ignorant of the strength of its 
 medicinal power, I gave sepia in too large a dose. This trouble was still more 
 manifest when I gave lycopodmui and silicea, potentized to the one-billionth 
 degree, giving four to six pellets, though only as large as poppy seeds. Discite 
 inoniti ! 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 121 
 
 thirdly, the hastiness which does not allow each dose to act its full 
 time. 
 
 The first error I have already spoken of, and would only add that 
 nothing is lost if the dose is given even smaller than I have pre- 
 scribed. It can hardly be given too small^ if only everything in the 
 diet and the remaining mode of life of the patient which would 
 obstruct or counteract the action of the medicine is avoided. The 
 medicine will still produce all the good effects which can at all be 
 expected from a medicine, if only the antipsoric was homoeopathic- 
 alty, correctly, selected according to the carefully investigated sj^mp- 
 toms of the disease, and if the patient does not disturb its effects by 
 his violation of the rules. If ever it should happen that the choice 
 has not been correctl}' made, the great advantage 7^e?nai?is, that the 
 incorrectly selected medicine in this smallest dose fnay in the ma7iner 
 indicated above be counteracted more easily, whereupon the cure may 
 be continued without delay with a more suitable antipsoric. 
 
 As to the second chief error in the cure of chronic diseases {^the un- 
 homoeopathic choice of the 7)iedici7ie) the homoeopathic beginner (many, 
 I am sorr}^ to say, remain such beginners their life long) sins chiefly 
 through inexactness, lack of earnestness and through love of ease. 
 
 With the great conscientiousness which should be shown in the 
 restoration of a human life endangered by sickness more than in any- 
 thing else, the Homoeopath, if he would act in a manner worthy of 
 his calling, should investigate first the whole state of the patient, the 
 internal cause as far as it is remembered, and the cause of the con- 
 tinuance of the ailment, his mode of life, his quality as to mind, soul 
 and body, together w^ith all his symptoms (see directions in O7ga7io7i), 
 and then he should carefully find out in the work on Chronic Dis- 
 eases as well as in the work on Materia Medica Pura a remed}' cov- 
 ering in similarity, as far as possible, all the moments, or at least the 
 most striking and peculiar ones, with its own peculiar symptoms; 
 and for this purpose he should not be satisfied with any of the exist- 
 ing repertories, — a carelessness onl}^ too frequent; for these books 
 are only intended to give light hints as to one or another remedy 
 that might be selected, but the}^ can never dispense him from making 
 the research at the first fountain heads. He who does not take the 
 trouble of treading this path in all critical and complicated diseases, 
 and, indeed, with all patience and intelligence, but contents himself 
 with the vague hints of the repertories in the choice of a remedy, 
 and who thus quickly dispatches one patient after the other, does not 
 deserve the honorable title of a genuine Homoeopath, but is rather to 
 be called a bungler, who on that account has continually to change 
 his remedies until the patient loses patience; and as his aihnonts 
 
122 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 have of course onh^ been aggravated he must leave this aggravator 
 of diseases, whereby the art itself suffers discredit instead of the un- 
 worthy disciple of art. 
 
 This disgraceful love of ease (in the calling which demands the 
 most conscientious care) often induces such would-be Homoeopaths 
 to give their medicines merely from the (often problematic) statement 
 of their use {ab usu in morbis) which are enumerated in the intro- 
 ductions to the medicines, a method which is altogether faulty and 
 strongly savors of allopathy, as these statements usually only give a 
 few symptoms. They should only serve as a confirmation of a choice 
 made according to the pure actions of the medicines; but never to 
 determine the selection of a remedy which can cure only when used 
 according to the exact similitude of its homoeopathic sjmiptoms. 
 There are, we are sorry to say, even authors who advise following 
 this empiric pathway of error ! 
 
 The third leading mistake which the homoeopathic ph^^sician can- 
 not too carefully nor too steadfastly avoid while treating chronic 
 diseases, is in hastily and thoughtlessl}- — when a properly moderate 
 dose of a well selected antipsoric medicine has been serviceable for 
 several daj^s, — giving some other medicine in the mistaken supposi- 
 tion that so small a dose could not possibly operate and be of use 
 more than eight or ten days. This notion is sought to be supported 
 b}^ the statement that on some day or other, while allowed to con- 
 tinue its action, the morbid symptoms which were to be eradicated, 
 had shown themselves somewhat from time to time. 
 
 But if once a medicine, because it was selected in a correct homoeo- 
 pathic manner, is acting well and usefully, which is seen by the 
 eighth or tenth da}', then an hour or even half a da}' may come when 
 a moderate homoeopathic aggravation again takes place. The good 
 results will not fail to appear but ma}', in very tedious ailments, 
 not show themselves in their best light before the twenty-fourth 
 or thirtieth day. The dose will then probably have exhausted its 
 favorable action about the fortieth or fiftieth day, and before that 
 time it would be injudicious, and an obstruction to the progress of 
 the cure, to give any other medicine. Let it not be thought, how- 
 ever, that we should scarcely wait for the time assigned as the 
 probable duration of action to elapse, before giving another anti- 
 psoric medicine: that we should hasten to change to a new medicine in 
 order to finish the cure more quickly. Experience contradicts this 
 notion entirely, and teaches on the contrary, that a cure cannot be 
 accomplished more quickly and surely than by allowing the suitable 
 antipsoric to continue its actions so long as the imp7'ovenie7it con- 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASKS. 1 23 
 
 iinues, even if this should be several, yea, mayiy"^^"- days beyond the 
 assigned, supposed time of its duration, so as to delay as long as 
 practicable the giving of a new medicine. 
 
 Whoever can restrain his impatience as to this point, will reach 
 his object the more surely and the more certainly. Only when the 
 old symptoms, which had been eradicated or very much diminished 
 by the last and the preceding medicines commence to rise again for 
 a few da^'s, or to be again perceptibly aggravated, then the time has 
 most surely come w^hen a dose of the medicine most homoeopathically 
 fitting should be given. Experience and careful observation alone 
 can decide; and it always has decided in my manifold, exact obser- 
 vations, so as to leave no doubt remaining. 
 
 Now if we consider the great changes which must be effected by 
 the medicine in the many, variously composite and incredibly deli- 
 cate parts of our living organism, before a chronic miasm so deeply 
 inrooted and, as it were, parasitically interwoven with the economy 
 of our life as psora is, can be eradicated and health be thus restored: 
 then it may well be seen how natural it is, that during the long- 
 continued action of a dose of antipsoric medicine selected homoeo- 
 pathically, assaults may be made by it at various periods on the 
 organism, as it were in undulating fluctuations during this long- 
 continued disease. Experience shows that when for several days 
 there has been an improvement, half hours or whole hours or several 
 hours wHll again appear when the case seems to become worse; but 
 these periods, so long as only the original ailments are renewed and 
 no new, severe symptoms present themselves, only show a continuing 
 improvement, being homoeopathic aggravations which do not hinder 
 but advance the cure, as they are only renewed beneficent assaults f 
 on the disease, though they are wont to appear at times sixteen, 
 twent}^ or twenty-four days after taking a dose of antipsoric 
 medicine. 
 
 ■^ In a case where sepia had showed itself completely homoeopathically anti- 
 psoric for a peculiar headache that appeared in repeated attacks, and where the 
 ailment had been diminished both as to intensity and duration, while the 
 pauses between the attacks had also been much lengthened, when the attacks 
 re-appeared I repeated the dose, which then caused the attacks to cease for 
 one hundred days (consequently its action continued that long), when it reap- 
 peared to some degree, which necessitated another dose, after which no other 
 attack took place for, now, seven years, while the health was also otherwise 
 perfect, 
 
 t These attacks, however, if the antipsoric remedy was selected filtinj^ly and 
 homoeopathically and the dose was a moderate one, during its continued action 
 take place, ever more and more rarely and more feebly, but if the doses were 
 too strong they come more frequently and more strongly, to the detriment ot 
 the patient. 
 
124 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 As a rule, therefore, the antipsoric medicine in chronic diseases 
 continue their action the longer, the more tedious the diseases are. 
 But vice versa also those medicines which in the health}' bod}' show 
 a long period of action act only a short time and quickl}" in acute 
 diseases w^hich speedih' run their course {e. g. belladonna, sulphur^ 
 arsenic, etc. ) and their periods of action are shorter, the more acute 
 the diseases. The ph^'sician must, therefore, in chronic diseases, 
 allow all antipsoric remedies to act thirty- , forty or even fifty and 
 more da3'S by tJiemselves, so long as the}' continue to improve the dis~ 
 eased state perceptibly to the acute observer, even though gradually; 
 for so long the good effects continue with the indicated doses and 
 these must not be disturbed and checked b}' any new remed}^'^ 
 
 * The importance of avoiding the above-described two errors will hardly be 
 realized by phjvsicians. These great, pure truths will be questioned yet for years, 
 even by most of the homoeopathic phj^sicians, and will not, therefore, be prac- 
 ticed, on account of the theoretical reflection and the reigning thought: " It 
 requires quite an effort to believe that so little a thing, so prodigiously small a 
 dose of medicine, could effect the least thing in the human bod}-, especially in 
 coping with such enormously great, tedious diseases; but that the physician 
 must cease to reason, if he should believe that these prodigiously small doses 
 can act not onty two or three daj-s, but even twenty, thirty and forty days 
 and longer j-et, and cause, even to the last day of their operation, important, 
 beneficent effects otherwise unattainable." Nevertheless this true theorem 
 is not to be reckoned among those which should be comprehended, nor among 
 those for which I ask a blind faith. I demand no faith at all, and do not 
 demand that anybody- should comprehend it. Neither do I comprehend it; it 
 is enough, that it is a fact and nothing else. Experience alone declares it, and 
 I believe more in experience than in my own intelligence. But who will arro- 
 gate to himself the power of weighing the invisible forces that have hitherto 
 been concealed in the inner bosom of nature, when they are brought out of the 
 crude state of apparently dead matter through a new, hitherto undiscovered 
 agency, such as is potentizing by long continued trituration and succussion. 
 But he who will not allow himself to be convinced of this and who will not, 
 therefore, imitate what I now teach after many years' trial and experience (and 
 what does the physician risk, if he imitates it exactly?), he who is not willing- 
 to imitate it exactly, can leave this greatest problem of our art unsolved, he can 
 also leave the most important chronic diseases uncured, as they have remained 
 unhealed; indeed, up to the time of my teaching. I have no more to say about 
 this. It seemed to me my duty to publish the great truths to the world that 
 needs them, untroubled as to whether people can compel themselves to follow 
 them exactly or not. If it is not done with exactness, let no one boast to have 
 imitated me, nor expect a good result. 
 
 Do we refuse to imitate any operation until the wonderful forces of 
 nature on which the result is based are clearly brought before our eyes and 
 made comprehensible even to a child ? Would it not be 'silly to refuse to- 
 strike sparks from the stone and flint, because we cannot comprehend how 
 so much combined caloric can be in these bodies, or how this can be drawn 
 out by rubbing or striking, so that the particles of steel which are rubbed off

 But if these appropriate!}^ selected antipsoric medicines are not 
 allowed to act their full time, when they are acting well, the whole 
 treatment will amount to nothing. Another antipsoric remedy 
 which ma}' be ever so useful, but is prescribed too early and before 
 the cessation of the action of the present remedy, or a new dose of 
 the same renied}' which is still usefull}^ acting, can in no case replace 
 the good effect which has been lost through the interruption of the 
 complete action of the preceding remedy, which was acting usefully, 
 and which can hardh' be again replaced. 
 
 It is a fundamental 7'iile in the treatment of chronic diseases: To 
 let the action of the remedy, selected i7i a mode homceopathically appro- 
 priate to the case of disease which lias been carefully investigated as to 
 its sympto7ns, come to an undisturbed conclusion, so long as it visibly 
 advances the cure ayid the while improve^neyit still perceptibly progresses. 
 This method forbids any new prescription, any interruption by an- 
 other medicine and forbids as well the immediate repetitio7i of the saine 
 remedy. Nor can there be anything more desirable for the physician 
 than to see the improvement of the patient proceed to its completion 
 unhindered and perceptibly. There are not a few cases, where 
 the practiced careful Homoeopath sees a single dose of his remedy, 
 selected so as to be perfectly homoeopathic, even in a very severe 
 chronic disease, continue uninterruptedly to diminish the ailment for 
 several weeks, yea, months, up to recovery; a thing which could not 
 have been expected better in any other way, and could not have been 
 effected by treating with several doses or with several medicines. 
 To make the possibility of this process in some way intelligible, we 
 may assume, what is not very unlikely, that an antipsoric remedy 
 selected most accurately according to homoeopathic principles, even 
 in the smallest dose of a high or the highest potenc}^ can manifest so 
 long- continued a curative force, and at last cure, probabl}^, onl}^ by 
 means of a certain infection with a very similar medicinal disease 
 which overpowers the original disease, by the process of nature 
 
 hy the stroke of the hard stone are melted, and, as glowing little balls, cause the 
 tinder to catch fire ? And yet we strike fire with it, without understanding or 
 comprehending this miracle of the inexhaustible caloric hidden in the cold 
 steel, or the possibility of calling it out with a frictional stroke. Again, it 
 would be just as silly as if we should refuse to learn to write, because we cannot 
 comprehend how one man can communicate his thought to another through 
 pen, ink and paper — and yet we communicate our thoughts to a friend in a 
 letter without either being able or desirous of comprehending this psychico- 
 physical miracle! Why, then, should we hesitate to conquer and heal the 
 bitterest foes of the life of our fellow-men, the chronic diseases, in the stated 
 way, which, punctually followed, is the best possible method, because we tlo 
 not see how these cures are effected ? 
 
126 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 itself, according to which {^Orgmion, % 45, Fifth Edition,) two dis- 
 eases which are different, indeed, in their kind but very similar in 
 their manifestations and effects, as also in the ailments and symp- 
 toms caused hy it, w^hen thej^ meet together in the organism, the 
 stronger disease (which is always the one caused hy the medicine, 
 § 33, ibid.) destroys the w^eaker (the natural one). In this case every 
 new medicine and also a new dose of the same medicine, would 
 interrupt the work of improvement and cause new ailments, an inter- 
 ference which often cannot be repaired for a long time. 
 
 But if any unfavorable effects are evolved by the present dose of 
 medicine, i. e. , troublesome symptoms which do not belong to this 
 disease, and if the mind of the patient becomes depressed, if only a 
 little at first, still increasingly, then the next dose of the same medi- 
 cine, given immediately after the former, cannot but become injurious 
 to the patient. Yet when a sudden great and striking improvement 
 of a tedious great ailment follows immediatel}^ on the first dose of 
 a medicine, there justly arises much suspicion that the remedy has 
 only acted palliatively, and therefore must never be gi\^en again, 
 even after the intervention of several others remedies. 
 
 Nevertheless there are cases which make an exception to the rule, 
 but which not every beginner should risk finding out.-'^ 
 
 The only allowable exception for an hnniediate repetitio7i of the 
 same medicine is when the dose of a well-selected and in every w^ay 
 suitable and beneficial remedy has made some beginning tow^ard an 
 improvement, but its action ceases too quickly, its power is too soon 
 exhausted, and the cure does not proceed any further. This is rare 
 in chronic diseases, but in acute diseases and in chronic diseases that 
 rise into an acute state it is frequently the case. It is only then, — as 
 a practiced observer may recognize — when the peculiar symptoms of 
 the disease to be treated, after fourtee^i , ten, seven, and even fewer days, 
 visibly cease to dimiiiish, so that the improvement 7nanifestly has come 
 
 •^ Still there has been of late much abuse of this immediate repetition of 
 doses of the same medicine, because young Homoeopaths thought it more con- 
 venient to repeat, without examination, a medicine which in the beginning had 
 been found to be homoeopathically suitable, and which had therefore in the 
 beginning proved serviceable, and even to repeat it frequently without exami- 
 nation, so as to heal more quickly. ^ 
 
 We may declare at once, that the practice of late, which has even been 
 recommended in public journals of giving the patient several doses of the same 
 medicine to take with him, so that he may take them himself at certain in- 
 tervals, without considering whether this repetition may affect him injuriously, 
 seems to show a negligent empiricism, and to be unworthy of a homoeopathic 
 physician, who should not allow a new dose of a medicine to be taken or given 
 withoiit convincing himself in every case beforehand as to its usefulness. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DIvSKASES. 1 27 
 
 to a stop, icithout any disturbance of the mind and without the appear- 
 ance of any new troublesome symptoms, so that the fonner medicine 
 would still be perfectly homa^opathically suitable, only then, I say, is it 
 useful, and probably necessar3^ to give a dose of the same medicine 
 of a similarly small amount, but most safel}'- in a different degree of 
 dynamic potency.'^ When the remedy is thus modified, the vital 
 force of the patient will allow itself more easily to be further affected 
 by the same medicine, so as to eifect by it everything that ma}^ be 
 expected of this medicine and in this ailment, j 
 
 To adduce an example: a freshly arisen eruption of itch belongs 
 to those diseases which might soonest permit the repetition of the 
 dose (sulphur), and which does permit it the more frequently, the 
 sooner after the infection the itch is received for treatment, as it then 
 approaches the nature of an acute disorder, and demands its remedies 
 in more frequent doses than when it has been standing on the skin 
 for some time. But this repetition should be permitted only when 
 the preceding dose has largelj^ exhausted its action (after six, eight 
 or ten days), and the dose should be just as small as the preceding 
 one, and be given in a different potency. Nevertheless it is in such 
 a case often serviceable, in answer to a slight change of symptoms, to 
 interpose between the doses of pure sulphur, a small dose of Hepar 
 sulphuris calcareu7n. This also should be given in various potenc- 
 ies, if several doses should be needed from time to time. Often also, 
 according to circumstances, a dose of Nux vomica (x) or one of 
 mercury (x)J may be used between. 
 
 If I except sulphur, Hepar sulphuris and in some cases Sepia, 
 the other antipsoric remedies can seldom be usefully given in imme- 
 
 ■^'If it, e. g., has first been given in the 30th potency, it will now be given 
 in perhaps the i8th, and if a repetition should be again found serviceable and 
 necessary, it might afterwards be given in the 24th, and later perhaps also in 
 the 12th and 6th, etc., if, e. g., the chronic disease should have taken on itself 
 an acute character. A dose of medicine may also have been suddenly counter- 
 acted and annihilated by a grave error in the regimen of the patient, 
 when perhaps a dose of the former serviceable medicine might again be giN'en 
 with the modification mentioned above. 
 
 t In cases where the physician is certain as to the homoeopathic specific to 
 be used, the first attenuated dose may also be dissolved in about four ounces of 
 water by stirring it, and one-third ma}^ be drunk at once, and the second and 
 third portions on the following days; but it should each time be again stirreil 
 so as to increase the potency and thus to change it. Thereby the remedy seems 
 to take a deeper hold on the organism and hasten the restoration in patients 
 who are vigorous and not too sensitive. 
 
 X That the itch-patient during such a treatment nuist avoid every external 
 application, however harmless it may appear, c. g., the washing with black 
 soap, is not necessary to emphasize. 
 
128 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 diately repeated doses. Indeed it is hardly ever needed in chronic 
 diseases, as we have a goodly suppl}^ of antipsoric remedies at our 
 disposal, so that as soon as one well selected remedy has completed 
 its action, and a change of symptoms, i. e., a change in the total 
 image of the disease, appears, another antipsoric remedy homoeopath- 
 icall}^ appropriate to the altered case may be chosen to greater advant- 
 age and w^ith a more sure prospect of hastening the cure, than if we 
 take the risk of prescribing the former medicine which now is no 
 longer altogether adequate. Nevertheless in very tedious and com- 
 plex cases, which are mostl}^ such as have been mismanaged by 
 allopathic treatment, it is nearly always necessary to give again 
 from time to time during the treatment, a dose of Sulphur or of 
 Hepar (according to the symptoms), even to the patients who have 
 been before dosed with large allopathic doses of Sulphur and with 
 sulphur-baths; but then only after a previous dose of Mercury (x). 
 
 Where, as is usually the case in chronic diseases, various anti- 
 psoric remedies are necessary, the more frequent sudden change of 
 them is a sign that the physician has selected neither the one nor 
 the other in an appropriately homoeopathic manner, and had not 
 properly investigated the leading symptoms of the case before pre- 
 scribing a new remedy. This is a frequent fault into which the 
 homoeopathic physician falls in urgent cases of chronic diseases, but 
 oftener still in acute diseases from overhaste, especially when the 
 patient is a person very dear to his heart. I cannot too urgently 
 warn against this fault. 
 
 Then the patient naturally falls into such an irritated state that, 
 as we say, no medicine acts, or shows its effect,* yea, so that the 
 power of response in the patient is in danger of flaring up and expir- 
 ing at the least further dose of medicine. In such a case no further 
 benefit can be had through medicine, but there may be in use a calm- 
 ing mesmeric stroke made from the crown of the head (on which both 
 the extended hands should rest for about a minute) slowly down 
 over the body, passing over the throat, shoulders, arms, hands, 
 knees and legs down over the feet and toes. This may be repeated 
 if necessary. 
 
 A dose of homoeopathic medicine may also be moderated and 
 softened by allowing the patient to smell t a small pellet moistened 
 
 ^ That a homoeopatliically potentized dose of medicine should ever fail of 
 having an effect in a treatment conducted zuith care, I think impossible; I have 
 never experienced it. 
 
 tBven persons born without the sense of smell or who have lost it through 
 disease, may expect equally efi&cient help from drawing in the imperceptible 
 vapor (proceeding from the medicine and contained in the vial) through one 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISKASEvS. 1 29 
 
 with the selected remed}' in a high potency, and placed in a vial 
 the mouth of which is held to the nostril of the patient, who draws 
 in only a momentary little whiff of it. By such an inhalation the 
 powers of any potentized medicine may be communicated to the 
 patient in any degree of strength. One or more such medicated 
 pellets, and even those of a larger size may be in the smelling-bottle, 
 and by allowing the patient to take longer or stronger whiffs, the 
 dose ma}^ be increased a hundred fold as compared with the smallest 
 first mentioned. The period of action of the power of a potentized 
 medicine taken in b}' such inhalation and spread over so large a 
 surface (as that of the nostrils and of the lungs) lasts as long as 
 that of a small massive dose taken through the mouth and the fauces. 
 
 Such medicated pellets kept in a stoppered vial retain their 
 medicinal power quite undiminished, even if the vial be opened a 
 number of times in many years for the purpose of inhalation; /. e. , if 
 the vial be preserved from sunshine and heat. This method of al- 
 lowing the patient to be acted upon by smelling the potentized medi- 
 cine has great advantages in the manifold mishaps which often 
 obstruct and interrupt the treatment of chronic diseases. The anti- 
 dote to remove these mishaps as quickly as possible the patient may 
 also best receive in greater or less strength through inhalation, 
 which acts most quickly on the nerves and so also affords the most 
 prompt assistance, by which also the continuation of the treatment 
 of the chronic disease is least delayed. When the mishap has thus 
 been obviated most speedily, the antipsoric medicine before taken fre- 
 quently continues its interrupted action for some time. But the 
 dose of the inhaled medicine must be so apportioned to the morbid 
 interruption that its effect just suffices to extinguish the disad- 
 vantage arising from the mishap, without going an}^ deeper or being 
 able to continue its operation any further. 
 
 If a homoeopathic physician, scrupulous at the wrong occasion, 
 should ask me how he might fill up the many days after giving a 
 dose, so that it may continue its action undisturbed during the 
 above-mentioned long time, and so satisf}^ without injuring, the 
 patient who every day* asks for his medicine, I reply with two 
 
 nostril or the other, as those do who are gifted with the sense of smell. From 
 this it follows that the nerves possessing merely the sense of touch receive the 
 salutary impression and communicate it unfailingly to the whole nervous 
 system. 
 
 *No old established custom among the people, be it ever so hurlUil. can 
 be suddenly changed. So also the homoeopathic physician cannot avoid 
 allowing a new chronic patient to take at least one little powder a day; the 
 difference between this and the many medicinal doses of allopaths is still very 
 
 10

 words, that he should be given every day at the usual time for 
 medicine a dose of sugar of milk, about three grains, which shall be 
 marked as usual with continuous numbers.* I remark here, that I 
 consider the sugar of milk thus used as an invaluable gift of God.t 
 We cannot flatter ourselves that the antipsoric medicine given 
 was rightly selected, or that it will forward the cure of a chronic dis- 
 ease, if it quickl}^ and entirely destro3^s as if by a stroke of magic 
 the most troublesome symptoms, old, great, continuous pains, tonic 
 
 great. During this daily taking of a powder, following the numbers, it will be a 
 great benefit to the poor patient who is often intimidated by slanderers of the 
 better medical art, if he does not know whether there is a dose of medicine in 
 every powder, nor again, in which one of them ? If he knew the latter, and 
 should know, that to-day's number contains the medicine of which he expects 
 so much, his fancy would often play him an evil trick, and he would imagine 
 that he feels sensations and changes in his body, which do not exist; he would 
 note imaginar}^ symptoms and live in a continual inquietude of mind; but if he 
 daily takes a dose, and daily notices no evil assault on his health, he becomes 
 more equable in disposition (being taught by experience), expects no 
 ill effects, and will then quietly note the changes in his state which are actu- 
 ally present, and therefore can only report the truth to his physician. On 
 this account it is best that he should dailj^ take his powder, without know- 
 ing whether there is medicine in all or in a certain powder; thus he will 
 not expect more from to-day's powder than from yesterday's or that of the day 
 before. 
 
 " Chronic patients who firmly trust in the honesty and skill of their phy- 
 sician will be satisfied, without any after thoughts, to receive such a dose of 
 sugar of milk every two, four or seven days, according to the disposition of 
 each, and nevertheless retain a firm confidence, as, indeed, is only just and 
 reasonable. 
 
 t There were some anxious purists, who were afraid that even the pure 
 sugar of milk, either in itself or changed by long trituration, might have medici- 
 nal effects. But this is a vain, utterly unfounded fear, as I have determined by 
 very exact experiments. We may use the crude, pure sugar of milk as a food, 
 and partake of considerable quantities of it, without any change in the health, 
 and so also the triturated sugar. But to destroy at the same time the fear to 
 which utterance has been given by some hypochondriacs, that through a long 
 trituration of the sugar of milk alone, or in the potentizing of medicines, some- 
 thing might nib off from the porcelain mortar (silica), which being potentized 
 by this same trituration would be bound to become strongly acting Silicea( ^ ), 
 I took a new porcelain triturating bowl in which the glazing had been rubbed 
 off, with a new porcelain pestle, and had one hundred grains of pure sugar of 
 milk, divided into portions of thirty-three grains, triturated eighteen times for 
 six minutes at a time and as frequently scraped for four minutes with a porce- 
 lain spatula, in order to develop by this three hours' strong trituration a 
 medicinal power either of the sugar of milk or of the silica or of both; but my 
 preparation remained as indifferent and unmedicinal as the crude, merely nutri- 
 tive sugar of milk, of which I convinced myself by experiments on very sensi- 
 tive persons. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASKvS. 131 
 
 or clonic spasms, etc., so that the patient almost immediately after 
 taking the medicine, fancies himself as much freed from sufferings 
 as if he were already restored, and as if in heav^en. This deceptive 
 effect shows that the medicine here acts enantiopathically as an op- 
 posite or palliative, and that in the days following we cannot expect 
 anything from this remedy but an aggravation of the original dis- 
 ease. As soon then as this deceptive improvement within a few 
 days begins again to turn to aggravation, it is high time to give 
 either the antidote to this medicine, or, when this cannot be had, a 
 medicine which is homoeopathically more appropriate. Very rarely 
 will such an enantiopathic remedy do any good in the future. If 
 the medicine which is thus antipathic at once in the beginning, i. e.y 
 which seemed so to alleviate, is inclined to reciprocal action, it is 
 possible that when the aggravation from this dose takes place, a 
 second dose of the same remedy may produce the contrary, and thus 
 bring about a lasting improvement, as I have at least perceived in 
 Ignatia. 
 
 In such cases we may also successfully use, for the ailments follow- 
 ing after a few days from such an antipathic remedy, one of the 
 remaining medicines from the considerable store laid down in Materia 
 Medica Piira, in the ''Archiv der homoeopathiscJiefi Heilkujisf or in 
 the ''Annalen. " This may be done for a few days until the Psora- 
 disease returns to its customary routine course, when a homoeopathic- 
 ally selected antipsoric medicine is to be given to continue the cure. 
 
 Among the mishaps which disturb the treatment only in a tem- 
 porary way, I enumerate: overloading the stomach (this may be 
 remedied by hunger, i. e. , by only taking a little thin soup instead 
 of the meal and a little coffee); disorder of the stomach from fat 
 meat, especially from eating pork (to be cured by fasting 2,nA Pulsa- 
 tilla) ; a disorder of the stomach which causes rising from the stomach 
 after eating and especially nausea and inclination to vomit (b}^ highly 
 potentized antimoniimi crudtwi); taking cold in the stomach b}' 
 eating fruit (by smelling of arsenicuni)\ troubles from spirituous 
 liquors {iiux vomica); disorder of the stomach with gastric fever, 
 chilliness and cold {bryoiiia alba)\ fright (when the medicine can be 
 given at once, and especially when the fright causes timidit>-, bv 
 poppy-juice {opium) ; but if aid can onl}^ be rendered later, or when 
 vexation is joined with the fright, b}" aconite ; but if sadness is caused 
 by the fright, ignatia seeds); vexation which causes anger, violence, 
 heat, irritation, by chamomilla, (but if beside the vexation there is 
 chilliness and coldness of the body, by biyouia'); vexation with in- 
 dignation, deep internal mortification (attended with throwing away 
 what was held in the hand, b}^ stapliisagyia)\ indignation with silent 
 
132 
 
 HAHNEMAXX'S CHROXIC DISEASES. 
 
 internal mortification (hy colocy7ithis)\ unsuccessful love with quiet 
 grief (b}' ignatia)\ unhappy love with jealousy (by hyoscy amies); a 
 severe cold (next to keeping the house or the bed) by Jiiix vomica; 
 when diarrhoea resulted, by dulcamara ; or if followed by pains, coffea 
 criida ; or if followed by fever and heat, by aconite; a cold which is 
 followed by suffocative fits, (by ipecacua7iha)\ colds followed by pains 
 and an inchnation to weep, Q^y coffea criida); cold with consequent 
 coryza and loss of the sense of smell and of taste, (hy Pulsatilla) ; over- 
 lifting or strains (sometimes by arnica, but most certainly by rhus 
 toxicodendron) ; contusions and wounds inflicted b^' blunt instruments, 
 (by ar?iica)\ burning of the skin (by compresses of water mixed 
 with a dilution of highly potentized arsenicum, or uninterruped ap- 
 plication for hours of alcohol heated by means of very hot water) ; 
 weakness from loss of fluids and blood, (b}- china) : homesickness 
 with redness of the cheeks, (b}' capsicum). 
 
 But during the treatment of chronic diseases by antipsoric remedies 
 we often need the other non-antipsoric store of medicines in cases 
 where epidemic diseases or intermediate diseases {inorbi intercur- 
 7'entes) arising usualh' from meteoric and telluric causes attack our 
 chronic patients, and so not only temporarily disturb the treatment, 
 but even interrupt it for a longer time. Here the other homoeo- 
 pathic remedies will have to be used, wherefore I shall not enter 
 upon this here, except to sa}' that the antipsoric treatment will have 
 for the time to be totalh^ discontinued, so long as the treatment of 
 the epidemic disease which has also seized our (chronic) patient may 
 last, even if a few weeks in the worst cases ma}* thus be lost. But 
 here also, if the disease is not too severe, the above mentioned method 
 of applying the medicine by smelling a moistened pellet is often suf- 
 ficient to help, and the cure of the acute disease ma^' thus be ex- 
 traordinarih* shortened. 
 
 The intelligent homoeopathic ph3*sician will soon note the point of 
 time when his remedies have completed the cure of the epidemic in- 
 termediate disease "^ and when the peculiar course of the chronic 
 (psoric) malad}' is continued. 
 
 * Usually these epidemic intermediate diseases appear in the form of a fever 
 ( if they are not the permanent miasms, small-pox, measles, dysentery-, whoop- 
 ing cough, etc.). There are fevers of various kinds, a continuous acute fever, 
 or a slow remittent, or an intermittent fever. Intermittent fevers appear almost 
 ever}- year in a somewhat changed form. Since I have learned to cure chronic 
 diseases and maladies by a homoeopathic extirpation of their psoric source, I 
 have found the epidemicalh- current intermittent fevers almost every year differ- 
 ent in their character and in their symptoms, and they therefore require almost 
 every year a different medicine for their specific cure. One vear they re- 
 quire arsenicum, another belladonna, another antimonium crudum, or spigelia, 
 aconite, with ipecacuanha, alternating with nux vomica, sal ammoniacum. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 1 33 
 
 The symptoms of the original chronic disease will, however, 
 always be found somewhat varied after the cure of such a prevailing- 
 intermediate disease. Also another part of the body will be found 
 suffering, so that the homoeopathic physician will choose his anti- 
 psoric remedy according to the totality of the remaining symptoms, 
 and not simply give the one he intended to give before the interme- 
 diate disease appeared. 
 
 When the physician is called to treat such a prevalent disease in 
 a patient whom he had not before attended as a chronic patient 
 he will not unfrequently find, especially if the fevei was con- 
 siderable, that after overcoming it by the remedies which had been 
 homoeopathically specific with other patients of this kind, the full 
 restoration to health does not follow even with good diet and 
 mode of living: but incidents of another kind will show themselves 
 (usually called after-pains or secondary diseases) and these will 
 gradually be aggravated and threaten to become chronic. Here the 
 homoeopathic physician will nearly always have to meet a psora 
 which is developing into a chronic disease, and this will have to be 
 cured according to the principles here laid down. 
 
 Here is a fitting opportunity to note that the great epidemic 
 diseases: smallpox, measles, purple rash, scarlet fever, whooping 
 cough, fall dysentery and typhoid, when they complete their course 
 
 natrum muriaticum, opium, cina, alone or in alternation with capsicum, or cap- 
 sicum alone, menyanthes trifoliata, calcarea carbonica, pulsatilla, one of the 
 two carbos, arnica, alone or in alternation with ipecacuanha, and with these 
 they were cured in a few days. I would not, indeed, except any one of the non- 
 antipsoric medicines, if they are only homoeopathic to the whole complex of 
 the symptoms of the prevailing fever, in its attack as well as in its apyrexia [ see 
 TJon Bcenninghaiisen, Versuch e. hom. Therapie d. Wechselfiebers, 1833, Muens- 
 ter), but I would almost always except cinchona; for this can only suppress its 
 type in many large doses in a concentrated form (as quinine), and then it 
 changes it into a cachexy of quinine, which it is difficult to cure. {China is 
 only appropriate to the endemic intermittent fever in marshy regions, and even 
 this can only be rightly cured by it in connection with antipsoric remedies.) 
 Even at the beginning of the treatment of an epidemic intermittent fever, the 
 homoeopathic physician is most safe in giving ever}- time an attenuated dose of 
 sulphur or in appropriate cases, liepar sulpliuris in a fine little pellet or by 
 means of smelling, and in waiting its effects for a few days, until the improve- 
 ment resulting from it ceases, and then only he will give, in one or two attenu- 
 ated doses, the non-antipsoric medicine w^hich has been found homoeopathically 
 appropriate to the epidemy of this year. These doses should however only be 
 given at the end of an attack. With all patients in intermittent fever, fsora is 
 essentially involved in every epidemy, therefore an attenuated dose of sulphur 
 or of hepar sulphuris is necessary at the beginning of every treatment of epi- 
 demic intermittent fever, and makes the restoration of the ]->alienl more sure 
 and easy. 
 
134 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 especial!}^ without a judicious homoeopathic treatment, leave the 
 organism so shaken and irritated, that with many who seem restored, 
 the psora which was before slumbering and latent now awakes 
 ■quickl}^, either into itch-like eruptions ^ or into other chronic dis- 
 orders, which then reach a high degree in a short time, if they are 
 not treated properly in an antipsoric manner. This is due to the 
 great exhaustion of the organism which still prevails. The allo- 
 pathic phj'sician, when such a patient, as is frequently' the case, 
 dies after all his unsuitable treatment, declares that he has died from 
 the sequelcB of whooping cough, measles, etc. 
 
 These sequelcE are, however, the innumerable chronic diseases in 
 numberless forms of developed psora which have hitherto been 
 unknown as to their origin and consequently remained uncured. 
 
 Epidemic and sporadic fevers, therefore, as well as the miasmatic 
 acute diseases, if they do not soon terminate and pass directly 
 over into good health, (even when the epidemic and acute mias- 
 matic part has found a homoeopathic specific which has been rightly 
 used against them), often need an antipsoric assistance, which I have 
 usually found in sulphur, if the patient had not used shortl}' before 
 a medicine containing sulphur, in which case another antipsoric 
 suitable to this particular case will have to be used. 
 
 Endemic diseases, with their striking pertinacity, depend almost 
 wholly on a psoric complication, or on psora modified b}' the peculi- 
 arity of the nature of the locality (and the especial mode of life of 
 the inhabitants), so that, e. g., in intermittent fever originating in a 
 marshy region, the patients, even after removal into a dry region, 
 often remain uncured despite of all their use of china, unless the 
 antipsoric treatment is especially used. The exhalation from 
 swamps seems to be one of the strongest physical causes of the devel- 
 opment of the psora latent within with so man}' persons t and this 
 
 ^ When such an eruption appears in any quantity, it is called by writers 
 scabies spontanea (spontaneous itch) — a mere chimera and nonentit}-, for as far 
 as histon,' goes, no itch has arisen except from infection, and it cannot now 
 arise again of itself without infection with the miasma of itch. But this phe- 
 nomenon after acute fever is nothing else than the secondary eruption so often 
 mentioned above springing from the slumbering and latent psora remaining 
 within after the repression (or more rarely the gradual disappearance) from the 
 skin of the original eruption of itch. This eruption frequently leaves the skin 
 of itself and it has never been proved that it infected any other person wdth the 
 itch. 
 
 t Presumably these exhalations possess a quality which as it \n ere paralyzes 
 the vital force of the organism (which in an ordinary state of health is able to 
 keep down the internal psora which always endeavors to manifest itself) and 
 thus predisposes to putrid and ner^'ous fevers. 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISKASE.S. 1 35 
 
 most of all in hot countries. Without an almost regular use of the 
 best antipsoric method of cure, we shall never succeed in removing 
 the murderous qualities of humid climates and changing them into 
 passabl}^ healthy, habitable regions. Man may accustom himself to 
 the extreme degrees of atmospheric heat, as well as to the most vio- 
 lent cold, and can live joyous and health}^ in both extremes, Why 
 should he not be able to accustom himself to marshy regions just as 
 well as to the driest mountain regions, if there were not a hitherto 
 undiscovered and unconquered enemy of vigorous life and lasting 
 bealth, lying in ambush in marshy regions, i. e. , psora ? Wherever, 
 psora lies latent within (and how frequently is this the case ?) it is 
 developed into chronic diseases of ever}^ kind, especially those in 
 which the liver is most affected, through stagnant water and the 
 gases that emanate from damp soil and from swamps; and this is 
 effected more surely, yea, u7iavoidably hy these causes than by any 
 other physical power injurious to health. 
 
 The latest symptoms that have been added to a chronic disease 
 which has been left to itself (and thus has not been aggravated by 
 medical mismanagement) are always the first to yield in an anti- 
 psoric treatment; but the oldest ailments and those w^hich have been 
 most constant and unchanged, among which are the constant local 
 ailments, are the last to give way; and this is only effected, when all 
 the remaining disorders have disappeared and the health has been in 
 all other respects almost totall}^ restored. In the general maladies 
 which come in repeated attacks, e. g. the periodic kinds of hysteria, 
 and different kinds of epilepsy, etc., the attacks ma}^ quickly be 
 made to cease by a suitable antipsoric; but to make this cessation 
 reliable and lasting, the whole indwelling psora must be completely 
 cured. 
 
 The frequent request of a patient to have one symptom, which 
 above others is troublesome to him, removed first of all, is impracti- 
 cable, but the ignorant patient should be excused for his request. 
 
 In the daily wTitten report during the use of an antipsoric medi- 
 cine, the patient who lives at a distance should underscore once, for 
 the information of the physician, those incident symptoms during 
 the day, which after a considerable time or a long time he has now 
 felt again for the first time; but those which he never had before and 
 which he first felt on that da}^, he should underscore tivice. The 
 former symptoms indicate that the antipsoric has taken hold o{ the 
 root of the evil, and will do nuicli for its thorough cure. InU tlie 
 latter, if the}- appear more frequently and more strongly, give the

 phj'sician a hint that the antipsoric was not selected quite homoeo- 
 pathicalh', and should be interrupted in time and replaced b}' a 
 more appropriate one. 
 
 When the treatment is about half completed, the diminished dis~ 
 ease commences to return into the state of a latent psora; the symp- 
 toms grow weaker and weaker, and at last the attentive physician 
 will only find traces of it; but he must follow these to their complete 
 disappearance, for the smallest remnant retains a germ for a renewal 
 of the old ailment.^ If the ph3^sician should here give up the treat- 
 ment and suppose what the common man (and also the higher class 
 of the non-medical public) is apt to sa}^ : "It will now likely get right 
 of itself," a great mistake would be made; for in time there w^ould 
 develop, (especially when any important untow^ard events take place), 
 out of this little remnant of this only diminished psora, a new chronic 
 disease which gradually would increase unavoidabl3^ according to 
 the nature of diseases springing from unextinguished chronic miasms 
 as shown above. 
 
 The cito, tuto et jucimde (quickly, safeh^ and pleasantly) of 
 Celsus, the patient may reasonably ask from his physician, and from 
 the homoeopath he can rightly expect this in acute diseases springing 
 from occasional causes, as well as in the well-defined intermediate 
 diseases prevalent at times (the so-called intercurrent diseases) . 
 
 But with especial regard to the "Cito" (quickh^, z. e., the 
 hastening of the cure, the nature of the case forbids it, at least in 
 inveterate chronic ailments, f 
 
 The cure of great chronic diseases of ten, twenty, thirty and more 
 years' standing {if they have not been mismanaged by an excess of 
 allopathic trcatmeiits, or indeed, as is often the case, mismanaged into 
 incur ablejiess) may be said to be quickly annihilated if this is done 
 in one or two 3^ears. If ^^ath younger, robust persons this takes 
 place in one-half the time, then on the other hand in advanced age, 
 even with the best treatment on the part of the physician and the 
 most punctual observance of rules on the part of the patient and his 
 attendants, considerable time must be added to the usual period of 
 the cure. It will also be found intelHgible that such a long-continued

 (^psoric) chronic disease, the original miasm of which has had so much 
 time and opportunity in a long life to insert its parasitical roots as it 
 were, into all the joints of the tender edifice of life, is at last so inti- 
 matel}^ interwoven with the organism that even with the most appro- 
 priate medical treatment, careful mode of life and observance of rules 
 on the part of the patient, great patience and sufficient time will be" 
 required to destroy this many armed polypus in all its parts, while 
 sparing the independence of the organism and its powers. 
 
 The strength of a patient under an antipsoric treatment, even if 
 it should be continued ever so long, ought continually to increase 
 from the very commencement of the correct treatment even to the 
 restoration of health and of the normal state. The strength increases 
 during the whole of the cure without the use of the so-called tonics, 
 and the patients joyously rise up again of themselves in proportion 
 as their life is delivered from its corroding enemy.* 
 
 The best time for taking a dose of antipsoric medicine seems to 
 be, not an hour before going to bed but, rather, early in the morning 
 while fasting. The medicine in the numbered paper f (as also all 
 that succeed) if it is desired that it should act but feebly, should be 
 taken dry and allowed to dissolve on the tongue, or be moistened 
 with two or three drops of water on a spoon, and by itself, without in 
 either case drinking anything after it or eating anything within half 
 an hour or a whole hour. J 
 
 After taking the medicine the patient should keep perfectly quiet 
 at least a full hour, but without going to sleep (sleep delays the be- 
 
 "^ It is inconceivable how allopathic physicians could think of curing chronic 
 diseases through a continuance of exhausting and debilitating treatments, with- 
 out being restrained by their lack of success from repeating continually their 
 perverse treatment. The aniara which they ^ive between, together with the 
 quinine, without being able to supply the strength lost, only add new evils. 
 
 t Numbering the powders continuously has the convenience that the phy- 
 sician when the patients render their daily report (especially those living at a 
 distance) putting first the date and the number of the powder taken that day, 
 can recognize the day when the patient took his medicine, and can judge of the 
 progress of its action according to the report of the following day. 
 
 X If the medicine is to act more strongly it must be stirred in a little more 
 water until dissolved before taking it, and in still more water if it is to act still 
 more strongly, and the physician should order the solution taken a portion at 
 a time. If he orders the solution taken in one or three days it must be stirred 
 up not only the first time, but also the other two times, by which every part 
 thus stirred acquires another somewhat higher degree of potency, and so is 
 received more willin<^ly by the vital force. To direct the use of the same solu- 
 tion for a greater number of days is not advisable, as the water, kept longer, 
 would begin to putrefy. How a dose for smellinj;- may be adapted to all de- 
 grees of strength, I have mentioned above.

 ginning of the action of the medicine). He must avoid during this 
 hour, as indeed throughout the treatment, all disagreeable excite- 
 ment, nor should he strain his mind immediately after taking the 
 dose, in any way, either by reading or computing, by writing, or by 
 conversations requiring meditation. 
 
 The dose of antipsoric medicine must not be taken by females 
 shortly before their menses are expected, nor during their flow; but 
 the dose can be given, if necessary, four days, /. e., about ninety-six 
 hours after the menses have set in. But in case the menses previously 
 have been premature or too profuse, or two long-lasting, it is often 
 necessary to give on this fourth day a small dose of 7iux vomica (one 
 very small pellet, moistened with a high dynamization) to be smelled, 
 and then, on the fourth or sixth day following, the antipsoric. But 
 if the female is very sensitive and nervous, she ought, until she comes 
 near her full restoration, to smell such a pellet once about every time 
 seventy-two hours after the beginning of her menses, notwithstand- 
 ing her continued antipsoric treatment. ^^ 
 
 Pregnancy in all its stages offers so little obstruction to the anti- 
 psoric treatment, that this treatment is often most necessary and use- 
 ful in that condition.! Most necessary, because the chronic ailments 
 then are more developed. In this state of woman, which is quite a 
 natural one, the symptoms of the internal psora are often manifested 
 most plainly % on account of the increased sensitiveness of the female 
 
 * In such a morbid state of the menses nothing can be done in the cure of 
 chronic diseases without the intermediate use of Nux vomica, which here specific- 
 ally reduces to order the disharmony arising in the functions of the nerves 
 from so disorderly a flow of the menses, and so quiets this excessive sensitive- 
 ness and irritability, which put an insurmountable obstacle in the way of the 
 curative action of the antipsoric remedies. 
 
 fin what more certain way could, e. g., the return of miscarriage, which is 
 almost exclusively due to psora, be prevented, and, indeed, be lastingly pre- 
 vented, than through a judicious antipsoric treatment before or at least during 
 pregnancy? In what more reliable way could the states of the womb, which 
 are not infrequently dangerous, and sometimss fatal even in a proper presenta- 
 tion of the foetus and in a natural labor, be removed in advance than by a 
 timely antipsoric treatment during pregnancy ? Even the improper presenta- 
 tion of the child has, if not always, still very often its only cause in the psoric 
 sickliness of the mother, and the hydrocephalus and other bodily defects of the 
 child have surely this cause! Only the antipsoric treatment of the sickly wife 
 if not before, at least during pregnancy, can remove in advance the mother's 
 inability for suckling, as also in suckling prevent the frequent sore breasts, the 
 soreness of the nipples, the frequent inclination to erysipelatous inflammations 
 of the breasts and their abscesses, as well the hemorrhages of the uterus during 
 suckling. 
 
 X Nevertheless, the entire opposite frequently takes place, so that the wife 
 who before pregnancy was always sickly, and uninterruptedly complaining,

 body and spirit while in this state; the antipsoric medicine therefore 
 acts more definitely and perceptibly during pregnancy, which gives 
 the hint to the physician to make the doses in these cases as small 
 and in as highly- potentized attenuations as possible, and to make his 
 selections in the most homoeopathic manner. 
 
 Sucklings never receive medicine; the mother or wet-nurse 
 receives the remed}^ instead, and through their milk it acts on the 
 child very quickly, mildl}^ and beneficialh^ 
 
 The corporeal nature (called the life-preserving principle or vital 
 force) when left to itself, since it is without reason, cannot provide 
 anj^thing better than palliatives in chronic diseases and in the acute 
 diseases springing thence which cause sudden danger to life, owing 
 to the indwelling psora. These are the causes of the more frequent 
 secretions and excretions of various kinds taking place of themselves 
 now and then in chronic (psoric) diseases, as e. g. , diarrhoeas, vom- 
 iting, perspiration, suppurations, hemorrhages, etc. All these are 
 attended with only temporary alleviations of the chronic original 
 malady, which owing to the losses of humors and of strength thereby 
 only becomes more and more aggravated. 
 
 Allopathy has, so far, not been able to do any more than this 
 toward a genuine cure of the chronic diseases; it could only imitate 
 the unreason in corporeal nature in its palliatives (usually without 
 an equal alleviation and with a greater sacrifice of strength). It 
 caused therefore, more than the other, a hastening of the general 
 ruin, without being able to contribute anything to the extinction of 
 the original malady. To this class belong all the many, indescrib- 
 able purgatives, the so-called dissolvents, the venesection, cupping, 
 the applying of leeches now so insanely frequent, the sudorifics, the 
 artificial sores, setons, fontanels, exutories, etc. 
 
 God be praised, the homoeopathic physician who is acquainted 
 with the means of a radical cure, and who thus through the anti- 
 psoric treatment can destroy the chronic disease itself, has so little 
 need of the above mentioned applications, which onl}- hasten dissolu- 
 tion, that he has on the contrary to use all care that the patient 
 may not secretly UvSe some of these appliances, following the old 
 routine, diffused over the whole earth by allopathy. He can never 
 yield to the request of the patient, e. g., that he has become ac- 
 customed to being bled so and so many times a year, or to be cupped, 
 
 feels in unusual good health during every pregnancy and only durini,v this state. 
 And with such cases this time of pregnancy may very well be made use of for 
 antipsoric treatment, which in such a case is directed against the symptoms o{ 
 the morbid state before pregnancy, so far as this can be remembered. 
 
140 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 or to use purgatives or warm baths, and that he therefore needs 
 them. Such things cannot be permitted. 
 
 The homoeopathic physician who is a master of his art, and God be 
 praised! there is now a not inconsiderable number of such masters in 
 homoeopath}', never allows a drop of blood to be drawn from his. 
 patient; he never needs any such or similar means of weakening the 
 body, for such a course evermore remains the negation of curing. 
 Only journeymen, half homoeopaths still, I am sorr}^ to say, use 
 such a co7itradlctio in adjedo {weakening while desiring to cure).^ 
 
 Only in the one case, where, as in many chronic diseases, the 
 delay in passing evacuations causes great trouble, he will permit {in 
 the beginning of the treatment before the antipsoric medicine has had 
 the time [in its after-effects] to produce improvement in this point) 
 if the stool is not passed for three or four days, a cl3^ster of clean,, 
 lukewarm water without the least admixture, also perhaps a second,, 
 if an evacuation does not resHilt within a quarter of an hour. Rarely 
 a third injection will be needed, after waiting a third quarter of art 
 hour. This help which acts chiefly mechanically by expanding the 
 rectum, is harmless when repeated after three or four days if it is 
 necessary, and, as before mentioned, only at the beginning of the 
 treatment — for the antipsoric medicines, among which in this respect 
 lycopodium next to sulphur has the pre-eminence, usuall}^ soon 
 remove this difficulty. 
 
 The inexcusable wasting fontanels the homoeopathic physician 
 must not at once suppress, if the patient has had them for some time 
 (often for many years), nor before the antipsoric treatment has 
 already made perceptible progress, but if they can be diminished 
 without totally stopping them, this may safely be done even in the 
 beginning of the treatment. 
 
 So also the physician should not at once discontinue the woolen 
 underclothing, which is said to prevent the taking of cold and the 
 recommendation of which is carried very far by the ordinary phy^ 
 sicians in default of any real assistance. Though they are a burden 
 to the patient, we should wait until there is a visible improvement 
 
 ^'"This may well be pardoned with journej-men and beginners; but when 
 they assume to boast of this noviceship and declare in public journals and books 
 that the incidental use of blood-letting and leeches is indispensable, yea, that 
 it is more essentially homoeopathic, they become ridiculous and are to be pitied 
 as tyros and as laboring under delusion; and their patients also are to be pitied. 
 Is it laziness or a haughty preference for their old (although ruinous) allopathic 
 routine, or is it lack of love for their fellowmen which prevents a deeper enter-^ 
 ing into true, beneficent Homoeopathy and an elevation into the troublesome 
 but correct and useful selection of the remedy homoeopathically specific in 
 every case, and into that mastery of Homoeopathy now no more rare ? 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 141 
 
 effected by the antipsorics which remove the tendency to taking 
 cold, and until the warmer season comes. With patients who are 
 very weakly, he should in the beginning change to cotton shirts 
 w^hich rub and heat the skin less, before requiring patients to put 
 linen underclothing on their skin. 
 
 For man}^ easily perceived reasons, but especially in order that 
 his delicate doses of medicine may not be interfered with in their 
 action, the homoeopathic physician can not in his antipsoric treat- 
 ment allow the intermediate use of any hitherto customary domestic 
 remedy, no perfumery of any kind, no fragrant extracts, no smelling- 
 salts, no Baldwin tea, or any other herb teas, no peppermint confec- 
 tion, no spiced confections or anise-sugar or stomach drops, or 
 liqueurs, no Iceland-moss, or spiced chocolate, no spice-drops, tooth- 
 tinctures or tooth-powders of the ordinary kinds, nor an}^ of the 
 other articles of luxur3\ 
 
 So-called warm and hot baths for the sake of cleanliness, to which 
 spoiled patients are usually very much attached, are not to be allowed, 
 as they never fail to disturb the health; nor are they needed, as a 
 quick washing of a part or of the whole of the body with lukewarm 
 soap- water full}^ serves the purpose without doing any injury. 
 
 At the end of these directions for treating chronic diseases, I 
 recommended, in the first edition, the lightest electric sparks as an 
 adjuvant for quickening parts that have been for a long time para- 
 lyzed and without sensation, these to be used besides the antipsoric 
 treatment. I am sorry for this advice, and take it back, as experience 
 has taught me, that this prescription has nowhere been followed 
 strictly, but that larger electric sparks have always been used to the 
 detriment of patients; and yet these larger sparks have been asserted 
 to be very small. I, therefore, now advise against this so easily 
 abused remedy, especially, as we can easily remove this appearance 
 •of enantiopathic assistance; for there is an efficient honuvopatliic local 
 assistance for paralyzed parts or such as are without sensation. This 
 is found in cold water* locally applied (at 54° Fahrenheit) from 
 mountain-springs and deep wells; either by pouring on these parts 
 for one, two or three minutes, or by douche-baths over the whole 
 body of one to five minutes duration, more rarely or more fre- 
 quently, even daily or oftener according to the circumstances, 
 together with the appropriate, internal, antipvSoric treatment, suffi- 
 cient exercise in the open air, and judicious diet. 
 
 ^ Water of this and a lower temperature has the primary power of depriv- 
 ing the parts of the living body partly of sensation antl partly of molion, in 
 such cases it therefore t^^ives local homreojiathic assistance. 
 
THK MKDICINES. 
 
 The medicines which have been found most suitable and excel- 
 lent in chronic diseases so far, I shall present in the following part 
 according to their pure action on the human body, as well those 
 used in the treatment of the diseases of psoric origin, as those used 
 in syphilis and in the figwart-disease. 
 
 That we need far fewer remedies to combat the latter than the 
 psora can not with any thinking man form an argument against the 
 chronic miasmatic nature of the latter and still less against the fact 
 that it is the common source of the other chronic diseases. 
 
 The psora, a most ancient miasmatic disease, in propagating itself 
 for many thousands of years through several millions of human 
 organisms, of which each one had its own peculiar constitution and 
 w^as exposed to very varied influences, was able to modify itself to 
 such a degree as to cause that incredible variety of ailments which 
 we see in the innumerable chronic patients, with whom the external 
 symptom (which acts vicariously for the internal malady), /. e. the 
 more or less extensive eruption of itch, has been driven away from 
 the skin by a fatal art, or in whom it has disappeared of itself from 
 the skin through some other violent incident. 
 
 Hence it seems to have come to pass that this half-spiritual 
 miasma, which like a parasite seeks to inroot its hostile life in the 
 human organism and to continue its life there, could develop itself in 
 so many ways in the many thousands of years, so that it has even 
 caused to spring forth and has born modified offshoots with charac- 
 teristic properties, which do not indeed deny their descent from 
 their stock (the common psora) but, nevertheless, differ from one 
 another considerably by some peculiarities. These changes are due 
 in some part to the varying physical peculiarities and climatic differ- 
 ences of the dwelling-places of men afflicted with the psora, ^ and 
 in part are moulded by their varying modes of life, e. g. children in 
 
 * K. g. the Sibbens or Rade-Syge commonly found in Norway and in tlie 
 northwest of Scotland; the Pellagra in Lombard}^; the plica poloiiica (Koltun, 
 Trichiasis) in Poland and Carinthia, the tumorous leprosy in Surinam; the 
 raspberry-like excrescences (Frambosia) in Guinea called _)'<? a '\ and in America 
 piaii ; the exhaustive fever in Hungary called Tsouior, the exhausting makul\- 
 of Virginia {asthenia VirgineusiiiDi^, the human degeneration in the tleo]-* 
 Alpine villages called cretin^ the goihr in the deep valleys iuul at their 
 entrances, etc. 
 
144 HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 the corrupt city air develop rhachitis, spiiia ventosa, softening of the 
 bones, ciwvatures. cancer of the bones, tiyiea capitis, scrofula, ring- 
 worm; adults exhibit nervous debility, nervous irritabilit}^, gout of 
 the joints, etc. And so also the other great varieties in the mode of 
 living and in the occupations of men with their inherited bodil}- con- 
 stitutions give to the psoric diseases so many modifications, that it 
 ma3^ easih' be understood, that more numerous and more varied 
 remedies are needed for the extirpation of all these modifications of 
 the psora (antipsoric remedies). 
 
 I have often been asked b}" what signs a substance may before- 
 hand be recognized as antipsoric ? But there can be no such external 
 ^nsible marks in them; nevertheless while proving several powerful 
 substances as to their pure effects on the health}^ bod}-', several of 
 them by the complaints the^^ caused showed me their extraordinary 
 and manifest suitableness for homoeopathic aid in the symptoms of 
 clearly defined psoric diseases. Some traces of their qualities lead- 
 ing in this direction gave me in advance some hint as to their 
 probable usefulness; e. g. the efficacy of the herb Lycopodium, much 
 praised in Poland for the plica polonica pointed me to the use of the 
 pollen of lycopodium in similar psoric ailments. The circumstance 
 that some hemorrhages have been arrested b}^ large doses of salt was 
 another hint. So was the usefulness of Guaiacum, Sarsaparilla and 
 Mezereum, even in ancient times where venereal diseases could not 
 be healed bj^ an}- amount of mercur}^ unless one or the other of these 
 herbs had first removed the psora complicated with it. 
 
 As a rule it was developed from their pure symptoms, that most 
 of the earths, alkalies and acids, as well as the neutral salts com- 
 posed of them, together with several of the metals cannot be dis- 
 pensed with in curing the almost innumerable sjmiptoms of psora. 
 The similarity in nature of the leading antipsoric, sulphur, to phos- 
 phorus and other combustible substances from the vegetable and the 
 mineral kingdoms led to the use of the latter, and some animal 
 substances natural^ followed them b}^ analogy, in agreement with 
 experience. 
 
 Still only those remedies have been acknowledged as antipsoric 
 whose pure effects on the human health gave a clear indication of 
 their homoeopathic use in diseases manifestly psoric, confessedly due 
 to infection; so that, with an enlargement of our knowledge of their 
 proper, pure medicinal effects, in time it may be found necessary to 
 include some of our other medicines among the antipsoric remedies; 
 although even now we can with certainty cure, with the anti- 
 psorics now recognized, nearly all non- venereal (psoric) chronic 
 diseases, if the patients have not been loaded down and spoiled 
 
HAHNKMANN S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 1 45 
 
 through allopathic mismanagement with severe medicine-diseases, 
 and when their vital force has not been depressed too low, or 
 very unfavorable external circumstances make the cure impossible. 
 Nevertheless, it need not be specially stated that iihe other proved, 
 homoeopathic medicines, not excepting mercury, cannot be dis- 
 pensed with in certain states of the psoric diseases. 
 
 Homoeopathy, b}^ a certain treatment of the crude medicinal sub- 
 stances, which had not been invented before its foundation and 
 development, advances them into the state of progressive and high 
 development of their indwelling forces, in order that it may then use 
 them in curing in the most perfect manner. Some of these medi- 
 cines in their crude state seem to have a very imperfect, insignificant 
 medicinal action (^. g. common salt and the pollen of lycopodium). 
 Others (^. g. gold, quartz, alumina) seem to have none at all, but all 
 of them become highly curative by the preparation peculiar to 
 Homoeopathy. Other substances, on the other hand, in their crude 
 state are, even in the smallest quantities, so violent in their effects 
 that if they touch the animal fibre, they act upon it in a corroding 
 and destructive manner {e. g. arsenic and corrosive sublimate) and 
 these medicines are rendered by the same preparation peculiar to 
 Homoeopathy not only mild in their effects, but also incredibly devel- 
 oped in their medicinal powers. 
 
 The changes which take place in material substances, especially 
 in medicinal ones, through long-continued trituration with a non- 
 medicinal powder, or when dissolved, through a long-continued shak- 
 ing with a non-medicinal fluid, are so incredible, that they approach 
 the miraculous, and it is a cause of joy that the discovery of these 
 wonderful changes belongs to Homoeopathy. 
 
 Not only, as shown elsewhere, do these medicinal substances 
 thereby develop their powers in a prodigious degree, but they also 
 change their physico-chemical demeanor in such a wa}^, that if no 
 one before could ever perceive in their crude form an^^ solubility in 
 alcohol or water, after this peculiar transmutation they become 
 wholly soluble in water as well as in alcohol — a discover}' in^^aluable 
 to the healing art. 
 
 The brown-black juice of the marine animal Sepia, which was 
 formerly onl}^ used for drawing and painting, is in its crude state 
 soluble only in water, not in alcohol; but by such a trituration it 
 becomes soluble also in alcohol. 
 
 The yellow Petroleum only allows something to be extracted 
 from it through alcohol when it is adulterated with ethereal \-ege-

146 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISBASKS. 
 
 table oil; but in its pure state while crude it is soluble neither in 
 water nor in alcohol (nor in ether). By trituration it becomes solu- 
 ble in both substances. 
 
 So also the pollen of lycopodiiim floats on alcohol and on water, 
 without either of them showing any action upon it — the crude lyco- 
 podium is tasteless and inactive when it enters the human stomach; 
 but when changed in a similar manner through trituration it is not 
 only perfectly soluble in either fluid, but has also developed such 
 extraordinary medicinal powers, that great care must be taken in its 
 medicinal use. 
 
 Who ever found marble or oyster-shells soluble in pure water or 
 in alcohol ? But this mild lime becomes perfectly soluble in either, 
 by means of this mode of preparation; the same is the case with 
 baryta and magnesia and these substances then exhibit astonishing 
 medicinal powers. 
 
 Least of all will anyone ascribe solubility in water and alcohol to 
 quartz, to rock-crystal (many crystals of which have contained 
 enclosed in them drops of water for thousands of years un- 
 changed), or to sand; nor would any one ascribe to them medicinal 
 power, and yet by the dynamization (potentizing)* peculiar to Hom- 
 oeopathy, by melting silica with an alkaline salt, and then precipitat- 
 ing it from this glass, it not only becomes soluble without any 
 residuum in water and in alcohol, but also then shows prodigious 
 medicinal powers. 
 
 What can I say of the pure metals and of their sulphurets, but 
 that all of them, without any exception become by this treatment 
 equally soluble in water and in alcohol, and every one of them 
 develops the medicinal virtue pecuHar to it in the purest, simplest 
 manner and in an incredibly high degree ? 
 
 But the chemical medicinal substances thus prepared now also 
 stand above the chemical laws. 
 
 A dose of phosphorus, potentized highly in a similar manner, may 
 lie in its paper envelope in the desk, and, nevertheless, when taken 
 after a whole year's interval, it will still show its full medicinal 
 power; not that of phosphoric acid, but that of the unchanged, un- 
 combined phosphorus itself. So that no neutralization takes place in 
 this its elevated, and as it were, glorified state.

 not seem to allow a development of their medicinal powers by trituration and 
 therefore it is that the triturating of various medicines with the indifFerent sugar 
 of milk in the porcelain triturating bowl seems to impart to them no admix- 
 ture of silicea as some anxious purists have vainly feared.

 bonicum, of baryta, of lime, and of magnesia, in this highly potentized 
 state, when a dose of one of them has been taken, is not neutraHzed 
 like basic substances taken in a crude form by a drop of vinegar 
 taken afterwards; their medicinal effect being neither changed nor de- 
 stroyed. 
 
 Nitric acid when thus given in its highl^^ potentized state in 
 which it is serviceable for homoeopathic medicinal use, is not changed 
 by a little crude lime or crude soda given after it, as to its strong 
 well defined medicinal action; therefore it is not neutralized. 
 
 In this prepai'ation, peculiar to Homoeopathy, we take one grain

 ate of lime, carbonate of soda and sal ammoniac, carbonate of mag- 
 nesia, vegetable charcoal, animal charcoal, graphites, sulphur, crude 
 antimony, metallic antimony, gold, platina, iron, zinc, copper, silver, 
 tin. The lumps of the metals which have not yet been beaten out into 
 foil, are rubbed off on a fine, hard whetstone under water, some of 
 them, as iron, under alcohol; of mercury in the liquid form one grain 
 is taken, of petroleum one drop instead of a grain, etc. This is first 
 put on about one-third of 100 grains of pulverized sugar of milk, and 
 
 * Vegetable substances which can only be procured dry, e. g., cinchona 
 bark, ipecacuanha, etc., are prepared by the same kind of trituration and will 
 completely dissolve when potentized a million fold, not less, with their peculiar 
 powers, in water and alcohol, and may then be preserved as medicines far more 
 easily than the easily spoiled alcoholic tinctures. Of the juiceless vegetable 
 substances, such as oleander, thuja, the bark of mezereum, etc. , we may, with- 
 out making a mistake, take of each about one and a half grains of the fresh 
 leaves, bark, root, etc., without any further preparation, and triturate the same 
 three times with 100 grains of sugar of milk to the millionfold powder tritura- 
 tion. A grain of this dissolved in alcohol and water may be developed in the 
 diluting vials with alcohol to the necessary degree of potency of their powers 
 by giving for each potency two succussive strokes. Also with the freslil}- ex- 
 pressed juices of the herbs it is best to at once put one drop of the same with as 
 much sugar of milk as is taken for the preparation of the other medicines, so as 
 to triturate it to the millionfold powder attenuation, and then a grain of this 
 attenuation is dissolved in equal parts of water and alcohol, and must be potent- 
 ized to a further dynamization through the twenty-seven diluting vials by means 
 of two succussive strokes. The fresh juices thus seem to acquire more of dynami- 
 zation, as experience teaches me, than when the juice without any preparation 
 by triturating is merely diluted in thirty vials of alcohol and potentized each 
 time with two succussive strokes. 
 
 t Even phosphorus which is so easily oxidized by exposure to the air is 
 potentized in a similar manner, and thus rendered soluble in these two liquids, 
 and is thus prepared as a homoeopathic medicine; but in this case some precau- 
 tions are used, which will be found below. 
 
148 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 placed in an unglazed porcelain mortar, or in one from which the 
 glaze has been first rubbed off with wet sand; the medicine and the 
 sugar of milk are then mixed for a moment with a porcelain spatula, 
 and the mixture is triturated with some force for six minutes, the 
 triturated substance is then for four minutes scraped from the mortar 
 and from the porcelain pestle,^ which is also unglazed, or has had its 
 glazing rubbed off with wet sand, so that the trituration maj^ be 
 homogeniously mixed. After this has been thus scraped together, it 
 is triturated again without any addition for another six minutes with 
 equal force. After scraping together again from the bottom and the 
 sides for four minutes this triturate (for which the first third of the 
 100 grains had been used), the second third of the sugar of milk is 
 now added, both are mixed together with the spatula for a moment, 
 triturated again with like force for six minutes; then having again 
 scraped the triturate for four minutes, it is triturated a second time 
 (without addition) for six minutes more, and after scraping it together 
 for another four minutes it is mixed with the last third of the pow- 
 dered sugar of milk by stirring it around with the spatula, and then 
 the whole mixture is again triturated for six minutes, scraped for 
 four minutes, and a second and last time triturated for six minutes; 
 then it is all scraped together and the powder is preserved in a well- 
 stoppered bottle with the name of the substance and the signature 
 100 because it is potentized one hundred fold.f 
 
 *That after the completion of every three hours' trituration of a medicinal 
 substance, the mortar, pestle and spatula are to be several times scalded with 
 boiling water, being after every scalding wiped quite dry and clean, I presup- 
 pose as indispensable, so that no idea of spoiling any medicine that may be 
 triturated in it in future may be entertained. If the further precaution is used 
 of exposing mortar, pestle and spatula to a heat approaching red heat, this will 
 dissipate every thought that any least rest of the medicine last triturated can 
 cling to them, and thus even the most scrupulous mind will be satisfied. 
 
 t Only phosphorus needs some modification in the preparation of the first 
 attenuation to the looth degree. Here the hundred grains of sugar of milk are 
 at once put into the triturating bowl and, wdth about twelve drops of water they 
 are stirred by means of the wet pestle into a thickish pap; one grain of phos- 
 phorus is then cut into numerous pieces, say twelve, and kneaded in vdth the 
 moist pestle and rather stamped than rubbed into it, while the mass which often 
 clings to the pestle is as often scraped into the mortar. Thus the little crumbs of 
 phosphorus are rubbed to little invisible dust particles in the thick pap of sugar 
 of milk even in the first two periods of six minutes each, without the appear- 
 ance of the least spark. During the third period of six minutes the stamping 
 may pass over into rubbing, because the mass is then approaching the form of 
 powder. During the succeeding three periods of six minutes each the tritura- 
 tion is carried on only with a moderate force, and after every six minutes the 
 powder is scraped from the mortar and the pestle for several minutes, which is 
 done easily, as this powder does not adhere tenaciously. After the sixth period 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. I49 
 
 To potentize the substance to the ten thousandth attenuation, 
 one grain of the powder last mentioned as being the one hundredth 
 is taken with one-third of 100 grains of fresh sugar of milk, vStirred 
 in the mortar with a spatula and treated as above, so that every 
 third is triturated twice for six minutes at a time, and after every 
 trituration is scraped together (for about four minutes), before the 
 second third of the sugar of milk is added and after this has been 
 similarlj^ treated the last third of sugar of milk is stirred into it and 
 again similarly triturated twice for six minutes at a time, when it is 
 scraped together, put in a stoppered vial with the signature loooo as it 
 contains the medicine potentized to the ten thousandth attenuation.* 
 
 The same is done with one grain of this powder (marked ioooo) in 
 order to bring it to I, and thus to attenuate it to the millionfold 
 potency. 
 
 In order to produce a homogeneity in the preparation of the 
 homoeopathic and especially the antipsoric remedies, at least in the 
 form of powders, I advise the reducing of medicines only to this 
 millionth potency, no more and no less and to prepare from this the 
 solutions and the necessary potencies of these solutions; this has been 
 my own custom. 
 
 The trituration should be done with force, yet only with so much 
 force that the sugar of milk may not be pressed too firmly to the 
 mortar, but may be scraped up in four minutes. 
 
 Now in preparing the solutions f from this, and in bringing the 
 medicines thus potentized one millionfold, into the fluid form, (so 
 that their dynamization may be still further continued) , we are aided 
 by the property of all medicinal substances, that, when brought to 
 the potency I, they are soluble in water and alcohol; this property is 
 still unknown to chemistry. 
 
 of trituration the powder, when standing exposed to the air in the dark, is only 
 feebly luminous, and has but a slight odor. It is put into a well-stoppered vial 
 and marked phosphorus yo^, the other two triturations roiyoo) and ^- are pre- 
 pared like those from other dry medicinal substances. 
 
 *Thus it will be seen that every attenuation (that to j jyj, that to toooo* ^^^d 
 also the third to 1 000000 or I) is prepared by six times triturating for six minutes 
 and six times scraping together for four minutes each time. Thus each one 
 requires one hour. 
 
 t In the beginning I used to give a small part of a grain of the powders 
 potentized to the joooo ^r the I degree by trituration, as a dose. But since a 
 small part of a grain is too indefinite a quantity, and since IIonuTeopathy must 
 avoid all indefiniteness and inexactness as much as possible, the discovery that 
 all medicines may be changed from potentized medicinal powders into fluids 
 with which a definite number of pellets may be moistened for a dose, was of 
 great value to me From liquids the higher potencies may also be easily pre- 
 pared. 
 
I50 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 The first solution cannot be made in pure alcohol, because sugar 
 of milk will not dissolve in alcohol. The first solution is therefore 
 made in a mixture of half water and half alcohol. 
 
 To one grain of the medicinal powder triturated to the millionfold 
 potency I, fift}' drops of distilled water are dropped in and by turn- 
 ing the vial a few times round on its axis it is easil}^ dissolved, 
 when fift}' drops of good alcohol^ are added, and the vial, which 
 ought only to be filled to two-thirds of its capacity by the mixture, 
 ought to be stoppered and shaken twice (/. e. with two down-strokes 
 of the arm). It is marked with the name of the medicine and ito"^.t 
 One drop of this is added to ninetj^-nine or one hundred drops of 
 pure alcohol, the stoppered vial is then shaken with two strokes of 
 the arm and marked with the name of the medicine and designated 
 iooool- One drop of this is added to ninety-nine or one hundred drops 
 of pure alcohol, the corked vial is then shaken with two strokes of 
 the arm and marked with the name of the medicine and n- The 
 preparation of the higher potencies is then continued with two 
 strokes of the arm ?j; every time to the lOQ-ii, looooii, m, etc., but to 
 attain a simple uniformity in practice only the vials with the full 
 numbers n, niTiv, v,|| etc., are used in practice, but the intermediate 
 
 * For the fifty drops of water as well as for the fifty drops of alcohol a vial 
 containing just that quantity may be used, so that we need not then count the 
 drops, especially as drops of water are not easily counted when it flows from 
 a vial, the mouth of which is not roughened by rubbing with sand. 
 
 fit will be well to mark on the label that it has been shaken twice, 
 together with the date. 
 
 j After man}' experiments and searching comparisons with the patients I 
 have for several years preferred from conviction to give to the medicinal fluids 
 which are to be elevated to higher potencies and at the same time to be ren- 
 dered milder, only two shakes (with two strokes of the arm) instead of the ten 
 shakes given b}' others, because the potentizing in the latter case by the 
 repeated shaking passes far beyond the attenuation at every step (though this 
 is one hundred fold ) ; while 3'et the end striven for is to develop the medicinal 
 powers onh^ in the degree that the attenuation may reach the end aimed for: 
 to moderate in some degree the strength of the medicine while its power of 
 penetration is increased. The double shake also increases the quantity of the 
 medicinal forces developed, like the tenfold shake, but not in as high a degree 
 as the latter, so that its strength may, nevertheless, be kept down by the one 
 hundred fold attenuation effected, and we thus obtain ever}^ time a weaker 
 though somewhat more liighh- potentized and more penetrating medicine. 
 
 II Instead of the fractional numbers xookoo (j), r 000000000000 ^\), etc., 
 these degrees of dynamization are frequently so expressed that only the expo- 
 nent showing how often one hundred has been multiplied into itself is 
 expressed, thus instead of 1, looC'j; instead of j\, looC^); instead of 1, loo(^); 
 instead oi ^h^m ioo(^*'); instead of jqIooix, ioq^^) and instead of decillion ^, 
 ioo(^''), thus only the exponents as to the third, sixth, ninth, tenth, twenty- 
 ninth and thirtieth potency, etc.

 numbers are preserved in boxes or cases with their labels. Thus 
 thej^ will be protected from the effect of daylight. 
 
 As the shaking is only to take place through moderate strokes of 
 the arm, the hand of which holds the vial, it is best to choose the 
 vials just so large that the}^ will be two- thirds filled with loo drops 
 of the attenuated medicine. 
 
 Vials that have contained a remed}^ must never be used for the 
 reception of any other medicine, though they be rinsed ever so 
 often, but new vials must be taken every time. 
 
 The pellets which are to be moistened with the medicine should 
 also be selected of the same size, hardly as large as poppy-seeds, 
 made by the confectioner, partl}^ so that the dose may be made small 
 enough, and partly that homoeopathic physicians in the preparation 
 of medicines, as also in the giving of doses, may act alike, and thus 
 be able to compare the result of their practice with that of other 
 Homoeopaths in the most certain manner. 
 
 The moistening of pellets is best done with a quantity, so that a 
 drachm or several drachms of pellets are put into a little dish of 
 stoneware, porcelain or glass; this dish should be more deep than 
 wide, in the form of a large thimble; several drops of the spirituous 
 medicinal fluid should be dropped into it (rather a few drops too 
 many), so that they may penetrate to the bottom and will have 
 moistened all the pellets within a minute. Then the dish is turned 
 over and emptied on a piece of clean double blotting paper, so that 
 the superfluous fluid may be absorbed by it, and when this is done, 
 the pellets are spread on the paper so as to dry quickly. When dr}-, 
 the pellets are filled in a vial, marked as to its contents, and well 
 stoppered. 
 
 All pellets moistened with the spirituous liquid have when dry a 
 dull appearance; the crude, unmoistened pellets look whiter and 
 more shining. 
 
 To prepare the pellets to give to patients, one or a couple of such 
 little pellets are put into the open end of a paper capsule containing 
 two or three grains of powdered sugar of milk ; this is then stroked 
 with a spatula or the nail of the thumb with some degree of pressure 
 until it is felt, that the pellet or pellets are crushed and broken, then 
 the pellets will easily- dissolve if put into water. 
 
 Wherever I mention pellets in giving medicine, I always mean 
 the finest, of the size of poppy-seeds, of which about 200 (^moro or 
 less) weigh a grain. 
 
152 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 The antipsoric medicines treated of in what follows contain no so- 
 called idiopathic medicines, since their pure effects, even those of the 
 potentized miasma of itch (^Psorin) have not been proved enough, by 
 far, that a safe homoeopathic use might be made of it. I say ho- 
 mceopathic use, for it does not remain idem (the same) ; even if the pre- 
 pared itch substance should be given to the same patient from w^hom 
 it w^as taken, it would not remain idem (the same), as it could only 
 be useful to him in a potentized state, since crude itch substance 
 which he has alread}- in his body as an idem is without effect on him. 
 But the dynamization or potentizing changes it and modifies it; just 
 as gold leaf after potentizing is no more crude gold leaf inert in the 
 human body, but in every stage of djaiamization it is more and more 
 modified and changed. 
 
 Thus potentized and modified also, the itch substance {^Pso7in) 
 when taken is no more an idem (same) wdth the crude original itch 
 substance, but only a simillimum (thing most similar). Fo?^ between 
 IDEM and siMiivLiMUM there is no inter^nediate for any 07ie that can 
 think; or in other words between idem and simile only simillimum, 
 can be intermediate. Isopathic and csquale are equivocal expres- 
 sions, which if they should signif}^ an>^hing reliable can onl}^ signify 
 simillimum, because they are not idem (zaunr/).

PREFACE 
 
 CONCERNING THE TECHNICAL PART OF HOMG^OPATHY.! 
 
 Since I last* addressed the public concerning our healing art, I 
 have had among other things also the opportunity to gain experience 
 as to the best possible mode of administering the doses of the medi- 
 cines to the patients, and I herewith communicate what I have 
 found best in this respect. 
 
 A small pellet of one of the highest dynamizations of a medicine 
 laid dry upon the tongue, or the moderate smelling of an opened vial 
 wherein one or more such pellets are contained, proves itself the 
 smallest and weakest dose with the shortest period of duration in its 
 effects. Still there are numerous patients of so excitable a nature, 
 that they are sufficiently affected by such a dose in slight acute ail- 
 ments to be cured by it if the remedy is homoeopathically selected. 
 Nevertheless the incredible variety among patients as to their irrita- 
 bility, their age, their spiritual and bodily development, their vital 
 power and especially as to the nature of their disease, necessitates a 
 great variet}^ in their treatment, and also in the administration to 
 them of the doses of medicines. For their diseases ma}^ be of vari- 
 ous kinds: either a natural and simple one but latel}^ arisen, or it 
 may be a natural and simple one but an old case, or it ma}^ be a 
 complicated one (a combination of several miasmata), or again what 
 is the most frequent and worst case, it may have been spoiled b}^ a 
 perverse medical treatment, and loaded down with medicinal diseases. 
 
 I can here limit myself only to this latter case, as the other cases 
 cannot be arranged in tabular form for the weak and negligent, but 
 must be left to the accuracy, the industry and the intelligence of able 
 men, who are masters of their art. 
 
 Experience has shown me, as it has no doubt also shown to most 
 of my followers, that it is most useful in diseases of an}' magnitude 
 (not excepting even the most acute, and still more so in the half- 
 
 iThis preface was prefixed to Vol. III. of the "Chronic Diseases," published in the year 
 
 1837.— TV. 
 
 *In the beginning of the year 1834 I wrote the first two parts of this work 
 and although they together contain only thirty-six sheets, my former ptiblisher, 
 Mr. Arnold, in Dresden, took two years to publish these thirty-six sheets, l^v 
 whom was he thus delayed? My acquaintances can guess that. 
 
156 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 acute, in the tedious and most tedious) to give to the patient the 
 powerful homoeopathic pellet or pellets only in solution, and this 
 solution in di\dded doses. In this wa}^ we give the medicine, dis- 
 solved in seven to twenty tablespoonfuls of water without any addi- 
 tion, in acute and very acute diseases every six, four or two hours; 
 where the danger is urgent, even every hour or every half -hour, a 
 tablespoonful at a time; with weak persons or children, only a small 
 part of a tablespoonful (one or two teaspoonfuls or coffeespoonfuls) 
 may be given as a dose. 
 
 In chronic diseases I have found it best to give a dose {e. g. , a 
 vSpoonful) of a solution of the suitable medicine at least everj^ tw^o 
 da^'s, more usually ever>' day. 
 
 But since water (even distilled water) commences after a few 
 days to be spoil, whereby the power of the small quantity of 
 medicine contained is destroyed, the addition of a little alcohol is 
 necessars', or where this is not practicable, or if the patient cannot 
 bear it, I add a few small pieces of hard charcoal to the water>^ 
 solution. This answers the purpose, except that in the latter case 
 the fluid in a few days receives a blackish tint. This is caused by 
 shaking the Hquid, as is necessar>^ every time before giving a dose 
 of medicine, as maj' be seen below. 
 
 Before proceeding, it is important to observe, that our vital prin- 
 ciple cannot well bear that the same unchanged dose of medicine be 
 given even twice in succession, much less more frequenth^ to a 
 patient. For bj^ this the good effect of the former dose of medicine 
 is either neutralized in part, or new S3'mptoms proper to the medi- 
 cine, symptoms which have not before been present in the disease, 
 appear, impeding the cure. Thus even a well selected homoeopathic 
 medicine produces ill effects and attains its purpose imperfectly or 
 not at all. Thence come the many contradictions of homoeopathic 
 physicians with respect to the repetition of doses. 
 
 But m taking one and the same medicine repeatedh' (w^hich is 
 indispensable to secure the cure of a serious, chronic disease), if the 
 dose is in ever\^ case varied and modified onl}' a little in its degree of 
 dynamization, then the vital force of the patient will calmh^ and as 
 it were willing!}' receive the same medicine even at brief intervals 
 very many times in succession with the best results, every time 
 increasing the well-being of the patient. 
 
 This slight change in the degree of dynamization is even effected, 
 if the bottle which contains the solution of one or more pellets is 
 merel}' well shaken five or six times, every time before taking it. 
 
 Now when the ph^^sician has in this way used up the solution of 
 the medicine that had been prepared, if the medicine continues use- 
 
HAHNEMANN S CHRONIC DISEASES. 1 57 
 
 ful, he will take one or two pellets of the same medicine in a lower 
 potenc}^ {e. g. if before he had used the thirtieth dilution, he will 
 now take one or two pellets of the twenty-fourth), and will make 
 a solution in about as many spoonfuls of water, shaking up the 
 bottle, and adding a little alcohol or a few pieces of charcoal. 
 This last solution may then be taken in the same manner, or at 
 longer intervals, perhaps also less of the solution at a time; but every 
 time the solution must be shaken up five or six times. This will be 
 continued so long as the remedy still produces improvement and 
 until new ailments (such as have never 3^et occurred with other 
 patients in this disease), appear; for in such a case a new remedy 
 will have to be used. On any day when the remedy has produced 
 too strong an action, the dose should be omitted for a day. If the 
 symptoms of the disease alone appear, but are considerably aggra- 
 vated even during the more moderate use of the medicine, then the 
 time has come to break off in the use of the medicine for one or two 
 weeks, and to await a considerable improvement.* 
 
 When the medicine has been consumed and it is found neces- 
 sary to continue the same remedy, if the physician should desire to 
 prepare a new portion of medicine from the same degree of potency, 
 it will be necessary to give to the new solution as many shakes, as 
 the number of shakes given to the last portion amount to when 
 summed up together, and then a few more, before the patient is given 
 the first dose; but after that, with the subsequent doses, the solution 
 is to be shaken up only five or six times. 
 
 In this manner the homoeopathic physician will derive all the 
 benefit from a well selected remedy, which can be obtained in any 
 special case of chronic disease by doses given through the mouth. 
 
 But if the diseased organism is affected by the physician through 
 
 * In treating acute cases of disease the homoeopathic physician will proceed 
 in a similar manner. He will dissolve one (two) pellet of the highly potent- 
 ized, well selected medicine in seven, ten or fifteen tablespoonfuls of water 
 (without addition) by shaking the bottle. He will then, according as the dis- 
 ease is more or less acute, and more or less dangerous, give the patient every 
 half hour, or every hour, every two, three, four, six hours (after again well 
 shaking the bottle) a whole or a half tablespoonful of the solution, or, in the 
 case of a child, even less. If the physician sees no new symptoms develop, he 
 will continue at these intervals, until the symptoms present at first begin to be 
 aggravated; then he will give it at longer intervals and less at a time. 
 
 As is well known, in cholera the suitable medicine has often to be given at 
 far shorter intervals. 
 
 Children are always given these solutions from their usual drinking vessels; 
 a teaspoon for drinking is to them unusal and suspicious, and they will refuse 
 the tasteless liquid at once on that account. A little sugar may be atlded for 
 their sake. 
 
158 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 this same appropriate remedy at the same time in sensitive spots other 
 than the nerves of the mouth and the alimentary canal, i. e. if this 
 same remedy that has been found useful is at the same time in its 
 watery solution rubbed in (even in small quantities) into one or 
 more parts of the bod}^ which are most free from the morbid ailments 
 (<?. g. on an arm, or on the thigh or leg, which have neither cutane- 
 ous eruptions, nor pains, nor cramps) — then the curative effects are 
 much in creased. The limbs which are thus rubbed with the solu- 
 tion may also be varied, first one, then another. Thus the physician 
 will receive a greater action from the medicine homoeopathically suit- 
 able to the chronic patient, and can cure him more quickly, than by 
 merely internally administering the remedy. 
 
 This mode of procedure has been frequently proved by myself 
 and found extraordinarily curative; yea, attended by the most start- 
 ling good effects; the medicine taken internall}^ being at the same 
 time nibbed on the skin externally. This procedure will also explain 
 the wonderful cures, of rare occurrence indeed, where chronic crippled 
 patients with sound ski7i recovered quickly and permanently by a few 
 baths in a mineral water, the medicinal constituents of which were 
 to a great degree homoeopathic to their chronic disease.* 
 
 The limb, therefore, on which the solution is to be rubbed in, must 
 be free from cutaneous ailments. In order to introduce also here 
 change and variation, when several of the limbs are free from cutane- 
 ous ailments, one limb after the other should be used, in alternation, 
 on different days, (best on da3's when the medicine is not taken in- 
 ternally). A small quantity of the solution should be rubbed in with 
 the hand, until the limb is dry. Also for this purpose, the bottle 
 should be shaken five or six times. 
 
 Convenient as the mode of administering the medicine above 
 described may be, and much as it surely advances the cure of chronic 
 diseases, nevertheless, the greater quantity of alcohol or whiskey or 
 
 * On the other hand such baths have also inflicted a proportionally greater 
 injury with patients who suffered from ulcers and cutaneous eruptions; for 
 these were driven by them from the skin, as may be done by other external 
 means, when after a short period of health, the vital force of the patient trans- 
 ferred the internal uncured disease to another part of the body, and one much 
 more important to life and health. Thus e. g. may be produced the obscura- 
 tion of the crystalline lens, the paralysis of the optic nerve, the destruction 
 of the sense of hearing ; pains also of innumerable kinds in consequence torture 
 the patient, his mental organs suffer, his mind becomes obscured, spasmodic 
 asthma threatens to suffocate him, or an apoplectic stroke carries him off, or 
 some other dangerous or unbearable disease takes the place of the former ail- 
 ment. Therefore the homoeopathic remedy given internally must never be 
 rubbed in on parts which suffer from external ailments. 
 
HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS. 159 
 
 the several lumps of charcoal which have to be added in warmer 
 weather to preserve the watery solution were still objectionable to me 
 with many patients. 
 
 I have, therefore, lately found the following mode of administra- 
 tion preferable with careful patients. From a mixture of about five 
 tablespoonfuls of pure water and five tablespoonfuls of French 
 brand^^ — which is kept on hand in a bottle, 200, 300 or 400 drops 
 (according as the solution is to be weaker or stronger) are dropped 
 into a little vial, which may be half-filled with it, and in which the 
 medicinal powder or the pellet or pellets of the medicine have been 
 placed. This vial is stoppered and shaken until the medicine is dis- 
 solved. From this solution one, two, three or several drops, accord- 
 ing to the irritability and the vital force of the patient, are dropped 
 into a cup, containing a spoonful of water; this is then well stirred 
 and given to the patient, and where more especial care is necessary, 
 only the half of it may be given; half a spoonful of this mixture may 
 also well be used for the above mentioned external rubbing. 
 
 On days, when only the latter is administered, as also when it is 
 taken internally, the little vial containing the drops must every time 
 be briskly shaken five or six times; so also the drop or drops of 
 medicine with the tablespoonful of water must be well stirred in 
 the cup. 
 
 It would be still better if instead of the cup a vial should be 
 used, into which a tablespoonful of water is put, which can then be 
 shaken five or six times and then wholly or half emptied for a dose. 
 
 . Frequently it is useful in treating chronic diseases to take the 
 medicine, or to rub it in in the evening, shortly before going to 
 sleep, because we have then less disturbance to fear from without, 
 than when it is done earlier. 
 
 When I was still giving the medicines in undivided portions, 
 each with some water at a time, I often found that the potentizing 
 in the attenuating glasses effected by ten shakes was too strong 
 {i. <?., the medicinal action too strongly developed) and I, therefore, 
 advised only two succussions. But during the last years, since I 
 have been giving every dose of medicine in an incorruptible solution, 
 divided over fifteen, twenty or thirty days and even more, no potent- 
 izing in an attenuating vial is found too strong, and I again use ten 
 strokes with each. So I herewith take back what I wrote on this 
 subject three years ago in the first volume of this book on page 149. 
 
 In cases where a great irritability of the patient is combined with 
 extreme debility, and the medicine can only be administered by 
 allowing the patient to smell a few small pellets contained in a vial. 
 when the medicine is to be used for several days, I allow the patient 
 
l6o HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISKASKS.

ANTIPSORIC MEDICINES. 
 
 AGARICUS MUSCARIUS.* 
 
 (TOAD-STOOIv. ) 
 
 Agaricus is the fetid toad-stool with scarlet-red top, which is 
 studded with whitish warts and has a white border. Of the toad- 
 stool carefully dried take one grain, or two grains of the fresh plant, 
 and triturate it like any of the other medicines with sugar of milk 
 for three hours; this preparation is afterwards dissolved, attenuated 
 and potentized by two succussive strokes for every potency until we 
 reach the thirtieth potenc}^ (or x). 
 
 Apelt found it useful in pains of the upper jaw-bone and of the 
 teeth, as well as in pains of the bones of the lower limbs (seemingly 
 in the marrow) and finally in itching eruptions as large as millet 
 seeds, set closely together; as also in lassitude following coition. 
 
 Whistling cured with it convulsions and trembling, and /. C. 
 Bernhard cured with it even several varieties of epilepsy. 
 
 Dr. Woost saw the effects of agaricus in large does extend for 
 seven or eight weeks. 
 
 Camphor is the chief antidote in ailments due to toad-stool even 
 when they become chronic. 
 
 The abbreviations of the names of my fellow-provers are as 
 follows: 
 
 Ap,, Apelt; Gr., Dr. Gross ; Fr. H., Dr. Frederick Hahnemann, 
 
 * Agaricus appears for the first time in this second edition, but Hahnemann acknowledges 
 that his fellow observers and he himself also had already published their observations— 
 Hahnemann with his son and lyaughammer in Vol. IX., Apelt in Vol. X., of the Atchiv; Gross 
 Schreter and Stapf in the Pvakt. Milih. d. cen. Gesell. kom. Arrzte. for 1S2S, Ng., Seidel, Soh., 
 and Woost in Hartlaub and Trink's Arzncimittellchrc, Vol. III., 1S31. Apelt proved a tincture 
 of the fresh fungus, beginning with six to eight drops of the tincture and going on to the 
 twelfth and thirtieth potencies; he gives his symptoms in schema form only, and does not 
 indicate how each one was obtained. Of the doses taken by Gross we have no record, and the 
 same may be said of the remaining observers; but from the dates of their publications it may 
 fairly be inferred that their proviugs were made after the earlier rather than the later manner. 
 For the same reasons Hahnemann's own symptoms— to which no addition has here been made 
 —may be accounted as derived from provings on the healthy and not fn^m observations oti the 
 sick. Triturations of the dried iungus seem to have been used by all but Apelt. (Concerning

 ALUMINA. 
 
 (OXIDE OF AIvUMINUM.) 
 
 To secure quite pure clay, a matter of some difficulty, we may 
 use the following process: Pure muriate of lime which has been 
 thoroughly dried b}^ heating in a porcelain bowl is pulverized while 
 still hot, and dissolved in as much alcohol as is required. Half 
 an ounce of white Roman alum from Solfatara is dissolved in five 
 parts of distilled water and to remove any adherent earth is filtered. 
 The sulphuric acid contained in it is precipitated in the form of 
 gypsum, by dropping in the alcoholic solution of muriate of lime 
 until the solution of alum is no longer rendered turbid thereby. The 
 clear watery fluid on top then contains muriate of alumina, from 
 which this earth is precipitated by means of alcoholic spirits of am- 
 monia. It is then well washed and then thoroughl}^ heated in order 
 to completely remove the ammonia. The powder is then , while warm, 
 preserved in a well-stoppered glass vial, and is pure alumina. One 
 grain of this is then triturated in the well-known manner with thrice 
 one hundred grains of sugar of milk. Through solution and further 
 dilution mth alcohol, it is then brought to the decillionth potency, in 
 the manner directed at the conclusion of the first volume with respect 
 to dry medicinal substances. Alumina has proved itself an impor- 
 tant antipsoric. 
 
 It proved itself excellent when it was otherwise homoeopathically 
 suitable to the case, when one or several of the following states were 
 present:*

 According to Bute, Bryonia is an antidote to the excessive fever- 
 has been now and then misunderstood, having been regarded as determining 
 the choice of remedies in the treatment of diseases (as indicatiofis)\ this they 
 cannot and should not be; they are not names of diseases healed, but only of 
 separate symptoms which, in treating a disease with the specified medicine, 
 were either diminished or removed — ab usu. To use them otherwise is a de- 
 ceptive procedure which we leave now as before to our allopathic step-brothers. 
 They are, on the contrary, only to serve to furnish occasionally a little confinna- 
 tion of the correct choice of the homoeopathic remedy, already found out from 
 their pure peculiar medicinal effects, as indicated according to the siniiUirity of 
 the symptoms of disease of the special case under consideration.

 designate a man who furnished the greatest number of symptoms in the prov- 
 ings of medicines for their "• Annalen,'" which often appear in very negligent, 
 diffuse and vague expressions. I could merely extract therefrom what was use- 
 ful under the supposition that he has acted as an honest, careful man. But it is 
 hardly to be excused that the Homoeopathic public should be expected to give 
 absolute credit to an unknown person designated merely with the two letters 
 N-g in this most important and serious work which requires circumspection, 
 acuteness of the senses, subtle gift of observation and strict criticism of one's 
 own sensations and perceptions, as well as a correct choice of expression, in 
 prosecuting a work which is an indispensable foundation of our healing art.^ 
 
 iThe pathogenesis of Alumina resemliles that of Agaricus, in appearing for the first time 
 in the second edition, but being made up almost entirely of already published provings. 
 Hahnemann's own symptoms maybe included in this description; for Hering writes {Guiding 
 Symptoms sub voce): Hahnemann had proved the pure earth when Hartlaub and Trinks edited 
 a collection of 975 symptoms, obtained from four provers," — the Hartlaub, Ng., Schreter and 
 Trinks of the above list— "in their ArzneimiticUchrr in 1829. The year after, Hahnemann pub- 
 lished his own observations in Stapfs Archiv, viz. 215 symptoms obtained from a much better 
 preparation. Hartlaub simply purified his preparation by washing it, which never can sufl&ce, 
 but Hahnemann subjected his to a red heat." Xo information is given as to the subjects and 
 doses of his provings (if provings they were); but with Hartlaub and Trinks the ist trituration 
 and 9th dilution were employed. Of the source of Bute's symptoms we have no information.— 
 Hughes. 
 
 2 This note of Hahnemann has led to a good deal of mistrust of the symptoms of the 
 anonymous observer in question, which has been increased by their exeessive number. Dr. 
 Roth having counted more than eleven thousand in the several contributions to our Materia 
 Medica made by him between 1828 and 1836. The same critic also says, that he has found great 
 sameness in his pathogenetic lists. Dr. Hering, however (Allen's Encyclopsedia HI, 640) has 
 explained why " Ng."— the surgeon Cajatan Nenning— had to keep his name concealed; and 
 has shown that his symptoms were obtained by genuine provings on healthy subjects. Nen- 
 ning himself has given in the Allg. horn. Zeitung for 1839 a similar account to explain the 
 copiousness of his symptom lists. " A number of persons in part related to me and in part 
 friendly (they were millinery pupils of his wife'sl were gathered together by me, and in con- 
 sideration of board and payment, made experiments. Along with them were also my two 
 daughters; and with complete reliance on the honesty of them all, I gave one medioine to one 
 and another to another, writing down all that they reported. It was a matter of conscience on 
 my part not to omit the smallest particular, and that thereby frequent repetitions have arisen, 
 I grant readily, but I thought that just in that way the sphere of action of the medicine could 
 be best recognized." — Hughes.

 do of late, and then, in order to free it from any contents of lead which may be 
 suspected, subliming it again, (G. Pharm. boruss. P. 134,) (what a round about

 good sized medicine bottle which is loosely corked, place this bottle in an iron

 limate the ammonia by fire into the upper part of the bottle and then break

 We take one drachm of sal ammoniac in lumps, as being the 
 purest. This is dissolved in i}4 drachms of boiling distilled water, 
 filtered through white printing paper and then set in the cellar to 
 quietly crystallize. Of the crystallized and dried salt''^ one grain is 
 then triturated three times with one hundred grains of sugar of milk

 dilution it is diluted and potentized to the 3otli development of power, 
 as has been taught concerning the other dry drugs at the end of the 
 first volume. 
 
 This natural salt, which has been abused by allopathy so fre- 
 quently and in such large doses, in diseases of every kind, shows 
 itself in homoeopathic practice as an excellent anti-psoric, even in a 
 dose of one or two of the smallest pellets moistened with a potency of 
 high degree, and administered in dilution of more or less water (ac- 
 cording as it is desired to act more or less strongly), or also by 
 smelling of such a larger or smaller pellet. 
 
 This salt deserves in a high degree further provings as to its pure 
 effects. 
 
 This medicine has proved itself particularly efficacious where one 
 or more of the following sj^mptoms appeared: 
 
 I^ugubrious, peevish, indifferent mood; flying spots a?id points 
 before the vision, in day-time and in the evening at candle-light; 
 (hard hearing); Ringing and buzzing in the ears; ulcerated corners 
 of the mouth; tensive pains in the articulations of the jaws, during 
 chewing and opening the mouth; empty eructation; lancinating

ANCARDIUM. 277 
 
 ANACARDIUM. 
 
 (MALACCA-NUT.) 
 
 The lofty tree {^Avicennia tome?itosa^ seniecarpus Anacardiurn) 
 which yields this fruit, grew in the time of the Arabs, on Mt. ^tna, 
 in Sicily; now it is found in dry forests in East India. Between the 
 outer, shining black, heart-shaped and hard shell and the sweet 
 kernel within, which is covered with a thin, brownish-red skin, this 
 fruit contains in a tissue of cells a thickish, blackish juice, with 
 which the Hindoos indelibly mark their linen, and of such acridity, 
 that even moles can be cauterized with it. It is only rarely that 
 we get this fruit so fresh that this juice is still somewhat fluid, of 
 the consistence of honey; usually it is quite dry. We take of this, 
 for homoeopathic use, one grain, and like other dry vegetable sub- 
 stances, it is brought by three hours' trituration with thrice one 
 hundred grains of sugar of milk to the millionth powder-attenua- 
 tion, and then through solution, dilution and shaking, its medicinal 
 power is developed and potentized. 
 
 This fruit, as well as the tree which bears it, is to be carefully dis- 
 tinguished from another which bears a similar name, Anacardium 
 occidentale ; the fruit of this tree is of kidney-shape and was un- 
 known to the Arabs, who first called attention to the medicinal 
 powers of the heart-shaped fruit, which they called Balador. 
 
 During the last one thousand years this powerful and sanative 
 remedy had fallen into total oblivion, as well as several other reme- 
 dies which the more observant ancients had made good use of. 
 
 Serapio in his book, De Siinplicibus^ C. 346 (contained in Pradica 
 Sei'aponis, Venet. fol. 1550), quotes most of the writers among the 
 Arabians who have written about the use of the juice of Anacardium. 
 Abe7i Mesiiai says: It is good when sensation and memor}' have been 
 marred; Alchalahamen: its property is to encounter the relaxation 
 of the nerves (paralysis) ; Bedigoras: it removes forgetfulness and 
 sharpens sensation; Abugerig: it is good for paralytics and those 
 who fear its coming. This last writer also advises carefulness in its 
 use; it produces — bai^as (heaviness?) and leprosy and abscesses, and 
 perhaps it kills — it is hurtful to youths and to the choleric. 
 
 If on choosing Anacardium, according to its peculiar syinptoins. 
 also one or another of the following states is found, this would only 
 make more sure the correctness of its choice. 
 
278 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES.

 head as after a debauch; pressive headache from the temple toward 
 the eye; headache in the occiput, from a misstep or loud noise; weak-

 tions during the day; lack of enjoyment of coitus; leucorrhoea, with 
 itching and soreness; sensation of dryness in the nose; stoppage of 
 the nose; long-continued catarrh and flow of mucus from the nose; 
 cough, with expectoration; rattling in the bronchia, while lying on 
 the side; shooting and heaviness in the forearm; tensive pain and 
 weakness in the arm ; trembling of the right hand; burning in the 
 soles of the feet; weight in the hmbs, especially in the knees; tremu-

 dreams; chilliness; perspiration in sitting. 
 
 Camphor and ethereal spirits of nitre are but weak antidotes; but 
 smelling of raw coffee is efficacious against the anger and violence 
 caused by Anacardium.

 to the pure effects of Anacardium are: Br., Dr. Becher ; Fz., Dr.

 A pathogenesis of Anacardium appeared in the third Vol. of the Archiv (1823), containing 
 484 symptoms obtained from the powdered bean and tincture by the seven provers mentioned 
 above and by Hahneminn himself. His present symptom-list is made up of these and of 138 
 fresh symptoms obtained (in all probability) in his later rviQ.-a.n^r.— Hughes.

 Increase, greater keenness of the memory'; even the least

 ease (aft. i^ h.). \_F2.']

 blunted, so that he does not think anv more of anvthing at all

302 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASEvS. 
 
 ANTIMONIUM CRUDUM. 
 
 (GRAY ORE OF ANTIMONY, TERSUI.PHATE OF ANTIMONY, STIBIUM 
 SULPHURATUM NIGRUM.) 
 
 The native ore of tersulphuret of antimon\' is found in blocks of 
 parallel black needles with an almost metallic lustre, and composed 
 of twent^'-eight parts of sulphur combined with loo parts of metallic 
 antimony. Having been first chemically tested so as to insure its 
 freedom from the admixture of other metals, it is prepared in the 
 manner directed at the close of the first part for dr}' medicinal sub- 
 stances and raised to the 30th potenc}' for homoeopathic use. From 
 the pure effects on the healthy human bod}' as laid down here, the 
 frequent usefulness of a minimum dose of it in appropriate cases of 
 chronic diseases may readily be perceived It is ver}' much to be 
 desired that also the pure metallic antimony may be proved most 
 carefully as to its pure effects, as we may expect of it much help, as 
 yet unknown, and of a kind differing from that of the sulphuret of 
 antimony' ; even as arsenic is different in its effects from the ^-ellow 
 sulphuret of arsenic, and the metallic mercury from cinnabar, each 
 one having its own usefulness as a medicine. 
 
 The pharmaceutic remedies containing the sulphuret of antimony 
 as kermes minerale, and sulphur auratum antimonii primse, secundse, 
 tertise praecipitationis contain very different quantities of the sul- 
 phuret of antimony according to their varying mode of preparation. 
 
 Where the crude ore of antimony is found homoeopathic in its 
 pure effects, it will be found the more serviceable if the following 
 symptoms are at the same time present: 
 
 Intolerance, in a child, of being touched and looked at: rush of 
 blood to the head; troublesome itching of the head wnth falling out 
 of the hair {Htb.)\ redness and mflamination of the eyelids; sore 
 nostrils; heat and itching of the cheeks; paiiis m the hollow teeth; 
 long continued loss of appetite; eructation ivith the taste of the ingesta; 
 loathing, qualmishness and nausea from spoiled stomach; colic with 
 loss of appetite, hard stool and red urine, in a child; pinching in 
 the belly with a sensation as if diarrhoea was coming on; alternating 
 diarrhoea and constipation in older persons (Htb.); difficult, hard

 (^The semi-oxide of metallic arsenic in diluted and potentized solution.) 
 
 As I write down the word Arsenic, momentous memories seize 
 upon m}- soul. 
 
 When the All-merciful One created iron, He granted to man- 
 kind, indeed, to fashion from it either the murderous dagger or the 
 mild ploughshare, and either to kill or to nourish their brethren 
 therewith. How much happier, however, would they be, did they 
 employ His gifts onh' to benefit one another! This should be the 
 aim of their life; this w^as His will. 
 
 So also it is not to Him, the All-loving One, we must impute the 
 wickeness practiced b}^ men, who have dared to misemplo}" the won- 
 derfulh' powerful medicinal substances in diseases for which they 
 w^ere not suitable, and besides this in doses 50 enormous, guided only 
 by frivolous ideas or some paltry- authorities, without having subjected 
 them to any careful trial, and without a well-grounded selection.

 If now a careful prover of the effects of medicines arise, they 
 inveigh against him as an enemy to their comfort, and do not refrain 
 .from the most dishonest calumnies. 
 
 The ordinary medical art has hitherto employed in large andfre- 
 quently i^epeated doses the most powerful medicines, such as arsenic, 
 nitrate of silver, corrosive sublimate, aconite, belladonna, iodine, 
 digitalis, opium, hyoscyamus, etc. Homoeopathy cannot employ 
 stronger substances, for there are none stronger. Now, when ordi- 
 nary physicians employ them, they evidently vie with one another 
 who shall prescribe the largest possible doses of these drugs, and 
 even make a great boast of their mounting to such enormous doses. 
 This practice they laud and approve in their fellow practitioners. 
 But if the Homoeopathic medical art employ the same drugs, not at 
 random, like the ordinary method, but after careful investigation, 
 only in suitable cases and in the smallest possible doses, it is de- 
 nounced as a practice of poisoning. How partisan, how unjust, how 
 calumnious is such a charge made by men who make pretensions to 
 honesty and uprightness! 
 
 If Homoeopathy now make a fuller explanation, if she condemn 
 (as from conviction she must) the enormous doses of these drugs 
 given in ordinary practice, and if she, relying on careful trials, insists 
 that very much less of them should be given for a dose, that where 
 ordinary physicians give a tenth, a half, a whole grain, and even 
 several grains, often only a quadrillionth, a sextillionth, a decil- 
 ionth of a grain is required and sufi&cient, then the adherents of the 
 ordinary school, who denounce the Homoeopathic healing art as a 
 system of poisoning, laugh aloud, abuse it as childishness, and 
 declare themselves convinced (convinced without trial?) that such a 
 small qua?itity can do nothing at all, and can have no effect what- 
 ever, is, indeed, just the same as nothhig. They are not ashamed 
 thus to blow hot and cold from the same mouth, and to pronounce 
 the very same thing to be inert and ludicrously small, which they had 
 just accused of being a system of poisoning, whilst they justif}' and 
 praise their own enormous and murderous doses of the same reme- 
 dies. Is not this the grossest and most wretched inconsistency that 
 can be imagined, invented for the very purpose of being sliamelessly 
 unjust toward a doctrine which, they cannot deny, possesses truth, 
 consistence and agreement with experience, and which practices tlio 
 most delicate cautiousness and the most unwearied circumspection in 
 the selection and administration of its remedies ? 
 
 Not very long ago a highly celebrated physician-!' spoke of pounds 
 of opium being eaten every month in his hospital, where even the

 nurses were allowed to give it to the patients according to their 
 fancy. Opium, mind! a drug that has sent several thousands of 
 men to their graves in ordinary practice ! Yet this man continued to 
 be held in honor, for he belonged to the dominant clique to which 
 everything is lawful even if it be of the most destructive and absurd 
 character. And when, a few years since, in one of the most enlight- 
 ened cities-'^ of Europe almost every practitioner, from the physician 
 of lofty title down to the barber's apprentice, prescribed arsenic as a 
 fashionable remedy in almost every disease, and that in such fre- 
 quent and large doses in close succession, that the detriment to the 
 health of the people must have been quite palpable, yet this was held 
 to be an honorable practice, though not one of them was acquainted 
 with the peculiar effects of the semi-oxide of this metal (and con- 
 sequently knew not what cases of disease it was suited for). And 
 yet all prescribed it in repeated doses, a single one of which, sufficiently 
 attenuated and potentized, would have sufficed to cure all the diseases 
 in the whole habitable world for which this drug is the suitable remedy. 
 Which of these two oppsite modes of employing medicines best 
 deserves the flattering appellation of a " system of poisoning " — the 
 ordinary method just alluded to, which attacks with tenths of grains 
 the poor patients (who often require some quite different remedy), 
 or Homoeopathy, which does not even give a little drop of tincture 
 of rhubarb without having first ascertained whether rhubarb is the 
 most suitable, the only appropriate remedy for the case. Homoeop- 
 athy which, by unwearied, multipHed experiments, discovered that it 
 is only in rare cases that more than a decillionth of a grain of arsenic 
 should be given, and that only in cases where careful proving shows 
 this medicine to be the only one perfectly suitable ? To which of 
 these two modes of practice does then the honorary title of ' ' thought- 
 less, rash system of poisoning" properly apply? 
 
 There is yet another sect of practitioners who may be called 
 hypocritical purists. If they are practical physicians, they, indeed, 
 prescribe all sorts of substances that are injurious when misused, but 
 before the world they wish to pose as patterns of innocence and 
 caution. From their professional chairs and in their writings they 
 give us the most alarming definition of poison; to Hsten to their 
 declarations it would appear unadvisable to treat any imaginable dis- 
 ease with anything stronger than quick-grass, dandeHon, oxymel 
 and raspberry ju ice. According to their definition, poisons are abso-

 lately (/. e., under all circumstances, in all doses, in all cases; preju- 
 pdicial to human life, and in this category they include (in order to 
 prejudice against Homoeopathy), as suits their humor, a lot of sub- 
 stances which in all ages have been extensively employed by phy- 
 sicians for the cure of diseases. But the employment of these 
 substances would be a criminal offence had not every one of them 
 occasionally proved of use. If, however, each of them had only 
 proved itself curative on only one occasion — and it cannot be denied 
 that this sometimes happened — then this blasphemous definition is at 
 the same time a palpable absurdity. Absolutely and under all cir- 
 cumstances injurious and destructive, and yet at the same time 
 salutary, is a contradiction in itself, is utter nonsense. If they would 
 wriggle out of this contradiction, they allege, as a subterfuge, that 
 these substances have more frequently proved injurious than useful. 
 But did the more frequent injury caused by these substances come 
 from these substances themselves, or from their improper employ- 
 ment, /. e. , from those who made an unskillful use of them in disea.ses 
 for which they were not suitable ? These medicines do not administer 
 themselves in diseases, they must be administered by men; and if 
 they were beneficial at an}^ time, it was because they were at one 
 time appropriately administered by somebody; it was because they 
 might always be beneficial, if men never made any other than a suit- 
 able use of them. Hence it follows that whenever these substances 
 were hurtful and destructive they were so merely on account of 
 having been inappropriately employed. Therefore all the injur}^ is 
 attributable to the unskillfulness of their employers. 
 
 These narrow-minded individuals further said: " Even when we 
 attempt to tame arsenic by means of a corrective, e.g., by mixing it 
 with an alkali, it still often enough does harm." 
 
 Nay, I reply, the arsenic must not be blamed for this; for, as I 
 before observed, drugs do not administer themselves, somebody ad- 
 ministers them and does harm with them. And wdiat can the alkali 
 do as a corrective? Is it merely intended to weaken the arsenic, or 
 to change its character and convert it into something else ? In the 
 latter case the neutral arsenical salt produced is no longer arsenic 
 proper, but something different. If, however, it be merely made 
 weaker, then surely a simple diminution of the dose of the pure 
 solution of arsenic would be a much more rational and effectual mode 
 of making it weaker and milder, than leaving the dose in its hurtful 
 magnitude and by the addition of another medicinal substance en- 
 deavoring to effect some, nobody knows what, alteration in its n.uuro. 
 as takes place when a pretended corrective is used. If you tliiuk 
 
324 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 one-tenth of a grain of arsenic too strong, what is to prevent you 
 from diluting the solution and giving less, a great deal less, of it ? 
 
 "A tenth of a grain," I hear some one sa}^ ' is the smallest 
 quantity the etiquette of the profession allows us to prescribe. Who 
 could write a prescription to be made up at the apothecary's for a 
 smaller quantity without making himself ridiculous?" 
 
 So, indeed ! a tenth of a grain sometimes acts so violentl}^ as to 
 endanger life, and the etiquette of your guild does not allow you to 
 give less, very much less. Is it not an insult to common sense to talk 
 in this way ? Is the etiquette of the profession a code of rules to 
 bind a set of slaves without rationality, or is it the rule among men 
 having a free will and intelligence ? If it is the latter, who hinders 
 them from giving a smaller quantity where a greater might be inju- 
 rious ? Obstinacy ? the dogmatism of a school ? or what other dun- 
 geon of the intellect ? 
 
 " Arsenic," " they protest, would still be hurtful, though given 
 in a smaller quantity, even if we should be willing to descend to the 
 ridiculous dose of a hundredth or of a thousandth of a grain, a 
 minuteness of dose unheard of in the posologics of our materia 
 medica. Even a thousandth of a grain of arsenic must still be hurt- 
 ful and destructive, for it remains an uncontrollable poison, as we 
 suppose, affirm, conjecture and assert." 
 
 Even if this convenient asserting and conjecturing should here 
 for once have blundered upon the truth, still it is evident that the 
 virulence of the arsenic cannot increase but must decrease with 
 every further reduction of the dose, so that we must at length arrive 
 at such a dilution of the solution and such a diminution of the dose 
 as no longer in any way possesses the dangerous character of your 
 regulation dose of one- tenth of a grain. 
 
 "Such a dose would, indeed, be a noveltj^! What kind of a 
 dose w^ould it be ?" Novelty is indeed a capital crime in the eyes of 
 the orthodox school, settled down upon her old lees, a school which 
 subjects its reason to the tyranny of hoary routine. 
 
 But what pitiful rule should hinder the physician, w^ho ought by 
 rights to be a learned, thinking, independent man, a ruler of nature 
 in his own domain — what in the world should hinder him from mod- 
 erating a dangerous dose by diminishing its size ? 
 
 What should hinder him, if experience should show him that the 
 thousandth part of a grain is 3^et too strong a dose, from giving the 
 hundred-thousandth part, or the millionth part of a grain? And 
 should he find this last too violent in many cases, since in medicine 
 all depends on observation and experience (as medicine itself is nothing 
 but a science of experience) , what should hinder him from reducing 
 
ARSENICUM ALBUM. 325 
 
 tlie milliontli to a billionth ? And if also this prove too strong a dose 
 in many cases, who could prevent him from diminishing it to the 
 quadrillionth of a grain, or a smaller dose still ? Methinks I hear 
 vulgar stolidity croak out from the quagmire of its thousand-year-old 
 prejudices: Ha! ha! ha! A quadrillionth! Why that's nothing 
 at all! 
 
 Wh}^ not f Can the subdivision of a substance, be it carried ever 
 so far, bring forth anything else than parts of the whole ? Must not 
 these portions, reduced in size to the very verge of infinity, still con- 
 tinue to be something — something substantial, a part of the whole, 
 be it ever so minute ? What man of sound reason could contradict 
 this ? 
 
 And if this (quadrillionth, quintillionth, octillionth, decillionth) 
 continue still to be really an integral portion of the divided sub- 
 stance, as no rational man can deny, why should even so minute a 
 portion, seeing that it is really something, be unable to do anything, 
 considering that the whole was so tremendously powerful? But 
 what and how 7nuch this small part can do, can be determined by no 
 speculative reason or unreason, but experience alone must determine 
 this, and in the domain of facts thei^e is no appeal from experience. 
 It belongs to experience alone to determine if this small portion has 
 become too weak to avail anything against diseases, too weak to 
 remove the disease for which this medicine is in general suitable, 
 and to restore the patient to health. This is a matter to be settled 
 not by the dictatorial dictum from the study, but by experience 
 alone, which in this case is the only competent arbiter. But experi- 
 ence has already decided this question and continues to do so daih- 
 before the eyes of every unprejudiced person. 
 
 But when I have done with the wiseacre, who ridicules the small 
 doses of Homoeopathy as a nonentity, as effecting nothing, and who 
 never consults experience, I hear on the other side the hypocritical 
 stickler for caution, with as little investigation and with the same 
 recklessness, still inveigh against the danger of even the small doses 
 used in homoeopathic practice. 
 
 A few words then shall be added here for him. 
 
 If arsenic in the dose of a tenth of a grain be, in many cases, a 
 dangerous dose, must it not become milder in the dose of a thou- 
 sandth of a grain ? And, if so, must it not become still milder with 
 every further diminution of dose ? 
 
 Now if arsenic (like every other very powerful niodioinal sub- 
 stance) can, by nierel}^ diminishing its dose, be rendered so mild as 
 to be no longer dangerous to Hfe, then all we have to do is merely to 
 find by experiment how far the size of the dose nuist be diminished 
 
326 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 SO that it shall be small enough to do no harm, and yet large enough 
 to fully effect its office as a remedy of the diseases for which it is 
 suitable. 
 
 Experience, and experience alone, not the pedantry of the study, 
 not the narrow-minded, ignorant dogmatism of the schools, which 
 does not prove anything practically, can decide what dose, of such an 
 extremely powerful substance as arsenic, is so small that it can be 
 taken without danger, and yet remains so powerful as to be able to 
 effect all that this medicine (so invaluable when sufficiently mod- 
 erated in its action and selected for a suitable case of disease) was 
 from its nature ordained to do by the beneficent Creator. It must, 
 by dilution of its solution and diminution of the dose, be rendered 
 so mild that the strongest man can be freed by such a dose from a 
 disease for which it is the appropriate remedy, while this same dose 
 will be incapable of altering perceptibly the health of a healthy 
 infant.'''' This is the grand problem that can only be solved by 
 thousandfold experiments and trials, but not settled by the sophisti- 
 cal dogmatism of the schools with its guessing, its assertions and its 
 conjectures. 
 
 No rational phj^sician can acknowledge any such limitation to his 
 treatment as would be dictated to him by the rusty routine of the 
 schools, which is never guided by pure experiment combined with 
 reflection. His sphere of action is the restoration to health of the 
 sick, and the countless forces of nature are given to him unreservedly 
 by the Sustainer of Life as implements of healing; nothing being 
 excluded. To him whose calling it is to vanquish the disease that 
 brings its victim to the verge of corporeal annihilation and effect a 
 kind of recreation of life (a nobler work than most other, even those 
 most vaunted of mankind), to him the whole broad expanse of 
 nature with all her creative powers and substances must be available 
 in order to enable him to perform this curative act, if we may so call it. 
 But he must be at liberty to employ these agents in the exact quan- 
 tity, be it ever so small or ever so large, that experience and trials 
 show him to be most adapted to the end he has in view; in any form 
 
 "^A medicine homceopathically chosen, i. e., a medicine capable of produc- 
 ing a morbid condition very similar to the disease to be cured, touches only the 
 diseased side of the organism, therefore just the most excited, extremely sensi- 
 tive part of it. Therefore its dose must be so small as only to affect the dis- 
 eased part just a little more than the disease itself did. For this the smallest 
 dose suffices, one so small as to be incapable of altering the health of a healthy 
 person, who has not such points of contact sufficiently sensitive for this medi- 
 cine, or of making him ill, which only large doses of medicine can do. See 
 Organon of Medicine, | 277-279, and Spirit of the Homceopathic Medical Doc-

 whatever that reflection and experience have proved to be most val- 
 uable. All this he must be able to do without any limitation what- 
 soever, as is the right of a free man, of a deliverer of his fellow 
 creatures, and a restorer of life, equipped with all the knowledge 
 pertaining to his art and endowed with a god-like spirit and the 
 tenderest conscience. 
 
 From this God-serving and noblest of earthly occupations let all 
 hold aloof who are deficient in mind, in the judicial spirit, in any of 
 the branches of knowledge required for its exercise, or in tender 
 regard for the weal of mankind and a sense of their duty to humanity; 
 in one word, who are deficient in true virtue! Away with that un- 
 hallowed crew who merely assume the outward semblance of health- 
 restorers, but whose heads are full of vain deceit, whose hearts are 
 stuffed with wicked frivolity, whose tongues make a mock of truth 
 and whose hands prepare disaster. 
 
 The following observations are the result of doses of various 
 strength on persons of various sensitiveness: 
 
 An intelligent homoeopathic physician will not give this medi- 
 cine, even in its minimum dose, before he is convinced that its 
 peculiar symptoms have the greatest possible similarity with those of 
 the disease to be healed. But if this is the case it will surely cure. 
 
 But if in any case, from human fallibility, he should not have 
 made his selection appropriately, smelling once or several times of 
 Ipecacuanha, or Hepar sulphuris calcareum, or Nux vomica, accord- 
 ing to the circumstances, will remove the ill effects. 
 
 Such a use of arsenic has shown its curative powers in number- 
 less acute and chronic (psoric) diseases, and has then also at the 
 same time healed the following symptoms if present:

 The inclusion of Arsenic among the antipsorics seems to have been an afterthought, as it 
 comes in the original German edition, at the end of the alphabetical list of medicines, instead 
 of appearing in its proper place — to which in this translation it has been restored. Its patho- 
 genesis had already appeared in the Materia Medica Piira, where it contains 1,079 symptoms, 
 of which 697 are from Hahnemann himself and seven fellow-observers, and 382 from authors. 
 Of the two additional contributors mentioned here, "Hartlaub u. Trinks," stand for some 
 cases of poisoning, the symptoms of which they had extracted, in the first and third volumes 
 of their Arzneimittellehre ; and "Hering," for a number of aggravations and medicinal 
 symptoms occurring in leprous patients taking the drug (^rc/sz»., XI., 2, 19). These account 
 for 112 out of the 202 additional symptoms recorded here; the remainder are Hahnemann's, 
 obtained in his later manner, and Wahle's (eighteen in all) — a prover unnoticed in the preface, 
 but whose name frequently occurs among the second series of the Master's followers. — Hughes.

 Just as superstition, inexact observations and credulous conject- 
 ures have been the source of innumerable untrue statements as to 
 the virtue of medicines in the materia medica, so also lack of proving 
 and groundless theoretic reasons of physicians have with just a little 
 reason denied to exceedingly powerful, and therefore highly curative 
 substances ; all medicinal powers, and have thus deprived us of these 
 remedies. 
 
 Here I will only mention gold, and, indeed, not the gold 
 changed through the ordinary chemical processes, neither that 
 dissolved by acids, nor that which is separated again by precipi- 
 tation (the fulminating gold), both of which were also stated to be, 
 if not useless, still utterly injurious substances; probably because 
 they could not be given in a so-called jitsta do sis, i. e. , in an exces- 
 sive quantity, without incurring danger. 
 
 No! I speak of the pure gold, unchanged by any chemical 
 process. 
 
 This the modern physicians have declared to be entirely without 
 effect, and have finally omitted it altogether from all their teach- 
 ings of materia medica, and have thus deprived us of all its great 
 curative powers. 
 
 It was stated, that " it cannot be dissolved in the gastric juice. 
 and that it is, therefore, altogether without power or use." This 
 was their theoretical supposition, and such t/iavctical dicfa luwe 
 
 4 Pulse had not been pf eviously coxxwt&d..— Hughes. 
 
372 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 always, in medicine, had the force of conviction. As they do not ques- 
 tion experience — the onh" possible revealer in the healing art, which 
 rests altogether on experience — because it luas more convenient merely 
 to assert, they usually put bold afiirmation, theoretic, empty supposi- 
 tion and arbitrar^^ decrees in the place of well-founded truth. 
 
 The excuse, that older ph3^sicians also supposed gold to be with- 
 out an}- use or efficacy, will not here avail them. So, e. g,, Fabri- 
 Cius (in Obs. med.) says: "How could the slight heat of our 
 stomach have any effect on leaf- gold, when it loses nothing even in 
 the most \dolent fire?" Or Nic. Monardes (^de ferro, pp. 32, 33): 
 * ' The patients maj^ believe me and save the expense of putting gold 
 into their medicine; the}^ will in no wise gain from it any medicinal 
 virtue in their diseases." Or again, Alston {^N'at. Med., I., p. 69): 
 ' ' Since gold in its metallic state is not dissolved and can not be 
 changed by our vital force, it can not, therefore, have any medicinal 
 power, except such action as it ma}^ exert on the bowels by means of 
 its w^eight, hardness and mechanical form. Or, finally, J. F. 
 Gmeein (^Appar. med. min., I., p. 445): "Since gold is indestructi- 
 ble, cannot be dissolved into vapor, and cannot therefore combine 
 with the juices of the animal bodj^, it cannot therefore have an}^ 
 curative power. ' ' ^ 
 
 Nor can it serve them as an excuse if they can adduce many 
 other old phj^sicians as deniers of the medicinal powders of gold, and 
 can name men like Ant. Musa Brassavolus, Fel. Platerus, 
 HiER. Card ANUS, Jo. Bravus Petrafit, Franc. Pic. Miran- 
 DOLA, Merinus Mercenius, Duretus, Camerarius, Cordosus, 
 CoNringius, Lemary, Angeeus Saea, and even Joh. Schroeder, 
 so credulous in other matters. 
 
 They are all wrong, and with them all the modern physicians. 
 
 Gold has great mediciyial virtues which cannot be supplied by any- 
 thing else. At first I allow^ed m3'self to be kept back by these 
 deniers from hoping to find any medicinal virtues in pure gold; but 
 as I could not be satisfied in believing that any metal was, in itself, 
 without medicinal virtues, I first made use of gold in solution. 
 From this experiment were derived the few symptoms of the solution 
 of gold. I then would give, where the symptoms would lead me to 
 its homoeopathic use with patients, one quintillionth or a sextillionth 
 
 ^ It was very silly to desire to decide theoretically the question whether 
 gold could have any curative virtues; all that was necessary was but to gather 
 conviction b}^ trials and experience, whether gold has or has not medicinal 
 powers. If it has medicinal virtues then all the theoretical hypotheses of 
 denial are ludicrous. 
 
AURUM, GOIvD. 373 
 
 of a grain of gold solution as a dose, and found even here a similar 
 curative virtue as I afterwards discovered in pure gold. 
 
 But I am in general, on the score of pure simplicity, unwilling, 
 where I can avoid it, to use the metals combined with acids, as they 
 must surel}^ suffer a change of their virtues through these acids. This 
 ma}^ be seen at once on comparing the medicinal powers of the cor- 
 rosive sublimate with those of the blackish protoxid of mercury. It 
 was, therefore, to me a welcome fact to find a series of Arabic phy- 
 sicians who unanimousl}^ extolled the virtues of gold used in a fine 
 powder, and this in states of disease which sorely need help, and in 
 which the solution of gold had already in part done wonderful 
 service; a circumstance which was bound to give me confidence in 
 the asseverations of the Arabs. 
 
 The first trace of this use of gold we find as early as the eighth 
 century, where Gebkr i^de Alchimia traditio, Argent, ap. Zetznkr, 
 1698, Lib. II., P. III., Cap. 32) praises gold as a " materia laetificans 
 et in juventnte corpus conservans ' ' (a substance that gladdens and 
 preserves the body in youth). 
 
 At the end of the tenth century Skrapion the younger {De 
 simplicibus coinment. Venet. fol. ap. Junt. 1550, Cap. 415, p. 192) 
 says: " Powdered gold serves in melancholy and in weakness of the 
 heart." 
 
 Then, in the beginning of the eleventh century, Avicenna 
 {Canon, Lib. II., Cap. 79) says: " Powdered gold is added to medi- 
 cines against melancholy; it cures the fetid odor of the mouth, and 
 taken internally, it is even a curative in the falling out of the hair; it 
 strengthens the eyes, helps in cardialgia and palpitation of the heart, 
 and is extremely useful in asthma."-^) 
 
 The preparation of such a gold powder is first described in the 
 beginning of the twelfth century by Abui^kasem (Ai^bucasis) (in 
 libro servitoris de prcBp. med., p. 242): "The gold miist be rubbed 
 on rough linen in a basin full of water, and the fine powder that 
 settles at the bottom of the water must be used." Johann von 
 St. Am and (in the thirteenth century) teaches the preparation in 
 the same manner, in the apendix to MesuE, Opera, Venet., 1561, p. 
 245, 4 E. 
 
 Zacutus, the Portuguese, imitated this and he describes ^Lfist. 
 medic., lib. I., obs. 33) the case of a nobleman, who had been for a 
 long time tormented by melancholj^ phantasies, and whom he cured 
 
 ^'This latter word is in Arabic an ambiguous expression, meaning, according 
 as the word is accentuated, either: " talking with oneself" or " asthma." The 
 curative virtue of gold, as shown by experience, shows that the latter is here 
 the true meaning- of the word. 
 
374 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 within a month solely by the finely comminuted powder of gold, pre" 
 pared on a grindstone. 
 
 We do not now need the further praises of the gold powder and 
 of gold, as found in Jo. Platearius {quaest therap.), Rodericus A 
 Castro {de Meteor, microcosm, Cap. 3), Abraham a Porta Leonis 
 {^dialog, de Auro), Zaccharias a Puteo, Joh. Dan. Mylius 
 Anatomia Auri), Horn (^Ephem. Nat. Cur. Dec. II., an7i. 3, obs^ 
 159), Fr. Baco (yHistor. vitce et mortis), Fr. Joseph Burrhi {Epist. 
 4 ad. Thorn. Barthol. de oculis), Jo. Jacob Waldschmiedt {Diss, de 
 auro ejusque in medic, viribus, Gryphisv, 1703), Lemnius, Pet. 
 FORESTUS, Ol.. BORRICHIUS, ROLFINCK, AnDR. I^AGNER, KTT- 
 
 muei^IvER, Tackius, HeIvCHER (Diss, de Auro, Jen., 1730), PoTE- 
 Rius, J. D. HoRSTius, HoLivERius, HcEFER and ZwELFER (Pkarm, 
 August). I believed that I might well prefer the testimony of the 
 Arabians concerning the curative virtues of the fine powder of gold 
 to the theoretic doubts of the moderns supported by no experiment; 
 I therefore rubbed the finest leaf -gold (of 23 carat 6 grains fineness) 
 with 100 parts of sugar of milk for a full hour, in order to apply it 
 to internal medicinal use. 
 
 I do not wish to decide whether in this fine powder the gold was 
 merely still further comminuted, or was also somewhat oxidized by 
 this vigorous trituration. It is sufficient that in proving this prepara- 
 tion 100 grains of this powder (containing one grain of gold) sufficed 
 with some healthy adults, with others, however, 200 grains (con- 
 taining two grains of gold) dissolved in water, to excite very strong 
 changes in the state of their health, and to cause the symptoms 
 enumerated below. 
 
 From these it will be seen that the asseverations of the Arabs 
 cannot have been without foundation, as even small doses of this 
 metal, used in the form mentioned, caused very similar S3'mptoms of 
 disease in healthy persons to those which these orientals (who are 
 not without merit in discovering medicines) had healed (uncon- 
 sciously in accordance with the Homoeopathic principles). 
 
 Of melancholies, resembling that caused by gold, I have since 
 cured quickly and permanently several persons who were seriously 
 entertaining suicidal intentions, and, indeed, by small doses, which 
 for the whole cure did not contain more than -ywo or yf q- of a grain 
 of gold. So I have also cured several other difficult maladies, which 
 in their symptoms showed similarities to those of gold. I have no 
 doubt that much more attenuated preparations of the gold powder 
 will be quite sufficient to attain this same purpose. 
 
 Some time after closing this preliminary account I had the oppor- 
 
AURUM, GOI.D. 375 
 
 tunity of convincing myself that a hundredfold attenuation of the 
 above-mentioned preparation (the gold triturated with loo parts of 
 sugar of milk), thus the .0001 part of a grain of gold as a dose 
 proved itself no less effective in causing a cure, especially in caries of 
 the bones of the palate and nose, produced by the abuse of salts of 
 mercury. The symptoms of gold for this homoeopathic cure may 
 easily be found in this list. 
 
 By further triturations and dilutions, the virtue of gold is still 
 more developed and spiritualized, so that I now need for such curative 
 effects but a very small part of a grain of the decillionth attenuation. 
 
 Would the ordinary proceedings of our physicians, which con- 
 sist in fabricating medicinal virtues from airy hypotheses, and who 
 decry this product in their Materia Medica, have ever succeeded in 
 discovering the wonderful virtues of a metal, which their learned art 
 of conjecture had already condemned as totally powerless? Or by 
 what other favorite method of our manufacturers of Materia Medica 
 could we ever have found out the curative side of gold, if its symp- 
 toms creating a similar morbid state had not loudly and with full 
 certainty taught it to the homoeopathic physician ? 
 
 Poor, fabulous Materia Medica of the ordinary kind! How far do 
 you stay behind those revelations which medicines unequivocally 
 reveal of their effects on the healthy human body in causing 
 those morbid symptoms which the homoeopathic physician is sure 
 to be able to apply with unfailing success in the cure of natural 
 diseases ! 
 
 The period of activity of gold in moderate doses is at least twenty- 
 one days. 
 
 An antidote to its excessive effects has been found in the smelling 
 of a potentized preparation of crude coffee, and more especially of 
 camphor. 
 
 Gold has especially proved itself useful in chronic diseases when 
 the following ailments predominate, or at least were simultaneously 
 present. 
 
 Hypochondria; melancholy; surfeit of life; impulse to suicide ; rush 
 of blood to the head \_Lh.~\; caries of the bones of the palate and the 
 nose; obscuration of the vision through black dots floating before the 
 eye; toothache /rom rush of blood to the head zuith heat in it; inguinal 
 hernia; induration of the testes of long-standing; prolapsus and in- 
 duration of the uterus; rush of blood to the chest: falling down uncon-

 BARYTA CARBONICA. 
 
 (Crystalline muriate of baryta is finely powdered, boiled for a 
 few minutes with 6 parts of alcohol, to remove any muriate of 
 strontia that may be present ; the remaining powder is dissolved in 
 six parts of boiling distilled water and precipitated with weak am- 
 monium, say a solution of sal ammoniac in water. The precipi- 
 tated baryta is washed several times with distilled water and then 
 dried.) 
 
 One grain of this bartya is first brought to the millionth powder 
 attenuation, and then being dissolved, it is diluted and potentized to 
 the decillionth degree (X) as taught in the direction for the prepara- 
 tion of drj^ antipsoric remedies in part I. 
 
 A few of the smallest pellets, moistened with this medicine 
 and put into a powder of sugar of milk, form a dose which 
 will prove efficient of good for over 40-48 days, if the medicine was 
 selected homoeopathically suitable to the case of disease. 
 
 This antipsoric medicine may be used very advantageously in 
 many cases, and is especially serviceable where the following ail- 
 ments are among the chronic ills to be cured : 
 
 Weeping mood; anxiety about domestic affairs; shyness as to 
 strange persons and as to social meetings; headache close above the 
 eyes; the head easily catches cold; eruption on the head; baldness of

 The symptoms marked with a dash before them ( — ) were caused 
 by acetate of baryta. 
 
 Smelling of a solution of camphor proved an alleviation of the 
 excessive effects of baryta, and smelling of a highly potentized solu- 
 tion of zinc removes the troublesome symptoms of baryta.

 Borax. — Transl. 
 
 Baryta carbonica first appeared in the edition of 182S, where it contains 2S6 symptoms. 
 The present list is made up of these ; of the results of proving the acetate reported by Adams. 
 Gross, Hartmann, Rueckert and Stapf in Vol. III. of the Archiv. (1S24); and of a pathogenesis 
 of the carbonate furnished by Hartlaub and Nenning to the third Vol. of Hartlauband Trink's

 BORAX, BIBORATE OF SODA.^ 
 
 This crystalline salt is useful for soldering and as flux in technical 
 works. This salt in its crude form was originally for several cen- 
 turies, brought by the Venetians from the East Indies, especially 
 from lakes in Thibet ; therefore it is still called borax veneta; it after- 
 wards was refined by the Dutch, by a process which they kept secret, 
 and was then brought into commerce. In later times, however, it has 
 been manufactured by the French, by an addition of soda to a kind 
 of boracic acid brought from some hot springs and lakes of Tuscany 
 in the neighborhood of Sasso. 
 
 Borax consists of 22 parts boracic acid, 32 parts soda and 46 of 
 water in the hundred; it is consequently not fully neutralized by its 
 acid {aciduTfi boraciamt, sal sedativicm Hovibe^'gii) ^ which appears in 
 shiny scales, of a taste slightly acid, and which is yet to be proved as 
 to its pure, and surely important, symptoms. 
 
 In household practice, borax has been for a long time empirically 
 used in solution against the aphthae of children and for facilitating 
 the labor-pains of parturient women. 
 
 Antidotes of borax are: Coffea criida against its sleeplessness and 
 headache; Chamomilla against the pains of the swelling of the cheeks. 
 Wine aggravates the symptoms, especially those of the chest, and 
 vinegar reproduces the ailments that have been alread}^ removed, 
 especially the stitches in the chest. 
 
 The symptoms marked (^Sr. ) were observed by Dr. Schreter, of 
 Hungary, in various persons.

 ifiorax appears foi" the first time in this edition, and Hahnemann's symptoms con-

 several persons " on whom Schreter observed his symptoms would seem to have been of this 
 kind, thongh 107 of the latter, fir.st appearing in Hartlanb and Trink's Ainm.'en. may have

 Calcarea when potentized has a long-continued action. When 
 nitric acid, given previously, though selected apparently properly, 
 yet acts in some respects unfavorably, then Calcarea may generall}^ 
 be profitably employed; so also any unfavorable effects of Calcarea, 
 even when selected apparentl}^ homceopathicall}^, ma}^ be neutralized 
 by following it with nitric acid, and the effects will be changed into 
 favorable ones Especially is nausea, produced by Calcarea, removed 
 by smelling of the spirits of nitre; this is almost a specific and much 
 more effective than smelling of camphor. There are, however, 
 troublesome effects which call for the smelling of nux vomica. Cal- 
 carea is frequently useful after the use of sulphur, also when the 
 pupils of the eyes are apt to dilate. 
 
 If the catamenia usually come several da3^s before the period and 
 are excessive, Calcarea is frequently the indispensable curative, and 
 the more so, the more abundant the flow. But if the menses always 
 appear at the right period or later, even if the menses are profuse, 
 Calcarea is yet but rarely useful. Calcarea can rarely be advanta- 
 geously repeated with older persons, even after other intervening 
 medicines, and very rarely, yea, hardly ever, can its doses be repeated 
 at once, without injury. But with children, when it is indicated by 
 the symptoms, it may be repeated several times, and the younger 
 they are, the more frequently. 
 
 The symptoms marked with a dash ( — ) before them were the 
 effects of acetate of lime.

 CARBO ANIMALIS, ANIMAL CHARCOAL. 
 
 [To prepare the animal charcoal, lay a thick piece of ox-leather between the red-hot 
 coals and allow it to burn, until the last little flame disappears and then quickh^ place the 
 glowing piece between two flat stones, so that it may be suddenly extinguished, as else it 
 would continue to glimmer in the open air, destroying the coal for the most part.] 
 
 However much similarity there may be found in the effects of 
 animal charcoal and of vegetable charcoal on the state of human 
 health, there are, nevertheless, so many variations in the effects of 
 animal charcoal from those found in vegetable charcoal, and so manj^ 
 particular S3^mptoins, that I have thought it useful to add here what 
 I have been able to observe. 
 
 The animal charcoal is prepared like the other antipsoric remedies 
 up to the decillionth, potentized attenuation, and one or two small 
 pellets, moistened with it, are given as a dose in the various degrees 
 of potency. Camphor has proved itself an antidote and a means of 
 relieving its too violent action with persons who were too sensiti\-e.

 A pathogenesis of this substance, probabh' (as with its vegetable congener), made 
 with the 3d trituration, first saw the light in Vol. VI of the second edition of the Materia 
 Medica Pura (1S27). It contained 191 sj-mptoms contributed b\- Hahnemann himself and a Dr. 
 Adams. It reappeared in Vol. Ill of the Chronic Diseases. The s^-mptoms of Hartlaub and 
 Trinks (254 in number), in the third volume of their Arzneimittellehre, have no name 
 attached, but are probably Henning's. From these printed sources, from his own later 
 observations on patients and from 23 symptoms (probabh' of the same kind), supplied by 
 Wahle, Hahnemann has compiled the present Vi'sX.—Hiighes.

 CARBO VEGETABILIS, WOOD CHARCOAL. 
 
 The charcoal of any kind of wood, thoroughly heated to redness, 
 seems to manifest itself uniformly in its effects on the human health, 
 when it has been prepared and potentized in the manner which Horn- 
 
520 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 oeopathy uses. I employ the charcoal of birch wood; in some of the 
 provings b}^ others the charcoal of the red beech was used. 
 
 Formerly charcoal was considered by physicians as non-medicinal 
 and powerless. Empiricism only added it in its most highl}^ composite 
 powders, e. g., for epilepsy, the charcoal of the linden tree, without 
 "being able to adduce any proof of the efficacy of this particular sub- 
 stance. Only in recent times, since LowiTz, in St. Petersburg, 
 discovered the chemical properties of wood charcoal, especiall}^ its 
 power of removing from putrid and mould}^ substances their bad 
 odor, and of preserving fluids from fetid smell, ph3'sicians began to 
 use it externall}^ (iatro-chemically). They advised rinsing the 
 mouth of fetid odor -v^nth powdered charcoal, and covered old putrid 
 ulcers with the same powder, and the fetor was in both instances 
 almost instantaneously" alleviated. Also when administered intern- 
 ally in the dose of several drachms it removed the fetor of the stools 
 in autumnal d3^sentery. 
 
 But this medicinal use was, as before mentioned, only a chemical 
 use, but not a dynamic employment penetrating into the internal 
 sphere of life. The mouth rinsed out with it only remained odorless 
 for a few hours; the ill smell returned every day. The old ulcer was 
 not improved by its application, and the fetor, chemically removed 
 from it for the moment, was always renewed; it w^as no cure. The 
 charcoal powder taken in autumnal dysentery only chemicallj^ 
 removed the fetor of the stools for a short time, but the disease 
 remained and the nauseous smell of the stools quickly returned. 
 
 In such a coarse, pulverized state, charcoal can exercise no 
 other than a chemical action. A considerable quantity of wood 
 charcoal in its ordinary crude form may be swallowed without pro- 
 ducing the slightest alteration in the health. 
 
 It is only by prolonged trituration of the charcoal (as of many 
 other dead and apparently powerless medicinal substances) wdth a 
 non-medicinal substance, such as sugar of milk, and by dissolving 
 this preparation and potentizing (shaking) these solutions, that the 
 dynamic medicinal power concealed within, and which in the crude 
 state is combined, and so to say slumbering and sleeping (latent), 
 can be awakened and brought to life; but then its material external 
 must vanish. 
 
 The various degrees of potency are emplo3^ed according to the 
 var^^ing intention in healing, down from the decillion-potenc}^ to the 
 million-powder-attenuation, using one, two or three fine pellets 
 moistened therewith as a dose. 
 
 Arsenic, camphor and raw coffee have been found antidotes of 
 charcoal, but the spirits of nitre seem to be more efl&cient.

 CAUSTICUM, CAUSTIC SUBSTANCE. 
 
 Lime, in the state of marble, owes its insolubility in water and 
 its mildness to an acid of the lowest order which is combined with 
 it; when heated to red heat the marble allows this acid to escape as 
 a gas. During this process the marble, as burned lime, has received 
 (besides the latent heat) another substance into its composition, 
 w^hich substance, unknown to chemistry, gives to it its caustic 
 propert}^ as w^ell as its solubilit}^ in the water, whereb}' we obtain 
 lime-water. This substance, though itself not an acid, gives to it its 
 caustic virtue, and hx adding a fluid acid (which will endure fire), 
 which then combines with the lime b}^ its closer affinit}', the water}^ 
 caustic (Hj^dras Caustici?) is separated b}' distillation. 
 
 Take a piece of freshly burned lime of about two pounds, dip this 
 piece into a vessel of distilled water for about one minute, then la}^ it 
 
CAUSTICUM. 559 
 
 in a dr}' dish, in which it will soon turn into powder with the 
 development of much heat and its peculiar odor, called lime- vapor. 
 Of this fine powder take two ounces and mix with it in a (warmed) 
 porcelain triturating bowl a solution of two ounces of bisulphate of 
 potash, which has been heated to red heat and melted, cooled again 
 and then pulverized and dissolved in two ounces of boiling hot water. 
 This thickish mixture is put into a small glass retort, to which the 
 helm is attached with wet bladder; into the tube of the helm is 
 inserted the receiver half submerged in water; the retort is warmed 
 by the gradual approach of a charcoal fire below and all the fluid is 
 then distilled over by applying the suitable heat. The distilled fluid 
 will be about an ounce and a half of watery clearness, containing in 
 concentrated form the substance mentioned above, i.e., Causticum; 
 it smells like the lye of caustic potash. On the back part of the 
 tongue the caustic tastes very astringent, and in the throat burning; 
 it freezes onl}^ in a lower degree of cold than water, and it hastens 
 the putrefaction of animal substances immersed in it. When Muriate 
 of Baryta is added, the causticum shows no sign of sulphuric acid, 
 and on adding oxalate of ammonia it shows no traces of lime. 
 
 Of this distillate put one drop in vial filled about ^3 with 99 or 
 100 drops of alcohol, potentize the mixture by ten successive strokes 
 and continue in this manner through 29 similar vials with alcohol, 
 developing each attenuation and potency with ten successive strokes, 
 carrying it to the decillionth (causticum X) dynamic development. 
 
 One or at most two of the smallest pellets moistened with this 
 fluid constitute the dose of this mighty antipsoric; the duration of 
 its action often extends far beyond 50 days. 
 
 In the second volume of the '' Reine Arznei7nittellehre' ' there is 
 mentioned a (less pure) preparation of causticum under the name of 
 Caustic- tincture, but the proving of this remedy as to its peculiar 
 effects on the changes of human health was yet very imperfect. But 
 after I had recognized its antipsoric virtues, its proving was com- 
 pleted in the following list of symptoms, and thus the homoeopathic 
 selection of this great antipsoric for the appropriate cases was 
 rendered possible, which with the lesser number of symptoms was 
 frequently impossible without making injurious mistakes. 
 
 As an antidote to its too violent action with ver}^ excitable 
 patients, smelling of sweet .spirits of nitre will serve, presumably 
 also the tincture of crude coffee. 
 
 Causticum ma}^ be advantageously repeated after the intermediate 
 use of other antipsoric remedies, when it is again homceopathically 
 indicated; but it should always be used in a different degree of 
 potency.

 The pathogenesis of Causticum has quite a history belonging to it. In the Fragvienta de 
 Viribus (1805) Hahnemann published thirty symptoms as obtained by him from a substance 
 he called " Acris tinctura." In the first and second editions of the Materia Medica Pura ap- 
 pears a more extensive pathogenesis of this preparation now called "Aetzstoff Tinctur— 
 Tinctura acris sine Kali." To this (in its latest form containing 307 symptoms) belong the 
 observations of Becher, Franz, Hartmann, Herrmann, Hornburg, lyanghammer and Stapf 
 and over 100 of Hahnemann's. In the third edition (1833) the drug is not included, and con- 
 sequently it is not to be found in Dudgeon's translation of the work. This was because in 
 1830 Hahnemann had transferred its pathogenesis to the Chronic Diseases where it has 1014 
 symptoms, among which are those already published, the new ones being furnished b}' him- 
 self and Rummel. It is now called simply Aetzstoff" or " Causticum," and is differently 
 prepared. In Volume III of their Arzneimittellehre Hartlaub and Triiiks give, from Nen- 
 ning's hand, nine symptoms from the older and seventy-three from the newer preparation. 
 From these materials with Hahnemann's own later observations is made up the symptom- 
 list now translated. — Hughes.

 CLEMATIS ERECTA. VIRGIN'S BOWER/ 
 
 This perennial herb grows in hedges and b}^ fences on hilly 
 heights. It is gathered shortly before its time of blossoming, and the 
 acrid juice is pressed out from its leaves. After being homoeopathic- 
 ally prepared, it is used in its various degrees of potentized attenua- 
 tion in small doses, to cure many ailments arising from the mercurial 
 malady, complicated with psora. It has thus been found useful in 
 severe eruptions on the head and the skin, in particular urinarj^ 
 troubles, stricture of the urethra, and peculiar varieties of very 
 troublesome inflammations of the eyes. Medical Counselor Stapf 
 has found this medicine serviceable in inflammations of the testes 
 and indurated testicular swellings after badly treated gonorrhoea. 
 In earlier times A. von Stoerk^^ has praised its virtues from experi- 
 ence,, even in cancerous ulcers of the lips and the breasts, in spongy

 COLOCYNTHIS. BITTER CUCUMBER. 
 
 When preparing the medicine from the colocynthis, it is best to 
 fake a grain of the dried fruit of this cucumber-Hke plant (Cucumis 
 colocynthis) and triturate it with sugar of milk for three hours, in 
 the manner indicated at the end of volume I. , so as to get the mil- 
 lionth potency; this is then dissolved and brought to the decillionth 
 potency, so that we can use it in all its various grades of dynamiza- 
 tion according to the nature of the circumstances of the disease. 
 When well prepared it is of enormous virtue even in the smallest 
 dose. 
 
 Camphor, causticum, crude coffee and staphisagria are used as 
 antidotes of the bitter cucumber. 
 
 It has proved itself especially efficacious in the following ailments: 
 Anxiety; lack of religious feeling; porrigo in the face; toothache; 
 stomachache, also after eating; violent colics, especially after vexa- 
 tion; grumbling in the abdomen; inguinal hernia; long- continued 
 diarrhoea; pain as from a bruise in the shoulder- j oint after vexation; 
 ill consequences and troubles springing from indignation and embitter- 
 ment, or hiternal, gnawing mortification over the unworthy treatment 
 of himself or of other persons who excited his pity; e. g., cramp in the 
 calves and the intestines; cramp-colic, bilious colic, bilious fever, 
 insomnia, etc.; pains in the hips, where the hip-joint feels as if it 
 were fastened to the pelvis and sacral region as if with iron clasps, 
 attended with pains darting down periodically from the lumbar mus- 
 cles into the thigh. 
 
 The chief characteristic of colocynthis is the excitation of cramp- 
 pains in the internal and external parts, i. e., tonic spasms, with 
 squeezing pressive pains, and then staphisagria is the antidote. Also 
 the drinking of coffee and camphor antidote its injurious action.

 CONIUM MACULATUM. HEMLOCK. 
 
 [The juice freshlj^ pressed from the whole herb, just as it has begun to bloom, is m.ixed 
 with an equal quantity of alcohol. As is done in Homoeopathy with all the plant-juices 
 which are preser\-ed from corruption in this manner, two drops of this mixture are dropped 
 into a vial which is filled two-thirds full with loo drops of alcohol ; it is well-stopped and 
 shaken with ten strokes of the arm. One drop is then further diluted through twenty-nine 
 other such vials (each containing loo drops of alcohol), and each attenuation is thus poten- 
 tized by ten succussive strokes to the decillionth (X) dynamization. But instead of this we 
 might also triturate two grains of the fresh leaves of this plant with sugar of milk to the 
 millionth powder attenuation, within three hours, and then, dissolving this preparation, 
 potentize it further.] 
 
 The considerable medicinal power of this plant may easily be 
 concluded from what was published in the 3'ears 1 700-1 779, by 
 Stoerck and his manj^ imitators in numerous books, concerning the 
 great results obtained from Conium maculatmn. But frequentl}^ as 
 its wonderful help was proved, at least in the beginning, by its use 
 in the most horrible diseases, just as often, yea far oftener, its use in 
 the favorite large doses, frequently repeated, has done harm, fre- 
 quently irretrievable harm, and killed not a few men. 
 
 The riddle thus presented hy so man}^ startling experiences, 
 sometimes so joyous, and then again so sad, with observers mostly 
 honest, who nevertheless contradicted each other in such down-right 
 fashion, could onl}^ be solved by Homoeopathy in these latter days. 
 For Homoeopath}^ has first shown, that in order to use heroic medi- 
 cines in a beneficent manner, and thus really to heal, we must not 
 (as has hitherto been done) assault any 2uiknown disease straightway 
 
CONIUM MACUIvATUM. 627 
 
 with frequent doses as large as practicable of a violent unknown 
 remedy, but "that after previously fully proving and investigating 
 the peculiar virtues of a medicine on healthy men the remedy must 
 then be used onl}^ in morbid states, the symptoms of which have great 
 similarity with those of the medicine; and this must be done by 
 means of the minutest doses of the higher and highest attenuations, 
 prepared by appropriate dynamization. " 
 
 This contrasts, indeed, greatly with the doses of that time which 
 were increased even to 140 grains of the thickened juice (extract), 
 or to a wine-glass full of the freshly expressed juice of the hemlock, 
 given, perhaps, six times a day. But then no true Homoeopath will 
 miss applying it properly — nor will hundreds of patients be tortured 
 to death with it, as in former days. 
 
 Those many, terrifying examples prevented me from recognizing 
 sooner in this plant one of the most important antipsoric medicines; 
 it is only within the last few years that I have given it its rightful 
 place. 
 
 In order to act beneficially, this remedy must often be preceded 
 by some other antipsoric medicines. It is given in the smallest doses. 
 
 More or less smelling of the sweet spirits of nitre, and in some 
 cases also a drink of coffee, will moderate the excessive effects of this 
 drug.

 following symptoms, more than others, were relieved or removed, 
 even where the complaint appeared in separate paroxysms:

 CUPRUM. COPPER. 
 
 Apiece of pure metallic copper is rubbed upon a hard, fine whet- 
 stone under distilled water in a porcelain bowl. The fine powder 
 that sinks to the bottom is dried, and then like other metallic po wa- 
 ders, it is raised by three hours' trituration with sugar of milk to the 
 millionth potency, then by the attenuation and potentizing succes- 
 sion of the solution of one grain of this powder, it is brought to the 
 decillionth dynamical development. One or two fine pellets, 
 moistened with the medicinal fluid of one of these degrees of po- 
 tency, according to the circumstances of the invalid, are used as a 
 dose. 
 
 Physicians have always been deterred from the internal use of 
 this medicine in diseases, owing to the not infrequent accidental 
 cases of poisoning by means of this metal and its solutions, and 
 the consequences, fearful, if not fatal, arising from its use. 
 
 F. G. VoiGTEiv in his Materia Medica adduces the following ef- 
 fects of copper : "Loathing, nausea, anxieties and vomiting, even 
 after a few minutes, disagreeable burning in the mouth, ineffectual 
 retching, violent pains in the stomach after several hours, obstruc- 
 tion to the intestinal evacuations, or excessively violent discharges, 
 then also bloody diarrhoea, constant restlessness, insomnia, exhaus- 
 tion, weak and small pulse, cold sweat, paleness of the face, pains 
 in the whole body or in particular parts, pain in the thyroid carti- 
 lage, pain in the hypochondria, formicating sensation in the vertex, 
 palpitation of the heart, vertigo, painful constriction of the chest, 
 cough with interrupted, almost suppressed respiration, excessively 
 hurried breathing, spitting of blood, hiccup, unconsciousness, eyes 
 with a wandering look — also at times convulsions, ravings, apoplexy, 
 paralysis and death. ' ' 
 
 Only Homoeopathy, owing to her peculiar method of preparing 
 medicines, and the greatly diminished size of her doses, is able to

658 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 use in healing even those natural substances which have shown 
 themselves as invincibly harmful, even in small quantities. 
 
 Most of the violent symptoms with those poisoned with 
 copper, are wont to appear in groups, lasting for a half or a whole 
 hour, and they are apt to recur from time to time in renewed at- 
 tacks with an almost identical composition of the symptoms, e. g. : 
 Palpitation, vertigo, coughing, hemoptysis, painful constriction of 
 the chest, suppressed respiration — or again: pressive pain on the 
 chest, weariness, vacillation of sight, closing of the eyes, uncon- 
 sciousness, rapid, moaning respiration, tossing about, cold feet, 
 hiccough, tussiculation, checking the respiration, etc. Copper is, 
 therefore, all the more homoeopathically indicated in diseases that 
 show themselves in such irregular attacks of similar groups of 
 symptoms, as is the case with copper. 
 
 The chief sphere of the appropriate application of copper seems, 
 therefore, to lie in various kinds of partial or general clonic spasms, 
 some kinds of St. Vitus' dance (N'lemann), epilepsis, {Aretcsus, 
 Duncan, Koechlhi), whooping-cough, cutaneous eruptions, old ul- 
 cers, and especially also spasmodic affections, accompanied with too 
 sensitive and acute senses; it has also proved itself indispensable for 
 the prevention of the murderous cholera, or for its cure where it 
 had been already developed. 
 
 The antidotes, where copper articles have been swallowed, are 
 solutions of (potash-soaps anH) hepar sulphuris calcareum, as well 
 as the w^hite of eggs, highly praised from his own experience by 
 07'fLla. Dynamic ailments, resulting from the excessive effects of 
 copper-medicine, may be mostly removed b}^ repeated smelling of 
 camphor dissolved in alcohol; but we also count among its anti- 
 dotes, Bell., Chin., Cocc, Dulc, Hep. sulph., Ip., Merc, and Nux 
 vomica. 
 
 The action of the copper-medicine seems to extend over only a 
 few days. 
 
 As an antipsoric remedy, copper has among others removed also 
 the following symptoms: 
 
 Discouragement; headache after epileptic attacks; pains in the 
 head, as if it were hollow; pressive pain in the e^^es; tearing, ex- 
 tending from the teeth into the temples; water-brash, after drinking 
 milk; nocturnal micturition; stoppage of the nose; some kinds of 
 whooping-cough; burning in the soles of the feet; sweating of the 
 feet; suppressed sweat of the feet; old ulcers; long continued lassi- 
 tude; nervous disorders with too great subtlety and acuteness of the 
 senses; some kinds of epilepsy; jerking in sleep; chills after epileptic 
 attacks.

DIGITALIS. 671 
 
 DIGITALIS PURPUREA. FOXGLOVE. 
 
 This plant, which grows wild on open mountainous plateaux, is 
 one of the most powerful medicinal substances of the vegetable 
 kingdom; it has been frequently abused by the physicians of the old 
 school, who sought to gain consideration through violent action on 
 the patient, without considering of what nature this action might be; 
 for they had not knowledge sufficient to apply this remedy to the 
 various diseases for which it is suitable. Countless murders have 
 thus been committed by men who were not conversant with its pure 
 effects. In extremely rare instances, when they unconsciously used 
 it in cases where the disease-symptoms had a striking similarity 
 to those produced by foxglove, they produced wonders by rapid 
 cures. The true Homoeopath will never use it injuriously, but 
 always for the salvation of his patients; he will not consider it indi- 
 cated by a quick pulse, as has been customary in the old school; for 
 though in its first effects it greatly retards the pulse, in its after 
 effects it causes so much greater an acceleration through the counter 
 effects of the vital force. 
 
 The homoeopathic medicine is prepared from this plant by dyna- 
 mizing one drop of its freshly expressed juice, mixed with ninety- 
 nine drops of alcohol, by ten strong succussive strokes, which is 
 then repeated in twenty-nine other vials, as has been taught at the 
 conclusion of Part I. of the Chronic Diseases as to the second method. 
 Instead of this we can triturate two grains of the fresh herb with one 
 hundred grains of sugar of milk, and then develop it to the thirtieth 
 potency of its medicinal powers, as is usually done with dry medicinal 
 substances. 
 
 In its homoeopathic use, this medicine need only be given in the 
 smallest dose, and if even such a dose should produce too violent 
 effects, repeated smelling of a solution of Camphor will serve to 
 moderate its action. Nux vomica and Opium are also said to have 
 been found useful as antidotes. A cautious physician, however, will 
 hardly ever need antidotes. By spirits of nitre the action of digitalis 
 is immensely increased. Digitalis has a long period of action.

 * A very rare alternating action of foxglove, and only when given in a dose

 secretion of urine and with other symptoms found among the pure primary 
 effects of digitalis. The copious, often involuntar}^ flow of urine, or diuresis, 
 resulting from the use of digitalis, is merely a counter effect of the organism, in 
 answer to the above mentioned primary effect of the drug.

 "^The most usual and assured phenomenon from foxglove is, that after 
 the preliminary slowness of the pulse (primary action), after some days the 
 reverse (reaction or secondary action), a much quicker and smaller pulse, is 
 permanently induced by the vital force. This shows how much the physicians 
 of the old school are at fault, who endeavor to produce a permanently slower 
 pulse by foxglove, and thus frequently kill.

 This medicine has a long duration of action, and its excessive 
 action is moderated by camphor. 
 
 It is said to have shown itself useful thus far in diseases in which 
 the following were some of the ailments: Boring and burning in the 
 forehead; sensation as if there was a board before the forehead; 
 scrofulous inflammation of the e3^es; incipient amaurosis; crusta 
 lactea; cough with hoarseness; catarrh of the bladder, with urinary 
 troubles; a sort of whooping cough, after taking a cold; tearing pains 
 in the limbs after a cold; humid, suppurating herpes; herpetic erup- 
 tion, with glandular swellings, etc. 
 
 It will be found sp:cific in some epidemic fevers, also in various 
 acute diseases brought on by cold.

 EUPHORBIUM. 
 
 This gum-resin contains about two-fifth of genuine resin. It is 
 the juice of a thick-stemmed perennial plant which exude, swhen the 
 plant is ripped open. Formerly it was chiefly obtained from the 
 Euphorbia officinarum growing in the hottest part of Africa, now it 
 is brought to us more frequently from the Canary Isles, being gath- 
 ered from the Euphorbia canariensis. 
 
 When chewed, it first appears to be tasteless, but afterwards 
 causes an .extremely caustic burning, which is long continued, and 
 can only be removed by rinsing the mouth with oil. The many 
 species of Kuphorbium seem to resemble each other closely as to 
 their medicinal virtues. 
 
 Kuphorbium has been much abused by surgeons of old, being 
 sprinkled on in cases of caries of the bones and in other inactive 
 cutaneous ulcers; it is also still misused to torment men as an in- 
 gredient of the continually used vesicatories. It promises, however, 
 to become extremely useful, when internally applied, after having 
 been prepared like other dry drugs in the manner peculiar to Hom- 
 oeopathy. When used in high potencies and in minimal doses, it 
 will accomplish much; as may be seen from the pure symptoms as 
 observed in healthy persons. It seems to deserve additional provings 
 as to its pure symptoms. 
 
 Its action continues for several weeks, and its antidote is camphor. 
 Whether lemon juice may be of use in counteracting some of its 
 troublesome symptoms, is yet uncertain.

 GRAPHITES. PLUMBAGO, 
 
 A grain of the purest plumbago from an English lead pencil of 
 the best qualit}' is pulverized, and according to the direction for pre- 
 paring antipsoric medicines, as given at the end of the first volume, 
 it is first triturated up to the one millionth powder-attenuation. 
 Then, according to the direction there given, the solution of one 
 grain of this preparation in a mixture of fift}^ drops of water and fifty 
 drops of alcohol, after being shaken up ten times, is further diluted 
 in pure alcohol to the billionth (II.), quadrillionth (IV.), sex- 
 tillionth (VI.), octillionth (VIII.), and decilhonth (X.) degree, and 
 every time potentized with ten strokes of the arm. In these forms 
 and degrees of potency, this medicine is then applied to its homoeo- 
 
GRAPHITES. 719 
 
 pathic antipsoric use, taking one or two small pellets moistened with 
 the medicine, for a dose. 
 
 The purest plumbago is a sort of mineral carbon, and the small 
 contents of iron are probably to be viewed merely as an admixture 
 not essential to the nature of plumbago, which is further confirmed by 
 the fact, that Davy has fully proved the actual transition of diamond 
 into plumbago hy treating the same with metallic potassium. 
 
 The first thought of the medicinal use of plumbago was given to 
 Dr. VVeinhold by the fact, that during his journey in Italy he saw 
 workmen in a mirror factory in Venice use it externally for driving 
 away herpes. He imitated them, and described the result in a little 
 work : Der Graphit als Heilmittel gege7i Flechten (Plumbago as a 
 remed}^ for herpes), (2ded., Meissen, 18 12). He prescribed its ex- 
 ternal application either with saliva or with some fat, or he rubbed in 
 the ointment, or applied a plaster of plumbago. He also adminis- 
 tered it in several cases internally, as a confection or in pills, not 
 without success. 
 
 We go somewhat further, and administer graphites as a very 
 serviceable antipsoric remedy, and this, whether herpes be present in 
 the (non- venereal) chronic disease or not, provided that the present 
 (and previous) symptoms of the patient are found to be homoeo- 
 pathically as similar as possible to the pure" symptoms below adduced, 
 which are peculiar to graphites, and caused by it in the healthy 
 body. Graphites has a lengthy period of action. 
 
 Graphites has proved itself especially useful, in chronic diseases 
 where it is otherwise appropriate, in curing the following symptoms:

 anxiousness at night, forcing him to get up; night-sweat. 
 
 Where chronic constipation and menses, delaying several days, 
 cause trouble, graphites is often indispensable. It is not often 
 repeated to advantage, even after intervening remedies. 'Smelling 
 of Arsenicum X° seems to be an antidote, especially to desperate 
 grief caused by graphites. A very small dose of nux vomica anti- 
 dotes several troublesome symptoms from graphites. 
 
 The symptoms marked Htb. were observed by Dr. Hartlaub, 
 those marked Ng. by an anonymous observer in the pure Arzneijnit- 
 tellehre of the Drs. Hartlaub and Tri7iks; Rl., Dr. Rummel; Kr.^

 GUAJACUM. JUIAC. 
 
 The sap which flows from the West Indian tree Giiajaaun 
 officinale, which when inspissated is called Gummi Gicajaci, consists 
 in great part of a peculiar kind of resin. For homoeopathic use this 
 is triturated dry with sugar of milk for three hours to the one mill- 
 ionth attenuation, and then dissolved and raised to the thirtieth 
 potency. The homoeopathic physician will not allow himself to be 
 led astray by the indefinite and delusive recommendation of the old 
 Materia Medica to use Guajacum for gout and rheumatism. He will 
 not look to fictitious names of diseases, but he will look to the 
 similarity of the symptoms existing on the one side in the disease to 
 be healed, and on the other in the symptoms excited by the remedy. 
 
 The whole of this pathogenesis, save for fifteen s^-niptonis of Hahnemann's, appeared 
 in Vol. IV. of the Materia Medica Piua: it belongs accoi'dingly to his earlier manner.—

 HEPAR SULPHURIS CALCAREUM. 
 
 A mixture of equal parts of fineh' powdered, clean 03'ster shells 
 and quite pure flowers of sulphur is kept for ten minutes at a white 
 heat in a hermetically closed crucible and afterwards stored up in a 
 well- corked bottle. To develop its powers, it is treated like other 
 dry drugs in order to potentize it to the higher degrees, according 
 to the directions at the end of the first volume. 
 
 Besides belladonna, chamomilla is an antidote to the colic and 
 diarrhoea. 
 
 Hepar sulphuris has proved itself particularly useful, when 
 having been selected according to the similarity of symptoms, there 
 were besides present one or more of the following symptoms: 
 
 Boring headache in the root of the nose, every morning from 
 seven to twelve o'clock; ulcerative pain just above the eye every 
 evening; shooting pains in the eyes; photophobia; flow of fetid pus 
 from the ear; er\'sipelas in the face with prickling turgidity; dryness 
 of the throat; scrapy sore throat, interfering with speaking, but not 
 w^ith deglutition; a plug in the throat; voracious hunger; eructation; 
 fits of nausea, with coldness and paleness; swelling and pressure in 
 the gastric region; frequent and too eas}^ derangement of the stom- 
 ach; contractive pain in the abdomen; stitches in the left side of the 
 abdomen; incarceration of flatus; difficult discharge of flatus in the 
 morning; nocturnal passage of urine during sleep; flow of mucus 
 from the urethra; lack of sexual desire; lack of erections; weak 
 erections during coitus; emission of prostatic juice after viicturitiony 
 during a hard stool and per se; retarded menses; leucorrhoea, with 
 excoriation on the pudenda; cough; severe cough in the evening, 
 when lying abed; spasmodic contraction of the chest, after speaking; 
 cancerous ulcers on the chest, with shooting, burning pain on its 
 edges and fetor as of old cheese; tearing in the arm toward the ulcer 
 in the chest; drawing in the back between the scapulae; fetid sweat 
 of the axillae; encj^sted tumor on the point of the elbow; dying-off 
 of the fingers; drawing pain in the limbs, chiefly in the morning on 
 awaking; trembling weariness after smoking tobacco; yawning; 
 tendency to perspire b}- day; flying heat, with perspiration. 
 
 The symptoms marked Fr. H. are from Dr. Friedrich Hahne- 
 man7i; those marked Stf. , from Medical Counselor Dr. Stapf. 
 
 A pathogenesis of Hepar sulphuris appeared in Vol. IV. of the Mat. Med. Pura, con- 
 taining 282 sj-mptoms from Hahneman. and i6 from the two fellow-observe'rs mentioned 
 above. The additional ones in the present work are all from himself and belong to his later 
 manner. — Hughes.

 lODIUM. IODINE. 
 
 Iodine is obtained from various kinds of sea-wrack (fucus, sea- 
 weed), by leaching the ashes, and then cr3^stallizing the salts con- 
 tained in it that can be crystallized; the residual uncrystallizable lye, 
 consisting of iodide of sodium, is then evaporated and allowed to 
 stand in a warm place mixed with strong sulphuric acid, in order to 
 remove from it all muriatic acid; then manganese is added and the 
 mass is strongly heated in a retort, whereby the iodine is sepa- 
 rated, rising as a violet-colored vapor, which is condensed on the 
 upper part of the retort in bluish-brown scales or leaflets. One grain 
 of this is prepared for the homoeopathic dynamization and brought 
 up to the thirtieth potency in the manner prescribed for dry drugs at 
 the conclusion of the first part of this work. 
 
 Even in the higher and the highest degrees of dynamization 
 iodine is a very heroic medicine, which calls for every precaution of 
 the good homoeopathic physician; when misapplied in allopathic 
 hands, iodine is frequently seen to cause the most fearful destruction 
 of the body and life of patients. 
 
 Iodine has been of service especially when the following states 
 were at the same time present: 
 
 Dizziness in the morning; throbbing in the head; excoriation of 
 the eyes; humming before the ears; hardness of hearing; a coated 
 tongue; mercurial salivation; bad, soapy taste; sourish eructation, 
 with burning; heartbur?i after heavy viands; voracious hunger ; 
 nausea; incarceration of flatus ; inflation of the abdomen; constipa- 
 tion; micturition at night; delay in the menses; cough; inveterate 
 morning cough; difficulty in breathing; external swelling of the 
 neck; weariness of the arms in the morning, in bed; the fingers go 
 to sleep; curvature of the bones; dryness of the skin; night-sweats.

 KALI CARBONICUM, SALT OF TARTAR. 
 
 [Half an ounce of purified tartar, moistened with a few drops of water, is pressed 
 together into a ball, which is rolled up into a piece of paper and allowed to dry; then it is 
 brought to a red heat between the glowing charcoal of a grate (or of a draught furnace). 
 It is then taken out, laid in a porcelain saucer and covered with a linen cloth; it is allowed to 
 attract moisture from the air in a cellar, which causes the alkaline salt partially to deliquesce, 
 and, if it is allowed to stay there a few weeks, it will deposit even the last trace of lime. A 
 clear drop* of this preparation is then triturated three times with loo grains of sugar of milk 
 each time, within three hours, to the one millionth powder attenuation 'Kali I); one grain of 
 this third trituration is then raised by twenty-seven dilution vials to the decillionth djmami- 
 zation (Kali X). 
 
 The carbonate of potash secured in this manner has proved itself 
 most useful where the following morbid symptoms predominated, or 
 at least were also present: 
 
 * This will be a salt of tartar sufficiently pure for our purposes. I would again repeat, 
 that I have endeavored to secure the medicinal material for homoeopathic use, wherever 
 practicable, in the most simple and natural manner, and to give directions of this kind; so

 A pathogenesis of Kali carbonicuni appeared in Vol. IV. of the first edition of this work 
 (1830), and already contained— besides Hahnemann's own— the S3nnptonis referred to Rutn- 
 mel and v. Gersdorff, doubtless obtained from the 30th dil. Those of Goullon added here, 
 presumably come from a similar source; but the main addition in the present pathogenesis 
 is from the symptom list of Hartlaub and Nenning (chiefly the latter) in Hartlaub and

 LYCOPODII POLLEN. SPORULES OF CLUB- 
 MOSS. 
 
 [This yellowish powder, smooth to the touch and resembling dust, is obtained toward 
 the end of summer in the forests of Russia and Finland from the spikes of the club-moss 
 {Lycopodiium clavatum), which are dried and then beaten. 
 
 It has been used hitherto to make artificial lightning, by blowing it through the flame 
 of a candle, also to sprinkle over pellets which else easily stick together, and also to sprinkle 
 it on excoriated folds in the human body to protect them against painful friction. It floats 
 on liquids without being dissolved, is without taste and smell, and in its ordinaiy ci-ude .state 
 almost without any medicinal effect on the human body. The accounts given by the ancients 
 as to its effects, have at least not been confirmed by modern investigators, but rather drawn 
 into doubt. 
 
 But when the pollen of the club-moss is treated in the mode by which the homoeopathic 
 art unveils the crude substances of nature, according to* i"/;^ dit'ectwn given above /or the prepa- 
 ration of antipsoric medicines^ there arises a wonderfully effective medicine in its thirty dif- 
 ferent degrees of dynamization.]

 the following symptoms also are a cause of trouble:

 [As much of pure Carbonate of Magnesia as will dissolve in pure Muriatic acid at 800 
 Reaumur is dissolved in the acid. The Muriatic acid is prepared by distillation from com- 
 mon salt and Phosphoric acid of equal weight, which has first been melted and then allowed 
 to acquire again from exposure to the air an oily consistency. The solution of muriate of 
 magnesia is then filtered and dried at the same temperature, so that this salt, which readily 
 deliquesces, may be preserved in a well-stoppered vial.] 
 
 I cannot at present offer much information concerning this medi- 
 cine, but chronic patients may expect from it much benefit, when we 
 consider the great use which has been afforded in chronic (psoric) 
 ailments by sea-baths, merely by the action of this salt on the nerves 
 of the skin; for in the North Sea, at least, one pound of sea- water 
 contains almost an ounce of this salt. Some part of the use of sea- 
 baths may, however, we grant, be ascribed to the journej^ to these 
 places, the effects of removal from business, which is often burden- 
 some, and the effect of the dashing of the waves against the bathers. 
 
 But since we can seldom expect the full cure of developed psora 
 from any one antipsoric remedy, so these baths, even if used in a 
 proper way, could only diminish so much of this multiform maladv 
 
944 hahnkmann's chronic diseases. 
 
 as could be expected from this salt in such disease, and whatever is 
 not thus exterminated has to await the help of other antipsoric 
 remedies. 
 
 From my experience I cannot do otherwise than value this medi- 
 cine highly as an antipsoric remedy and to exhort to further prov- 
 ings of its peculiar symptoms. 
 
 It has done good service, especially in the following ailments: 
 
 Daily headache,; throbbing in the ear; tensive pressure in the 
 head; eruption in the face; pressive pain in the liver, even when 
 walking and when it is touched, worst when lying on the right side; 
 constant severe inflation of the abdomen, with constipation; crawl- 
 ing shooting in the abdominal muscles; inveterate, painful hardness 
 of the right side of the abdomen; tape- worm troubles; lump3^, hardy 
 difficult, insufficient, retarded stool; chronic disposition to diarrhoea; 
 hysteria, 2iterine and abdofniJial cramps, which even extend to the 
 thighs, and cause discharges of leucorrhoea; troublesome dryness of 
 the nose; the arms go to sleep in the morning on awaking; paralytic 
 drawing in the arms and knees; pressive pain in the knees; foot- 
 sweat; readiness to take cold; weakness of the body, seeming to 
 proceed from the stomach.

 MANGANUM. MANGANESIUM. MAN- 
 GANESE/ 
 
 Manganese as it is mined; /. e., the black oxide of Maganese, is 
 triturated in a porcelain mortar with an equal quantity in weight of 
 crystallized pure copperas (sulphate of iron), and then mixed with 
 some syrup of sugar, and the mixture is formed into balls the size of 
 a hen's egg. These are heated between charcoal, and are kept for 
 ten minutes at a white heat. A subsequent solution in pure (dis- 
 tilled or rain) water contains pure sulphate of manganese, while the 
 sediment contains the excess of oxide of manganese, mixed with 
 oxide of iron. 
 
 From this solution we precipitate carbonate of vtayiganese, by ad- 
 ding carbonate of soda. This precipitate, when sufficiently washed 
 out with water, is a white powder. When this has been dried, 
 powdered, and for some time exposed to the air, by being spread out 
 on paper, it is apt to take a yellowish color, if sufficient care has not 
 been used in its preparation; this is owing to some oxide of iron still 
 present in it. To remove this the powder is dissolved in diluted

 nitric acid, filtered through paper, precipitated by carbonate of soda, 
 and then properh- washed in distilled water and dried. 
 
 From this white carbonate of maganese one grain is dymanized for 
 homoeopathic use, as is done wdth other dry medicinal substances; or 
 it is dissolved, by boiling it in distilled vinegar, until a saturated solu- 
 tion is obtained, which is then boiled down to the consistence of 
 syrup (yManganum aceticum). Of the latter substance one drop, 
 being taken as a unit, is homoeopathically dynamized like other fluid 
 medicinal substances, by means of one hundred drops of alcohol suc- 
 cessively in each of thirty attenuating vials. 
 
 Both of these preparations have been used in the following prov- 
 ings of the pure effects of Manganese. 
 
 This metal has proved especially helpful where the following 
 symptoms were present among others, or predominated: 
 
 Diminution of the senses; burning of the eyes and dimness of 
 vision by day; eyes closed by suppuration in the morning; too fre- 
 quent discharge of flatus; clotted and difficult stool; repeated, pappj^ 
 stool during the day; diseases of the larynx and of the windpipe; 
 chronic hoarseness; phthisis laryngea; intolerable pains of the peri- 
 osteum and the joints; long-continued inflammatory swelling and

 heartburn.

 In early spring, when the shrub is about to bloom, its bark is 
 gathered. Originally the juice of the fresh green bark was pressed 
 out and preserved, mixed with equal parts of alcohol, and raised 
 to the homoeopathic dynamization b}- shaking. This juice, when 
 it touches the skin, causes a long continued, very painful burning. 
 But since the medicinal virtue of this bark does not consist in its 
 volatile parts, it will be better to dry it and powder it, and then to 
 triturate it with 100 parts of sugar of milk, and then to potentize it

 This medicine has so far proved itself useful in diseases which 
 were accompanied by the following symptoms: 
 
 Humid itching eruption on the head and behind the ears; in- 
 flammation of the eyes; chronic leucorrhoea; shortening of a lower 
 limb; nightly itching of the body.

IOI2 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 MURIATICUM ACIDUM, ACIDUM HYDRO- 
 CHLORICUM, MURIATIC ACID.^ 
 
 The colorless muriatic acid of the shops, obtained from salt by 
 means of sulphuric acid, contains a considerable quantitj" of this 
 latter acid. To free it from this admixture, and to produce it quite 
 pure for the use of the homoeopathic ph^^sician, the sulphuric acid 
 must be precipitated by adding a sufficiency of muriate of bar3^ta. 
 The muriatic acid is then decanted from the sediment (sulphate of 
 baryta) and re-distilled. 
 
 The yellow muriatic acid, distilled over by means of the sulphate 
 of iron, contains no sulphuric acid, but it contains iron and cannot, 
 therefore, be used for our cures, which demand pure medicinal 
 substances. 
 
 This acid has so far proved useful in the diseases where the 
 S3^mptoms were appropriate and the following ailments were also 
 present: Half-sightedness from above downward; insensibility in the 
 meatus auditorius intern us; throbbing in the ear; deafness; eruption 
 of pimpJes in the face; freckles; sore throat; eructation; dislike to 
 meat ; inflation and fullness of the abdomen ; cramps in the abdomen; 
 stool of too thin formation; stoppage of the nose; pressive drawing 
 in the upper arms and knees; coldness of the feet; sensitiveness to 
 damp weather.

 boiling-hot, filter the solution through blotting-paper, and cause it to 
 crystallize in a cellar. These crystals consist of rhombic- octaedra 
 and rhomboidal prisms. One grain of these crystals, dried on blot- 
 ting-paper (before they fall into powder), is taken for the prepara- 
 tion of the various homoeopathic potencies, being treated in the 
 manner of the other dry medicinal substances.

 Uu the first edition Hahnemann published a pathogenesis of Natrum carhonicum, con- 
 taining 308 symptoms. The salt was then proved by Nenning and Schreter, and their results 
 —making 625 symptoms in all— appeared in the thii'd volume of the AizucimittcUchre of 
 Hartlaub and Trinks. These two symptom-lists, with (presumably) provings of the 30th by 
 I^anghammer, Hering and Gross, and some fresh observations on patients by Hahnemann 
 himself, form the present pathogenesis. — Huglics.

 SODIUM, COMMON SALT. 
 
 [Half an ounce of ordinary kitchen salt is dissolved in an ounce and a half of boiling, 
 -distilled water, in order to free it from its associated salts, it is filtered through printing 
 paper, and left to crystallize by evaporation at a temperature of 122° Fahrenheit. The crys- 
 tals, which are allowed to dry off on blotting paper, are of cubical shape with pyramidal 
 indentation on evei-y side. One grain of these crystals is triturated to the one millionth 
 attenuation, and then brought to the decillionth attenuation, as indicated in the first part of 
 this work.] 
 
 There is hardly any pure experience of the real medicinal effects 
 of common salt in diseases. Where it has been given, indeed, with 
 quick effects, e. g., in spitting of blood and in other haemorrhages, 
 the enormous quantity given (a tablespoonful swallowed at once) 
 manifestly only acted as a violent, diverting counter-irritant upon the 
 stomach and the intestines, in the same way as a mustard plaster, 
 applied on the calves or the arms, by the stronger pain it causes, 
 serves at times to produce a sudden temporary cessation of toothache. 
 
 If, furthermore, as experience teaches, all substances that should 
 have the power of healing diseases, must, on the other hand, be able 
 to affect injuriously the state of healthy men, it would be hard to see 
 how all nations on earth, even those only half-civilized, should have 
 daily used salt in not inconsiderable quantities, for so many thous- 
 ands of years, without experiencing any deleterious effects on the 
 human health (as indications of its healing powers), if it is really 
 able to ultimate such effects openly and plainly. Lind, indeed, de- 
 rives scurvy in long sea-voyages from the use of salt meats on board 
 of ships; but this is improbable, as many other morbific causes co- 
 operate to develop this cachexy. 
 
 If we then assume, that common salt in its natural condition, 
 shows no injurious effects on the human health, when used dail>- in 
 moderate* quantity, we ought not to expect from it any curative

 hidden within it. 
 
 If there is then any proof convincing even the most dim-sighted,. 
 that the preparation of drugs, pecuhar to Homoeopath}', opens, as it 
 were, a new world of forces, T^hich hitherto have lain hidden by na^ 
 ture, this proof is surely afforded by the transformation of common salt,, 
 so indifferent in its crude state, into a heroic and mighty medicine,, 
 which, after such preparation, can only be given to patients with the 
 greatest care. What an incredible and yet actual transformation L

iii6 hahnkmann's chronic diskases. 
 
 NITRI ACIDUM, NITRIC ACID/ 
 
 Half an ounce of perfectly pure nitre (dry nitre in large crystals 
 is dissolved in 6 parts of hot water, and crystallized again from the 
 solution during the application of intense cold) is pulverized and 
 put into a retort lined with clay, by means of a crooked beaked glass 
 funnel, then through the same funnel a half an ounce of phosphoric 
 acid of an oily consistence is added (prepared according to the di- 
 rection in the fifth part of Materia Medica Pura, melted and allowed 
 to deliquesce in the open air); after these have been shaken up a 
 little, the pure nitric acid is distilled over a lamp into a receiver 
 loosely attached to it; this acid will not smoke and has a specific 
 weight of about 1,200. 
 
 One drop of this acid is shaken up five times with 100 drops of 
 distilled water, and one drop of this is shaken up by five succussions, 
 with 100 drops of diluted alcohol whereby the nitric acid is potentized 
 to the ten thousandth dilution (to"o""oo")' One drop of this attenua- 
 tion is then attenuated with 100 drops of good alcohol and then po- 
 tentized by five succussions successively to the VI, VIII and X 
 potencies, for there is no danger of any intimate combination (as in 
 sweet spirits of nitre) of the alcohol with an acid so much diluted. 
 
 The homoeopathic physician will only use the potencies VI, 
 VIII and X for antipsoric purposes, giving two or three of the small- 
 est pellets, moistened with these potencies, for a dose — for the more 
 debilitated patients we only use the decillionth attenuation. 
 
 It will be found that this medicine acts more beneficially with 
 patients of a tense fibre (brunettes) than with those of a lax fibre 
 (blondes). It is also more appropriate to chronic patients who are 
 inclined to soft stools, while it is seldom applicable to patients in- 
 clined to constipation. 
 
 Nitric acid is most beneficial where the following symptoms pre- 
 dominate or are present among others: 
 
 Sadness; lack of cheerfuhiess; anxiety about his disease, with fear 
 of death, excessive irritability; peevishness and obstinacy; aversion 
 to work; vertigo, when walking and sitting; vertigo, compelling the 
 person to lie down; headache from nausea; tearing in the forehead, 
 
 lAbout 130 of the following symptoms belong to the two fellow-observers mentioned. 
 The remainder, save thirty from authors, are Hahnemann's own, obtained as we have 
 already seen. Besides these there are a few from Hartmann, Foissac, Hering, Stapf and 
 "Th. Mo.," etc., probably observed on ^■aXx^nts.— Hughes.

 NITRUM, NITRATE OF POTASH, SALT- 
 PETRE. 
 
 [The dry, so-called purified nitre of commerce is dissolved in six parts of hot water 
 and is then allowed to crystallize at a low degree of temperature. These crystals are best 
 for homoeopathic use, as they are almost absolutely free from the common cooking salt. 
 They are dynamized like other drj^ medicinal substances.] 
 
 With physicians of the old school next to the (still raging) with- 
 drawal of blood, Nitre has been the chief remedy by which an in- 
 creased circulation and inflammatory fevers might be diminished. 
 They relied on this, their chief anti-phlogistic remedy, to allay the 
 fevers. They knew of hardly any other use for nitre in diseases. 
 Nitre, however, when used internally, shows its great power . of 
 causing chilliness and cold, only in its primary effects, and as they 
 did not think of applying the morbid symptoms, which are produced 
 by medicines on healthy men, to the similar symptoms in natural 
 diseases (in a homoeopathic manner), and to heal them according to 
 the only true natural law of cure, they could only do harm with 
 their palliative use of nitre. Since it is their practice to give their 
 medicines (and so also nitre) in large doses, they could, by the use 
 of this salt in inflammatory fevers, only cause a sinking of strength 
 and lono;--continued fevers from debilitation, also called nervous 
 
Il6o HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 fevers. These fevers, as the experience of many centuries teaches, 
 have frequently caused death. 
 
 Homoeopathy teaches us quite a different and opposite appHca- 
 tion, flowing from the peculiar and pure effects of medicines and so 
 also of nitre on healthy man; the subjoined symptoms are only a 
 beginning in this direction, and they are in a high degree worthy of a 
 further elaboration. 
 
 Nitre has proved itself useful hitherto, where among others, the 
 following symptoms were present: 
 
 Lack of appetite with thirst; most violent cramp in the stomach; 
 obstruction of flatus in the afternoon; diarrhoea without pains in the 
 abdomen; cough in the open air, and on going up-stairs; cough, 
 whenever the breath is held; coughing up of blood; asthma, he can- 
 not lie with his head in a low position; stitches in the chest, when 
 taking a deep breath; stitches in the scapula; exhausting sweats; 
 quotidian fevers, with drawing pain in the lower limbs. 
 
 Dr. Schreter found the ethereal sweet spirits of nitre a means for 
 alleviating the excessive effects of nitre, especially the headache 
 caused by it; camphor only aggravated the symptoms.

PBTROIvEUM. 1 187 
 
 PETROLEUM, OLEUM PETR^E, COAL OIL, 
 
 ROCK OIL. 
 
 This product of the interior of the earth is extremel}^ strong in 
 smell, taste and medicinal effect. For medicinal use it ought to be 
 very fluid and of light -yellow color. If it is very fluid it is not very 
 likely that it has been adulterated with fat vegetable oils. But in 
 order to be quite sure of this point, in the work: Kenjizeiche^i der 
 Gi'ite luid VerfcBlschung der Arzeneieii (Signs of the genuineness and 
 adulteration of Drugs) (published in Dresden, 1787, p. 221), I 
 have advised testing it b3^ the admixture of strong sulphuric acid, 
 which leaves the petroleum untouched and only changes any foreign 
 oils that may be admixed into a sort of sulphurous substance. Or 
 we may, more simpl}^, merely drop a little of the petroleum on a 
 piece of white writing paper; when this is laid in the open air or in 
 a very warm place, it soon evaporates and leaves the paper without 
 a transparent or translucid spot, if no fat oil is admixed. In many 
 cases the petroleum may be found adulterated by the admixture of a 
 volatile vegetable oil, e. g. , oil of turpentine. To guard against 
 this, it is well to mix petroleum, before it is used medicinally, with 
 double the quantity of alcohol, to shake it a few times and then to 
 separate it again by filtering it through blotting paper which has 
 been moistened with alcohol. Thereby the pure petroleum re- 
 mains behind in the filter, and is then kept in little vials, the stop- 
 per and mouth of which have been covered with melted sealing-wax. 
 The alcohol, which has passed through the filter, will contain the 
 volatile vegetable oil. if the like was present in the petroleum. 
 
 For the first trituration with one hundred grains of sugar of milk 
 ^\'e take one drop instead one grain of petroleum. 
 
 Petroleum has done excellent service, where the following morbid 
 symptoms were prominent: 
 
 Anxiety; timidity; excitement; abuse; lack of memory; weak- 
 ness of memory and of the thinking faculty; obtuseness of the head; 
 vertigo, like violent tottering to and fro; headache from vexation; 
 pressive shooting headache; beating in the occiput; eruption on the

 PHOSPHORUS. 
 
 Phosphorus is chemically prepared from bone-acid (phosphoric 
 acid) by distillation with charcoal; it is remarkable for its easy 
 spontaneous combustion. It is dynamized for homoeopathic use in 
 the manner described at the end of the first part of this work, p. 
 
 147- 
 
 Phosphorus properl}^ potentized in this manner is one of the mos^ 
 indispensable and chiefly antipsoric remedies.^ 
 
 Nevertheless this medicine will rarely be found appropriate in 
 cases of chronic (un venereal) diseases, where lack of sexual impulse 
 and weakness in the genital parts is manifest, or the female period is 
 
 ^How entirely medicinal substances, by potentizing through trituration 
 and succussion (which were first used by Homoeopathy), are removed out of 
 their chemical sphere, may be seen, among other things, by the remarkable fact, 
 that a powder of sugar of milk containing one or two pellets moistened with 
 this medicine, potentized to, say, the decillionth attenuation, though it may 
 have been kept a year and a day, will yet retain its medicinal virtue undimin- 
 ished, and shows the dynamic effect of phosphorus, and has not, therefore, 
 been turned into phosphoric acid, which has quite a different effect on the 
 human health.

 retarded, or generally, where there is too great weakness and lack of 
 vital strength. If it should, nevertheless, be homoeopathically indi- 
 cated, in order to keep up the strength as far as possible, the transfer 
 of vital power from a healthy person (mesmerism*) should be made 
 use of; i. <?., from time to time a kindly, strong, healthy person 
 should hold for a few minutes the hands of the feeble patient in his 
 hands, directing his mind upon him with compassionate heart and 
 with an earnest desire of benefiting him; or he may lay his hands 
 on the most enfeebled, suffering part of his body, keeping away all 
 noise which might distract the attention of the one who communi- 
 cates the force and also of the patient; no persons must be allowed 
 to crowd up while this treatment is going on. 
 
 This medicine is best adapted to cases where there are long con- 
 tinued soft or thin stools. 
 
 In cases where the potentized phosphorus was homoeopathically 
 indicated, it also removed the following ailments if they happened 
 to be present at the same time. 
 
 Lack of cheerfulness, apprehensiveness when alone; anxiety about 
 the future; irritability and anxiety; timidity; liability to be startled;

 PHOSPHORICUM ACIDUM. PHOSPHORIC 
 
 ACID. 
 
 It is best to take for the preparation of this medicine for homoe- 
 opathic use, one grain of Phosphoric acid melted and preserved dry 
 in a well stoppered vessel. This acid may be gained directly from 
 the phosphorus b}^ applying nitric acid, or, it may be gained from 
 bones in the following manner, first practiced by myself: Take a 
 pound of calcined white bone, broken in pieces; pour over this in a 
 porcelain bowl one pound of the strongest Sulphuric acid and stir the 
 mixture around several times in 24 hours with a glass rod. The 
 mash thus gained is then well-mixed and thinned with two pounds 
 of strong whiskey or rum, the whole is then tied up in a linen bag 
 and pressed out between two smooth boards weighed down with 
 hea\^^ weights. What remains in the bag may be again thinned 
 with two pounds of strong whiskey, and what is pressed out may be 
 mixed with the quantity first obtained; it may then remain covered 
 for a few days so that the turbid matter may settle down. The clear 
 liquid is decanted and boiled down in a heated porcelain bo\^'l and 
 then melted at a red heat. The melted Phosphoric acid must be of 
 crystalline clearness. While still warm, it is broken in pieces and 
 preserved in a well-stoppered bottle, as it quickly and totally 
 deliquesces in the open air into a thickish fluid of water^^ clearness. 
 The dry acid may be used like other dry substances, being triturated 
 with sugar of milk, in the manner described in the first part of this 
 book up to the millionth powdered attenuation. One grain of this 
 may then be dissolved and further potentized by succussion. 
 
 A too violent action of Phosphoric acid is modified by Camphor. 
 
 In cases where the properly potentized Phosphoric acid was indi- 
 cated, it also cured at the same time the following ailments: 
 
 Morning-headache: intolerance of noise and talking; scabs on 
 the dorsum of the nose; fetid odor from the nose; burning in the 
 cheeks; pimples on the chin; pimples about the forehead and chin; 
 burning in the hypogastrium; nocturnal micturition; pain in the 
 liver, during the menses; roughness of the throat: scraping on the 
 larynx inciting to cough; shortness of breath and inability to talk 
 long at a time; weakness of the chest from speaking: eruption of 
 pimples on the arms; sweating of the feet; herpes: corns: night- 
 sweat. 
 
1274 hahnkmann's chronic diskasks. 
 
 Dr. Hering cured with it: Incapacity for mental work with great 
 discouragement, and indolence of mind and bod}^; heaviness of the 
 head, as if it were full of water; inflammation of the eyes with burn- 
 ing; lachrymation ; aversion to sunlight; the teeth become yellow; 
 constant nausea in the throat; after meals the stomach seems to rock 
 up and down; hawking up of viscid mucus; gnawing pain in the 
 testes; hacking cough with expectoration of mucus, in the morning; 
 repeated stools; furuncle on the nates and in the axillae; swelling on 
 the natis; swelling of the feet; the testes are sore to the touch; itch- 
 ing of an ulcer; fiat, painless ulcers on the leg without redness, with 
 jagged, uneven fundus and dirty looking pus; great weariness after 
 waking; milky urine.

PLATINA. 1301 
 
 PLATINA. 
 
 Chemically pure platina which is soft and can be cut with a knife, 
 is dissolved in heated aqua-regia (nitric acid and hydrochloric acid), 
 the golden yellow solution obtained, is properly diluted with distilled 
 water, a smoothly-polished steel rod is suspended in it, on which 
 the platina deposits as a crystalline crust. This is readily friable, is 
 sweetened by repeated washing in distilled water and well-dried be- 
 tween blotting paper. One grain of this is used for the preparation 
 of the homoeopathic dynamizations as shown in the concluding part 
 of the first volume of the Chronic Diseases. 
 
 When Platina is properly homoeopathically indicated in a case of 
 disease, it relieves simultaneously the following ailments, if present: 
 
 Lack of appetite; eructation after eating; constipation while 
 traveling; emission of prostatic juice; induration of the uterus; 
 weariness of the lower limbs; cold feet; stuffed coryza. 
 
 Too violent effects of Platina are relieved by Pulsatilla and by 
 smelling of sweet spirits of nitre. 
 
 The symptoms marked Gr. are by Dr. Gross, of Jueterbock.^

 tense palpitation. \Gr.'\

 1 To the above-named fellow-observer most of the symptoms of Platina are credited. 
 They are taken from a proving instituted hy him, chiefly on "a damsel both bodily and

 this proving were originally published in Vol. I of the Archiv. — Hui^hiS.

 SARSAPARILLA. SASSAPARILLA. 
 
 When Syphilis was being cured by immoderate doses of Mercury 
 (even 300 years ago), the long, thin root of Smilax Sarsaparilla was 
 casually discovered by the common people in South America to be of 
 great use in the great derangement of health resulting thence. This 
 has since been imitated in Europe in similar cases, but it is always 
 ordered by the physicians in a boiled form It was, therefore, nec- 
 essary, in order to get an effective medicine, frequently to use an 
 ounce and more of this expensive root every day, an expense which 
 only rich patients could afford; especially, w^hen the treatment had to 
 be continued for years, as was sometimes the case. It was, as may 
 be seen, not perceived, even in the course of several centuries, that 
 the root, which in itself is very strong, loses almost all its effective 
 parts by boiling. It was therefore no great loss for the patient, 
 when the apothecary mixed in or substituted for the very expensive 
 sarsaparilla root, the similar long and thin roots of the sea-zeed-grass 
 (carex arenaria) which had no medicinal virtures at all, drawing an 
 immense profit from the transaction. For a long time even the phy- 
 sicians supposed that the root of the carex arenaria might with pro- 
 
SARSAPARII^LA. 1 323 
 
 priet}" be substituted for the sarsaparilla, because it also was a long, 
 thin root, and probably of similar virtues. This was an arbitrary 
 action of the fabricators of the common Materia Medica, having no 
 foundation in fact, as they also decreed, that the bark of Salix and 
 of JSsculus hippocastanum was of like medicinal virtue as the cin- 
 chona bark. 
 
 The truth is, that the genuine sarsaparilla, especially the brown 
 kind which grows on Hayti (San Domingo), is a drug which is very 
 powerful even in a small dose; but it must be given to the patient in 
 some other form, and not as a decoction, as it thereby, as before 
 mentioned, loses nearly all its virtue. 
 
 Homoeopathy only uses the most genuine medicines (it needs but 
 a small quantit}^ of each), and it uses them in their most effective 
 form. 
 
 The tinctures drawn out with alcohol from all the dry drugs, do 
 not contain all of their medicinal virtues. I have become convinced 
 of this by experience now for several years. 
 
 We therefore scrape off one grain of the bark from a small piece 
 of good sarsaparilla root which has not been kept on hand too long; 
 the same is triturated for homoeopathic use with ninety-nine grains 
 of sugar of milk to the hundred fold powder-attenuation, and so 
 on to the millionth powder-attenuation; one grain of this in solution 
 is then potentized further, as taught at the end of the first part of 
 this work. 
 
 In cases where Sarsaparilla was homoeopathically indicated, it 
 also removed the following ailments, if they happened to be present: 
 
 Nauseas, blood with the stool; cold feet before going to sleep; 
 perspiration on the forehead, in the evening in bed; stuffed coryza of 
 many years standing; bruised weariness of the hands and the feet. 
 
 Smelling of Camphor is an antidote; Vinegar seems to aggravate 
 the ailments in the beginning.

1342 HAHNEMANN'S CHRONIC DISEASES. 
 
 SEPIA, SEPIA SUCCUS. 
 
 This brownish black juice (before me used only for drawing) is 
 found in a sac in the abdomen of the large sea animal, called cuttle- 
 fish. This the animal occasionally squirts out, to darken the water 
 around it, probably in order to secure its prey, or to conceal itself 
 from its enemies. 
 
 The juice- bladder of this animal, which is most frequently found 
 in the Mediterranean Sea, is dried, and then exposed for sale in 
 Rome to draughtsmen, and is to be gotten thence. 
 
 This dry sepia juice (sepia) is easily dissolved in water in all pro- 
 portions, but in this, its raw state, it is insoluble in alcohol. 
 
 This sepia is prepared for homoeopathic use like other dry and 
 crude medicinal substances (see conclusion of Part I., Chron. Dis.). 
 
 Sepia has proved especially useful, when after a choice otherwise 
 agreeing with the symptoms of the disease, one or another of the 
 following ailments were also present:

 discouragement; anxiety in the evening in bed; anxiet}^ and appre-

 of vertigo with unconsciousness, while walking in the open air and 
 while writing; vertigo; weak memory; muddled feeling in the head

 SILICEA TERRA, SILICEOUS EARTH. 
 
 Take half an ounce of rock-crystal which has been comminuted 
 by repeated heating and immersing in cold water, or clean, white 
 sand, washed with distilled vinegar; this is mixed with two ounces 
 of powdered natrum, melted in an iron crucible, till all effervescence is 
 over and the liquefied mass is clear, w^hen it is poured out on a marble- 
 slab. The glass thus obtained, which is transparent like water, 
 is reduced to powder while still warm and is put into a bottle, adding 
 at least four times its weight of distilled water. If the bottle is thus 
 filled to the top and corked immediately there is formed a solution 
 which remains clear and transparent; but if it is poured into an open 
 tumbler, only loosely covered with paper, it is at once decomposed, 
 and allows all the snow-white silica to be deposited as a sediment. 
 The causticum of the natrum (which is not yet recognized by the 
 anti-phlogistic chemistry), during melting, combined with the atmos- 
 pheric air, forming almost instantaneously the (so-called) carbonic 
 acid"^ which was necessary to neutralize and moderate it, so as to 
 allow the silica to be precipitated. The transparent liquid decanted 
 is pure, mild natron, which effervesces with all the other acids. 
 
 To lixiviate the silica, the water must be mixed with some alco- 
 hol, so that the liberated silica may the more easily settle down. 
 Then it is freed from water on a filter of blotting-paper; this is 
 finally laid between several sheets of dry blotting-paper, and weights 
 are laid upon it, so as to withdraw the moisture as far as possible 
 from the silica, after which it is entirely dried in the air, or in a warm 
 place. 
 
 Silica is dynamized like the other dry medicines. It shows itself 
 especiall}^ beneficial, when after having been properly selected, some 
 of the following symptoms were present: 
 
 Disposed to get vexed; lack of cheerfiihiess; indisposition to work; 
 intense irritability; vexation and anxiety about every trifle, owing 
 
 * This acid also is not originally present in coal, but is only formed from 
 the caustic substance set free by the ignition of the coal, when this (during the 
 exposure of the coal to the cold air) combines with the atmospheric air; this 
 takes place even in air which has been before deprived of any carbonic acid 
 which it may contain, through shaking it up with cold, freshly distilled water. 
 This carbonic acid does, therefore, not belong to coal as such; the acid is, there- 
 fore, denominated "carbonic acid" only arbitrarily and improperly. See the 
 article on Causticum in the previous part of this work.

STANNUM. 1437 
 
 STANNUM, TIN. 
 
 Tin beaten out into extremely thin lamina by the gold-beaters, as 
 tin-foil, is the purest tin, which may be dynamized for homoeopathic 
 use, like other dr}' drugs, according to the medicinal methods pecu- 
 liar to Homoeopathy. 
 
 No ph3^sicians made any use of tin before this, as they did not 
 suppose it to contain any medicinal virtues. Alston alone (in Mater. 
 Med. I, p. 150.) first made known a Scotch domestic remedy against 
 the tape-worm (iiuxeworm), containing in syrup a powder of Eng- 
 lish tin, not in its pure state, however, but alloyed with 1-20 part of 
 other metals; it had to be taken in large quantities, and followed by 
 :a purgative. I^ater physicians took tin filings instead. The tape- 
 worm, however, was never killed by the remedy, but perhaps stupe- 
 fied for a time, so that the purgative could then carry it off. But 
 •even this seldom took place. After frequently repeating these doses 
 ■of tin, the tape- worms seems only to extend further in the bowels, 
 and to increase the trouble; workmen in tin also not seldom suffer to 
 a high degree from tape-worm (taenia Solium). Tin, therefore, 
 seems rather to be a palliative to its unpleasant movem_ents in the 
 sensitive bowels; seeming in its after-effects to work more to the 
 detriment than the advantage of the patients. 
 
 What manifold, far more useful employment there may be made 
 of the great medicinal virtues of tin in Homoeopathy, may appear 
 from the following artificial symptoms of disease, observed through 
 its effects on healthy persons: 
 
 Pressive heaviness in the forehead; pains in the abdomen during 
 the menses; pressure and shooting in the left hypochondrium; burn- 
 ing pain in the hepatic region; too great excitability of the nerves; 
 unbearable restlessness, so that persons know not how to contain 
 themselves.

 SULPHUR. 
 
 For homoeopathic use the roll sulphur of commerce is redis- 
 tilled at a gentle heat, forming flowers of sulphur (flores sulphuris) 
 and then washed hy shaking with alcohol to remove anj^ acid that 
 may adhere to it. 
 
 For more than 2,000 years sulphur has been found a most effica- 
 cious remedy against the itch, while not a single physician noticed, 
 or had even the faintest idea, that this was effected by the law of 
 similars (Homoeopath}^). The itch, which is so common among 
 workers in wool, causes a sort of unbearably agreeable, tingling^ 
 itching gnawing, as from lice; this is also described by some as an 
 intolerably voluptuous tickling itching, which ceases as soon as 
 the finger is applied to it, to scratch it, and then begins to burn, 
 and after scratching it continues to burn on that spot. So also the 
 sulphur taken by healthy persons frequently causes similar pimples 
 and vesicles with a burjiins: itching, also chiefly on the joints and 
 b}" night. This great specific virtue of sulphur against itch was 
 during all these centuries merely abused to drive away the itch 
 from the skin by external applications, while the internal itch- 
 malad}" remained uncured. This eventually manifests itself in 
 another form through the breaking out of a great number of tedious 
 diseases of the most varied kind, after the cutaneous eruptions 
 [which had acted vicariously for the internal itch-malady (psora)] 
 had been driven out through exsiccatory remedies, especially sulphur- 
 ointments, rubbed into the skin. In the same way syphilis does 
 not arise before chancre ( which prevents the breaking out of syphilis) 
 has been destro3^ed by local applications. 
 
SULPHUR. 1 46 1 
 
 Many physicians, indeed, also gave sulphur internally; but the 
 ointment rubbed in had already driven away the disease from the 
 skin and some acute or chronic disease is the inevitable sad conse- 
 quence of this treatment. The sulphur given by allopathic phy- 
 sicians is also crude sulphur in doses which excite purging and 
 which, therefore, can never cure, nor have ever cured any itch by 
 the internal application alone. 
 
 If the mere drinking of sulphureous mineral waters without 
 their external application has ever been able to effect such a cure, 
 this w^as done because this substance had been comminuted in the 
 bosom of the earth in a mechanical manner similar to that em- 
 ployed by the homoeopath, and thus its internal medicinal virtues 
 had been developed. 
 
 Sulphur, given by the hand of the physician who does not pro- 
 ceed homoeopathically, and who, therefore, has not first dynamized 
 (potentized) this drug, and, indeed, potentized it highly, has never 
 cured the (primary) itch of workers in wool, through its merely in- 
 ternal application, which is the only safe way of applying it. The 
 more highly and intensivel}^ more strongly the sulphur has been 
 potentized, the more surely will it cure. 
 
 Formerly I considered the extract of sulphur, made with alcohol 
 and called tindura sidphziris, as sufficient; but now, after having ex- 
 perimentally compared it, I consider it far inferior to the other prepa- 
 rations, effected by triturating the flowers of sulphur with one 
 hundred parts of sugar of milk, up to the millionth-potency and the 
 further dynamization of the solution of this potency, in the manner 
 cmplo3^ed with other dry drugs. The latter dynamization I am com- 
 pelled to recognize as the most perfect sulphur-medicine. The alco- 
 hol in the tinctura sulphuris seems only to attract some particular 
 portion of the sulphur, but not all of its constituents without excep- 
 tion, /. (?., not the entire sulphur. 
 
 In cases where sulphur was homoeopathically indicated, it also 
 relieved the following ailments, if present at the same time: 
 
 Irritability; peevishness and dejection; tendency to start; timidit}^- 
 inclination to weep; ill humor; unconsolable state concerning every

 1 The pathogenesis of Sulphur has grown from the 151 symptoms it had on its first ap- 
 pearance in the Mj,t. M;d. Pura (Vol. IV, ist ed., rSiS) to the 1909 it here presents. Most of 
 the additions are Hahnemann's own, and — the drug being in constant use by him in the 
 treatment of chronic diseases— were pretty certainly symptoms obser\'ed on patients. Those 
 of Fr. Hahnemann (and of Fr. Walther, not mentioned above, but to be found in the patho-

 SULPHURICUM ACIDUM, SULPHURIC ACID. 
 
 This well-known acid, very corrosive in its concentrated state, is 
 now made directly from sulphur, but formerly it was gained by the 
 distillation of green vitriol (or copperas) and was on that account 
 called oil of vitriol or vitriolic acid. 
 
 One drop of sulphuric acid in its concentrated state is dynamized 
 for homoeopathic use by being shaken up with 99 drops of distilled 
 water by concussive strokes. To continue this potentizing, one 
 drop of this potenc}' is shaken up wnth 99 drops of alcohol, and so 
 on for further potencies. 
 
 Sulphuric acid, where homoeopathically indicated, removed also

 ZINCUM, ZINC. 
 
 Rub a piece of pure metallic zinc on a whetstone under distilled 
 water, in a clean porcelain bowl; the gray powder deposited on the 
 bottom is dried on white blotting paper, and one grain of it is used 
 to prepare the d3mamized preparations of zinc, in the same manner 
 as with other dr}^ drugs, in the manner described at the conclusion 
 of the first part of Chronic Diseases, but with a greater number of 
 succussive strokes than is indicated there. 
 
 Where the dynamized preparation of zinc was homceopathically 
 suitable, it also removed, if given in proper doses, the following ail- 
 ments, if present: 
 
 Indisposition to work and to walk; thoughts of death, as if she 
 had to die; weakness of memory; constant muddled sensation of the 
 head; gloominess; sore pain in the head; humming in the head; pain 
 of the hairy scalp, as if festering underneath; baldness; dryness of 
 the eyes; amaurosis, with contracted pupils; parah'sis and closing 
 of the ej^elids; buzzing in the ears; looseness of the teeth; painful- 
 ness of the teeth when chewing; sore pains in the teeth; salt}^ taste

 sleep after meals; the sleep at night, full of ravings; frightful dreams; 
 talking and screaming in sleep; tendency to perspire by day; noc- 
 turnal perspiration. 
 
 Too violent an action is moderated, but only for a short time, by 
 a solution of camphor; (sometimes by smelling of a preparation of 
 ignatia); but the greatest moderation is effected by smelling of 
 a preparation of sulphur. 
 
 To the observations as to the peculiar symptoms of zinc, given 
 in no 2 of Vol. VI of the Archiv fiier homoeopathische Heilkunst by the 
 Doctors Fra?i2, Frz.; Hartmanii, Htm.; Ha^ibold, Hbd.; Ruckert, 
 Rkt.; and Stapf, Stf.; as well as by Councillor, Baron vo?i Gersdorff, 
 Gff., I have added my own observations as well as those of a 
 young learned man from Switzerland, Lesquereur, Lqr. , and those of 
 the Doctors Schweikert, Sw.\ Rummel, Rl.; Hartlaub, Htb., and 
 also the later observations of the above mentioned Councillor, Dr. 
 Baron von Gersdorff, who has done so much to further the homoeo- 
 pathic art of healing. The symptoms marked [A^.] are from the 
 well-known anonymous prover in the Reine Arzneimittellehre of

 1 Hahnemann's own contribution to the pathogenesis of Zinc consists mainly of the 753 
 symptoms credited to him in the first edition, which from the preface we may gather to have 
 been observed on patients taking the iSth dihition. Those of Franz and his five associates 
 above referred to were obtained mainl}- from provings with the ;st trituration. The sources

INDEX 
 
 TO THE FIRST OR THEORETICAL PART. 
 
 ABDOMINAL AFFECTIONS not unfrec^uently pass over into pains in the 
 joints or into paralysis, 6; they are sometimes caused by suppressed itch, 
 24. Abdominal symptoms caused by psora, 59. 
 
 ADVENTITIOUS FORMATIONS mostly caused by psora, 7. 
 
 AGGRAVATION, homoeopathic, as a sign of incipient cure, 120. 
 
 ALLOPATHIC TREATMENT, its effects, i. Under allopathic treatment the 
 aggravation of the psoric chronic diseases proceeds without any escape, 
 15; allopathy in sycosis, 83; in syphilis, 87, 88, 93. Allopathic excuses 
 for suppressing itch, answered, loi. Allopathic use of sulphur is only 
 harmful, 105. Only an allopath can advise chronic patients to drink 
 strong pure wine to strengthen themselves, iii. The medicinal diseases 
 caused by allopathic misuse of medicines, a great obstacle to the cure of 
 psora, 114. Allopathy has not been able to cure any chronic disease, 
 only to alleviate it, 139. 
 
 AMAUROSIS caused by suppressed itch, 24. 
 
 ANTHRAX, 34. 
 
 ANTIPSORIC REMEDIES, 7. X'/hile an antipsoric medicine is duly acting, 
 no other medicine should be given to cure a slight intervening ailment, 
 119. The best time for taking antipsoric remedies is in the morning, 
 fasting, 137; the patient should keep perfectly quiet, but not go to sleep, 
 137; not to be taken before the menses, 138. Pregnancy offers no obstruc- 
 tion to antipsoric treatment, but is favorable to it, 138. Antipsoric reme- 
 dies, how to be recognized beforehand, 144. Most of the earths, alkalies 
 and acids, as also suphur, phosphorus and other combustible substances, 
 cannot be dispensed with in curing psora, 144. 
 
 ANXIETY from psora, 75. 
 
 APOPLEXY caused by the suppression of itch, 30. 
 
 APPETITE affected by psora, 58. 
 
 ASTHMA caused by suppressed itch, 18; as also suffocating asthma, asthma 
 with general swelling, asthma with dropsy of the chest, 20. Asthma 
 from psora, 67, 68. 
 
 BATHS. Warm and hot baths nnist be discontinued during antipsoric treat- 
 ment, substituting lukewarm ablutions, 141. 
 
 BEER cannot be permitted to chronic patients, especially on account of the 
 prevalent admixture of harmful ingredients, m.

 psora, 66. 
 
 CERVICAI^ GlyANDS, swelling of same caused by suppressed itch, 23. 
 
 CHANCRE. The chancre, so long as it remains, keeps the venereal disease 
 from breaking out, 39, 87. The destruction of the chancre is always fol- 
 lowed by syphilis, 88. When the chancre disappears from the use of 
 internal remedies, the internal syphilis is cured, 91. 
 
 CHANGE to a new remedy, before the old has exhausted its action, ought to 
 be carefully avoided, 122.

 CHRONIC DISEASES, Homoeopathic partial success in curing them before 
 the discovery of the antipsorics, 2. They are temporarily checked by 
 favorable surroundings, 3. All chronic non-venereal diseases have their 
 cause in psora, 5. Most chronic diseases caused by the ancient miasma 
 of leprosy or modern itch, 8. All chronic diseases if not cured, are con- 
 tinually aggravated, 9. Seven-eighth of the chronic diseases spring 
 from the suppression of itch, 14. Enumeration of the same, 77 (note). 
 Chronic diseases will be found varied by an intervening epidemic disease, 
 so as to require another antipsoric to complete the cure, 133. The latest 
 symptoms added in a chronic disease always yield first, the oldest, last, 
 135. When the treatment is half completed the disease returns into 
 latent psora, but it must be followed up to its complete termination, else 
 a new chronic disease will arise, 136. A great chronic disease of, 10, 20, 
 30 or more years, is quickly cured if this is done in one or two years, 136. 
 The strength of a chronic patient ought to steadily increase under hom- 
 oeopathic treatment, 137. 
 
 CIvIMATIC differences cause changes in the common psora, enumeration, 143. 
 
 CLYSTER. A clyster of clean, lukewarm water in constipation is permissible 
 at the beginning of antipsoric treatment, 140.

 DOMESTIC REMEDIES must be discontinued during antipsoric treatment, 
 
 141. 
 DOSES, too large, their harmful effects, even in Homoeopathy, 120. Doses can 
 
 hardly be made too small, 120.

 long as it visibly advances the cure, 125. 
 DYSENTERY, autumnal, first healed by Homoeopathy, 4. 
 
 EAR-AFFECTIONS caused by psora, 55. 
 
 ElyECTRICITY. Hahnemann first recommended the lightest electric sparks 
 in paralytic and benumbed parts, but he took this back; substituting cold 
 w^ater (54° Fahrenheit), 141. 
 
 ENDEMIC diseases with their striking pertinacity depend almost wholly on a 
 psoric complication, 134. 
 
 EPIDEMIC diseases when cured frequently leave behind them a psora develop- 
 ing into a chronic disease, 133. The great epidemic diseases, after com- 
 pleting their course, frequently must be followed by antipsoric treat- 
 ment, 134. The sequelae of epidemic diseases are really chronic diseases 
 springing from a developed psora, 134.

 latent and confined, 39. Recent itch has been cured, by one dose of sul- 
 phur, or of carbo vegetabelis, or of sepia, 105 (note). Itch from a new

 ent, 118.

 MEDICINES, article on, 143,-152. Medicines having in their crude state 
 little or no medicinal virtue, such as salt and lycopodium, and gold, 
 quartz and alumina, become when potentized b}' trituration, very 
 powerful, 145. They change their qualities becoming soluble, while 
 but little subject to chemical action, 145, 146; dry substances are to be 
 prepared by trituration, as also dry vegetable substances, to the mill- 
 ionth powder trituration, 147; then the dynamization is continued 
 by dissolving the attenuation in alcohol and water, and shaking it, 
 147. The preparation of phosphorus for medicinal purposes, 14S 
 (note). After the first solution is made in alcohol and water, so as to 
 dissolve the sugar of milk, the higher potencies are carried on with 
 pure alcohol, 150. The pellets which are moistened with these 
 attenuations should be of the size of poppy seeds, 151. Medicines are 
 given best, dissolved in water and in divided doses, 156. This solution 
 should be stirred ever^- time, 156. The solution of the medicine can 
 
1596 INDEX. 
 
 also be rubbed in on any healthy part of the body, thus increasing its 
 
 action, 158. Ten strokes were used for potentizing the medicines in 
 
 the attenuating bottles, 159.

 symptoms appear, 32. Contagion by chronic miasmatic diseases, 35. 
 
 The miasma is incorporated at the time of infection, 36, 89. As soon 
 
 as the miasm of itch touches the skin, the whole organism is infected, 
 
 37. The miasma of itch is contained in the eruption of itch, also in 
 
 the tinea capitis and in the humid tetter, 39.

 St. Anthony's Fire, to; it reassumed the form of leprosy through the re- 
 turn of crusaders, 10, described in the Bible, 10; Psora in changing from 
 leprosy to itch, lost the persistence of its eruption, 13. Sometimes allevi- 
 ated by sulphur baths, 16. Psora is the most contagious of all chronic 
 miasmata, for it needs only to touch the ordinary skin, 37. Modes of 
 contagion enumerated, 37. It usually takes 6, 8 or 10, perhaps even 14 
 days before the whole organism is transformed into psora; then follow a 
 chill, heat and sweat and the eruption breaks out, 37, 97. The longer 
 the psora with its skin-symptom has lasted, the more destructive are the 
 consequences of the suppression of the itch, 40. Even at its acme psora 
 can be healed by the internal, specific Homoeopathic remedies far more 
 easily and certainly, than after the suppression of the eruption, 41 (note) 
 98. Psora is ineradicable without the aid of art, 43. If the eruption of 
 itch is at once repressed, the psora increases but slowly, 43. Symp- 
 toms of latent psora enumerated, 45, 47. Persons who have this 
 latent psora will at a slight provocation be subject to one or another 
 of the nameless (psoric) chronic diseases,. 48, 49; illustrations in note, 
 48, 49, 50. Symptoms of the awakening of the internal psora enumer- 
 ated, 52, 77. Article on psora, 97-141. Merely internal psora, 98. 
 Importance of the eruption, 98. Chronic diseases removed by the re- 
 appearance of the eruption, 98; still the internal psora is then not in the 
 same state as before, 98; this reappearance must at once be made use of 
 to cure the disease, as it is transitory, 99. Artificially reproduced itch is 
 of little use, 100 (note). Sulphur used externally is attended with 
 dangerous consequences, 102; given internally in large doses, it is also 
 harmful, 103. Developed psora is only temporarily alleviated by sulphur 
 baths, 104. An old psora can never be cured by sulphur alone, 105; 
 several antipsorics are necessary, 105. Recent itch has been cured by 
 one dose of sulphur, or of Carbo vegetabilis, or of sepia, 105 (note), 106. 
 Diet and mode of living of psoric patients, 107, 117. Some work is use- 
 ful, 107; bodily exercise should be taken, 107; all domestic remedies or 
 other medicines must be discontinued, 108; baths cannot be allowed, only 
 ablutions, 108. Diet in chronic psoric cases need not be too strict, 109; 
 coffee must be discontinued, 109. Also tea, no; diluted wine in modera- 
 tion can be used, no; whiskey and brandy must be discontinued, wine 
 maybe substituted, no. Beer cannot be permitted, especially on account 
 of the prevalent admixture of harmful ingredients, in. Vinegar, citric 
 acid and acid fruits are generally injurious, in; sweet fruits can be 
 allowed only in moderate quantity, in. Most spices are harmful, 
 enumerated, in. Certain patients should avoid chickens and eggs, in. 
 The food most useful, in. Pork, pickled and smoked meat should 
 rarely be used, 112; old cheese and potherbs should be avoided, 112. 
 Tobacco should be limited, if it cannot be stopped, especially' in the form 
 of snuff, 112; grief and vexation should be kept as far as possible from 
 chronic patients, 113; medicinal diseases, a great obstacle to the cure of 
 psora, 114, 117. So also debility, 117; also the suppressed sexual instinct, 
 117 (note); too great age, an obstacle to cure, 117. The exhalation from 
 swamps most strongly develops a latent psora, 134. The common psora 
 is variously modified in different climates, 143.

 Count Buquoy, 103 (note). Suggested by Hahnemann, 125. 
 
 REPETITION, immediate, of the same medicine, allowable in certain cases in 
 acute diseases, 126; it should be in a different potency, 127; in case of 
 recent itch, sulphur may thus be repeated, though better with the inter- 
 position of Hepar s. c, 127. With the exception of sulphur, hepar and 
 sepia, few antipsorics bear repeating, 127.

 129; this mode is preferable where the action of a medicine has been in- 
 terrupted, 129. This is also the preferable method with patients who are 
 extremely irritable, 159.

 SUDDEN cures of chronic diseases usually show that the wrong medicine was 
 
 chosen; they do not last, 130. 
 SL'LPHUR was early recognized as having a specific virtue against itch, 102; 
 
 even by Celsus, 102; but it had dangerous sequelae, when used externally, 
 
 102. It is only effective in homoeopathic doses, 103.

 SYPHIIvIS, 9, 10, II. S. has in the permanence of its external symptom an 
 advantage over itch, 12. S3'philis and Sycosis are the cause of one-eighth 
 of the chronic dieases, 14; easily cured, 14. Syphilis is caused by the 
 destruction of the chancre through local applications, 36. Article on 
 syphilis, 87-95. When the chancre or bubo disappears through the use 
 of internal remedies, the internal syphilis is cured, 91. Even after the 
 chancre has disappeared, even when the bubo has already formed, if 
 there are no other complications, it can be cured by a homoeopathic dose 
 of mercury, 91, 92. Sign of this cure, 91, 92. When complicated with 
 developed psora, it cannot be cured alone, 193. This is usually caused by 
 allopathic mistreatment, 93. This causes the spurious syphilis or pseudo 
 syphilis, 93. In this case the psora symptoms must first be overcome, 
 then the others, 94. Complications with the other chronic miasms, 95. 
 
 TEA. The use of tea has augmented the tendency to chronic diseases, 13; it 
 must be discontinued in chronic, psoric diseases, no. Herb teas, Bald- 
 win tea, etc., must be discontinued during antipsoric treatment, 141.
