^.  7//  7   "-<■?.   /
Entered according to Act of Congress, in the office of Librarian
   of Congress, at Washington, in the year of our Lord 1881, by
   Halsey Bros. 
   My motive for publishing this little book is  to help
 students of Materia  Medica, by selecting a few of the
 most characteristic  symptoms of the more prominent
 remedies.
   In my own experience and practice, I  am free to say,
 this plan of  committing  to memory such as  may be
 called "key-note'" symptoms, and associating them in
 my mind with  the medicines to which they belong, has
 been the chief  source of such success as I may have had
 in curing the sick.
   The students in the college class are required  to thus
 commit them;  and as a result it is rare that a majority
 of each  graduating  class does not promptly select the
 right remedy for a given case in the  medical clinic.
   The possession, in  a  useful shape in their  minds, of
 thus much  positive and valuable knowledge gives them
 a good start and needed courage.
  A very large  proportion of  the symptoms herein given
 I have myself  verified.  The remainder are  given on
good authority.  No  claim is made  of originality, not
even of expression.   I have  given the symptoms  very
often in  the language of the authors from whose works
they have been selected.
