WE all agree that provings are the foundation of our Materia Medica; that the results should be made accessible to the student, and especially to the harassed practitioner, and this in the most convenient way. We might dwell on many questions, for instance: Shall we adopt only the older well-proved drugs, and drop the large number of newly-proved medicines ? Or on the questions: What deserves to be proved? Who is able to make such im- portant experiments? How ought they to be made? What precautions ought to be taken regarding the preparation of the drug, the dose, etc., etc. ? These questions are all of great importance, and each one deserves a careful consideration, particularly as it seems that a majority of practitioners are completely overcome by the mass of our collection, and, stunned as it were, they unanimously agree in the cry: Sifting is the first thing to be done! We have no doubt false symptoms in abundance! Let us first purify! One of our best authors gave expression to this pre- dominating view, by stating before a respectable society that, "Our Miateria Mledica is loaded with uncertainties." Allowing, for the sake of argument, that such is the case, pray, what is uncertain and what is not ? If we intend to throw overboard what is false,-no doubt a very desirable * Proceedings of the Horn. Med. Society of Ohio, Feb., 1867, p. 90. (v) INTRODUCTJON. undertaking,-it ought to be known first: what a c',tain symptom is; and, when it is known why it is certain, you may separate what we then have a right to consider uncertain. After this is done, we must not condemn "uncertain symrp- toms" on account of their mere uncertainty, because they still may be true and useful. It is an old wise rule, and very ap- plicable also in this case: "while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them; let both grow together until the harvest." Our harvest is practice and the collection of cases cured. Having it in view to make Materia Medica accessible in the first place, we will also aim at making it as convenient as possible, so that every practitioner may use what is stored up, and be enabled to take his part in this great wished-for undertaking, "to gather the tares to be burned, and to gather the wheat into the barn." In order to make this more generally understood, let us explain the different steps to be taken. The first step is: we suppose the provings of a drug have been made bona fide, and with all the care Hahnemann has urged in his Organon, which is, withal, a human undertaking, and thus liable to error. How do we find out what may be false, or what certainly is false ? Some rejected all that they pleased to call secondary effects; others found out by experience that these were the most im- portant and most useful. Some reject what they please to call individual symptoms, "arising from peculiarities in the consti- tution of the prover;" others insist that we never can obtain any other but such as the prover is liable to, and that, on the contrary, the more individual they are, the better, and the more usefuil. Some critics get into a fury if one only talks of proving higher potencies; others show by facts, that such symptoms- of course, if they are real symptoms of the drug-are of much more value than all the others. Shall we wait until all such disputed points are satisfactorily settled? INTRODUCTION. The safest and most certain way is, at the same time, the shortest; let us collect what has been given us bona fide, and put the test of practice to it. We shall soon see the tares. Another outcry is that against its great "bulk." It is true that a large collection makes more work in the arrangement of it. But after it is arranged, it is much easier to find what we want and leave out what we do not want, among a large collec. tion. Who would object to a library because it is too large ? If you have good catalogues, you have always a better chance of finding what you are looking for than in a small one. The next step is to make such collections of provings acces- sible, and to arrange the symptoms according to a certain scheme. It is always better, if we can afford it, to have the daybooks of provers printed, and if a subscription could be raised, it ought to be done with each and every one. But we cannot wait for that, and if we had them, and could make good use of them for different scientific purposes, still we could never use a collection of day-books of provers for practice. The practitioner, after having taken the symptoms of a case, and having his attention called to one or several of the proved medicines, wants to convince himself whether the leading symptoms of his case are to be found in this or another drug; and also whether that which is predominant in the case, is likewise predominant among the symptoms; in short, whether the characteristics of the case are characteristics of the drug. The practitioner should have a well arranged index, to all that has been observed of such a drug. He may use a repertory or a therapeutical work, or may be ruled by his own experience; in all cases his attention will be drawn to one or two or sev- eral drugs, and he will be obliged to compare them until he finds the most similar. At least, this is the way to become successful as a practitioner, and not to be deceived by acci- dental cures. Hahnemann, who had his first collections of drug-symptoms arranged in groups, (1805,) with a general index of the whole, soon found that he had to adopt a scheme and arrange the symptoms of each drug accordingly. INTRODUCTION. This scheme, published in the preface to the first volume of his Materia Medica, is very peculiar, but of a thoroughly prac- yal nature. It commenced with the symptoms of the head, ;king the senses next, the eyes, ears, nose, then the face, the lis, and mouth; it went from above down to the function of igestion, and through to the alvine evacuations, appending the uri'ary department and the sexual. Here a stop was made, as it were, and a new beginning again made above with the respiratory organs. After the many symptoms of the chest, all of the trunk, back, and neck were given; then the upper extremities, the lower, and symptoms of all the limbs. The general symptoms of the whole body made the conclusion, all referring to sleep and the febrile phenomena. This scheme, Hahnemalnn used in all the six volumes of his Materia Medica, even in the second and third editions, and in the five volumes of his chronic diseases, from 1810 to 1830, perfecting it all along. The only essential alteration he made was, in the second edition of the chronic diseases, 1835, when he adopted what Hartlaub had already done in his Materia Medica, 1828, placing the symptoms of the mind, which had been the last of all, now before the head, and beginning with them. The same order will be followed in the new edition of the Materia Medica, not only because it is HIahnemann's order, and sanctioned by the usage of half a century, but because it is decidedly better than any other of the many proposed, which can easily be demonstrated. The most absurd of all, was a certain misorder commenced and carried out in the compilation of Noack & Trinks, which was too readily adopted by Jahr. What Hahnemann had con- cluded to do with the symptoms of the mind, was here continued in reversed order; and thus all the so-called generalities were placed at the head; a more nonsensical mixture than this begin- ning of each medicine by enumerating a bundle of the most heterogeneous morbid affections, was never set in type. The most diverse and altogether incoherent matters and things were given as generalities, and set at the head of the whole, INTRODUCTION. 1X followed by symptoms of the skin, rarely of any use, next the sleep and the febrile symptoms, always useless without the local and special functions; and the poor soul was squeezed in " Zwischen Schweiss und Schwindel," between the sweat and "muddleheadedness." The last was the soles of the feet, and corns on the little toe. No image is left in this way. The mind, even if we begin synthetically, always requires a synthetical conclusion after an analysis. Generalities have no ground to rest upon, unless peculiarities are first given and stored up. Names of diseases are only given as a very subordinate matter; they are inserted in the most suitable places only to call the attention of the practitioner towards them, and invite to a comparison of the real symptoms. All such names have not only been continually changing, like the bonnets in the milliners' shops, but all diseases, even such as are propagated by a seed as it were, or such as depend on the same miasm or the same atmospheric or telluric influ- ences, are all the time, every year, or in a course of years, changing very essentially. Can there be a more essential change, at least for us, than one which indicates another entirely different medicine? If one drug will cure nearly all cases of hooping-cough or intermittent fever at one time, and the next time the same drug will not, but another will, is this not an essential enough change? It matters not what name we give to an epidemic: we ought of course to be able to name it; but this has nothing at all to do with the selection of the medicine which will cure it. Our Materia Medica would be entirely misunderstood if we expected to find in each drug a certain "disease" or a noso- logical form. This is never the case and cannot be, for, accor- ding to Aetiology, it is an impossibility. We never can expect to find a remedy for a "disease," and in fact we have nothing to do with " diseases," only with the sick. Every sick indi- vidual is a reality, but every disease is an abstraction. Hence INTRODUCTION. we may sometimes find a medicine corresponding to a ma. jority of patients suffering from what pathologically may receive the same name,-and it may be of assistance to know this; but we never can depend on it, if we wish to be successful. In every epidemic we ought to try to find the most similar remedy to the most characteristic symptoms. But every year there will be not only " shades of difference," called " mere modifications," but other characteristics essentially changing the whole indication. We never could establish or discover such characteristics as we want for an indication, without an arrangement of the symptoms of each drug. And if characteristics have been established, we cannot compare the cases before us to find out a corresponding similarity, without a well-arranged enumera- tion of all the observed symptoms. Thus our success in prac- tice and our progress in improving, and corroborating Materia Medica depends first on the arrangement for facilitating com- parison. Hahnemann's original order had only in some points to be altered, as far as it seemed unavoidable, by following some of his own propositions. The adopted order not only follows the body of man from up downwards, but also from within out- wards; this is the same way we try to overcome sickness, as the real improvement of the sick not only goes from up down- wards, (for instance, rheumatism and gout,) but principally from the inward to the more outward, ending in the skin as the outmost, (for instance after antipsorics.) This arrangement has been somewhat modified; the altered functions of the senses are given first, and the organic symptoms afterwards; after the muscular apparatus of the upper and lower limbs the trunk, and all the limbs have been given, the symptoms of the whole body follow: first the alterations of the nervous function; then in a more natural order, sleep; after sleep the febrile depart- ment, and'last of all the skin as the outmost. Hahnemann always left together symptoms appearing in groups, if he considered them really connected and of use INTRIODUCTION. in the same connection; he only separated what he found by practice could be used also in other combinations; for in- stance, he observed forty-five minutes after taking Pulsatilla, a cramp in the legs, in the evening after lying down, with a chill (711, 1st ed.), and another time, in the evening, an aching drawing pain in the legs up into the knee, with more chilliness than during the day (686, 1st ed.) And as he observed that most pains of Pulsatilla were accompanied by chills or chlilli- ness (note page 276), he stated (858, 1st ed.) with the pains in the evening a chill. Observing with several provers, besides himself, an absence of thirst (except sometimes with the fever or for beer) he made it a separate and distinguishing sympton, thir.stlessness.-2 42, 1st ed. Leaving the groups together, somt symptoms, say of the head, are consequently mentioned as connected with fever symptoms, or, if in the night and connected with sleep, men- tioned there, etc. Iahnemann introduced what hlie called parallel quotations. (Mat. Med. 1st part 1st Ed., 1811, p. 7.) For instance, in Cocculus: symptom 36, taste in mouth as if he had been fasting; he referred to symptom 52, sensation in stomach as if he had eaten nothing for a long while, and vice versa. The first had its place in the mouth and taste, the other only in the stomach symptoms. Again, Nux vom.: symptom 62, 1st ed., tearing in the eyes, forehead, and vertex without intermission, with nausea as if in the chest, squeamish- ness and weakness of the organs of speech. He quoted 713 and 714 where the same squeamishness appears in another con- nection, and then again, 246, where it appears after eating. Hahnemann says, in Ist ed., p. 7: "1I placed the symptoms in a certain order, principally so as to facilitate the finding of a symptom looked for. Among the compound symptoms there are some, where a quotation of their parallels ought to have been made in the proper place, if my time had allowed it." See the second edition, page 7, and the third and last, page 8. Hahnemann's wish was, to have such quotations of the parts of combined symptoms made everywhere and throughout; and INTRODUCTION. if we study the symptoms of each medicine where he has given them with particular care, for instance, Pulsatilla and China, we are enlightened and instructed by him: we see how carefully he studied his own Materia Medica, and see what points or pecu- liarities he considered of importance. He certainly studied and compared every one of his collections of symptoms in the same manner, but his time did not allow him to write down and quote the number of each symptom in writing. Every new edition required a change of the numbers: a very laborious, tedious task. In the second edition of the first volume they were for this reason entirely omitted. Suppose one of us could take the time to give all such paral- lel quotations, in each of all our medicines, and thus enable every student to take this first and important step towards the knowledge of a drug, the comparative study of all its provings, of all its symptoms, and of all the peculiarities of the same: suppose this was done, who w6uld take the time to use them, look to the numbers quoted, hunt up each ntmber, read the symptoms and compare them one after the other, again and again? Very few. A great many would say, "Our time does not allow it." But suppose this is done, and every corresponding peculiarity of every symptom is not only quoted everywhere, but given in substance in every place where it might be expected and looked for by the student or physician. For instance, the quoted symptom of Nux vom., tearing in eyes, etc., appears in the second edition as 54 among the head symptoms, tearing in ver- tex, forehead, eyes, with, etc., and in the third edition as 64. Ought this not to have been mentioned among the other symp- toms of squeamishness, and particularly the weakness of the organs of speech; whereby the two other similar symptoms of this remedy would have been corroborated? This would, if printed, of course increase the bulk, but it would facilitate the study; it would save time in all the infinite number of cases where it may be used afterwards; time is worth a great deal amid the throng of urgent duties when filled by the ardent de- INTRODUCTION. .ii sire to find in an important case the most similar, as soon as possible. This comparative arrangement of all known symptoms of each drug has been made and carried out, and this is the charac- teristic of the new edition of our Materia Medica. This is also the first sound and safe step towards perfec- tion, and towards a purifying criticism; for it not only facili- tates the student's becoming intimate with the whole charac- ter of the drug; but it also makes it possible for the student to compare one drug with another; it saves time to the prac- titioner, because he can now find much more quickly what he may be looking for. Not only all this is gained by it, but much more: it enables us to judge of the value or the soundness of each and every symptom. It is true, a great many do not care very much about the soundness or certainty of their own judg- ment; they prefer to trust in the opinion of any one they have confidence in, because "their time does not allow it." The majority of Homceopathicians, for more than thirty years, have preferred an epitome ready made, and the shorter and cheaper this is, the better they like it. Experience shows how ready such are to take for granted what another has made up for sale. The same- confidence which they place in Jahr, the conscientious, over-careful, anxious, rather pedantic, and very industrious man, they place in Noack & Trinks, who are arbitrary, full of errors, ruled by prejudice and malignity more than love of truth. All these epitomes have done harm to the profession; students get bewildered by them, and indifferent practitioners are misled. In sciences and arts the majority have no right to rule. Since the beginning of history, truth has always been first received by the few. Such physicians of our school as take for their leader the real Materia Medica, and not the procrus- tean distortions of its despoilers, will be the leaders of the rest. Comparative.monographies will enable every one to form his own opinion of the value of the one or the other symptom, or group of symptoms, of each drug. X1v INTRODUCTION. Every successful cure, with each drug, should be noted down as carefully as time will allow. Characteristics will grow out of this, like fruit on a tree. Characteristics will give us the first basis by which to measure the value and importance of all the symptoms of each drug. Comparative Materia Medica is the second step. If we com- pare such drugs as are, according to their origin or chemical qualities, similar to each other,-relations by offspring, or family,-and if we discover in that way the generic or family characteristics; and further, if we compare with them such as are of an entirely different origin or offspring, yet having cor- responding groups and modalities, which are indicated in the same forms of sickness, and are mutual antidotes,-relations by similarity of effects, by affinity, as it were by marriage,- and if we discover their special or peculiar individual charac- teristics, then we are enabled to pass judgment, sound and cer- tain, on every symptom whether it be genuine or false. "Let both grow together until the harvest ;" until we are able to judge with certainty, allow them the place they occupy. It is a few more sheets of paper, a little more printers' ink, and, as a matter of course, a few dollars more in the expense, that's all. It will be cheaper in the end. The bulk of the expensive and big volumes which we now have are full of absurd, arbi- trary, and misleading notions, mostly of men either without practice, or who obtained practice through the false credit gained by their books. These men are entirely unable to judge soundly in scientific matters. They and their followers have been and still are "wasting" literature, money, time, and real reputation based on real cures, and not on accidents. Take the symptoms of every case and try to find the best medi- cine in the real Materia Medica; learn to judge for yourselves, and you will be not only independent, but also more successful. Let every practitioner report his cases or at least his cured symptoms, and at the great harvest-time they will help to sepa- rate the true from the false, and a new, much abridged Materia Medica may be issued; not based upon the arbitrary notions of one, but on the united experience of all.

Nausea and faintness, accompanied with a sick, griping pain in the stomach, and loathing of food. R. A. R. SThe next day at noon, just as she returned from school, she was seized instantaneously with the most acute pain in the stomach; her mother saw her looking perfectly well, and in less than five minutes found her sitting drawn together with her knees against her breast, and a face like a corpse; deathly pallor; lips blue. She said: " Oh, mether, I feel so strangely, I think I have the cramp." ('ham. relieved, but there remained great vertigo and nausea; she complained of being very cold, but did not shudder; great weakness, as after long illness, with headache lasting all afternoon. A. R. 240. About 3J and 4 o'clock, P. M., sitting in church, she was seized with a sharp, steady pain in the stomach, accompanied by the most deathlike faintness she ever recollected to have felt, with extreme sickness and immediate loss of strength. A cold sweat covered her; she thinks she must have been deathly pale, for she felt as ALUM, ALUMEN. though the blood (which had at first been driven to the head by the suddenness and severity of the pain) were leaving it and the extremities altogether; they were quite cold; her sight grew dim, and she became so faint that she expected every moment to fall from her seat. The pain in stomach felt as though it would draw her double. Having no friend near her she feared to make the attempt to leave the pew, lest she should not have strength to reach the door unaided, much less her home. The attack lasted, she thinks about half an hour, after which the violence of the pain gradually abated, the faintness passed off, the chilli- ness gave place to heat, and the blood rushed to her head with such a force, that she could hardly hold it up, or keep her eyes open, though quite conscious of the services going on about her. After services she was able to walk slowly home, though very weak, feeling very much as if she had been ill for a month. She felt the weakness especially in her back, although she had no pain there, but during the rest of the evening, whenever drawing a long breath, it appeared to come from a spot on each side of the spine, about the middle of the back, on a line with the in- ferior angles of the scapulae; 5th d.

I tottered to a chair, when a cold sweat broke over me. The effort to vomit ceased, though the nausea continued, attended by a flushing to my head, extreme faintness, and a disposition to shiver.

S*In intermittent fever it was much used by Etmuller, Lindt, Muller, and others. . Notwithstanding it causes dryness of tongue, mouth, and throat, similar to that which obtains in typhus and typhoid fever, it still has been strongly recommended in those diseases by Fus- ter, Fouquier, Dobler, and Skodat The two former recommend it in the second stage ot abdominal typhus, when, in conse- quence of ulceration of the abdominal mucous membrane and of its glandular apparatus, there are ichorous, offensive, and blood-mixed loose stools. In 1838, Drs. Dobler, Skoda, Her, and Folwarenzy placed their sole reliance upon it; many hun- dreds of cases have been treated and saved by it. Waring.

Husmann was reported in the last volume of Stapf's Archives, Vol. 23, 103. in the year 1846, when the first notice of Fr. Husmann's provings was given, and filled only eleven lines, still they have given occasion to one of the meanest slanders in the history of our school. Dr. Roth, in Paris, who made himself somewhat conspicuous as one of the would- be-critics of Hahnemann and Hahnemann's strict adherers, states in a note to his " Studies " in Clotar Muller's Quarterly, last Vol., p. 122, 1865, that he had " bo11 re referred to this case as one in which C. Itg. could not diagnose fissures in the anus from cancer of the rectum !" As he did not say when or where he had made this statement, and as no one since could tell me where to look for it, I am not able, up to this moment, to give a quota- tion ! If I had read the remark I should not have deemed it of sufficient importane to notice it, for if I had made such a blunder I should have received the proof of having made it with a smile, as I can afford to make a blunder much worse than that would have been. But, in the first place, it was not my own case; it was Dr. Ilusmann's; secondly, it was not stated to have been a cancer of the rectum, but a probable one; thirdly, from the short report contained in eleven lines given in Stapf's Archives, it was impossible to make out anything like a proof of the case having been one of fissures, and not of cancer. Therefore, if I ever had seen Roth's remark I should have classed it among the many malicious boastings of would-be-critics, not worth mentioning. But nineteen yeears later there appears a slander; not even an original one, but a mere copy of a similar one in the British Quarterly. Such a tenacious life have poisonous reptiles! In the history of our school, the so-called criticisms of Materia Medica take up a large space, and it is of importance that our younger colleagues should know all about them. The page and a half left in this publication of Alum will therefore be made use of to give a short historical review. Hahnemann's Materia Medica was attacked by the old school from 1805 up to the time when our enemies commenced to try to kill us by silence. The Anti-Hahne- mannians, beginning among the Homosopathic school, in 1830 repeated nearly all ob- jections made by the old school, adding but a few equally absurd. In Vienna, the old school doctors commenced a series of provings on the healthy, in order to refute Iliomoeopathy. They failed and had to give up. In Vienna the homoeoprathicians commenced a longand very valuable series of re-provings, in order to refute Hahne- mann. They failed and had to give up. Watzke, a very learned and gifted man, was forced to acknowledge the greater effect of the so-called smaller doses. The re-proving of Colocynthis and Aconite in 40 ALUM, ALUMEN. 1844, of Argentum and 7'Thvya in 1846. of 3Bronia in 1847, and Nar. muriaticum in 1848, had corroborated nearly every symptom in Hahnemann's provings, it being the same when the famous provings of Sulphur were published in 1857, the same with Clematis, the same with Cyclamen, the same with Lycopodium and Opium in 1862, and the same with Agaricus in 1863. Watzke was forced by facts to acknowledge already, in 1848, that the potencies caused more symptoms on the healthy and made more cures of the sick, and exclaimed, "Alas! I am sorry, but so it is !" Eidherr's scientific and elaborate extracts from the Vienna Hospital books, pub- lished in 1862, proved that the higher the potency the quicker the cure; at least in the second stage of pneumonia, when hepatization had commenced, showing that the more material the symptoms the more molecular the dose has to be. What did the anti-Hahnemannians do after such vindications of Hahnemann's doc- trine ? Like the old school, they scarcely took any notice of them. In the year 1859 the silence was interrupted in the tenth volume of Clotar Muller's Quarterly, by the" Studies" of Dr. Roth in Paris. They were received with great clapping of hands. Assuming an apparent intimacy with even the minutiae of our Materia Medica, and feigning the greatest carefulness, he filled sheet after sheet with reprinted symptoms, drawing the most absurd conclusions, and showing in every way his ignorance and want of a truly scientific education. He adopted all the tricks of the French novelists, imitated the manner of Feuilletonists, straining the attention of readers by suaden stops, and by giving a host of promises as if the most wonderful results for science would surely follow. Notwithstanding Roth's honorable mention of Dr. C. Hering (10, 246), the latter immediately offered to the editor of the Quarterly a defence of our Materia Medica. ' Wait! wait!" was the answer, "the best will come!" Roth's Razzia went on. Agaricus, Indiqo, Arsen., China, Veratr., were torn to pieces like rags, and mashed as if they had passed through a paper mill. In 1862 a translation of the new provings of Gelseminum was sent by C. Hg. to the Allg. Hom. Zeitung. Roth, repeated some compliments to C.Hg.(13, 487, 14, 162, &c ), but stated in his 13th Study, 13, 485: "The Homoeopathic Materia Medica of the present day has to put up with a severe re- proach. Instead of perfecting itself from the standpoint of its own merits, it has continually flirted with the old school of medicine; yes, even cast fond side glances on the physiological school. It has not only received, without discrimination, the impure material of careless workers, but has also scraped up the dirt from the debris of all medical schools, both old and new, to incorporate it with its new structure. However severe these expressions may sound, or poignantly these words may affect over-sensitive souls, one need but examine (leaving older transgressions out of the ques- tion), the article on Gelseminum now being printed in the Alig. Hom. Zeitung, Vol. 64 and 65, and I will no doubt be supported in my opinion, yes, all must admit, that deeper wounds have never been inflicted on Materia Medica." This was the " drop too much that made the bucket -run over," and C. Hg. insisted on his right to a defence of Hahnemann's Materia Medica. This was begun in 1863 (14, p. 394), under the title of "Moves on the Chessboard," and continued in Vols. 15 and 16. After check had been given to the queen (14, 238), and the 21st move threatened to checkmate the king, the publisher of the Quarterly was obliged to publish, very reluctantly, a Chinese Stink-pot, by Roth, in the form of a note (16, 122), at which the editor of the Quarterly got so indignant that he upset the chessboard by discontinuing the Journal. In the said note, Roth stated that the "long- choked rage of C. Hg. (because he, Roth, had shown C. Hg. did not know how to distinguish a fissure from a cancer), " bursts out now I" " Inde ira "he said, and in this consisted the slander. What follows corresponds to his mean manner, and deserves no answer. The '"long-choked rage " referred to, lived in darkness from 1846 to 1863, exactly 17 years. Exactly like the egg, larva, and pupa of a seventeen year locust! What a strange kind of rage it would have been to live underground such a long time and so many years, to come up finally to make its chirping noise! And now, strange it is, since Roth's Razzia, and since he poured out his Chinese Stink-pot, another term of seventeen years has passed, and the mean slander may be repeated : INDE IRA ! Such men ought to be classed among Les Miserables of Victor Hugo. All who can- not suppose any other notions but the meanest, and all who cannot imagine that a good cause could be defended by sound reasons and SIN aIR A IT STlIO C. Hg. CARBURETUM SULPHURIS C S2. BISULPHIDE OF CARBON-SULPHOCARBONIC ACID. HISTORY.-OLD SCHnooL. Scheele, in 1777, and Lampadius, in 1798, and again in 1803, accidentally found this volatile combination of Carbon with Sulphur. It was the opinion of the latter that it might become a useful drug. A long dispute of the chemists about its constituents was at last settled by Thenard, Berthollet and Vauquilin, in 1811, and by Berzelius in 1812. 1826.

NOTE.-Reading symptoms 199 to 214, every one can find the clearest indications of what has been vulgarly called "parsons sore throat," or erroneously "bronchitis." If we compare the larynx and cough, 559 to 575, we find indications enough to enable us to decide in every single case, whether this, or other drugs, will cure. [The effects from the barbarous and abomina- ble practice of cauterization with nitrate of silver, and destroy- ing as much epithelium and mucous membrane as is within reach, without ever producing the slightest benefit, but always driving it either down or up, ought to be counteracted, as much as pos- sible, by Natr. mur., before the symptoms are collected and compared.] Peters mentions in his Mat. Med. the homoeopathicity of U. S. to chronic pharyngitis, which, he says, "is so often mistaken for chronic bronchitis." He was himself, very much mistaken CARBURETUM SULPHIIURIS. 51 to suppose it of the slightest importance to give a case the one name or the other. The U. S. will cure one as well as the other, if the symptoms are similar. C. Hg. Appetite, -Thirst. 210 5. Appetite somewhat increased. Hld.

NOTE.-We learn from this proving, that we have as yet no right to draw conclu sions from the effects of constituent elements, and suppose the effects the same might have in consideration. Like the chemists, we have to find out by experiment, the quali- ties of each combination. Experience tells us that in some combinations, for instance, the Sulphuret of Mercury (Cinnabar) some characteristic effects of each of the constitu- ents are united and become more prominent. But again, they may be reversed, as for instance, in the Sulphuret of Lime (HIepar, s. c.), instead of the inclination to kick off the covering as in Sulphur or Calcarea, there is a desire to be covered up to the face. The Sulphuret of Carbon, although proved in 189, has been very rarely givea, not- withstanding that its elements, Sulphur, Graphites and Carbon are such important polychrests. The proving has been made with great care, and by very skillful observers, as also with a sufficient number of persons. It crntains no symptoms from provings with the higher potencies, so much objected to by Anti-Hahnemannian Homoeopathicians, and there are very few symptoms observed on the sick, while amongst the Sulphur and Graph- ites symptoms of our Materia Medica, there is a large number of such symptoms. In tetters, and all complaints arising from them, in rheumatic diseases, and especially in beginning Tuberculosis of the lungs or the bowels, Carb. sulph. promises to be a very useful remedy. It ought, however, to be given only when the symptoms of the case correspond. After we obtain characteristics, its administration may become a more frequent one. C. Hg. COCA. ERYTHROXYLON COCA. LAMARK. This genus alone forms, according to the natural classification, a separate family, nearest related to the Malpighiaces and Sapindacee, next to the Aceripaces and the Rhizobolea. From neither of these families have we added to our Mat. Med. by provings, save the £Esculus Hippocastanum, which is widely different in form and effect to the Coca. A bush six or eight feet high, small white flowers and bright green leaves. The characteristic sign of the leaf is an arched line on each side of the mid-rib. It ought to be transported only in hermetically sealed boxes. HISTORY. Used by the Incas, in Peru, before the time of its discovery by the Europeans. Now in general use by the Indians, as a narcotizing beverage. 1567. The Church declared it "a vain thing," and denounced it as a worthless substance, fitted for the superstitious misuse of the Indians. 1569. A royal manifesto forbade its use or cultivation. . . . A Jesuit, Don Antonio, published on the virtues of the Coca, a treatise called "Perla de America." 1605. Clusius mentions it. 1793. Dr. Don Pedro Molasco Crespo recommended it, particularly to mariners. 1794. Unanui. Dissertation on Coca. Lima. 1835. Ed. Pdppig. Reise in Chili, Peru, &c., during 1827-32, vol. 2, p. 298. 1846. J.

Poppig, Tschudi, and other travellers report their observations on the symptoms from chewing the leaves. Johnston gives a collection of such effects. Montegazza chewed one drachm of the leaves, 2, 3 times a day, for a number of days; afterwards took an infusion up to 4 drachms, and finally 18 drachms a day. J. Frankl took one or two cups of the tea before or after meals, for two weeks, daily. C1. Miller, a. masticated a leaf; 3d day, 2 drops of the tinct.; 5th day, 8 drops early. b, 5 drops tinct. 8 a. m.; 2d day, 10 drops; 7th day, 30 drops; 8th day, 40 drops; 11th day, 60 drops. c, masticated two leaves. d, 10 drops, t. Dr. Rauch took 1st and 2d decimal of the tincture; 7 a. min., 3 drops of 2; 3d day, 7 a. m., 5 drops of 1; 5th day, 7 a. m., 5 drops of 2; 8th, 10 drops of 2; 9th, 6 a. m., 15 drops of 2. Dr. Reichenbach took 10 drops of the 2d decimal, at 6 a. m.; next day the same; 8d d., 25 drops, 4th, 25 of 1st decimal; 6th, 10 drops of the tincture; 7th, the same; 8Ph , 4 a. inm., 25 drops tincture; 10th, 11 p. m., 10 drops; 11th, evening, 10 drops; COCA. 14th, early, 25 drops; 23d, 65 drops, before dinner. Second proving, 3 months later, of another tincture; 1st d., 25 drops; 2d d., 50 drops; 4th, 60 drops, early. Dr. Kallenbach after taking 5 to 10 drops of the tincture, at intervals of some days, took at noon. 50 drops of the tinct. Dr. Schubiger took 5 drops of the tinct., three successive mornings; the last day, after some bad beer, urinary symptoms. R. H. masticated 4, 5 leaves in the morning ; 2d d., two leaves; 3d d., the same; 4th d., 1 leaf; 7th d., 5 leaves; 9th d., 4 leaves, in the evening ; 11th d., 2 leaves; 13th d., 7 a. m., 2 leaves; 14th d., 2 leaves; 17th d., 2 leaves; 18th d., 2 leaves. R. H. was not considered as healthy a man as the other provers, ie had had al- most all the usual ailments of children; with 13 years, a severe nervous fever; with 17 years, peritonitis; with 19, inflammation of the lungs, and the same year, a gonorrhoea, (nine years ago) ; he is subject to sudden attacks of rheumatism, and still had, for some years, a dry papular eruption on the back of the hand. "S ome critics might consider provings on such individuals, to be of no value," says Cl. Mi'ller, one who always belonged to the new fashioned over-critical sect. He remarks, "most symptoms of this prover were so constant and evident, and, for the most part in accordance with the symptoms determined in the other provers," that he did not exclude them; and continues very wisely: " If it is wished to display such rigor and consistently to assist on a perfect integ- " rity of the prover's organism, in all probability, the greater part of our provers "would, necessarily be excluded. Such a painful, and, in fact, useless pedantry, "would, no doubt, partially reduce our little band of provers, already too small, and "and would leave the required perfect or absolute health still a pium desideratum." Hermine Pechareck, a lively girl of 9 years, took 10 drops of the tincture, from leaves which had been 17 years in a herbarium; d d., 15 drops; 3d, 4th and 5th, lays, same dose. Dr. Stokes observing no effects from smelling the tincture, for the space of one minute, took 10 drops in water, at 6 P. M. E. W. Berridge took one drop of the 21st centesimal potency, prepared by Dr. Wilson (in the presence of Drs. Ray, Scheibler and Berridge), with distilled water, giving 25 strong succussions to each potency, and then emptying the bottle and po- tentizing on the residuum. To the 21st alcohol was added. None of the provers knew the name of the medicine. First day, one drop of the 21st, well mixed with distilled water; 5th day, 10.35 p. mn., after supper, took a powder of Sacch. lact., containing a drop of 21st potency; 9th day, 11 p. m, another powder; 23d d., 8.49 a. m., another; 50th d., 2.45 p. m., 1 drop of 21st potency; 54th d., 3 drops of the mother tincture, on sugar; Gi61st d., 4.10 p. mn., 12 globules of 21st potency; 76th d., 7.25 a. m. and 11.30 p. min., same, dry on tongue, and so all the following days; 77th d., 7.15 a. m. and 11 p. m.; 78th d., 8.30 a. m. and at midnight; 79th d., 8.15 a. m. and 11.45 p.. m.; 80th d., 7.35 a. m. and 10.55 p. m.; 81st d., 8.15 a. mn. and 10 15 p. m.; 82d d., 8 a. m. and 1.10 p. m.; 83d d., 7.48 a. in. and 10.45 p. mn.; 84th d., 7.45 a. in. and 11.07 p. mn.; 85th d., 7.30 a. m. and 11.10 p. m.; 86th d., 9.07 and 11.15 p. nm.; 87th d., 8.10 a. mn. and 11.15 p. m.; 88th d., 7.55 a. min., 12 globules, and 11 p. m., 12 globules; 89th d., 7.35 a. m., 12 glo- bules, and 11 p. in., 16 globules; 90th d., 6.05 a. m., 20 globules. Mr. J. R. Croker, M. R. C. S., L. S. A.. Great Malvern, Worcestershire, took a powder of S. 1., containing 2 drops of 21st, in I tumbler of cold water, about 12.50. COCA. 79 Mr. Win. Ray, M. R. C. S., London; 1867, March 23d, 3.45 p. min., 1 drop 21st, well mixed with distilled water. March 27th, 4 p. min., 20 globules of 21st. Mr. B. F. Scheibler; 1867, March 28d, 3.45 p. m., one drop of 21st in a wine-glass of distilled water. March 27, 1 drop 21st, on S. I., dissolved in water and alcohol, deels inhalation on going to bed and on rising in the morning. May 6, several days, 1 globule of 21st, night and morning, 5 days. May 11, 1 drop of 21st in wine-glass- ful of water, 2.45 p. m. May 15th, 3 drops of mother tincture, on sugar. Dr. G. W. Pope, has on several occassions taken a strong decoction, chewed and swallowed a handful of the leaves. J. S. Lilienthal, over 54 years old, hale and hearty, "never had a headache in my life; of sanguineous temperament; have a hereditary diarrhoea, from which my brothers and sister suffer as well as myself, (we consider this as a safety-valve to carry off noxious matter, and never do anything for it, except it transcends its usual limits), took 4 drops of the tincture at 2 p. min., and half a teaspoonful of the tinct- ure at 4 p. m.; 12 p. m., again; 4th d., same, 7 a. m., 9 a. m., 2. p. m., a whole teaspoonful; 6th d., 5 p. min., teaspoonful; 7th d., 5 p. m., teaspoonful, 7 p. m., 3d dilution, teaspoonful; 9th, d., 4 p. m., teaspoonful; 10th and 11th d., drop doses of 30th, several times during the day. No symptoms." Addie Williams, M. D., put 10 drops of the tincture in half a glass of water; took a tablespoonful 4 p. m., another 7 p. m., another 10 p. m.; next day, same dose, every three hours ; 3d d., 20 drops, same way ; 4th d., teaspoonful tincture in tablespoonful of water, 4 times; 6th d., a strong infusion, drinking it freely during the evening; 7th d., same, several times during the day; continued 8th d., 9th morning and evening; 11th drank but once. Sarah A. Ferguson, M. D., took a strong infusion of the leaves in teaspoonful doses. April 4th, 8 and 10 a. min., repeating it at 1, 3, 5 and 7 p. m., next day; from 7 a. m., every two hours; 3d d., tablspoonful doses 7 and 8 a. m.; 4th d., table- spoonful, 8, 11 a. m. and 2 p. m.; 5th d., none; 6th d., 6.30 and 8.30, teaspoonful; 7td d., teaspoonful, early a. mn.; 8th d., same.

Also called Puna, sorracho, mareo; is the consequence of diminished atmospheric pressure, usually occur- ring at considerable heights; first symptoms appear at 12,600 feet high; vertigo; humming in the ears; indistinct vision, soon followed by headache and nausea; occurs even on horse- back; increases on ascending a hill, the greater the ascent, the more severe; a feeling of weariness amounts to an impossibility of advancing, owing to impeded respiration, and violent palpi- tation of the heart. Perfect rest relieves for a few moments, which, however, return with renewed severity, on continued movement, and are accompanied with fainting and violent sick- ness; the mucous membrane of the lungs and bowels be- comes affected; hoemoptysis and dysentery being the usual con- comitants of the severe form; and they may die fror loss r f 106 COoA. blood; sensation similar to sea-sickness, except the dyspnoea; the rarefied air seems not to be the only cause. Tsch. . *He felt the effects of the diminished atmospheric pressure; at each step, a degree of discomfort, never felt before; obliged to stand still and draw breath, scarcely could do so; endeavored to advance, but was overpowered by an indescribable anxiety; throbbing of heart against ribs audible; breathing short and interrupted; felt as if a world were on his chest; lips blue, swollen, chapped; distended capillaries of eyelids gave way; drops of blood spirted out. Senses in a like degree became en- feebled, could neither see, hear nor feel any more; a dark cloud before eyes, deeply reddened until bloody tears gushed out; head giddy; senses vanished; trembling, lays himself on the earth; physically and mentally impossible to him to drag him- self any further; half unconscious, lay a long time on the earth, until he had so far recovered to be able, with difficulty, to mount his mule again. Tsch. S*They feel an unaccountable weariness while ascending, in addition a painful shortness of breathing; slight headache, and even a rush of blood to the chest; loss of energy; stupidity; a peevish temper, and hypochondriacal despondency; obliged to take rest every ten steps, in vain endeavoring, by full inspirations and utmost enlargement of the chest, to fill the lungs with air; seems as if in a vacuum; feeling of anguish, increases with the failure of every effort to strive against this feebleness; the tor- ment only diminishes with perfect rest; in a higher degree, fainting fits occur; flow of blood to head and lungs, cause an indescribable feeling of illness, without fever, even with the feeling of internal cold, together with numbness of hands and feet; pulse from 108 to 120; constant weariness, and inclina- tion to sleep, are far from inducing refreshing sleep; can find rest nowhere; during the nocturnal hours, there is the greatest oppression of breathing; these hours are a period of a very martyrdom. Pg. S*Veta; weakly, nervous, fat, or plethoric persons are suffering more of it, and such with a disease of heart and lungs. Tsch. 540. *Veta with horses; begin to walk slowly, often stand still, trem- ble all over, fall down and may die. The Indians bleed them in four places; at the end of tail, in the mouth, and at both ears, and as a preservative, put garlic up the nostrils. Tsch. S*Cats are more subject to Veta; they die with frightful convul- sions, similar to violent chorea; mules, and asses are less sub- ject. Tsch. . *I am fully convinced of the beneficial action of the Ooca in the Veta, having very frequently proved it upon myself. Tsch. . *After a strong infusion, he could, during the whole day, climb the heights, and follow the swift-footed wild animals, without COCA. 107 experiencing any greater difficulty of breathing, than in simi- lar rapid movements on the coast.

The toxicological, as well as the therapeutic observations, are here united with the results of the provings on the healthy, as well as on the sick; the provings with Formyl acid, the Spiritus formicarum, the tinctures of the Formica rufa and of the subsericea; the lower and higher potencies. United, they are more useful for the practitioner. Even such who insist on keeping each separate, have now a better chance to compare them. Each symptom has been carefully marked at the head of the line. T. Toxicological observations. * Therapeutic or cured symptoms, or names of diseases. 7 Observations on the sick.

That of Merc. jod. flavus is a much more accurate and in every way superior proving; hence it is better characterized. The right side being predominantly affected by flavus and also by ruber, it may be remarked, that in the ruber the chest symptoms are nearly all on the left side. Where symptoms appear on both sides at the same time, they are with flavus in the upper part on the right, and lower part on the left side; it seems to be the reverse with ruber. Symptoms passing from side to side, flavus has them decidedly from right to left, 462, particularly under the ribs, 451; except in the head, when they go from left to right, 463, 464. We find in ruber it is the reverse; the head symptom go from right to left; under the ribs, from left to right. The times of the day and all other conditions are nearly the same in both. Comparing each of these with Mercurius and with Jodium, flavus has more similarity with the first, and ruber with the latter.' h NATRUM SULPHURICUM. NaO,SO + 111HO. SINCE its discovery by Glauber in 1658, (de natura salium,) it was called Sal mirabile, by himself, and afterwards Sal Glauberi. It has been used as a laxa- tive in the so-called inflammatory affections, or employed as a common purgative, (Comnp. Pereira, ed. by Carson.) The Chinese use it for the same purpose, ac- cording to Scherzer. (Austrian Expedition.) It is rarely given in smaller doses, largely diluted, as an aperient and diuretic. (American Dispensatory.) It was proved in still "smaller doses" by Doctor Schreter, in Lemberg, Galicia; the proving published in 1832, in Hartlaub's Annals, Vol. III., No. 4, and by the zealous and meritorious .enning in Bohemia by himself, and several women and girls; published in 1833, in the same Journal, Vol. IV., No. 4. In Grauvogl's works, Grundgesetze, 1858, Das Hommeopathische Aehnlichkeits gesetz, 1861, Diaetetik u. Prophylaxis, 1862, Lehrbuch der Homoceopathie, 1866, it is highly recommended as a Polychrest in the "hydrogenoid constitution," Sycosis, Luccemia, Thrombosis. Long before this, it had been used here in the 30th centesimal to prevent the de- velopment of some forms of consumption by C. IHering; was given in important cases by Jeanes; in abdominal disorders and chronic diarrhoea by Lippe; and in the 2c potency with a rapid result in some forms of "the sciatica," by Raue and C. Hering, according to the symptoms of Nenning. All are added as corroborations in the proper places of the following scheme. Sulphate of soda is contained in a great many springs, used and abused as medi- cines. It predominates in the warm springs of Karlsbad, (Sprudel,) of Bristol, (hot well,) and in the cold springs of the Isle of Wight, and of Ptillna, Saidschtitz, Marienbad, Bilin, and Franzensbad in Bohemia.

At a meeting held in Philadelphia, Dec. 1869, to the honor of our departed col- league, Dr. C. G. Helbig, the learned long-laboring prover of the Nux mosehata, it was proposed and approved of, to publish, as soon as possible, in our America Journal of Horn. Mat. Med., a complete collection of all that is known of this great polychrest. Dr. C. E. Helbig, the son of the deceased, courteously complied with our re- quest, and sent us the original copy used by the author himself, since its first pub- lication, thirty-six years ago. As could be expected, the author had added many notices from old books, as well as the later publications, and a number of new symptoms, and many cured cases. The quotations from the old and new books, given by Helbig, are the result of an indefatigable search, and a labor of more than seven years; it is the most com- plete history of the drug, and its use ; there is not a drug in our Materia Medica, as fully and comprehensively treated, and these are of great advantage, and very instructive in many respects. To avoid the repetition of the titles of books after each symptom, and enable the reader to look over the many similar observations, with less fatigue to the eyes, and consequently to the mind, the names only are given in the text, and as Helbig did in his original publication, the titles of the books used are given in a list at the beginning. This list has not been arranged alphabetically, as Helbig did, but according to the plan of the American Hom. Mat. Med., in a historical chronological order. This gives a history of the drug in a concise way, and unfolds at a glance the great work done by the author; of course, all that has been published sipce his time, has been added, and the mark f is placed before the titles of such books as the editor has had in his own hands. Homoeopathicians are in italics. An alphabetical index of the names of the authors enables every student to find the full title of the quoted book, if known to the editor. Several pathological notes added by Dr. Helbig, in his manuscript; comparative notes by Helbig and C. Hg., also, critical and historical notes, and some explan- ations to the poisonings and provings, are transferred to an appendix. Dr. Helbig preferred, in his publication, to give all extracts from Latin authors in the original language. Dr. hTalcolm Macfarlan undertook the very difficult task of translating these numerous passages, from their middle-age Latin into English. Dr. C. B. Knerr translated all the German observations, and the numerous newly added symptoms. All that could be obtained from the German, French, British or American literature has been added. Bonninghausen's reports have also been made use of, and his distinctions of higher value, are marked by I and 1. All such symp- toms as are supposed to be the principal characteristics are marked Qi". Several authors have given groups of H. M. symptoms corresponding to certain diseases. (Dr. Kurtz, symptoms of Delirium Tremens. Dr. P. P. Wells, symptoms of Typhoid Fever, etc.) These valuable hints have been added and are distin- guished by a | before each symptom. All symptoms marked in this way are proposed symptoms in the complaint men- tioned. * marks only cured symptoms. 293 NUX MOSCIIATA. A IJISTrOIIICAL LIST of THE WORKS USED.

SPHERE OF COGNITION. Reproduction. Consciousness. . I took a broken nutmeg and put it in my pocket, and in the course of six hours, I had eaten half a one. Soon after I felt a dizziness and an unaccountable derangemeut of intellect, transient loss of memory, but a perfect consciousness of all that Isaid or did. I became remarkably loquacious, and seemed to be neither in this world nor the other; felt happy and free from any pain; I was truly in an indescribable state.

My friends were greatly alarmed, and the doctor was sent for in great haste; bleeding was proposed, but as I thought I knew, at least, as much as any one, I was not willing to be bled. After keeping them laughing and crying, till about 11 o'clock at night, I retired to bed, without anything having been done for me; I awoke in the morning and was as well as usual, hav- ing never been sick a day in my life. Since this occurred, several cases have come to my knowledge, in which persons having eaten nutmegs, were affected the same way as I had been. Had I eaten a very little more, 1 have no doubt, it would have proved fatal, as I learn it has done in other cases. -Portland Advertiser. .

I have myself had accidental occasion of observing its soporifle and stupefying power; a person by mistake took two drachms NUX MOSCHATA. 308 or a little more of powdered nutmeg; he felt it warm in his stomach, without any uneasiness, but in about an hour after he had taken it, he was seized with a drowsiness, which gradually increased to a complete stupor and insensibility, and not long after he was found fallen from his chair, lying on the floor of his chamber, in the state mentioned; being laid abed, he fell asleep, but waking a little from time to time, he was quite delirious, and he thus continued, alternately sleeping and deliri- ous, for several hours. By degrees, however, both these symp- toms gradually diminished, so that in about six hours from the time of taking the nutmeg, he was pretty well recovered from both. Although he still complained of headache and some drowsiness, he slept naturally and quietly through the following night, and next day was quite in his ordinary health. Win. Cullen. Materia Medica. .

This experience; says River, reminds us to give the same class of remedies in similar cases. I have found it useful and beneficial many times. Also Corbezus and Hartmann, in Bonn., have experienced the same, and according to Ettmiiller, all other practitioners of his his time were aware of it. Hlbg. .

Sensations. . The symptoms dullness of the head, staggering, stupidity, thought- lessness, absence of mind, dreamy, confused, are the most con- stant symptoms of N. mrn. They are felt by nine-tenths of all the provers, after one-half to two hours, from a dose of 10 to 100 drops of the tincture. Animals (birds and others) are also affected. The principal alternate effect, seems to appear, fool- ishness and kind of craziness, in which every thing appears lu- dicrous. The remedy may have a curative effect in apoplexy, delirium tremens, weakness of old age, hydrocephalus, stupid- ity, and other pathological groups, which the symptoms satis- factorily show. The prover should make use of a fully satu- rated tincture. Many persons, and especially women with children, get symptoms from the nut alone. Hlbg. 1940.

By Thomas Venner, Doctor of Physick, in Bathe, London, 1650, p. 143, et seq. "Nutmeg and mace are of one and the same faculty: they are hot and dry in the second degree, somewhat of an astringent faculty; they strengthen the stomach, especially the mace; they comfort the braine and animal faculties, especially the nutmeg; they stay seminal fluxes, and are good for cold uterine effects, especially the nutmeg; they dis- cusse winde, and inhibit fluxes of the belly proceeding from a cold cause, or weaknesse of the retentive faculty. They are good for old, cold and phlegmatic bodies; but the much use of them, by reason of their dry temperature and astrictive faculty, is hurtful to cholerick and melancholick constitutions, and to them that have costive bellies. "Nutmegs with the mace cleaving to them, preserved in sugar as soon as they be taken from the tree, are of a very pleasant and delightsome taste, and of most .profitable use for comforting of the stomack and brain; to be eaten now and then, especially in the mornings fasting, and presently after meales; and, because they are of a lesse drying and binding faculty, they are very good for every state and constitution. 898 NUX MOSCHATA. Wherefore, I advise all those that have weak stomacks, and that live a studious kind of life, never to be without them, that they may take of them at their pleasure."-Communicated by DR. SAMUEL A. JONES. May 6, 1871. Mr. N.- , porter in the employment of Boericke & Tafel, had diarrhoea for several days, when he grated a whole nutmeg which he took in soup at half-past six in the morning. The diarrhoea was checked. At 9 A. M. there appeared nausea, great tiredness and sleepiness; has dull eyes, pale face; looks very sick. Took antidotes mentioned in Homeeopathic books. Could scarcely reach his home, on ac- count of terrible pains in both legs in the part from the knees (own to the ankles, confined to the shins. This pain increased so much during the afternoon that he could hardly walk through the room. He says it feels as though the "bone had been smashed to pieces." Next day, the pain was somewhat relieved, and he continued his work. The pain decreased gradually.-A. J. TAFEL. In a family of my acquaintance, the application to chest of a greased heavy brown paper, (goose grease), with nutmeg grated on it, has for generations been relied on as an efficient external treatment in attacks of croup in children after cold wind.

Haller said in another work, 1771, Phar- macopoea Helvetica, p. 12, "we ought to prove drugs on the healthy to find out how they acted on the well, before giving them to the sick." But Haller did not make the experiment--Hahnemann did it-and after his first proving with the rule in view: similia similibus curentur.-C. Hg. A. Haller (1. c., p. 1031) has made a collection of some of the in- numerable compounds containing the N. m. Among them may be mentioned Requies Nicolai, Morsuli ad ardorem ventriculi, Pillulhe contra abortum, Balsamum apoplecticum, odontalgicum, somniferus, epilepticum, Langii, &c.-Helbig. 2. 1833.-Doctor C. G. Helbig published under the title of "lleraklides," a monograph of the N. m. He collected from the oldest literature down to our time, all that had been said about it. Again and again NUX MOSCIATA. he proved this drug on himself, and persuaded others among his circle of friends to prove it, under his direction. We find the in- itials of twelve male and nine female provers in his collection. In Helbig's own copy, kindly sent to the author after his death, are the following initials. Those in large type denote the names of women: AL., ANT., c., DK., DL., DT., EN., KD., KN., KTZL., LCH., LK., LD., ML., MM., OR., SCHM., Sa., SLZ., SW., WU. Sev- eral of these provers had but one symptom, some only two or three, while Ld. had 9; Or., 10; Ml., 13; Al., 14; and among the men, Kd., 5; Dl., 6; Lch., 9; Sg., 14, and Sw., 48. Helbig's own initials we find 76 times, and there are 39 symptoms without any initials, also very likely his own. Helbig was an industrious, indefatigable man, very careful and conscientious, even scrupulously so. Seven years, all the time he could spare from his practice, were de- voted to this one end. Only two other physicians, Drs. Hencke and Heyder, proved it, who handed their day books to Helbig. The result was a most remarkable corroboration of all the older observations. In every form of disease where the N. m. had been given in olden times, it was now shown to be indicated by symp- toms obtained from the healthy. And in place of guess-work and being ruled by general vague pathological notions, making all cures mere accidental ones, we now have a clear and certain indication by the symptoms produced. In the place of glittering phrases, called scientific, but which change every few years, like the fashions in the millinery shops, we have everlasting characteristics. Hahne- mann declared the N. m., a polychrest of the highest importance. What others said about it, is given in other notes.-C. Hg. 3. 1834.-W. Gross, in " Stapf's Archives," xiv, 3, 17. The title of "Helbig's Heraklides," is found among the literary news in "Stapf's Archives," vol. xiv, 1, page 150. A praising notice of "iHelbig's Heraklides," by Moritz Miiller, particularly of the preface, in A. H. Z., v. 3, page 165, (Jan. 20th, 1834). Afterwards, in the same year, we find the first mentioning of Helbig's proving, by Wm. Gross, and a cure by it; see 1179. It is worth knowing that a year before this time, several polemic articles between Helbig and Gross, had caused offence and estrangement. Win. Gross, however, acknowledged not only the eminence of Helbig's work, but approved especially the addition of his 176 clinical observa- tions, and the importance he had given to the relation of our drugs to the causes of disease. Gross had given, according to the cause, N. m. in a case of menostasia. C. Hg. also followed Helbig's views, and made the first part of his Domestic Physician on "the causes," notwithstanding the sneering remarks of Helbig in the same preface against C. Hg.'s views, to build up a scientific Mat. 400 NUX MOSCHATA. Med.; but at their first meeting in 1845, he said: "Be welcome you cause-man."-C.

Compare with this Note 33.-C. Hg. 5. 1840.--Portland Advertiser, see Symptom 1. This notice was clipped from a paper and communicated to a friend of Homoeopathy. The paper may have been printed about the year 1840. It would be worth while to ascertain the time, and the name of the writer, as he spoke of other cases; all our friends should assist the cause, by saving and sending in such stray notices. The same when bites of snakes, stings of bees, etc., are reported. Many of the most im- portant observations of the venom of Apis, were obtained by Dr. Mears, by writing to persons who had been stung, and inquiring into the particulars. 0. 1840.-Molin, in Journal de la Doctrine Homoeopathique, June.

Gross, when he wrote his warning against prescribing remedies for names or a single prominent symptom, or calling a certain medicine specific for certain diseases. For instance, flooding which is only a single symptom, no disease; no one medicine is indicated by it, but a great many. All who go by such misrules, can only succeed accidentally; only by the other symptoms, by the characteristics, we can find the healing remedy. In every case of metrorrhagia, the other symp- toms decide, indicating either N. m., or Secale, or Ipec., or Crocus, or Platin, or Sabina, or another entirely diferent remedy. And, vice versa, if we take the group of characteristics given by Gross, in symptom 1137, and substitute for the metrorrhagia, the opposite " menostasia," or complaints during pregnancy, or during lacta- tion, or complaints of the climacteric period, or lameness, or apo- plexy, or gout, or rheumatism, or ailments from a strain or fall, etc., etc., in all such entirely different cases, and altogether different diseases, the N. mn. is just as well indicated, and will always help. The name is nothing, the characteristics are everything.-.-C. Hg. NUX MOSCHATA. 401 S. 1844.---Noak Trinks' Handbuch. The first part of this text book had been written and edited by Noak, but after leaving Leipzig for Lyons, the remaining papers came into the hands of Trinks, who in the place of making condensations or extracts, engaged a scribe to make a kind of copy of all provings at hand; his own work was principally to ornament them by adding notes. Although having never made a single proving, he had the impudence to criticise all others, evidently according to notions and influenced by nothing but personal motives. Trinks had all along brought his name before the public, and gained a reputation by the work of others; hence his name rarely appeared alone on a title page. Helbig stood for awhile in such a relation to him, but being too learned himself to occupy a subordinate position, they soon sep- arated. The Nux moschata proving had to suffer for this as soon as Trinks got a chance. His note to it is full of arrogance and ignorance, and is a fair sample of his blustering style. "The proving of Nux moschata, undertaken (!) by Helbig, although standing much in need of(!) perfection, makes cognoscible with some (!) degree of certainty the physiologico-therapeutical action of this remedy. Inasmuch as we may not and cannot (!) according to the results class this remedy amongst the polychrests (!) we must nevertheless give it a place amongst those remedies whose healing powers are of great value in certain pathological conditions, and which likewise (!) cannot be well spared by those rationally (!) skilled in the art of healing." The seven "signs of admiration," have been added to this admir- able sentence, which is followed by the list of names of diseases and diseased states, which Noak Trinks gives as an appendix to each medicine. In this note the great critic proved his superiority by forcing the printer to take an interrogation point out of his box thirty-eight times. Thirty-eight times he expressed by an ?, his doubts and his wisdom. The consequence was that all who swore by Noak Trinks, rarely if ever used the Nux mosch. Hempel deserves great praise for having left out all such trash, when he combined Noak Trinks with his translation of Jahr's text- book. It is to be hoped that if such bastard criticisms find their way into literature, they will be rejected with indignation. To cast suspicion on the work of others, to make sneering remarks at their doings, as often as there is a chance, on account of personal differ- ences, is the meanest of all meannesses. o. 1845.-Griesselich on Remedies for the Heart (Hygea, v. 20, p. 426), 26 40,2 NUX MOSCHATA. fills a page in his journal in order to explain what every one knows or ought to know. "The heart symptoms of Nux mnosch. are principally sympathetic, and the heart diseases cured by the same, have to be looked at as sympathetic, and if the older physi- cians called it a heart remedy, it was improper." All this rests on the very improper difference made by the old school between or- ganic diseases (changed form and substance), and functional dis- eases, without such alterations as would be visible after death; and it also upholds the old superstition, as if every case of sickness had a centre, a something somewhere from which all the symptoms came. Hence the popular question: What is the matter with me ? which is a very ignorant but excusable one. Of course, all such different stages and all such relations of symptoms are to be in- vestigated pathologically, because a diagnosis and above all a prog- nosis ought always to be made, at least, as well as we are able to make it, and as far as patients are willing to remunerate us foir the time required. All organic diseases, except such as we are born with, commence by the appearance of functional changes, thus by symptoms. If these indicate a remedy it ought to be given, and in many cases, the organic disease is prevented from developing, even the so- called "hereditary." In curable organic diseases, such remedies ought to be given as correspond to the characteristic symptoms of the sick; it is of no importance whatever, if similar organic lesion has ever been produced by the same drug or not. Incurable or- ganic diseases ought to be ameliorated as much as possible, and here again it matters not if the symptoms are only sympathetic. The whole doctrine of organic remedies commenced by Dioscorides, anno, 54, revived by Paracelsus, 1526, puffed up to a system by. Rademacher, in 1845, grafted on Homoeopathy, by Reil, in 1850, and developed into a caricature by Sharp, in 1867, (see the pamphlets "Sharp's Organopathy," London, Turner, price six- pence, and "Gottlieb Juntz," Phila., Boericke, 25 cents), is a mons- trosity good for a museum, but good for nothing else. All drugs proved produce their symptoms by acting on tissues and changing the functions of the same. (See Hausmann Ursachen der Krank- heiten, 1867. 1848.--Hygea, v. 23, p. 256. Griesselich on diseases of the Mind (a kind of study, useless for practitioners) says: "Nux mosch. was fre- quently given in former times. Now in spite of Helbig's work, which represents the 'old known' mixed with 'some new,' it is rarely given." Such are the flabby words with which, after 15 years, the fruit of seven years' labor is treated. And why? Because IHelbig, who was one of the strongest men among the Anti-Hahnemannians, the most learned certainly, and the best NUX MOSCHATA. prover among them, had for years not favored the llygea, the or- gan of the dissenters, with any more of his essays or criticisms, but sent his defence of the unity or oneness of curative principle to an other opposition journal. Griesselich makes the very unnecessary remark: "Real idiocy or imbecility is as little curable by nutmeg as by any other medi- cine." This was to be a hit against Hahnemann and at the same time against Trinks. Iahnemann had proposed nutmeg against "Blcedsinn," and Trinks pretended to have cured "Dummteit," by nutmeg, words that may be used for Idiocy. See Trinks' Hand- buch, 2, p. 364 and 365. Trinks also lad become displeased with the Hygea. Such miserabilities influenced the opinion of our practitioners, and in 1854 Dr. Th. Riickert could not report a single case in his great collection of " Olinical Experience." 10. [845.-Rummel, in A. H. Z., 29-34. A very remarkable observation, but not inserted in our collection. Madame L., a matron, 70 years of age, still active, suffers since a long time from gastralgia, caused by a changed condition of the mucous membranes of the stomach. The attacks had so far been merely palliated by homoeopathic re- medies. Only the most simple kinds of food could be taken, and these would often cause aggravation. Pressing, pinching, burning pain, belching, constant nausea, tongue coated on the left side, painful sensitiveness of the epigastrium, slight hardness of the same and backache. Many remedies had been given, and for the present attack neither Cocculus, Carb. an., Verat., Nux vorm. nor Ars., remedies that had formerly relieved, were of any use. By Nux rnosch.200, dissolved in a teaspoonful of water, a tea- spoonful every 6-12 hours, later every 24 hours, the pains were greatly relieved, during the following months, and came at much longer intervals. 11. 1848.--C.

"It diminishes the irritability of the whole body, especially of "the primae vise for a considerable time, (does it not increase the 404 404iRI~x 1OSCJIA 'A. "contractive power of the muscular fibre, especially of the prime "vise, and diminish its capability of relaxing?) In large doses it "causes an absolute insensibility of the nervous system, obtuse- " ness, immobility, loss of reason, for its direct action ; headache "and sleep for secondary action. It possesses heating properties. "May it not be useful in imbecility, combined with laxness and "irritability of the primae vise ? against the first as a similarly, "against the second as an antagonistically acting remedy? It is "said to have done good in paralysis of the gullet, probably as "a similarly acting remedy." Here we see how far the careful investigating founder of the new school had come within six years. The preface to the "Frag- menta," tells us of the progress he made during the next nine years. This preface, a most remarkable document, showing how gradually Hahnemann stepped forward, is not contained in Dud- geon's collection, nor the very interesting notes of Hahnemann to his translations, nor his preface to each medicine in his Materia Medica. The latter are now to be translated by Dr. Sircar, in the Calcutta Journal. If the shameful reprint in New York had not inter- fered with the sale, we certainly would have had a second edition, and very likely completed.

Iartlaub calls attention to a report of the well known Ger- man author Seume (see the year 1802) who was cured by an Ital- ian doctor, who prescribed nutmeg for an injury from a sprain, *2038; H. H. quotes the following: 1034, 1035, 1363, 1406, 1426, 1429, 1457, 1463, 1464, 1469, 1476, 1489, *1513; which all point to external injuries from mechanical causes to which may be added various other pains and the great lassitude, particularly 1584. 15. 1853.--Kurtz calls attention to the nutmeg in delirium tremens. It was considered instructive to mention it with each symptom he pointed at. Kurtz was followed, 1857, by Leadam who proposed in a similar manner the N. m. in diseases of women, and 1862, by P. P. Wells who did the same with regard to typhoid fevers. Adding to this what W. Gross has said, see note 7, it will more NUX MOSCUATA. 405 than counterbalance he hasty and superficial decision of Kafka and some ot the same sort. See note 19. 16. 1854.- Teste, (Materia Medica systematically arranged), after the "many long and painful gropings," he is boasting of in the intro- duction, makes the blunder of stating, on page 234, Hempel's trans- lation, "so far as I know (the nutmeg) has never been regularly proved upon the healthy organism," and on page 236, "we are indebted to Helbig for the only pathogenesis of nutmeg that I am acquainted with." The two I's must have had very little to do with each other. To place the Nux mosehata next to the Petroleum is another contradiction; both remedies have nothing more in common with each other than a few letters in their Latin names. Boenninghausen has given both a place in the aggravation from shaking the head, and we can only shake our head to such parallels. Helbig after the work of seven years declares modestly; "It seemed to me oftener to have a beneficial effect with children and women, as in the opposite states." Alphons Teste declares: "It is said, I know not ! with how much reason! that nutmeg is particularly adapted to affections of women and children. I! have given it successfully to old and middle aged men affected with gout." Teste imagines further that the symptoms correspond very clearly ! to various affec- tions which prevail in warm climates especially in such regions as pro- duce the nutmeg tree. It is very clear to every one who has been "in such regions," that Alphons Teste could never have been there himself, and even could not have read a single treatise on the dis- eases of the tropics to become at least somewhat acquainted with such cool and damp places as are found in parts where this tree grows habitually, and what might be contracted there by reposing when in a sweat. Teste concludes : "Upon the whole I ! do not believe that this drug will ever be of much use in the diseases incident to our climate," viz, in Paris! "Nux mosehata is one of the greatest polychrests (at least here in Paris) and second to none except to Sulphur."-S.

He coifesses the imperfect or transient improve- ment; but he does not know what is the cause. He says: as the "cause," the gradual enlargement of the uterus, could not well be removed, the effects of the remedies, consequently, remain imper- fect. He does not comprehend how imperfect his own thinking is, when he takes the swelled uterus to be the cause of the stomach symptoms; he forgets that in all normal cases of healthy women, the same enlargement is not followed by any such symptoms, thus the cause must be a morbid disposition, the very thing to be cured. And as we know has been cured in many cases but by the higher. See next note. During his whole work he is grasping to get such excuses for his "imperfect or transient" cures.-C.

NUX "MOSCILATA, 407 1867.-J. C. Morgan's cases in Hahnemann Monthly. First case. See *138, (326, 1214, 1738, 1887.) Second case. 1600. ,3. 1868.--R. J. McClatchey, in the Hahnemann Monthly, calls attention to the importance of the Nux mnoseh., disapproves of Teste's and Hughes' neglect, and gives his experience in dyspepsia, 725; rheumatism, 1517; menstrual difficulties, 1158, 1167; and, com- municates a very interesting case of poisoning, observed by Ross Roberts. A woman, set 30, in order to check a too profuse menstruation, grated two nutmegs into a half pint of boiling water, and began taking the "tea" in the morning about eight or nine o'clock. She sipped it after stirring, so that particles of the nutmeg might be taken with each sip. She continued this during the morning, being unusually lively, laughing and bright; but about 1 o'clock she began to feel giddy and light in her head, chilly and cold all over. She stopped taking the mixture at 2 o'clock; the symptoms gradually increasing in severity, with loss of memory; thought uncontrollable; objects would vanish for an instant; total loss of consciousness, seemingly to her of a half hour's duration, but really only momentary. Sickness at stomach, but no vomiting. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon, feeling as if the blood were rushing to the heart; from thence to the head, and then all over the body, again to the heart and repeat, (the extreme coldness, and the balance of the symptoms above, still present.) The alter- nate paleness and redness of the surface, indicating this varied and increased action of the circulation, was distinctly visible. About 5 o'clock, she complained of a sensation as if the heart were grasped, with sharp, cutting pain in the cardiac region. At 5- o'clock, I found her sitting up in bed, tossing from side to side. Surface cold and blue; deep blue semi-circles under the eyes. Hippocratic countenance and pulse almost ithperceptible; skin, cold over the whole body. She complained of feeling faint, with lightness, giddiness and emptiness of head. She answered promptly and correctly all questions put to her, but had great fear of death. Ten drops concentrated tincture of aelseminum, in 12 ounces of whiskey were given at a single dose, with a hot mustard pedaluvium. She speedily recovered. 2 4.

NOTES TO THE SYMPTOMS. :0: 29. To SYMPTOM 278. The word "cold" is used by all the authors of the 16th, 17th and 18th age, according to the theory of Galen, who divided all diseases according to the four winds into cold or hot, either wet or dry; and the four seasons and the four corresponding natural humors as causes of the diseases, &c., cold and wet: phlegm; cold and dry: black bile; hot and dry : yellow bile; hot and wet: blood. Against these imaginary humors the likewise imagined qualities of the drugs were applied as contraries; that is a cold wet complaint requires a drug warm and dry, etc. It is very remarkable that Helbig's provings of Nux mosch. have shown the great applicability, according to the law similia similibus, in all such diseases when according to the old imaginary qualities it had to be given according to their law: contraria eontrariis. We find it in a direct way from the symptoms produced; they had nothing but popular experience and stretched their theory to fit. 30.* To SYMPTOM 543.-Prunella alba. According to W. Sachse in Grafe's Encyclop.Woerterbuch. 1828, vol. II., p. 461, there was understood by Prunella, a chronic inflammation extending from the root of the tongue to the pr~ecordiae causing there a burning and on the tongue a white coating. On the tongue there were sometimes seen painful cracks. This inflammation often accom- panied malignant fevers and was especially fatal with the Hungarian fever. Sachse saw the disease but once. The burning in the scro- biculum seemed to be a sign of Aphthae, but very soon after the dark redness in the throat and the false membrane appeared.-Helbig. 31,b To SYMPTOM 771. I take the boundaries between swallow and oesophagus, with Hilde- brand and Weber, (Anat. 4, p. 255), to be there where the windpipe begins, below the larynx. As there are so many words in use for those parts, the prover ought to be informed of this.--Hlbg To SYMPTOM 772.-erzgespann. The Herzgespann, also called Verbrachen, Wehthun, Angewachsen- sein etc., befalls little children after taking cold, after violent crying, NUX MOSCHATA. 409 after tumbling or rolling about much, and consists in an expansion of the scrobicular region and the hypochondriac of both sides; the children have a constriction all over the chest; anxiety around the heart; difficult breathing; restlessness; hot fever and sleeplessness. It is often cured by mesmeric passes, (kneading, rubbing). As reme- dies are recommended: China, Arnica, Oleum cajeput, Allium, Nat. mur., Moschus, Asafoetid., Opium, Ipecacuanha, Alumen. The plant Leonurus Cardiaca has received its name from curing this malady.-C. G. Hlbg. Our author supposed that, pathologically, very different states had been collected under the same name, and that thus very different drugs should be required. He found that also grown people, particularly such as are not used to riding in carriages, get a similar affection (after riding) and call it Herzgespann; manifesting itself by a sore bruised feeling of the abdominal muscles, and a sensation of shortness and a tension between scrobiculum and navel. Cocculus and Pulsatilla acted favorably. 33.b To SYMPTOMS 781-799. Fischer's Somnambula (Reil VI., 3, 275), discovered her heart to be a light grey body, and the liver and spleen like a nutmeg, marbled, light greyish.-(Rumpelt, Animal Magnetism, 75). The modern pathological anatomists speak of nutmeg liver, (myristi- ficatio hepatitis), the parenchyma of the liver having the marbled and spotted appearance of a nutmeg, and distinguish a hyperaemic, fatty state, and proceeding from a stoppage in the biliary ducts. -Bock, Pathol. Anat., 487, (a, 226).-Hlbg. 34. To SYMPTOM 902.- Umbilical Hernia. Should its action in umbilical hernia be simply mechanical ?-Hlbg. 35. To SYMPTOM 1015. Clotar Mueller's negative experience. As long as mere saying "no" to a thing passes for wisdom, we will have, surely, superficial, hasty verdicts like this. They forget that every negative remark requires a much stronger proof than a positive one. If Cl. Mueller had fully described the cases, we would see that he prescribed and administered Nux mos. for a name, not accord- ing to symptoms; he took care about the disease, but did not care about the sick; and, of course, did not cure, because "diseases" can never be cured; the sick may, if we do our duty. Compare the many reports. Symptoms 970 to 1014, but particularly the characteristics given by Dr. J. B. Bell in his Therapeutics of Diarrhoea.-(Philadelphia, Tafel.) 410 NUx MOSCIIATA. 33.b To SYMPTOMS 1052 TO 1060. .Dysuria those authors called a difficult micturition, the urine passing with pain, particularly burning in the moutl of the urethra; strangury they called it if the urine passed only in drops, with a sensation of cold- ness in the urethra, the alternate opposite effect of burning.-Hlbg. 34. To SYMPTOM 1151. Ieimlich, is said of aches or painful sensations if they are, as it were hidden and without being violent, of a certain intensity as if lurking ready to burst out; we find it used in toothache and bellyache.-See Ilelleborus symptom No. 83. C. HG. 3'7. To SYMPTOM 1218. "Jading the child." Old honest Schroeder means by "reckless women," the lowest of all among the dregs of the people. lie would hardly have believed that such a horrible crime could ever become a fashionable thing of every day occurrence, in one nation after the other, always being follow- ed by the same gradual loss of national character and influence. C. Hg. To SYMPTOM 1604.-Beriberi. Endemic in the East Indies, called sheep disease, because those affected walk about like sheep. The first symptoms are depres- sion and trembling of the hands and feet, sometimes of the whole body. A kind of numbness of the limbs as if they had gone to sleep, dimin- ished sensation, they cannot distinguish things as well by the sense of touch; to this there is added formication; difficulty of motion, up to complete stiffness and paralysis; hoarseness and weak voice, so that it can scarcely be heard at a short distance, increasing to complete aphonia. Some authors state that spasms of the chest result, which may cause death; others that death is caused by hydrothorax, accompanied by swelling of the whole body, fullness of the abdomen, and prmcordial region, with dyspnoea and starting in sleep. The urine is highly colored, very hot, scanty and finally altogether suppressed. In some cases the symptoms appear suddenly, with great weakness, oppression, fear and dyspnoea, and the patient dies in from 6 to 36 hours. Some cases run a slow course. All patients have the bloated leucophlegmatic appearance which we see in dropsy. Repeated faint- ing spells, slight convulsive movements, confusion of ideas, sopor and general marasmus may end the patient's life. It is believed that catch- ing cold while overheated is a cause of the disease. Motion is con- sidered beneficial. The common people and "rational doctors" or self styled "regulars" are alike unsuccessful in treating this disease. NUX MOSCIATA. 411 If our northern Aconite in rapid cases should not be sufficient in the beginning, the Aconitumferox of the East Indies may be. The symp- toms described would with us indicate above all others our American Rhus tox. or radicans. But they have in the East some trees nearly related to the Rhoes of America, very similar in their effects as far as it is known. The Melanorrlea usitata Wall. on the Continent, and the Stagmaria verniciflua in the Indian Archipelago, our Homoeopathic colleagues should make provings of and try to eradicate this plague of their country. It may be, that Anacardium orientale, corresponding very much to the confusion of ideas, to the trembling of hands and feet, to the tremb- ling weakness, and to the sensibility to cold and draft is for many cases sufficient. In the last stages, the want of voice, the fainting and the sopor may indicate the Nux moschata, which may save life. If we had a real description of several cases, given by an observing Homoeopathician, we could prescribe for this endemic disease from here with a certainty not dreamed of by old school doctors. They have tried to give advice which was never realized by success. It would be very interesting to have a report from our Homoeopathic brethren in the East Indies of what has been done in this and other indigenous plagues, at our World Convention in 1876. 3''.b To SYMPTOM 2083. To this remark Trinks puts an ? in his Handbuch. Why? What sound reason could he have? ilelbig proving N. mos. a series of years had to give several of his many provers antidotes, on account of the very strong doses he had preferred in the proving. Helbig had also made provings with the Carum carvi, as we see from his preface, page xxiii. Trinks who never made provings but only had his name put to such as originated with others, or as in Jodium, to a translation from the French of an English original observer, did it with his usual impudence in order to keep up a kind of superiority in the eyes of such as could not see deeper.-C.

An equal quantity of resinous product to same dog. Experiment 6th. Two ounces of distilled spirit from the berries to a middlesized dog. He repeated these experiments upon young dogs, and was surprised to find they were not affected by any preparation of this plant, even when givefi in three or four times the quantity used in the above experiments. The same circumstance was observed with respect to dogs of twelve or fourteen years of age. Jacob Kummer. Tincture from root, leaves and flowers; took 15 drops, then 25, then 35, then 50 then 60. Geist's symptoms were obtained from the tincture of the root. Bauer's symptoms came from triturating the root for a tincture.

The root is preferred to the powdered leaves as an emetic, because it is more powerful and a less dose will answer the purpose. (Schultz.) . A vinous tincture of the dried root frequently operates very kindly as an emetic; hardly altering the taste of the wine. Farriers give a decoction of the roots to drench cattle and apply them in the form of poultice for discussing tumors. (Butler.) Cutler. . Phytolacca approaches nearer to Ipecacuanha than any American vegetable I have hitherto examined; and when properly prepared, it operates in the same doses and with the same certainty as the South-American emetic.

Horn. . *A lady who had suffered from dysmenorrhoea and costiveness from the time menstruation commenced for several years past had been subject to attacks of colic with the following symptoms: the spells were preceded by a sense of weakness, then oppression, with the inclination to take a deep breath, which was soon followed by a sore spot, in the beginning not larger than a dollar, in the right hypochondrium, extremely sensitive to the touch. The sore spot enlarged and became very painful, with the sensation of constric- tion or choking in the part as if from flatus which gave rise to violent efforts to eructate in order to get rid of the offending load. The effort frequently ended in vomiting which however gave no relief. Under old school treatment she had taken castor oil, but opening the bowels did no good. The suffering was slightly mitigated by sitting up in bed and leaning forwards. She could lie in no position except on the stomach, and when the pain got easier she would fall asleep in that position. The attack was sometimes attended with painful inclination to pass urine, which was the color of coffee, and stained her clothes yellow; disagree- able taste in the mouth, as soon as the pain moved a little down- wards (it always went downwards when getting better) from the place first affected, she was relieved. The attack generally commenced about an hour and a half after dinner, sometimes about an hour and a half after supper, never at any other time. Phytolacca 31, cent. dil. night and morning for a week after an attack, prevented its return and removed the con- stipation and dysmenorrhoea entirely. Wmson. 645.

A negro in the State of New York had a cancerous sore in his upper lip and nose which was considered as incurable. He one, day covered it with a poke leaf merely to keep off the flies. On finding himself easier in consequence of this new application, he continued it for some time, which produced a sensible amend- ment of the ulcer and finally a cure; but during the winter when the leaves could not be procured, he applied the bruised root. Wistar. . *A woman aged forty; a year ago, after the birth of her seventh child had a neglected abscess resulting in what was called an "open cancer."

Hahnemnann, in his first provings, published in the Arzneirnittellehre, 4th vol., 1818, page 190, used the Sarsaparilla-root of the shops; the trade by sea had been opened again by the English since 1813, and fresh supplies had arrived years before from South America. He no doubt preferred making the tincture for his provings of the most expensive kind, that is, according to his Apothekerlexicon, 1799, p. 2, p. 128, from the so-called Sarsaparilla rotunda, rolled up like ropes. Publishing his last edition of the chronic diseases while residing in Paris, and placing the Sarsap. among his antipsorics, he stated (Chronische Krankh., vol. 5, 1839, p. 143) the so-called "brown" sort coming from Hayti (St. Domingo) as preferable, and advised the use of the trituration from the bark of the root, potentized like all antipsorics. Kosteletzky Med. Pharmac. flora, vol. 1, p. 221, says: the best kind came from the Essequebo, (Demerara,) others say, from the Rio Negro, over Gara and Angostura. According to British observers, none is genuine except it causes, after chewing a piece, an intense nausea behind the soft palate in the upper part of the pharynx. We ought to prove the Smilax Sarsaparilla of the Southern States, col- lected by trustworthy botanists. All the different species sold in the shops belong to the natural family of the Smilaces, and standing between the Liliacee (Cepa. Scilla. Aloes) and the small family of Dioscorewe, (Dioscorea villosa. Tamus communis,) which is placed at the head of the first main division of the monocotyledones. DIAG1t O'C 1EMARKS. 525 The Smilace are divided into three groups: Paride (Trillium, Paris) Asparagew (Asparagus' Majanthemum) and Smilacee proper. Paris quadrifolia, very much augmented by curative symptoms, is ready for publication in our Materia Medica. DIAGNOSTIC REMARKS Compare Hale's Net Remedies, page 310. DISCOREA VILLOSA. Rheumatic symptoms, worse at night and early in the morning. SARSAP. Many symptoms at night, but mostly nervous or gastric; very few rheumatic; the same in the morning hours.

Pains at the least motion, but none relieved by contin uous motion. Diosc. v. Diarrhoea early in the morning. SARSAP. Loose stool in the evening; oftener indicated by costive ness, accompanied by frequent urination. Diosc. v. All pains worse while sitting still, relieved by moti6. SARSAP. Pains worse only when sitting erect; very few while sitting; generally worse from motion and all bodily exertion. The very valuable group of symptoms given by Dr. Hale, New Remedies, page 1084, shows also some family similarity with Sarsap. while it stands in its completeness as a unicum. We give it, and put in brackets the numbers from our list of Sarsap. symptoms, where some similarity may be found. Pregnant women, [345, *346, &c., *444, *445, &c., 543, *544, have also been corroborated during pregnancy,] before and during stool [435-8,] severe pains in sacral region, [435, 445,] writhing, drawing, radiating upward and downward until fingers, hands, feet and toes are involved and cramped from the darting drawing pains (none) with anxiety, [665,] faintness [462, *463] and palpitation of the heart [665.] 8PONIA.

Teste gives in his work a poor and lame extract; some differences may have had their origin from the repeated re-translations; some symptoms seem to have been observations in practice, and have been added. BSnninghausen's works have been made use of as far as they assist us to pointing at the characteristics. We take it for granted that his higher degrees are always corroborations from practice. Hahnemann proved Spongia in order to find out when it could be given in goitre. By this proving he discovered its correspuondence to croup. 526 SPONGIA. E2' In the meantime, Iodine was discovered as a new chemical element in sea-weed. Ffe, of Edinborough, supposing that it must likewise be contained in the sea-sponge, discovered it therein. Coindet, from Geneva, supposing it to be the active principle in the old Sponge powders, commenced giving Iodine in goitre. Dr. A. Koch made the similar conclusion with regard to croup, and introduced Iodine as a croup-medicine. Later, after the discovery of Bromine as a constituent of Spongia, this was likewise given. The experience of Alleopathicians have shown that some cases of goitre are cured by Iodine, some by Bromine, some by other drugs, and again, others by nothing but Spongia tosta. The Homeopathicians found the same with regard to croup. Our collection will enable every careful student to distinguish in cases where either the one or the other is indicated. The symptoms observed by Dr. B. Fincke, are the most deciding of all. Spongia tosta may now be given with much certainty, not only in croup, as here- tofore, but likewise in whooping-cough, measles, and catarrhal diseases. Particu- larly also, in tuberculosis, where we cannot succeed without it. Dr. A. Haynel and P. P. WVels have led our school to make use of Spongfa in the most desperate cases of organic diseases of the heart. We find it also of im- portance in diseases of the sexual organs, glandular or otherwise, and above all in typhoid fevers. The symptoms of Spongia, produced or cured by it, give evidence that according to the Pathology, of our day, we never can limit and characterize our drugs. Haus- mann's views, however, if sufficiently worked out will enable us to draw the limits with great precision and certainty. Our "bulky" Materia Medica will then be very much shortened and many of our polychrests reduced to a dozen of charao- teristics. ABBREVIATIONS. IH. Fr. H. A. F. H. lIbg. S. G. Htm. Lgh. Lhm. St. G.

Croup. . *The most remarkable curative use Homoeopathy has made of Spongia, is in the fearful, acute disease, called membranaceous croup. It is based on several symptoms, but particularly (728), difficult breathing as if a plug was in the throat and the breath could not be drawn through the narrowed larynx. The local in- flammation had first to be lessened by a dose of Aconite. To give Hepar besides, will rarely be found necessary. S. Hahne- mann, Mat. Med. pura, 6, p. 199.

While the numbers of our Materia Medica, containing Stramonium, were printed, and while the observation of a case of poisoning by Ben- jamin Rush, (already received by Hahnemann in his Materia Medica), was again brought into use-Compare, 1465, 1482, 2013, 2102---Dr. James Rush, a descendent of B. Rush, died in this city. While the last sheets were put in type Dr. Chas. D. Meigs died; who likewise added a valuable observation to our collection. Compare, 128, 297, 310, 379, 865, 951, 1742, 1955, 2096, 2107, 2164. Both were honest men, learned physicians, good observers, and yet both rejected the very same school, which for the first time, was able to make the right use of such observations; the greatest use of all, that of healing the sick. James Rush disinherited a nephew, because he allowed Homoeopathy to cure him, which Allceopathy had not been able to accomplish.- After our collection was prepared for the press, there appeared a very interesting account of a poisoning by Stramonium, in the St. George's Hospital Reports, Vol. III, 1868, p. 159, by C. Paget Blake. Our attention was called to it by an extract in the Hom. Review, for April, 1869, p. 247:-" Such eases serve to confirm, correct, and add." Being too late to be brought into our comparative collection we give STRAMONIUM. it as an appendix, preferring however, an extract from the original com- munication in the Hospital Reports. A most valuable series of provings, mostly made with potencies, by one of our best observers, Dr. Henry Robinson, of London, was pub- lished in the British Journal. Among it was one of Stramonium which had to be inserted with the others, in spite of some so called "critics." High-potency provings being very much against the "taste," as it has been styled, of some of our school. Each one may have the sacred right of an opinion of his own, and while one prefers poisonings, another may prefer provings, even those of the potencies; but science does not regard tastes nor opinions in deciding anything. The question is: What is the value of an observation according to the inductive method? We haveto weigh accumulatiye probabilities. This appendix may be made more useful to some readers by giving a list of parallels and confirmations to the symptoms of each of them. Both the poisoning-case and the proving with potencies, may now be judged of and ascertained how much they "confirm, correct, and add." CASE OF POISONING BY STRAMONIUM. BY C. PAGET BLAKE. (St. George's Hospital Reports, Vol. III, 1868, p. 159.) -An old gentleman about seventy years of age, a fine, tall, stout, well. built man. -Subject to asthma, for the relief of which he had come to Torquay. -As his asthma was getting much worse, he swallowed in the night, at 1 o'clock, about 12 drachms of tincture of Stramonium. -He was found lying on the floor (1927) in his night-shirt; his feet at the door, as if he had been pushing against it, and his head right under the bed; cold (1927), and apparently dying. -In an alarming state of collapse; the features were sunken (never before observed, still not in the least to be doubted); the skin icy cold and covered with clammy sweat (1985, 1986. Compare, 1209. The opposite heat and sweat one of the greatest characteristics); the hands and feet livid (690, not often observed but agrees completely); (the hands much bruised); no pulse to be felt at the wrist (2050 to 055); the heart's action extremely feeble (1405, 1406), and inter- mitting (2018-2022); the pupils so contracted as scarcely to be dis- cernible-smaller than ever seen in a cat's eye (690, often observed after vinegar had been taken, or lemonade). -Endeavoring to pour a little brandy down the throat, there was not the slightest attempt or power of swallowing (1045-1058). -He remained perfectly unconscious (25-35), and could not be roused; STRAMONIUM. 671 paid no heed to the loudest shouting (58-60); did not feel the smart- est pinching (2080, 1630); the arms and legs, when lifted, fell placid and lifeless (1608). -There was terrible dyspnoea (1370-1377); indeed the function of respiration was rather a succession of deep gasps and sobs (1354); and the little vitality still left in him seemed to become rapidly spent by the tremendous effort and increasing struggle to breathe. -The first evidence of returning power was that of a slight gurgling in the throat, induced by pouring a teaspoonful of brandy into his mouth and pulling the head gently back to help it down the throat. This gurgling continued for about two minutes, when he seemed to make a slight attempt to swallow; but the presence of the brandy instantly produced a violent spasm, and it was again seen running from the mouth (1073. Dewitt). -After two hours of really hard work, friction applied to the arms and Slegs, over the region of the heart, hot fomentations to the whole of the abdomen, sinapism to the feet, hands, and nape of the neck- particularly the vigorous frictions-warmth could be noticed, and there were signs of returning animation. The pulse was perceptible at the wrist, the heart's action became firmer, the breathing less gasping, and the surface warmer. -To get him to drink the smallest silis of brandy and water, required immense exertion. Every attempt at deglutition brought on a spasm; evidently from violent constrictions of the pharynx. (1069. Preston). -As the powers of life gradually returned, there was a constant sort of gulping, as if striving to swallow, even when no fluid was being given; it appeared to be the cause of much distress to him, though he was still unconscious. -A good dose of Sulphate of Zinc, speedily caused the ejection of the whole contents of the stomach. After this he gradually rallied, opened his eyes and stared wildly about him, though evidently unable to see any thing; the pupils still intensely contracted, and on waving the hand before them he never winked nor took the least notice. (667). -There was still the same terrible spasm of the throat, like that in hydrophobia, ateach attempt to swallow; the fluids passed eventually, after much struggling; there was no other kind of convulsive move- ment in any other part of the body. (Comp. above). -From the effort to vomit, a large quantity of peculiarly offensive urine (1284, 1285) passed involuntarily (1286-1292). -About noon the pupils began to expand and vision gradually returned. -He looked inquiringly around the room and with some degree of ter- ror (28, 430, 431, 1650) apparently wondering at the strange scene dawning upon him (135). -He continued to gulp, as if vainly striving to get rid of some sub- stance in the throat (compare hiccough, 1156-58). --He made ineffectual attempts to speak, not even a syllable could he articulate (980, Franz. 984, Preston. 986, Berridge, etc. Compare STRAMONIUM. 972-992); the mouth was dry and parched (993-1006); the secretion of saliva being evidently entirely suspended (1000). -Castor oil brought away a highly offensive evacuation (1233, 1234). -Shortly after the evacuation of the bowels, smart reaction set in. The face became flushed (842, etc., 862, &c.), the head congested (515, 516, 517, &c.). -He muttered unintelligible sounds (984, 986, 1826, 261, 222), looked wildly around (192, 795, 334, 1650, 25, 1839, 1872-3-4), and could not be made to do what he was told, though he apparently understood all that was going on (Compare 162). -He seemingly kept wanting to clutch at some person or persons whom he imagined were before him (227, 229, 230, 57=339, 190), but he could not use his arms, though he tried to do so (1611, 1612, &c.). ---There were no convulsions, but the arms and legs were now quite rigid (1730-1739); and when they were moved remained in any posi- tion in which they were placed (1740, 1741). --The room he had been in during the night presented a strangely disordered appearance. Every article of furniture was where it ought not to have been; some turned topsy-turvey, others piled on top of each other; a heavy chest of drawers dragged across the room and there capsized; the wash-stand nearly demolished; the different chamber-utensils upset, one completely smashed; candle and candle- stick knocked to pieces; everything on the toilet-table in wildest con- fusion; the looking-glass thrown down on its face; the whole apart ment appearing as if a desperate struggle had taken place. NOTE.--lHow probable this supposition is, we find by comparing the symptoms 117, 122, 3, 132, 141-148, 151-154, 190, 202, 216, 7, 223- 5, particularly 227, 229, 230, 231, also, 946, 996, 2110. --While improving, he wandered all day in his mind, and could not ar- ticulate (972-992, particularly 980 and 984, *1421, *1826). He could not speak at all intelligibly until the end of the next day, even then continually misplacing words (*202, *528); calling his head, foot; his arm his leg, and misnaming the things he required. He was lu- dicrously unconscious of his continual misnomers, and it was several days before he could converse without calling something by a wrong name. He was utterly unaware of his continual errors. NOTE.--A lady, after taking an ordinary small dose of Opium, "called things by their wrong names," but was conscious of thus misplacingA words. Paget Blake. The woman cured by Gueyrard, *528, suffering from a sunstroke, weeped about her weakness. The other case or cases, cured by Hir- zel, *202, were cases of mania-a-potu. -All day he simply answered when spoken to, never volunteering any remarks, and constantly muttering a strange jargon of sentences. Compare 7, Swaine. 259, Pfennig and H. C. Preston. Also, 17, 222, 260, 327, 1647. -Evening of the 3d d, he spoke thickly, but with tolerable distinctness; like a person with quinsy (1344-6); the throat and tongue were pain- STRAMONIUM. 678 fully dry, the glands of the mouth not yet fulfilling their natural function (993 to 1006). -Fourth day complained of much tingling of the lips (new symptom), and itching of the skin (904. 2095 to 2098, 2103, 2108). -Could not remember anything until three days afterwards, when he began to wonder what was going on and what had happened in the long interval which he felt had elapsed since he went to bed (47, 48, 49, 50, 54, 61). -Though he appeared to be conscious on the 2d day, he always affirmed, and constantly repeated the remark, that he had no recollection what- ever of anything that took place from the time of his taking the dose at 1 A. M., till he noticed his Doctor standing by his bedside on the evening of the 3d day. Whatever had been going on was un- known to him, even though he had been answering questions and do- ing whatever he was desired to do. NOTE.-Being subject to asthma made our "fine, tall gentleman" a still better prover of Stramon., exactly as it was the case with Hahn- emann, when making his first proving of the bark; such symptoms of intermittent appeared as he had been subject to years before, in Transylvania. For the same reason the observations of Dr. E. W. Berridge, with a girl suffering chorea are more valuable, as every one can find out by comparing them with the others. See page 194. OBSERVATION ON STRAMONIUM BY DR. HENRY ROBINSON. The following symptoms appeared in a young female, after taking some globules of Stram. 2", in 8 oz. water, a dessert spoonful every third morning. After two doses: 108. She feels dull (508, 492. 1, 2, etc.), stupid in the head (510, 35 to 42, 103 to 111), almost insensible (3 to 34), and indifferent to everything around her (384, 385). 387. Feels as if nothing could give her any enjoyment, 390, etc. 650. Cloudiness of vision (647 to 657), as though she had a gauze be- fore her eyes (647, 649, 491, 501, 1871). 794. Redness (716 to 726), and swelling (749 to 755), about the right eye (725, 732). 794. Tingling feeling, as if pins and needles were in her forehead. Similar to part of 2098, 2108, 2103. STRAMONIUM. 877. She felt as if the left side (830, 834, 884, 1324) of her face was swollen (884, 1324), which she found was not the case on look- ing into the glass; afterwards redness and flushing of left cheek (848 to 865, etc.). 934. Excessively bitter taste, (931 to 933). 971. Her tongue feels quite blistered. (New, but corresponding to seve- ral other tongue symptoms, and corroborated by Hahnemann's symptom, 1023. Compare 2120). 1002. Dryness of the mouth (993, 1004, 994-1006) and palate (949, 1004, 1027). 1037. A feeling as of boiling water rising in the throat. (New, some- what corresponding, 1034-6.) , 1092. Loss of appetite (1089, 1090, 605, 1031, 1574), with oppression at pit of stomach (1160, 1166, 1167, 1168). 1129. Nausea (1121-1128), with inability to bring up anything (1130- 1136). 1192. Colicky pain (1184-1194), and umbling in the bowels (1219- 1225). 1189. 1193. Violent colic (1184-1194), coming on suddenly (new; very likely characteristic. Compare 1951), in the evening (Comp. 1884), with sensation of fainting (Compare 1572-1575), and cold shivers (1580, 1900, etc.). 1371. Oppressed respiration (1361 and 2, 1370, 1372, &c.), with feel- ing of tightness across the chest (Compare 1380-1393). 1440. Aching, drawing pain (Compare 1423, 1424, 1425, 1436, 1496) in right arm, above the elbow. 1832. Strange dreams of a frightful kind. Compare 420 to 431. 1904. General chilliness (1903, 1906, etc.) and trembling (1618 to 1629); she feels as if cold water was being poured down her back (1903). 1933. She is hot, then cold (1934, 1952) and shivering; her hands are constantly cold (1488). As we may suppose that the woman-prover did not know what she was taking and certainly had not made a study of the symptoms of Stramonium, and as such corroborations throughout cannot be accidental, we are permitted to use them in connection with the others, as highly probable. Some of them are confirmed by cures, and some are evi- dently characteristics. In distinguishing Stramonium from the other Solanese this proving will assist us more than the poisoning-case given before. THERIDION CURASSAVICUM. A small spider of the West Indies, well known to the people as very poisonous. It is found chiefly on the island Curaao, and is often mentioned, but never com- pletely described. It is very similar, in many respects, to the well-known Aranea tridecimguttata, Rossi and Fabricias, frequently found in southern Europe, and placed by Walkenaer among his new genus of spiders: Theridium. In 1882, when the "proving" was published, it received pro tern. the above name. In Van HIasselt's Toxicology, 1855, he states that he had this same "orange-spider of Cura- cao" in his collection, and he supposed it should be placed in the other, the next genus: Latrodectus, separated by Walkenaer from his Theridiunim; a genus to which the same author had also placed the Aranea tridecimguttata. But Cuvier and Lat- reille did not approve of it. See Cloquet Faune des Medicines, vol. ii., p. 61, foot note. And in the latest work: Histoire Naturelle des Aragnees, par Eugene Simon, 1864, it is said, page 178, le genre latrodecte, etabli par Walkenaer, parait insepar- able des theridions, quoique cet auteur l'en ait £loigne. We, therefore, keep the name as a sufficient identification until Van Hasselt finds an arachnologist willing to settle the matter by a full scientific description. It may be found also in South America, at least the Arrowackians-the principal tribe occupying the whole coast from the Oronoko to the Amasona-describe it and call it: Barra garru. Van Hasselt, in his work, gives the following names of authors, without quoting their works, as mentioning the same spider, and the effects of- its poison: Ver- meullen, Hellema, Ferguson, and others. Evertse says that they are not only found on orange trees, but also on Caesalpinia Coriaria Willd.; in the Piendas, and the cultivated mais. Hille, in a special report, observed tetanus after the bite of the orange-spider. Van Hasselt, translated by Henkel, v. ii., p. 60. Ozanam Etudes sur le venin des Arachnides, Paris, 1856, (A. H. Z. xlv., p. 55, 63,) contains, according to the extracts, nothing new. HISTORY. 1832. Proved by C. Hg. on himself and others. 1834. Symptoms printed in the Archives of Stapf, vol. xiv., page 157. 1836. In Homrn. Heilversuche au kranken Hausthieren, second part, Cattle, page 44, the cure of a cow. 1838. Several cures by the Rev. Brauns, in Volksblitter, vol. iii. 1843. In Hom. Heilversuche, third part, pages 149, 154, 157, cures of sheep. The most remarkable and important communications, corroborating all the charac. teristic symptoms, have been made by Dr. Neidhard, in Philadelphia. Dr. Baruch, in New York, considers it indispensable, in cases of scrofula, con- firming the supposition in the Archiv., 1834, that Theridion will often be found useful after Calcarea and Lycopodium have improved the case, but not finished the cure. We give an extract of a late letter of Dr. Baruch at the end. All the symptoms without a name, produced or cured, have been observed by C. Hg. 675 676 THERIDION CURASSAVICUM. .

Extract from a Letter of Dr. Baruch to . Hering. In cases of scrofulosis, where the best-chosen medicines do nothing, I always interpolate a dose of Theridion, which must act for eight days, and I have seen the most surprising results from it, particularly in caries and necrosis. For Phthisis florida Theridion is indispensa- ble, and effects an entire cure if given in the beginning of the disease. In cases of rhachitis, caries, necrosis, I depend chiefly on Theridion, which, although it does not seem to aflect the external scrofulous symptoms, apparently goes to the root of the evil, and effeictually do- &troys the cause of the disease. INDEX. All the quotations of cures in the foregoing monographies are here alpha- betically arranged. The technical terms of different ages as they had been used according to the fashions of the day remain unaltered. Such of the prominent symptoms as are apparently corroborated by cures have been added, in the hope of making this index more useful, since nothing depends on the names, but all on the symptoms. In sub-ordinate remarks the alphabetical order has been sometimes intentionally dropped. Abdomen, fullness,..... Carb. s... 56 - sunken in, .......
