                  PREFACE,

 Inquiry into the modus  operandi of a homeopathic drug.

 We have no means of knowing the inmost functions of the
 organism; sometimes we may feel at  liberty to draw spe-
 culative conclusions from results  relative  to  the nature
 of  the  causes  in  which they have  originated,  but we
 cannot sustain our explanations by illustrating them by the
 phenomena of material nature ; for this reason,  that the
 functions of the living organism have nothing in  common
 with the changes of matter, but on the contrary, take  place
 in an entirely different manner.
   Possessed by these convictions,  it is quite natural that I
 should never have attempted to explain how diseases can
 be  cured by  medicines,  the  pathogenetic  symptoms  of
 which are similar to those of the disease.  I have furnished
 a conjecture'relative to that matter, without wishing it  to
 be considered an explanation.   Such an explanation is not
 necessary.   It  simply  behoves   us  to apply the   law
 " like cures  like" correctly  and successfully, and not  to
 boast with  abstract explanations, in  spite  of which the
 patient  may remain uncured.  Indulging foolish hypothe-
 ses is all that the so-called physicians of the Old School
have accomplished up to this moment.  These  physicians
would not have hesitated to reject the doctrines of homoeo-
pathy, which however teach the only true method of  cure,
 simply  because my explanation of the modus operandi  of
homoeopathic agents was  not  satisfactory.
  If I again attempt to  throw  some light on the  inmost
                         1

PREFACE.
action of homoeopathic drugs, it  is not  because I expect
to satisfy my opponents, but in order to  furnish more pro.
bable explanatory  suggestions to the  real  adherents  and
able advocates of  the homoeopathic system, and to satisfy
the irresistible, innocent and  praiseworthy impulse of the
human mind to account for the mode  in  which we accom-
plish changes from evil to good.
   It is undeniable, that our vital  powers, when unassisted
by remedial agents, are unable to cure diseases, even those
of short  duration—taking it  for granted  that those powers
are not overcome by the disease, without expending by a
so-called crisis a portion, and frequently  even a considera-
ble portion, of both the fluids and solids of our organism.
I have shown this  elsewhere.  We shall,  perhaps,  never
be able to explain this  mode of action of the vital powers >
but we know with certainty that they do not accomplish a
victory ov«r disease in a direct manner, or without making
great  sacrifices.   The vital powers are  not even capable
of healing the chronic, miasmatic diseases,  and of substi-
tuting health in their stead, without inflicting a loss upon
the organism.  But  it is  certain,  that  although  the vital
forces may achieve a victory  over  the  acute  as well as
miasmatic diseases without inflicting such losses upon the
organism, provided they are assisted and directed in  their
action by a properly  selected homoeopathic agent,  it  is
nevertheless those forces that conquer, in  the  same sense
as the native army  is said  to have  beaten  the enemy,
although it may have been  assisted  by auxiliary troops.
Those vital forces, unless assisted by a homoeopathic drug,
cannot control a  natural  disease without inflicting great
sacrifices  upon the organism ;  for, naturally, they  have
only power to maintain the unimpeded evolution of  th«
functions of the animal economy, as long as those functions
 are not disturbed  by the improper interference of an exter-
 nal agent.
   The unassisted vital forces are no match for such hostile.

disturbing  agents;  they are  even  weaker  than those
agents—oppose them with many symptoms of suffering,
and cannot overpower them, be they either acute or chro-
nic, without inflicting great losses on the organism.  This
result can only be avoided by assisting the vital forces by
a proper remedial  agent.  God has  appointed the true
physician to this office.
  The homoeopathic agent is alone able to secure to the
vital  forces  that  superior power which  is necessary to
conquer the enemy.
  I repeat, that the vital forces, the natural destination of
which is the regulation of the undisturbed functions of the
organism, oppose but a feeble resistance to the approach-
ing enemy,  which waxes stronger  in proportion  as  this
enemy becomes  more  powerful, but which,  even in the
most  favorable circumstances, is scarcely equal,  and in
weak patients, not even equal to the power  of the assail-
ing enemy : the vital forces are neither able, nor naturally
destined  to  overpower  that enemy, nor can they oppose
him without being  injured.
  By magnifying ever so little  the enemy by whom the
vital forces are assailed—which  we accomplish by invad-
ing the vital  forces  by an  artificially morbid  influence
closely resembling  the disease,  we induce those forces, as
from  an instinct of  self-preservation, gradually  to unfold
all  their energies  until they become powerful enough to
control  the  disease ; the vital forces are then restored to
the regulation of the animal functions,  whereas, the arti-
ficial  medicinal disease disappears of itself, so soon as we
discontinue the use of those  agents by which it  had been
established in the organism.
  The principle  by which  the body is animated, is infi-
nitely great and lasting, provided we maintain  its integrity
by  a proper diet, and relieve it from  an  invading enemy
by  proper homoeopathic treatment.

ANTI-PSORIC   REMEDIES.
                JODIUM— IODINE.

Dynamise one  grain  of iodine according to the  mode
taught in the first volume.
   Iodine is a heroic medicine, even when employed in the
highest potencies ; its use requires all  the discretion of a
good  homoeopathic physician, lest he  should abuse this
substance,  as allceopathic  physicians  do, who frequently
destroy the constitution and even the life of their patients,
by enormous and improperly applied doses of the  drug in
question.
   Iodine has rendered especial service in affections with
 he following symptoms : Dizziness in the morning ; /throb-
bing in the head; pain as from excoriation in the eyes; buz-
zing in the ears ; hardness of hearing; coated tongue ; mer-
curial ptyalism ; bad  taste, as of soap ; sour eructations,
with a sense  as of burning; heartburn, after eating heavy
food ;  canine hunger ; nausea ; incarceration of flatulence ;
distension of the abdomen ; constipation ; nightly  mictu-
rition ;  delaying menses ;  cough ; old morning  cough;
difficulty of breathing; external  swelling of the   neck;
weakness of  the arms, early in the morning when in bed;
going to sleep of the fingers ; curvature of the bones ; dry-
ness of the skin ; night sweats.
   This drug has been  proved by Drs. Gersdorff,  Gross,
Hartlaub and Trinks,  Schreter.
   From Noack  and Trinks : Iodine  is useful in the fol-
lowing affections :  Scrophulosis,  (it is  supposed by some
that the muriate of baryta will dispute the rank with iodine
in the treatment  of  scrofula.)  Glandular affections,
especially swelling of the  thyroid gland, hypertrophy  of
the tonsillae, parotid gland, &c.  Affections of the  mucous
nembranes,  especially  when  depending upon a scrofu-
lous  and leuco-phlegmatic disposition  ; and particularly
when this condition seems to affect all the functions  of the

being; in catarrhal affections of the  Schneidenan mem-
brane without any  fever, of the Eustachian tube, larynx,
trachea, vagina,  urethra, with  disposition  to  thin, white
coryza and obstruction of the  nose, especially in persons
of between 20  and  30 years, brought on by cold and
neglected  catarrhal fever.   Syphilis,  with  tendency  to
hypertrophy ; chancre eleve.   Iodine has cured a chancre
on the fraenulum praeputii ;  the frenulum  having become
detached, that portion of the ulcer which was situated  on
the fraenulum, became elevated, whilst that other portion
which  was situated upon the glans was deepened, with-
out, however, showing the characteristic edges of a  chan-
cre.  The cure was effected in this way :—the edges be-
came dry first, the  ulcer became gradually covered with a
brown crust, under which  the suppurative process conti-
nued  for a time,  but afterwards left a solid,  star-shaped
cicatrix,  there being very little substance lost, so that the
cicatrix appeared rather even than excavated.   Old gout,
characterised by violent, nightly pains,  in various joints,
without  any swelling ;   spina  ventosa  and caries  of the
spongy extremities of the bones.  Arsenic disease.   Tabes
mercurialis.   Dropsy ;   dropsy after fever and ague, in a
scrofulous female ; various forms of  intermittent fever
and ascites, intimately connected with disturbances of the
spleen ;  scarlatina, when Bell, would do no good, (giving
mercury first.)    Sore  nipples, consequent upon  scrofu-
lous conditions.   Scirrhous induration.  Febris meseraica ;
Lobethal observes, that in febris  meseraica, iodine is infe-
rior to Caxc carb., when this fever indicates, as it often
does, very insidiously, an approaching atrophy.  Inflamed,
big, bloated eyelids.  Humming before the ears and hard-
ness of hearing, being remains of frequent colds or catar-
rhal inflammations of the  throat, when we can with cer-
 tainty diagnose  an accumulation of  mucus in the Eusta-
 chian tube by the humming being increased by chewing or
 any other motion of the jaws, or when the cold frequently
 returns, or when the patient  complains of his ear being
 closed by  a valve.  Hard  hearing  from  swelling of the
 tonsillae ;   swelling  of  the parotid gland.   Obstinate  and
 torpid swelling of the cervical glands.  Constitutional sto-
 macace.  Chronic, painless  vomiting,  (in  the case of a

peared, but the  menses did not come on.)   Leucorrhcea,
of  scrofulous  females; chronic leucorrhcea when  accom-
panied by  a pale, cachectic  and chlorotic complexion and
disposition to catarrhal affections.  Diseases of the trachea.

and burning in the  throat, in persons who incline to phthi-
sis.  Cough remaining after an epidemic influenza; violent
influenza ;  cough, with spitting of blood ; pain in the chest
and high fever, (preceded by aconite.)  Cough, with tena-
cious, white expectoration, excited by an irritation under
the upper  portion of the  sternum—worst  early   in  the
morning.    Chronic  catarrh  of persons who incline  to
phthisis laryngea  or pulmonalis.   Croup, in alternation

  Persons suffering  with ulceration  of the  lungs, can
scarcely get well without this  anti-psoric.  Nitric acid is
frequently indicated after Kali.
  This drug has been proved by Drs. Hahnemann, Gers-

  Noack  and  Trinks furnish the  following clinical re-
marks  on Kali.  Dropsical symptoms in the case of a
very old  female.  Paralysis,  (also Causticum.)   Humid
tetters  in the hands, with itching and stinging.   Scirrhous
induration.  Chronic  headache, over the  eyes,  moving

thinks that Kali carb. may  be advantageously employed
in pleuritis of tuberculous subjects ; according to Goullon,
it merely relieves the temporary pleuritic symptoms in tu-
berculous subjects.   Pleuritic affections of  every degree,
no matter whether it is a case of  pure pleuritis or pleuro-
pneumonia, (preceded by Aconite, according to  Goullon ;)
pneumonia, when the violent  lancinations and the inability
to breathe deeply continue or return after the administra-
tion  of Aconite, and the  accompanying cough  is dry and
suppressed,  " hence  in  genuine pleuritis."    Incipient
pulmonary  phthisis,  with   occasional discharge of tu-
berculous masses, darting stitches through the  chest, and
exhausting, dry  cough,  great weakness  and emaciation;
it is therefore useful in tuberculous phthisis,  when  the
tubercles become dissolved, (together with Lycop.;) puru-
lent  pulmonary phthisis,  (giving first Aeon, and Nux v. ;)
against bags of  pus in the lungs Kali is  useful  during an
aggravation of the symptoms in the fall-season, especially
when there  is  fever, pain in the chest,  lying  down, &c.
Dr. Libert found it little useful in tuberculous pulmonary
phthisis.   Mucous  phthisis,  with violent cough, mucous,
yellow expectoration, especially early in  the morning, sore
pain, occasional  stitches in the chest,  especially under the
short ribs  of the  right  side when  touching the  side, or

Tins dust-like powder, which  is yellowish, smooth to the
touch, is obtained from the ears of a moss, known under
the name  of Lycopodium Clavatum, which grows in the
forests of Russia and Finland.   Towards the end of sum-
mer, the ears are dried, and afterwards beaten.
  When thrown into a flame,  it flashes up, and has been
used  to cover pills which  easily adhere to one another,
and to protect sore places in folds against the friction oc-

 ticum. A cup of coffee prevents and completely neutralizes

   It is but little which I have to offer concerning this drug.
But it must certainly become a powerful agent in the treat-
ment of chronic diseases, considering that bathing in the
sea has frequently done great good, even making allowance
for the good effects of the journey, the absence of the cares
and turmoil of business, the dashing of the waves, &c. In
the North-sea, a pound of sea-water contains at least an
ounce of this  salt.
   However, inasmuch as one  anti-psoric is seldom suffi-
cient to cure developed psora, it was impossible  that these
baths should remove  more symptoms  than are  contained
in the chloride.   The remaining  symp'oms  ought  to be
treated by other drugs.
   Experience has taught me to look upon this agent as a
most valuable anti-psoric, and I recom:r.rnd it  most ear-
nestly for further trials.
   It has been found especially useful, when the following
symptoms  were present:  Headache, every day ; pulsa-
tions in the ear; tensive pressure in the head; eruption in
the face ; aching pain in the liver, even when  walking, or
feeling the part, greatest  when lying upon the right side ;
continual distension of the abdomen, with constipation ;
tingling stinging in the muscles of the abdomen ;  old, pain-
ful hardness of the right side  of  the  abdomen: taenia ;
knotty, hard, difficult,  insufficient, delaying stool;  chronic
diarrhoea ; hysteric and  abdominal  symptoms,  extending
even into the  thighs and  bringing on leucorrhoea  ; trouble-
some dryness of the nose; the  arms go to sleep, early in
the morning, when waking up;  paralytic drawing in the
arms and knees ; aching  in  the knees ; sweaty  feet; lia-
bility to  catch  cold ;  weakness of  the body, apparently
originating in the stomach.

MANGANUM—(MAGNESIUM, MANGANESIUM.)

  Equal parts, in weight,  of the black oxyde of manga-
nese and crystals of pure sulphate  of iron are triturated
together in the mortar, and, having been mixed with some

MANGANUM.
syrup of sugar, are made into balls of  the size of a hen's
egg, which are heated  between charcoal, and kept in a
state of incandescence for about ten minutes.   A solution
of these balls in pure distilled, or rain-water, contains the
pure sulphate of  manganese,  the  sediment containing a
mixture of ihe remaining oxyde of manganese and oxyde
of iron.
  The carbonate of manganese, which is precipitated from
the clear  solution by means of Natrum, and ought to be
washed with water a sufficient number of times, is a white
powder, the  drying  of  which in  the air, and subsequent
powdering requires  great care, lest it  should assume a
yellowish  colour, which  would show that there is yet some
of the  oxyde  of iron  remaining in it.  To  remove this
oxyde, the yellowish  powder is dissolved in dilute nitric
acid to saturation,  the  solution is then filtered through
paper,  a precipitate is formed by means of Natrum,  the
precipitate being  afterwards freed from its admixture of
salt by means of distilled water, and then dried.
  The carbonate  of Manganese is dynamised in the usual
fashion; or else  it may be  boiled  with distilled vinegar,
until a  saturated solution shall have been obtained, which is
then boiled into a syrup.  This is the Manganum aceticum,

              DAPHNE MEZEREUM.

Early in Spring we collect the  bark  of this bush when
beginning to blossom.   Formerly the  juice of the recent
green bark was pressed out and mixed with equal parts of
alcohol, this mixture being used  for the preparation of the
potencies.   This juice, when  touching the skin, produces
a very painful burning, which lasts for a long time.  Inas-
much as the medicinal power  of this drug is not of a vola-
tile nature, it is better to dry the plant and  to triturate it
like all other dry substances.
   This drug has been found useful in the following affec-
tions :—Humid, itching eruptions on the head and behind
fiie ears ; ophthalmia ; leucorrhoea of  many  years' stand-
ing ; shortening of the lower limb ; nightly itching of the
body.
   The drug  has been  proved  by Drs. Franz,  Caspan,
 Gersdorff, Gross, Hartlaub, Ruckert, Schonke, Teuthorn,
 and two students.
   From Noack and Trinks :—Rickets ?—Scrofulous af-
 fections, with glanddar swellings.—Mercurial cachexia.—
 Pains through the whole  body, wilh nightly pains in the
 bones,  brought on  by several syphilitic  affections, (in con-
 junction with Rhus :)—Inflammation, ramollissement and
 caries of the bones.—Swelling of the  bones.—Syphilitic
 ramollissement of the bones.—Periostitis of the tibia, con-
 sequent upon an  ulcer of  the leg, the parts being covered
 with a brown, dry skin, and being surrounded with reddish-
 blue spots, wilh violent, burning pains caused by the slight-
 est pressure wilh the finger, swollen periostitis, the violent
 pain preventing the stepping  upon the foot, nightly aggra-
 vation of the pains, and  cramp in the calves.—Ulcers of the
 bones  with morbid interstitial growth of the soft parts, even
 in the case of fistulae.—Spina ventosa.—Very troublesome
 exanthemata, burning, especially in lh6 night, exciting one

      MURIATIC  ACID—ACIDUM  HYDRO-
                   CHLORICUM.          *

  The colourless muriatic acid of the shops, which is ob-
tained  from common salt by distilling it  with sulphuric
acid, contains a good portion of this latter substance.  To
purify this  muriatic acid, tlie sulphuric  acid  ought  to be
precipitated by means of the muriate of baryta forming the
sulphate of baryta ; the supernatant liquid is poured off and
distilled over again.
  The  yellow  muriatic acid, distilled over  by means  of
the sulphate of iron, contains too much iron to be used for
homoeopathic purposes.
  Muriatic acid has  been found  useful  in affections in
which the following symptoms occur: Half-sightednessin
looking from above downwards ; insensibility in tbe inter-
nal meatus auditorius ; throbbing in the  ear;  deafness ;
pimples in the face ;  freckles ; sore throat; eructations;
aversion to meat; distension and  repletion  of the  abdo-
men ; abdominal spasms ; stool too thin; obstruction  of
the nose ; drawing with pressure,  in the upper arms and
knees ; coldness of the feet; sensitiveness to damp weather.
  This drug has been proved by myself and Drs. Gutmann,
Hartmann, Haynel, Langhammer, Rummel, Stapf, Wisli-
cenus, Ng.

distilled water, filter  the solution through blotting paper,
and cause it to crystallize by a heat of 40° R.   Dynamize
one grain of the crystals in the usual fashion.
  We have almost no knowledge of the curative powers
of salt.   When it has been used for the  purpose of arrest-
ing hemorrhage, the excessive dose, a table-spoonful at
once, did  effect  that result, but it  evidently  acted as a
violent  counter-irritant  upon  ihe stomach and bowels, in
the same way as a cataplasm of mustard-seed, when  ap-
plied  upon the calves or arms, will sometimes  produce a
sudden, temporary cessation of toothache.
  Jf it be true lhat substances which are capable of curing
diseases, are on the other hand, in all cases, capable of pro-
ducing similar diseases in the healthy organism, it is diffi-
cult lo comprehend how all nations, even savages  and bar-
barians, should have  used salt in large  quantities without
experiencing  any deleterious  effects from  that  mineral.
It is true lhat  Lind traces  the scurvy on board  ships
to the use of salt meat;  but this explanation  is incomplete,
inasmuch as a number  of other causes are instrumental
in developing lhat disease.
  Considering that salt,* when ordinarily used, has no per-
nicious effect  upon the  organism, we  ought  not to expect
any curative influence from lhat substance.   Nevertheless,
salt contains  the most  marvellous curative  powers in a
latent slate.
  The transmutation, by means of  the  peculiar  mode of
preparation adopted in  homoeopathy,  of a substance like
salt, which  is apparently inert in its crude state, into a
heroic medicine, the use of which requires the  greatest
  • Salt substances, when taken in excess, excite heat and thirst, where-
as the thirst, which healthy persons experience from want of drink, is re.
lieved by taking as much salt as may be laid on the  point of a knife.
These two facts seem to point very slightly to both the power of injuring
and the power of curing inherent in salt.  However, other apparently in-
nocent substances, when taken in excess, may likewise become hurtful.
