CLINICAL CASE

A man came limping into my office, saying, “Doctor, can you do anything for my limb? It distresses me so when I sit down that I cannot rest in that position at all” This was a case of rheumatism of two years duration. I asked him, “What is the feeling in your limb that prevents your resting in that position more than any other?”.

Other valuable additions to homoeopathic literature have been those translations of the works of Boenninghausen and other writers, most notably German, which have been made available through the tireless application of this worthy follower of Hahnemann.

THE EFFECTS OF GLONOINE FROM ABSORPTION THROUGH THE OLFACTORY CHANNELS

This remedy is chiefly circulatory in its action. Marked circulatory congestion. The pulsations in the head and chest jar the whole body.

GUIDING SYMPTOMS OF SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REMEDIES IN CHOLERA

The symptomatic difference of these remedies mentioned above are not always clearly understood ad sometimes it becomes difficult, nay impossible, to do so. It is therefore or paramount importance on my part to lay down some general rules for the application of these remedies.

COLOCYNTHIS

At this meeting I would call your attention to a drug which should focus attention favorably, as it has been prescribed often in the past for fulminant disease, and oftentimes with tellingly curative effects. In our country, abdominal ills frequently have yielded, while in Great Britain there seems to be a tendency to include severe sciaticas as well. The following symptoms have been collected gradually and recorded in a large book which I keep just for that purpose.

HIGH LIGHTS OF ARGENTUM NITRICUM

The symptoms most necessary to know, and essential, are those produced directly on EVERY normally healthy human being, and not those individual symptoms produced by the drugs arousing the latent predispositions peculiar to the individual himself, no matter how prominent or important such symptoms may appear.
