THE HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT OF HOOPING COUGH, BY C. VON BCENNINGHAUSEN, M. D. TRANSLATED WITH ADDITIONS BY CARROLL DUNHAM, M. D. NEW YORK: HENRY M. SMITH AND BROTHER, 107 Fourth Avenue. 1 8 7 0. Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1870, by CARROLL DUNHAM, M. D., In the Clerk’s Office of the District Court of the United States, for the Southern District of New York. T. BOLHAN, PRINTER, Corner Centre and White Streets, N. Y. PREFACE. Ik the letter in w hich Dr. Yon Bonninghausen authorized the translation of his treatise on Hooping Cough, which is here presented to the profession, he says: “ Although this professes to he a work on the homoeopathic treatment of Hooping Cough, it would he a great mistake to suppose that its usefulness is restricted to cases of cough called by that name. “ Inasmuch as we, Homoeopathists, treat concrete diseases and not abstract names, so it follows that a work on Hooping Cough may be equally available and useful as a guide in the treatment of any and every cough of a spasmodic nature, whether it receive the name of Hooping Cough or not.” In the hope of making the work still more valuable and more widely available, the translator has added to the origi- nal treatise of Dr. Yon Bonninghausen, what he considers to be the characteristic cough symptoms of Allium cepa and of Humex crispus, both derived from the Am. Arzneiprufungen of Dr. C. Hering, and those of Kali bichromicum from Dr. Drysdale’s essay in the Hahnemann Materia Medica, together with the symptoms of Alumina, from Hahnemann’s Chron- ische Krankheiten, vol. 2; Angustura, from Hahnemann’s Mat. Med. Pura, vol. 6 ; Chelidonium, from Dr. Buchmann’s essay in the Allg. Horn. Zeitung, vol. lxx.; Corallium rub- rum, from Attomyr’s proving Archiv. xi., Teste’s remarks (Materia Medica), and the translator’s clinical observations; PREFACE. Croton tiglium, from Buchner’s proving Archiv. xix. and xx.; Eupatorlum perfol, Lobelia infiata, and Sanguinaria canaden- sis, from provings in vol. 1, Transactions of the American In- stitute of Homoeopathy; Hydrocyanic acid, from Hartlaub and Trink’s Arzneimittellehre, vol. 1, and Noack and Trink’s Manual; Lactuca virosa, from Noack and Trink’s Manual; and Sticta pulmonaria, from recent American journals, chiefly the Am. Horn. Review. Moreover, Dr. J. B. Bell, of Augusta, Me., kindly furnished the symptoms of Badiaga, and Dr. Ad. Lippe, Philadelphia, those of Mephitis and Coccus cacti (from the CEsterreichische Zeitsclirift, vol. 4, and H. V. S., vol. 1). To prevent the possibility of confounding the additions with Dr. Yon Bonningliausen’s work, the initials or name of the contributor have been appended to each article. For the sake of perspicuity, the Repertory of the transla- tion deviates from that of the original in one or two particu- lars, e. g., in the repetition of a few headings under several rubrics, and in the separation of the conditions of ameliora- tion from those of aggravation. For the same reason, the alphabetical arrangement has not been, in all cases, strictly followed. C. D. New York, May, 1870. CONTENTS. PAGE Introduction—§ 1. The Names 5 § 2. History 6 § 3.

The Names.—As with many diseases, the nature and individuality of which are the subject of diverse opinions and which are of frequent occurrence and yet present considerable difficulties in the way of a speedy and complete cure, so we find applied to Hooping Cough a long series of names, almost all of which refer to some common or obvious peculiarity of the cough, but which, for the most part, contribute but little to a sharp characterizing of it. The most current and best known are the following : 1. Learned-Pathological, Latin.—Tussis convulsiva, T. spasmodica, T. cucularis, T. clamosa, T. clangosa, T. clangorosa spasmodica, T. asinina, T. ferina, T. canina, T. stomachalis, T. quinta, T. quintana, T. infantum, T. pueros strangulans, T. popularis et febris epidemica, Pertussis, Febris catarrhosa, Catarrhus epidemicus, Catarrhus suffocans, Cuculus, Amphemerina tussiculosa, Cephalalgia epidemica, Bronchitis epidemica, Bron- chitis cephalaica, Orthopnoea tussiculosa, Morbus cucularis. 2. German.—Keuchhusten, Keichhusten, Kinkhusten, Krampfhusten, Huehnerweh, Stickhusten, Schreihusten, Eselshusten, blauer Husten, epidemischer Kinderhusten, Schafhusten, Brechhusten, Kielhusten, konvulsivischer Katarrh, spasmodischer Husten, asthmatischer Husten. 6 HISTORY. 3. French.—Coqueluche, chant de coq, Mai des montons, Gloussement ou mal de poulet, Quinte, Ver- vecine, Mal de Castrone, Architoux des enfans, Bron- chite convulsif, Bronchoceplialite, Catarrhe suffocant, Catarrhe convulsif, Allure de follet, Follete, Pepie. 4. English.—Chin cough, Kink cough, Hooping cough. 5. Swedish.—Kikhosta, Hopfhosta, Kramphosta. 6. Dutch.—Kinkhcest. It will be perceived that, in this list of synonyms, which is scarcely complete but yet is more than suffi- cient, the apodictic German and the figurative French designations stand next, in order of abundance, to the learned-pathological (Latin) names. The title Hooping Cough, which has in its favor the greatest number of authorities and which is universally understood, will answer our purpose, especially since, by adding the clause “ in its various forms,” wre mean to intimate that we do not propose here to treat of an independent, unchangeable variety of cough, but of such a cough as distinguishes itself, in its external manifestations, from other coughs, only by its spasmodic character. II. History.—The history of Hooping Cough goes back into gray antiquity and is lost more and more in darkness and uncertainty the farther we endeavor to trace it; for in early days, as also now, to some ex- tent, especially in the case of diseases that occur in various forms and are not of an independent and un- changeable nature, exact descriptions of each special manifestation were not recorded and we have but scanty and indefinite intimations of them. HISTORY. Some authors assert that even Hippocrates (Epid., L, VI, and VII ; Morb. Mulier, L, I, and even in the Aphor., VI, 46,) intended to refer to this'disease. Also the Arabians, Mesue (Jahiah ebn Masawaih,) in the ninth, and Avicenna (Al-Hussein-Abu-Ali-Ben Abdal- lah, Ebn Sina,) in the eleventh century, are supposed to have known and described this cough. We find described, with greater certainty, a variety of it which prevailed in France in the year 1414 and which recurred nearly a century later, 1510, and sub- sequently at shorter intervals, 1551 and 1580. The records of diseases of a similar kind which prevailed at an earlier date render it to some extent probable, but not historically certain, that they were the same or a very similar affection. On the first appearance of this disease, in 1414, it was very malignant, proving fatal to almost all adults w’ho were attacked by it. The epidemic of 1510 was very clearly distinguished by the accessory symptoms, viz.: very violent pains in head, stomach and loins, high fever, delirium, etc. The later epidemic of 1557, which extended also over Germany, presented, in its turn, important distinguish- ing features, inasmuch as it attacked, almost exclu- sively, children, of whom a great many died of suffoca- tion. In the year 1580, it occurred simultaneously with the plague and appeared first in Italy, where, in Rome alone, 9000 children died of it. It thence extended over France and Germany. Here, too, we come upon peculiarities which serve to distinguish this from the previous epidemics ; for, this time, it was accompanied by a violent fever, and, as in the year 1414, very many 8 THE PICTUEE OF THE DISEASE. adults and aged persons were attacked and carried off by it. Subsequently, such epidemics of Hooping Cough occurred at continually shorter intervals. Among us, for example, they raged in 1709, 1712, 1732, 1747, 1755, 1768, 1772, 1775, 1777, 1780, etc., but with various de- grees of severity, often in a milder form. The case has been much the same during the former half of the present century, and, at the present day, the disease scarcely at all ceases to prevail, but occurs, year in and year out; in rather a sporadic form, however, at- tacking isolated children or families, here and there; although periods do still occur in which the malady takes the complete form of an epidemic.* III. The Picture of the Disease.—An elaborate pic- ture of Hooping Cough, completely finished even to the finest shadings, will hardly be expected in a work like the present. Such a picture would be superfluous, for the reason that every one who may resort to these pages for counsel, will already have learned to recog- nize this cough, which occurs, alas, only too frequently ; or if, by good fortune, he has not yet had an opportu- nity of learning to know it, he can easily do so, through * Similar facts, easily attested by a historical reference, are found in the history of several diseases both external (.measles, scarlatina, small-pox), and internal (nervous fever, grippe, cholera), of which, in the course of time, the great wide-spread epidemics have pretty much disappeared; while, on the other hand, their sporadic ap- pearance in isolated regions and individuals is an almost con- stant phenomenon. This circumstance seems worthy of especial consideration, when we come to weigh the advantages and disad- vantages of vaccination hitherto practiced, against which, of late years, so many and powerful voices have been raised. THE PICTURE OP THE DISEASE. 9 the symptoms, which are herein presented in great abundance and in a form which admits of easy refer- ence. On the other hand, a complete description would require an expansion of the work which would be out of place and would cause it, through diffuseness, to lose in comprehensibility and in facility for reference. Our purpose, then, will be sufficiently attained by a de- tail of the following principal features of the affection. The true peculiarity of Hooping Cough, and which distinguishes it most definitely from all other varieties of cough, consists in the following, viz.: the cough ap- pears in paroxysms, which last a longer or shorter time, are distinct from each other and independent, and are repeated, more or less frequently, by day as well as at night. During these paroxysms of cough, the individ- ual coughs follow each other more or less quickly in a spasmodic manner and cease, only to admit of long and deep inspirations which are laboriously effected and are accompanied by various but, generally, peculiar tones, whereupon the cough is resumed in a similar manner until the paroxysm is entirely at an end. After each such paroxysm there follows a longer or shorter pause, during which, especially in the beginning of the dis- ease, the patient recovers himself and a period of rela- tive health ensues which endures until the next parox- ysm. Only when the malady has already lasted weeks and months does a higher degree of ill-health ensue, in consequence of the repeated paroxysms ; the patients, then, no longer enjoy the benefit of recovering their vigor during the pauses between the paroxysms of cough ; the entire organism is sympathetically affected; the patient keeps growing sicker, weaker and more wretched, and either he passes away during a parox- 10 THE SEAT AND NATURE. ysm or else the seed of one of the various, hut for the most part, malignant diseases is deposited which often fatally undermine health and life. It is customary to assume three stages of Hooping Cough, which, nevertheless, are seldom very distinctly marked, but generally pass gradually into one another and are seldom, if ever, sharply defined. The first stage, which is called the catarrhal stage, resembles, altogether, an ordinary catarrh, and gives no special indications of the threatening danger, which is generally to be suspected only from the prevailing epidemic character of disease at the time. The second stage begins with the commencement of the spasmodic symptoms, which begin to accompany the paroxysms of cough, and which then increase from day to day, in an ever-advancing ratio until the above described condition is fully developed. The third stage, so-called, is the period in which, if the patient live to reach it, the paroxysms decrease in duration and violence and the health gradually returns; or else the disease undergoes a transition into a chronic malady which then gradually comes to hear some other name. The duration of the proper Hooping Cough disease, when left to itself, is very various and may be from two months to a half year. But there are also cases which last stilt longer and in these, as a general rule, the sequelaa are extremely deplorable. Allopathy has seldom succeeded in abridging this duration. IV. The Seat and Nature op Hooping Cough.—Inves- tigations and observations upon the seat and the nature of Hooping Cough, have, from the first appearance of THE SEAT AND NATURE. the disease to our own day, given occupation to numer- ous physicians ; and, as generally happens, each one of them has expressed an opinion of his own and given it out for the only correct one. It will hardly be expected that all these views should here be cited and elucidated. We gladly relinquish to the learned pathologist the task of pronouncing whether the nature (and seat) of Hooping Cough is to be sought for in the irritation produced by an insect (Rosentein, Linnaeus, Clesius), or in a hot exhalation of the blood (Sydenham), f>r in a peculiar miasm (Jahn, Boehme), or in the stomach or intestinal canal (Danz, Waldschmidt, Stoll), or in spasm of the glottis and of the diaphragm (Gardien), or in the eighth pair of nerves (Hufeland, Wendt), or—anywhere else. We content ourselves with stating, in all brevity and without intending to oppose any other opinion, that we ourselves incline, in preference, to the view of Dr. Whatt, who, after losing his own three children from Hooping Cough, came to the conclusion that this disease consists in an inflam- mation of the mucous membrane of the trachea and its ramifications (Bronchitis*). This opinion, which however should exert no imme- diate influence whatever upon the treatment of any concrete case, may receive some weight from the fact that the nerves which appear to be especially active during the Hooping Cough paroxysms and so act upon their various organs,—as, the eighth pair, the facial * By reason of painful experiences in his own family, Dr. Whatt must, in this case, be regarded as just as good authority as the still more famous Sydenham, whose work on “Podagra” is still held in the highest esteem, beciuse he himself suffered from, and although he himself died of, that same disease. 12 CAUSES. nerve, the vagus, and the accessory of Willis, the phrenic nerve and the thoracic nerve, are the same which are most affected by respiration. V. Causes.—Physicians of the old school cite the following as predisposing causes of Hooping Cough : 1. Childhood and the female sex ; 2. Habitual exposure to a too warm and relaxing temperature; 3. Sleeping too long, especially in a very warm bed ; 4. Feeding children with too much moist farinaceous food ; 5. Too frequent use of warm drinks, as tea and coffee ; 6. Too close sedentary habits and application to study at too early an age ; 1. Onanism, which is often practiced by children of eight to twelve years. Among the exciting causes are enumerated : 1. A moist atmosphere, warm as well as cold, espe- cially when it suddenly follows a dry condition of the atmosphere ; 2. Infection, which can scarcely be altogether de- nied, since the disease is often transferred by it to mothers and nurses ; 3. Affections of any kind, the result of taking cold ; 4. Helminthiasis ; 5. Dentition. We, Homoeopathicians, readily coincide with these views, but would add to the list of the predisposing causes, the chronic miasms, especially Psora; and to the exciting causes, various items which are mentioned in section II, under II, 2 (“aggravation according to TERMINATIONS AND PROGNOSIS. 13 circumstances”), and which need no further notice here. VI. Terminations and Prognosis.—The ordinary term- inations of Hooping Cough, under allopathic treatment, and the prognosis which is based upon them leave very much, not to say every thing, to be desired. If the disease run even the most favorable course and the patient escape from it, not only with his life, but even with his previous degree of health unim- paired—it is, nevertheless, while it lasts, a most tedi- ous and tormenting affair, and fills the days and nights of parents with anxiety and concern. Hence the unani- mous complaints of all physicians, in all ages—that remedies prescribed with most circumspect care against this disease are utterly fruitless—are but too well grounded ; and we often hear the most candid and the most experienced among them give utterance to the bitterest complaints of the insufficiency of the healing art against this foe of mankind, and preach only pa- tience and again, and once again, patience ! In malignant cases, the patients often just escape, it is true, with their lives, but subsequently there appears a host of the most diverse sequelae or infirmities which the rescued patient must endure till his latest breath. How fearfully great the number of children is whom this scourge has snatched away, in many epidemics, by a most pitiable death, several authors have informed us by exact statistics. But we gladly forbear the repe- tition of these sad details because it is needless to speak of inevitable misery and it were wrong to add weight to anxious apprehensions, already but too well founded ! 14 TERMINATIONS AND PROGNOSIS. How entirely different are the prognosis and termin- ations of Hooping Cough, when the patients are so for- tunate as to fall under the care of a skillful and expe- rienced Homceopathician ! Fatal cases are hardly to he reckoned among the possible terminations. There must be a rare concur, rence of the most unfavorable conditions, as well in the constitution of the patient as in the external influences to which he is subjected when the disease terminates fatally. But, in such cases, death is not to be ascribed to the Hooping Cough alone, to which only a greater or less share of this unfavorable termination, rare as it is, can be attributed ; and death would probably, in such a case, have been the result, in like manner, of any se- rious disease whatever its nature might be. From the sequelae too, so frequent and so lamentable, little is to be dreaded under the homoeopathic treat- ment. For, on the one hand, the power and energy of the disease are broken in a few days ; and, on the other, the chronic miasm which is being aroused by it (call it scrofula) psora, or what we may) and in which the roots of these sequelae generally rest, may be speedily and surely removed by remedies which Ho- moeopathy, likewise, has in. her possession. In all cases, however, without exception, a great and incontestable advantage of Homoeopathy is found in the fact that it very considerably abridges the duration of the disease and, to speak with the utmost modera- tion, requires for a complete cure, not so many weeks, as Allopathy requires months. We may then assert, with great confidence, that un- der homoeopathic treatment, the prognosis and termin- ations of Hooping Cough are thoroughly favorable. ALLOPATHIC TREATMENT. 15 VII. Allopathic Treatment. — The allopathic treat- ment of Hooping Cough lies too far from the object of this work to admit of a special notice. We restrict ourselves therefore, to a few remarks, which, for the sake of completeness and of comparison with Homoeo- pathy, could not be entirely omitted. To avoid all ap- pearance of partiality, we will confine ourselves to quotations from the leading allopathic authors. “ Hooping Cough,” says, among others, the late Dr. A. F. Marcus in his work upon this disease, and which, alas, was his last work, page 131, “ presents a remarka- ble example of the labyrinth into which physicians are led at the bedside, when the nature and seat of a disease are unknown to them. There is no remedy of any con- sequence, no mode of treatment which has not, in its turn, been tried for this disease, extolled and finally rejected.” The same sentiment, in somewhat different language, has been expressed by Dr. F. G. Danz in his “ Essay towards a general History of Hooping Cough,” page 85; and by several other authors, who all present di- verse views and recommend diverse remedies, which they sometimes proclaim to be infallible and stoutly contend for; and who, at the most, agree only in this one statement, that, of all remedial agents, a change of air and of residence is the best. Of the endless number and variety of remedies that have been given and recommended a tolerably complete view is given in the comprehensive and excellent Medico-Chirurgical, Therapeutical Dictionary of Pro- fessor Dr. Barez, Vol. Ill, pp. 551 et seq. We there find that almost every thing contained in the Pharma- copoeia has been tried and administered—from the 16 HOMCEOPATHIC TREATMENT. deadliest poisons (Hydrocyanic acid, Arsenic), to sub- stances that have been declared inert and have, there- fore, become obsolete (Verbascum, Veronica, and Black Woodsnails). This long list of remedies might receive no inconsiderable addition from the multifarious do- mestic and popular remedies, the number of which bears, generally, a direct proportion to the incurability of the disease. VIII. Homceopathic Treatment.—The treatment of Hooping Cough, according to the laws of the homoeo- pathic system, is divided into two parts: 1. The choice of the remedy; 2. The administration of the remedy. Each of these parts is well enough known to the in- structed Homoeopathician, and might therefore be dis- patched with a few general remarks. As we flatter ourselves, however, with the hope that some physicians who are yet on the threshold of the new system of medicine and perhaps even some non-medical men, in regions where as yet there are no homoeopathic phy- sicians, may incline to avail themselves of this work, it seems to us fitting to state what is necessary on this subject, distinctly, though as briefly as possible. 1. The Choice of the Remedy.—This depends entirely and exclusively upon the symptoms, which are to be gathered with the greatest attention and the" most care- ful investigation. These symptoms are by no means restricted solely to the character and peculiarities of the cough, as such; but it is imperatively and indispen- sably necessary that they include also the periods and conditions of the aggravation of the cough, as well as the other simultaneous (concomitant) morbid phenome- HOMCEOPATHIC TREATMENT. 17 na; and this must be done, even though these latter phenomena may appear to stand in no relation what- ever or in a merely aceidental relation to the cough itself and may not at present be susceptible of a phy- siological explanation. This is not the place for a systematic exposition of the reasons for this unalterable rule, which holds good for all concrete cases of disease; nor for a demonstra- tion of the great difference between this method of treatment and that which has been called in derision “ symptomatic treatment.” In accordance with these requirements, we have endeavored so to arrange the first part of this work that under the name of each of the remedies which fol- low in alphabetical order, should be comprised the following items : First: a brief but accurate diagnosis of the cough itself, involving : a. The general character of the cough ; b. The exciting cause of the cough ; c. The expectoration, with reference to the manner of raising it and to its character. Second : under the title “ aggravation: a. The period of the day ; b. The circumstances that are especially observed to exist as conditions which exercise a greater or less in- fluence upon the provocation and aggravation of the paroxysms of coughing, and which often very materi- ally contribute to give to the cough an individual character. Third : the third heading called “ concomitants,'1' com- prises a selection of concomitant symptoms, some of which occur simultaneously with the cough, while 18 HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. others are observed as something abnormal or morbid, affecting the patient at other times. These, taken col- lectively, serve, by exclusion of other remedies which either do not present these symptoms or present them but incompletely, to assure the choice of the most appropriate remedy for the case in hand. From a comparison of all these symptoms which however are but a condensed excerpt from the com- plete collection of symptoms, as far as they apply to this subject, it will be easy to see what an endless number of experiments upon healthy persons and of ob- servations at the bedside were necessary, in order that the characteristic peculiarities of each of the various remedies could be so gathered and brought up to view. But these very characteristics are unquestionably the most important element in the choice of the most ap- propriate remedy ; and nothing attests more surely and conclusively the skilful readiness of a homoeopathic practitioner than the faculty of bringing to light, in his examination of the patient, those symptoms which, while they are of rare occurrence and belong to but few remedies—yet, and for that very reason, furnish definite and unquestionable indications for the selection of one single drug. We have considered it indispensable to append to the first part, which, strictly speaking, constitutes the text of the work, a second part under the title “ Guide to the Symptoms” (Repertory), which may serve to in- dicate where the very numerous symptoms are to be found, and to assist the memory in the search for them. This may also be conveniently used to distinguish, through the smallness of their number, the rarer phe- nomena from those which are more numerous and of HOMCEOPATHIC TREATMENT. 19 more frequent occurrence and to direct investigation immediately to these rarer and characteristic symptoms. Although what has been said seems clear enough and the mode of using this second part would follow from it as a matter of course, yet it may not be amiss to add a few words of more minute explanation. Under I, 1, of part second, the designation “ Hoop- ing Cough” or “ Spasmodic Cough” has, in itself, no great significance. When, however, this cough oc- curs, for example, in paroxysms, consisting, each, of two coughs (Pulsatilla), or, each, of three coughs (Stan- num) or, when, for example (I, 3, a), & second paroxysm follows very soon after the first (Mercurius and Sulphur) there exist, in these peculiarities, very useful, though by no means altogether sufficient, characteristic indi- cations. A further confirmation or ground for rejection of the remedy, may then be found by comparison with 1, 2, 3 and 4, and with II, 1 and 2, but especially with the last (II, 2, conditions) which furnish abundant data for rendering the choice of the remedy pretty sure, if not altogether incontestible. This certainty is to be more definitely attained by comparison of the various rubrics under III (concomi* tants) which are arranged in the order familiar to every Homoeopathician. For, here are found the majority of the symptoms, which, taken collectively, belong to, and constitute the characteristic, and which furnish the means of coming to a definite conclusion. If, for example, lacrymation, epistaxis, or vomiting in general, does not serve to give an available indication, yet these symp- toms may be of the greatest use, when the rarer pecu- liarities id Inch are recorded in connection with them are 20 HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. found to correspond in the case of certain individuals, and when, at the same time, no clearly contradictory indications are found in other symptoms. The more accurately all these symptoms, which are easily found under the various rubrics, are reflected by the case under treatment, the more assured may we feel of the propriety of the choice of the remedy we have made, and the more confidently may we expect a happy result. In general, however, the tyro in Homoeopathy cannot too earnestly take to heart the caution to avoid the great error of regarding a large numerical quantity of symptoms that are general in their character and that do not individualize the case, as a sufficient guide in the choice of the remedy. The keen perception and ap- preciation of those symptoms which, at the same time, correspond to the nature of the disease, and also designate that remedy which is exclusively, or, at least, most decid- edly indicated—this alone betokens the master-mind. For it is easier—very much easier—to select the right remedy after a picture of the disease, complete in every respect and fully meeting all requirements, has been drawn up, than oneself to obtain the materials for such a picture and to construct it. The second part of the homoeopathic treatment, viz.: 2. Administration of the Remedy might be treated with still greater brevity, but we fear to give offense to some among the younger Homceopathicians, if we pronounce for the higher and highest potencies and for the smallest doses, with more decision and confidence in this disease than in many others, without giving our rea- sons for so doing. Like so much which the honest and experienced founder of the Homoeopathic School left as HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. 21 a precious legacy to posterity of the fruits of his care- ful observation, the warning seems to have been for- gotten to which he called the attention of his followers in a note to the preface of Drosera (Materia Medica Pura, Yol. VI, p. 238, second edition). In this note, after designating this plant as one of the most power- ful vegetable drugs, and deservedly extolling its great curative power in many epidemic Hooping Coughs and specifying that a single smallest dose of the decillionth potency (30th) is quite sufficient to effect a cure, he uses the following memorable words : “ Be careful to avoid giving a second dose immediately after the first dose, for it would infallibly not only prevent a favor- able issue, but also be the cause of considerable mischief, as I know from experience.” He uses altogether similar language with reference to another remedy which likewise stands in the front rank in the treatment of Hooping Cough, viz., Cina, and gives the assurance that “ the thirtieth potency manifests, most completely, the curative power of the drug.” Supported by such weighty authority, confirmed as it is by an extended practice of many years, the results of which in this very disease have been so favorable that even the bitterest partisans of Allopathy, and those who have been most ready to fling ridicule upon Homoeopathy, have entrusted to our treatment their children when these were suffering with Hooping Cough, we surely need not hesitate frankly to declare that the very smallest dose, viz., two globules, moistened with the two hundredth potency of the properly selected remedy, and dissolved in a few spoonfuls of pure cold water and directed to be suitably succussed before each 22 HOMCEOPATHIC TREATMENT. dose—a spoonful of this to be taken morning and evening—has always fully answered our expectations; and that we have never had occasion to descend to lower dilutions and more massive doses. It need scarcely be said that this remedy must not be inter- fered with in its action by any other drug and there, fore the well-known homoeopathic diet, the sole object of which is to accomplish this end, must be observed.* One word remains to be said respecting the brief remarks appended to each remedy, and which are in- tended to serve merely as indices for the use of the remedy, not at all as a universally applicable rule. ° The prescription of the homoeopathic diet which is throughout in accordance with the laws of nature (this is not the place to specify it in detail) requires of the patient nothing more than the avoidance of all influences which can be injurious to the living organ- ism as well as a suitable moderation in the use of all things which con- duce to the nutrition of the body. It is obvious that a small but, as experience shows, an all-sufficient dose—and what is very im- portant, a dose which leaves all healthy parts of the organism undis- turbed—cannot develope its action without hindrance if at the same time other drugs or poisons, which are the same thing, and for the most part in large doses, are suffered to affect and rule over the organism. Just as little propriety is there, on the other hand, in withholding or diminishing the supply of that which is needed for the normal sustenance of life and its forces, and which is accu- rately enough indicated by the individual desires of the patient. Whoever in the latter case diminishes the appropriate measure (through hunger) or exceeds it (by inordinate indulgence) fails to recognize and disturbs the power and efficacy of the rightly chosen remedy and denies it the confidence it deserves. In the illiterate alone can we forgive the ridiculous confounding of “Homoeopathic ” and small, because to them the very essential distinction between health and disease, between drug and nutriment and finally between the laws and conditions of dead in contra-distinction to living nature are wholly unknown, and they are therefore in this respect any- thing but responsible. HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. 23 The following may be named as the chief remedies in real epidemics of Hooping Cough, at least as far as the experience of Homoeopathicians and of the author hitherto extends: Ambra, Arnica, Baryta, Belladonna, Bryonia, Carbo anim., Carbo veg., Cina, Cuprum, Drosera, Ferrum, He- par, Hyoscyamus, Ipecacuanha, Kali, Nux v., Pulsa- tilla, Sepia, Silicea, Sulphur and Veratrum. Those whose names are printed in small capitals are the most important. Now-a-days, however, there seldom occur those dis- eases prevailing universally (we of course do not speak of names), in which the symptoms and phenomena be- ing constant and identical for all the individuals at- tacked, the treatment may be limited to one or another remedy. Formerly this may, perhaps, have been the case much more frequently; now, however, when wide- spread epidemics, with uniform and definite character, and especially with constant accessory and concomi- tant phenomena, seem to have ceased, such diseases, on the contrary, present themselves, for the most part, rather in a sporadic manner, but, on the other hand, seldom or never entirely disappear, as we see in the case of influenza, nervous fevers, intermittents and to some extent even cholera, etc.* An immediate consequence of this is that in various o We leave to learned pathologists the explanation of this un- questionable physiological phenomenon. To the minds of many of us the scrofulous diathesis (psora) will at once occur, which is con- stantly being extended by the practice of vaccination; and our view of the matter receives confirmation from the fact that, in very many cases of such diseases, which are essentially acute in charac- ter, it is only by the administration of our so-called antipsoric remedies that rapid and durable cures can be effected. 24 HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. individuals a far greater variety in the characteristic symptoms presents itself, and consequently the number of remedies corresponding to each species of disease is proportionately greater. Among the remedies treated of in this work, the following correspond most closely though of course not exclusively: To the First Stage.—Aconite, Belladonna, Bryonia, Carbo an., Carbo veg., Causticum, Chamomilla, Conium, Dulcamara, Euphrasia, Ipecacuanha, Mercurius, Me- zer, Nux vom., Pulsatilla, Sabadilla, Yeratrum and Yer- bascum.

With regard to the indications of the remedies above enumerated for the third stage, but of which the num- ber is far from being complete, it would be impossible to give more minute details than are afforded in the text and second part of this work, without greatly ex- ceeding the limits of this introduction. The reason lies chiefly in the fact that hooping cough patients who have been from the beginning or from a sufficiently early pei'iod under homoeopathic treatment very soon experi- ence a diminution of all malignant (?) symptoms ; and a third stage strictly so-called, with symptoms of greater or less danger, never occurs except when the patients have been previously under allopathic treatment, or when, generally in consequence of proper aid having been too long delayed, the psora miasm is awakened into activity, and then, as so often happens, a drug- cachexy, induced at an earlier period of the disease, has come to complicate it. For if we reflect how very great, as mentioned above, section seven, is the num- ber of drugs, the powers of many of which are in great part unknown—to us at least—which are brought into requisition against this disease by the old school and if we consider, in addition, the just as numerous and various forms of disease which owe their origin to the awakened psora, we shall easily perceive that a treatise upon this subject, embracing, as it must, the manifold sequelae of Hooping Cough, would attain, even were it but half complete, an extent which would make it entirely out of place here. We conclude, then, with Hahnemann’s oft-repeated admonition : “ Follow the example set—follow it full of confidence—but follow it precisely as it has been de- tailed 1” And we do not hesitate to add : “ If, after 28 HOMOEOPATHIC TREATMENT. having done this, the expected result does not ensue, relate the whole course of proceeding, honestly, truly and fully, that every expert may pass judgment upon it and then venture, in full confidence, to warn every one against the homoeopathic treatment of Hooping Cough.” THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. ACONITUM NAP. Clear ringing or whistling Hooping Cough, excited by burning sticking in the larynx and in the trachea ; generally without expectoration ; rarely, in the morning and during the day, with expectoration of some mucus mixed with coagulated blood. Aggravations.—At night, especially after midnight; vexation especially with fright. From being over- heated. From taking cold in a dry cold atmosphere or in a current of air. East or north winds [these are dry winds in Germany]. Walking in the open air. In the winter. Assuming an upright position. Rising. Deep inspiration. Speaking. Lying upon the (painful) side. After sleep. Drinking. Tobacco smoke. Concomitants.—Anxiety and restlessness. Fear and apprehension of death. Fearfulness. Tossing in bed. Whining and lamenting.

Syncope on rising erect. Drowsiness with inability to sleep. Sleeplessness with constant tossing. Pulse hard, full, very much accelerated. General, dry heat. X Internal chilliness, with dry, hot skin and disposition to throw off the coverings. Perspiration of the parts that are covered. Applicable at the very beginning, but only when the moral and febrile symptoms above detailed are pres- ent. Seldom sufficient for the cure of the disease, but indispensable, nevertheless, for the removal or moderation of the fever that may chance to exist. ALUMINA. Sudden, forcible short coughs, sometimes in long paroxysms, excited by urgent tickling in the larynx, and by a feeling of rawness and scraping in the throat; generally without expectoration, sometimes with scanty expectoration, in the morning after long coughing, of mucus mixed with blood.

I have known Alumina afford speedy and permanent relief in the tiresome cough which often accompanies elongated uvula and seems to be excited by the con- tact of the tip of the uvula with the parts about the top of the larynx, and which is often temporarily re- lieved by the local application of astringents (especial- ly the sulphate of alumina and potassa). [c. d.] AMBRA GRISEA. Hooping Cough, coming from deep in the chest, excited by violent tickling in the throat, in rather long parox- ysms ; in the evening, without expectoration ; in the morning, with expectoration, consisting, generally, of grayish-white, seldom of yellow mucus, of a salt or sour taste. 32 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. Aggravations.—Evening and night. In repose and in a warm room, especially where there are many persons present. After lying down and on awaking from sleep. From reading aloud and talking. From warm drinks, especially from warm milk. From keeping late hours, lifting heavy weights, music and in the spring of the year. Concomitants.—Great seriousness, with aversion to talking and Headache in the temples from congestion of the head. Fugitive heat of the face. Offensive odor from the mouth. % Complete loss of thirst. ''Much sour or eructation. Heart-burn. Pressure in the stomach and in the hypochondria. xPain in the region of the spleen, as if something there were torn away ."/Pains in the epigastrium and hypogastrium.

Shortness of breath.^Itching, scratching and soreness in the larynx and trachea.V Itching in the chest, pitch- ing in the thyroid arms and limbs easily go asleep. Fugitive (flashes of) heat with anxiety. This remedy, although not very often applicable, has yet proved itself in spasmodic coughs not only of elder- ly and emaciated persons, for whom it is particularly appropriate, but also, sometimes, of children. Ambra is immediately indicated by abundant eructations accom- panying the cough, a symptom which characterizes also Veratrum and Sulphuric acid—but the former (Vera- trum) is sufficiently distinguished by the vomiting at- tended by cold sweat on the forehead, and the latter (Sulphuric acid) by the cough being increased in the open air. ANACARDIUM—ANGUSTURA. 33 ANACARDIUM ORIENTALE. Hooping Cough which shakes the patient thoroughly; paroxysms, every three to four hours ; excited by tick- ling in the trachea ; at night without expectoration, Stitches in the loins.

Accelerated pulse. Chilliness, with Sweat after the paroxysm. This remedy also, which well deserves a more ex-4 tended proving, has seldom been used. A leading in- dication would seem to be the sensation of coldness in the larynx, although Sulphur has the same symptom, In croup, also, Bromine has not fulfilled the expecta- tions that were entertained of it. BRYONIA ALB. Spasmodic Hooping Cough, as if from vapor of Sul- phur, or excited by tickling in the throat and in the ep- igastrium ; evening and night without expectoration, morning and day time with expectoration of mucus which is yellow or mixed with coagulated, brownish blood, often cold, lias generally an unpleasant flat taste and is at first difficult to dislodge.

This remedy is seldom indicated during true Hoop- ing Cough, but so much the more frequently for the sequelm often met with ; and especially in cases in which Ipecacuanha, Belladonna, or Sulphur was pre- viously indicated. CARBO ANIMALIS—CARBO VEGETAB. 45 CARBO ANIMALIS. Suffocating, hoarse cough, excited by rawness and dryness in the larynx and in the trachea; unattended by expectoration at night, but in the day time accompa- nied by a gray, greenish, sometimes purulent expecto- ration of an offensive, somewhat sour, taste.

It is often suitable after Yeratrum. After it, China or Drosera are often indicated. CAUSTICUM. Unceasing, short hollow cough; excited by a creeping tickling, and by much mucus in the throat, for the most part in the day time without expectoration, at night (though this is sometimes reversed) with de- taching of an acrid, fatty-tasting mucus, which, how- ever, cannot be discharged, but must be swallowed.

Although Cina belongs to the class of remedies which are most important for the Hooping Cough of chil- dren and is frequently employed ; still, nevertheless, it is never, like some other remedies, the almost exclusive remedy in certain epidemics of this disease, but is only indicated in isolated cases, which present its peculiar symptoms, and especially the symptoms of a worm-af- fection. For this reason the chief characteristics of this remedy are to be found in the symptoms which precede and follow the attack. It generally so modifies these symptoms, that Drosera is indicated after it. COCCUS CACTI. Hooping Cough. Suffocative cough with expectora- tion of much tough, white mucus, which accumulates in the chest and throat and is difficult to raise, causing almost strangulation and, from this effort, vomiting of food. The mucus tastes sour. Cough from itching in the chest, back of lower part of the sternum. Aggravations.—During the night, after going to bed ; in the morning in bed while lying in a horizontal posi- tion ; after remaining long in the same position (sitting or lying) ; when entering a heated room after having been in the open cold air ; from smoking tobacco. Concomitant Symptoms.—Vomiting of tough, ropy white mucus and, later, of the food, especially in the morning when trying to expectorate the tough mucus. Great rattling in the chest from quantities of mucus. It racks the system all over when coughing ; the head pains and feels as if it shbuld split. Immoderate ap- petite. [ad. LIPPE, M.

The form of Hooping Cough to which Hepar corre- sponds, and which may easily prove fatal in the space of even a few days, reminds one, in a general way, of the croup of children which is wont to prevail at the same time. It was never observed until within a few years, and happily is not frequently met with. It is always cured by this remedy. The catarrhal cough which sometimes remains as a sequela is met by Bella- donna, or less frequently by Nux vom. HYDROCYANIC ACID. Violent paroxysms of cough ; or frequent cough ex- cited by a prickling irritation which begins in the lar- ynx and extends thence down into the trachea, followed by dryness of the mouth and larynx. Concomitants.—Slow, enfeebled and anxious respi- ration. Much rattling of mucus with the sluggish res- piration. [c. D.] HYOSCYAMUS NIGER. Shattering, spasmodic Hooping Cough, .with frequent, rapidly succeeding coughs ; excited by a tickling as if from mucus firmly seated in the trachea ; at night without, in the day time with expectoration of a some- what saltish mucus, or of a bright red blood mixed with coagula. Aggravations.—At night, especially after midnight. In x-epose. When lying down (relieved by sitting up). During sleep. By cold air. By taking cold. By eating and especially by drinking.

Hyoscyamus, as is well known, is a i*emedy closely allied to Belladonna ; but it is easily distinguished from it by the symptoms just cited. In Hooping Coughs, not only of children but also of adults, it is more frequently indicated than Belladonna^ IGNATIA AMARA. Hollow, spasmodic cough, excited, in the evening, by an irritation in the supra-sternal fossa, as if from vapor of Sulphur or from down, and, in the morning, by a tickling just above the epigastrium ; generally with- out expectoration ; only in the evening, accompanied by scanty and difficult sputa, which taste and smell like the secretions of a chronic catarrh. 68 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS.

The Hooping Cough for which Ignatia is appropriate seldom or never presents itself from the very beginning in the form described ; but generally develops itself, as such, in the course of the disease, under the influence of silent vexation, grief or shame, in which cases this IODIUM. 69 remedy brings so much the more certainly a speedy recovery. Spasmodic cough, excited by intolerable tickling in the larynx and in the supra-sternal fossa ; in the morn- ing without, in the evening with (frequently copious) te- nacious, yellow, or bloody mucous expectoration.

Nevertheless, even in cases in which it has been already given by them, provided always it is exactly indicated, the high potencies of pure Iodine exert an extremely beneficial action. IPECACUANHA. Frequent paroxysms of spasmodic cough, with vio- lent, shattering, hollow coughs, which follow each other in quick succession, and do not admit of the re- covery of the breath ; excited by tickling in the upper part of the larynx, as if produced by vapor of Sulphur ; in the evening without, in the morning with an expecto- ration of light red blood mixed with mucus, of a pu- trid-sweetish taste.

Ipecacuanha, which is most appropriate where, in addition to other peculiarities, gastric disturbances, and a disposition to haemorrhages are prominent, is efficient only in the beginning of the disease, but is rarely sufficient alone to complete the cure. KALI BICH. Short, wheezing, or hard cough, excited by insup- portable tickling in the larynx, or by tickling at the bifurcation of the trachea, or by oppression at the epi- gastrium or by accumulation of mucus in the larynx ; sometimes dry ; generally with expectoration of mucus which is always very tough, and is of a whitish, yel- 72 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. low, greenish or blackish color, and sometimes of a sweet taste.

This remedy, introduced into the Materia Medica chiefly through the labors of Dr. Drysdale, of Liver- pool, has proved of great value not only in certain rare forms x»f membranous croup, but also in a form of chronic bronchitis quite frequently encountered. The tough, viscid, opaque sputa seems to furnish the char- acteristic indication, [c. d.] KALI CARBONICUM. 73 KALI CARBONICUM.

There are some epidemics of Hooping Cough among children by which adults are also attacked—the author has already lived through three such—in which this remedy is indicated in preference to all others, and in which it avails, without the assistance of any other remedy, to cure the entire disease, together with all its accessory symptoms, within the space of eight days at the farthest. KREOSOTUM. Hollow, or whistling, spasmodic cough, excited by roughness, scratching and tickling in the chest and throat, without expectoration. Aggravations.—Morning and evening. By expecto- ration.

Great sleepi- ness and sound sleep. Chilliness. This remedy is far too little used, and hence its pe- culiarities are less known. It will be found of great use not only at the termination of the disease in chil- dren, but also in aged persons and pregnant women. LACHESIS. Frequent paroxysms of hacking spasmodic cough ; excited by tickling in the stomach, rarely also in the larynx ; evening and at night without, morning and in the day with difficult dislodgement of scanty watery, sometimes saltish, mucus which is not expectorated, but is swallowed.

This remedy, which is regarded, perhaps a little un- deservedly, as an almost universal polychrest, has ac- cording to the foregoing symptoms, a pretty limited application in Hooping Cough. Ungovernable spasmodic cough, which seems as if it would burst the thorax, excited by a peculiar tickling in the pharynx, which, again, is induced by a sensation of smothering in the throat. Frequent, dry cough, ex- cited by tickling in the throat, and accompanied by a feeling of constriction in the whole chest. The cough is forcible, concussing the abdomen and head. It is generally a dry cough with burning di'yness in the throat. Concomitants.—Great and distressing constriction of the chest, as if a heavy load were upon it. Constric- tion of the lower part of the thorax, occurring spas- modically, and provoked by a deep inspiration. At- tacks of this kind of dyspnoea occur at night, and com- pel the patient to sit up in bed. [c. n.] LACTUCA VIROSA. LAUROCERASUS.

Although Lauroserasus hardly belongs to this place, still it may not be passed over ; for sometimes in the last stage of the disease, when the expectoration has ceased and paralysis of the lungs is imminent, it affords the means of saving the patient. LEDUM PALUSTRE. Violent, hollow, shattering, spasmodic cough ; ex- cited by tickling in the larynx with suffocating arrest of breathing ; in the evening and until midnight without expectoration, after midnight and in the morning with a purulent expectoration of an offensive odor, and often of a bright colored, frothy blood.

This remedy (which has been used with good re- sults as a domestic remedy for Hooping Cough, in some regions of Germany), has never yet been pre- scribed for it by the author, and must be but rarely applicable. LOBELIA INFLATA. Frequent, short, dry cough, excited by tickling in the larynx, with a sensation of a foreign body in the throat which hinders respiration ; also a violent, rack- ing cough, seeming to come from deep in the chest, in paroxysms of long continuance, followed by profuse expectoration of ropy mucus, which adheres to the pharynx. Aggravations.—Excitement. Exposure to cold. Concomitants.—Excessive dyspnoea. Sensation of weakness and pressure in the epigastrium, rising to the heart.

But among the number Lycopodium occupies a prominent place (next to that of Calcarea, which furnishes symptoms that Lycopodium lacks, and which is therefore so often beneficial, either before or after Lycopodium), and is therefore frequently applicable in this malady. THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. MAGNESIA CARBONICA.* Spasmodic cough, excited by tickling in the larynx, in the trachea, and in the thyroid region ; in the even- ing and at night without, in the morning and during the day with expectoration of a yellow, thin but tenacious mucus, or of dark blood, of a somewhat saltish taste.

This remedy, which, as a general thing, is very suit- able to the period of childhood, seems to have been perhaps undeservedly little used in this disease. It has not unfrcquently done good service in it, in the hands of the author. MAGNESIA MURIAT. Attacks of spasmodic cough, excited by tickling in the throat ; in the evening and at night without, during the day with a watery, but tenacious, yellowish, some- times purulent expectoration of mucus mixed with clots of blood, of a fatty taste and offensive odor.

It can hardly be indi- cated, except in the last stage of this disease, when 86 the expectoration has absolutely ceased. It stands next to Ipecacuanha. THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. MURIATIC ACIDUM. Violent attacks of Hooping Cough, excited by tick- ling in the chest ; in the afternoon and evening without, in the morning with a slight dislodgment of yellow or watery, crude mucus, of a fatty taste, which has to be swallowed and is not expectorated ; sometimes also with expectoration of dark blood.

The rare cases in which this remedy is indicated and NATRUM MURIAT. 87 which are among the most malignant cases in the last stage, may be easily recognized from the foregoing symptoms, several of which are quite peculiar and scarcely to be found under any other remedy. NATRUM MURIAT. Spasmodic Hooping Cough, excited by tickling in the throat and in the epigastrium ; in the evening without, in the morning with expectoration of a yellow mucus, often streaked with blood, generally with a flat, some- times a sourish, more rarely a saltish taste.

Heat, always accompanied by the most violent headaches. Natrum muriat. which is especially characterized by its peculiar headache, which increases during the heat until it becomes intolerable, and by a few other symp- toms, is often applicable in Hooping Coughs in both young and old subjects, especially at seasons in which the intermittent fevers which prevail likewise require this remedy. NITRIC ACID. Shattering, barking spasmodic Cough, excited by a tickling in the larynx and in the epigastrium ; in the evening and night without, in the morning and day time with expectoration of dark blood mixed with coagula, or of a yellow, acrid pus, of a bitter, sourish, or salt taste and an offensive odor.

Unrefreshing sleep early in the morning. Chill, alternating with heat. Morning sweats which give relief. Hooping Cough in children often begins like an or- dinary catarrhal cough, and in such cases we fre- quently succeed with this remedy, if the symptoms ex- actly correspond in other respects, in cutting short the entire disease in its first stage, and in thus effecting a complete cure in a few days. This is never the case, however, when the Hooping Cough has already become fully developed. PHOSPHORUS. Hollow, hacking, spasmodic, tickling cough, excited particularly by a tickling itching in the chest ; in the evening and at night without, in the morning and by day with expectoration of a tough whitish mucus, ap- pearing as if mixed with dust, or of a yellow, pus-like or rust colored, often cold mucus, of a sour, salt or sweetish taste ; or else of bright red, frothy blood. Aggravations.—Evening and night.—From motion ; sitting and lying ; lying upon the back or upon the left side ; cold open air ; eating and drinking ; laughing, talking or reading aloud ; singing ; weeping (in case of children) ; strong odors ; change of weather ; the air before a thunder-storm. 4 Concomitants.—Anxiety in the chest.

This remedy, the action of which is similar to that of Phosph.,—-but is easily distinguishable from it by the symptoms * quoted,—is still more rarely employed than Phosph., and only towards the end of the disease. e These differences afford the clearest proof that, contrary to the laws of Chemistry, no Phosphoric acid is produced by the tritura- tion of Phosphorus with Sugar of Milk, for three hours, which takes place in preparing the triturations. 94 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. PULSATILLA. Shattering, spasmodic Hooping Cough, often in pa- roxysms of two coughs each ; excited by an itching scratching with a feeling of dryness and, as it were, of vapor of Sulphur in the trachea and in the chest; in the evening and night without, in the morning and day time with expectoration of much yellow or greenish mucus of various taste (repulsive, bitter, empyreuma- tic, flat, putrid, fatty, salt, sour, like the secretion of an old catarrh, or like tobacco juice) ; often also of dark, clotted blood.

The two sister remedies, Bry. and Rhus., are essen- tially distinguished, as is well known, by the aggra- vation of their symptoms, respectively, during motion and repose, by warmth and by cold ; and this charac- ter holds good also with respect to their cough, except that, for both, the time of day is the same. In gen- eral, what has been S5>;d of Bry. may be said also of Rhus. RUMEX CRISPUS—SABADILLA. 97 RUMEX CRISPUS. Dry, hacking, incessant, very fatiguing cough ; excit- ed by a tickling in the supra-sternal fossa, which subse- quently extends downward to the middle of sternum, or by a sensation as if a feather, or an awn of barley were fast by one end in one of the bronchi and were sway- ing to and fro with the respiration, causing a tickling which provokes the cough. Aggravations.—In the evening after lying down, be- fore midnight.—The cough is provoked and aggravated by touching and pressing the trachea in the supra- sternal fossa and by the inhalation of cool air. This aggravation is so marked that the patient, after going to bed, often covers the head with the bed clothes in order to avoid inhaling the cool air of the bed room, and only by this method of inhaling warm air are the distressing tickling and the fatiguing cough which it provokes allayed. Concomitants.—Fluent coryza. Voice uncertain. Hoarseness. Stitches in the upper part of the left lung. This remedy, for which we are indebted to the late Dr. Joslin, of New York, has proved of the utmost value, for several years past, in spasmodic coughs presenting the above symptoms, whether they occurred independently or in connection with other diseases, [c. d.] SABADILLA. Short asthmatic tickle-cough ; excited by a feeling of roughness and scraping in the throat ; at night without, in the day time with expectoration of tenacious, yellowish mucus, of a repulsive sweet taste ; or else of bright red blood. 98 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS.

Sabadilla is a remedy which often corresponds to the first stage, especially for children and persons who suffer from worms (and vermin). In fully developed cases of Hooping Cough it is no longer of use. SAMBUCUS NIGRA. 99 SAMBUCUS NIGRA. Suffocating, hollow, deep Hooping Cough, excited by spasm of the chest ; at night vrithout, in the day time with a scanty, tenacious mucous expectoration of a sweetish-putrid or a somewhat saltish taste.

Fortu- nately, such cases are not frequent, although they are quickly and easily cured, when the characteristic symptoms, especially those of the dry heat and the sweat exactly correspond. SANGUINARIA CANADENSIS. Cough, slight, but frequent and fatiguing, at even- ing after lying down, excited by tickling in the throat; or dry cough awaking one from sleep and not ceasing until the patient sits up in bed and discharges flatus up and down ; or continued severe, dry cough with pain in the breast. Aggravations.—Evening and night. Concomitants.—Dryness in the throat and sensation of swelling in the larynx. Much dyspnoea, especially in the afternoon.

In the paroxysm, the coughs follow each other rapidly. The cough is excited by a tickling in the lar- ynx, as if caused, by down ; in the evening and at night without expectoration, in the morning and during the day with expectoration of dark blood, or of yellow, greenish, purulent, often cold, or milk-white watery mucus, of, eommonly, a sourish, or a putrid-flat or a SULPHUR. 113 saltish taste, or like the offensive discharge of an old catarrh.

This godlike * remedy is frequently applicable in the most dangerous forms of spasmodic and Hooping Cough, as it is in many other serious maladies, and this, not only in cases in which the correspondence of the symptoms shows it to be more specifically indi- cated than other remedies, but also, as an intercurrent remedy, in cases in which a previous remedy, although carefully selected, fails to act and in which some for- eign controlling influence (Psora) requires to be sub- dued, in order to afford to the previous remedy free scope for the development of its power. Every expe- rienced Homoeopathist knows how effectually such an THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. ® Tn philological as well as medicinal relations, Sulphur, in pref- erence to ether remedies, deserves the epithet “ godlike.’7 It is well known that in the Greek “ To d'eiov ” meant not only “ Sul- phur” but also “ the godlike;” and even Homer (Odyss. xxii. 481,) calls it the remedy of the bad (Kaxcovaxos) thus bringing diseases within its province. SULPHURIC ACID. 115 intercurrent dose of Sulph. often hastens the cure, and how it frequently renders a favorable issue possible when the best selected remedy has altogether failed to affect the case, even though there exists in the pa- tient no very marked, general unsusceptibility to the action of remedies. SULPHURIC ACID. Paroxysms of asthmatic Hooping Cough • excited by an irritation in the chest ; in the evening without, in the morning with expectoration of dark blood, or of a thin, yellowish, sometimes blood-streaked mucus which generally tastes sour, but often also salt or sweetish. Aggravations.—Evening until midnight, and fore- noon.—Open air. Cold. Damp cold weather. Motion. Walking in the open air. Running. Riding on horse back. Talking. Waking and rising from the be*d.

Dyspnoea. 116 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. Tightness of the chest. Stitches in the chest and in the region of the heart. Palpitation of the heart. Pressing pains in various parts, which slowly increase in severity and then suddenly vanish. Short sleep. Fugitive heat with sweat in paroxysms. Cold sweat immediately after eating warm food. The indication for Sulph. acid is much more circum- scribed than that for Sulph. It is very suitable, how- ever, for the female sex, especially in the climacteric years. The aggravation of the majority of the symp- toms by the smell (not by the use) of coffee and the pains which suddenly vanish, furnish indications of the first importance and which scarcely ever deceive. VERATRUM ALBUM. Paroxysms of deep, hollow ringing Hooping Cough, excited by a tickling down in the lowest branches of the bronchi, seeming as if it came from the abdomen ; at night without, in the daytime unth expectoration of yellow, tenacious mucus of a bitter or saltish, some- times also a sour or putrid taste.

Veratr. is one of those remedies which most frequent- ly require to be selected in treating Epidemic Hoop- ing Cough, which begins with violence especially in the spring (and autumn). It is easier to recognize, from the accompanying symptoms, the indication for this, than for many other remedies. Where it does not bring about a complete cure, the symptoms are 118 THE REMEDIES AND THEIR SYMPTOMS. generally modified in such a way as that either Cupr. or Carbo. veg., or sometimes also Sulph., removes the remainder of the disease. VERBASCUM THAPSUS. Frequent paroxysms of a deep, hollow, hoarse cough with a trumpet tone ; excited by tickling in the tra- chea and in the chest ; without expectoration day or night. Aggravations.—Evening and night.—Repose. Lying in bed. After lying down. During sleep. From talk- ing. Reading aloud. Inspiration. Change of tem- perature.

ZINCUM METALLICUM. 119 Although Verb, is not strictly a Hooping Cough rem- edy, nevertheless, in cases where the symptoms exactly correspond, we sometimes succeed in cutting short the disease in the first (catarrhal) stage by the admin- istration of this remedy. It should not therefore be passed over without notice. ZINCUM METALLICUM. Exhausting, spasmodic cough ; excited by a tick- ling in the larynx and in the trachea as far down as the middle of the chest; in the evening and at night without expectoration, in the morning and during the day with, expectoration, of a yellow, purulent, blood- streaked, tenacious mucus having a repulsive, sweetish putrid, or metallic taste, or of bright blood. Aggravations.—Afternoon and evening until mid- night.—After eating. After becoming heated by active motion. Repose. Sitting. Standing. Ascend- ing. Laughing. Washing. Damp cold weather. Spirituous drinks. Milk. Sugar and sweetmeats. During the menses. Concomitants.—Moroseness in the evening. Variable humor : in the morning buoyant, in the evening sad. Soreness in the head.

The best indications for its administration seem to be the fol- lowing :—In the case of children, the patients, as soon as they begin to cough, grasp the genital organs with their hands ;—in the case of adults, the patients are plagued with large varicose veins which sometimes burst and bleed.
