A thick and-flabby tongue, showing indentations from pressure of teeth, indicates gastric and nervous irritation. A sham and pointed tongue is often observed in irritation and inflammation of the brain. A bright red tongue indicates inflammation of gastric or intestinal mucous membrane. A clean red tongue, with papilla prominent, or a white coated tongue, with papilla projecting through the fur, indi cate scarlatina.

Excerpt from Therapeutic Key, or Practical Guide for the Homeopathic Treatment of Acute Diseases HE preface to this little volume may be written in a few words. It first made its appearance in 1871, and now, in the autumn of 1876, has reached its Third Edition. During this brief period over five thousand copies have been distributed among the members of the Profession. A new edition is again called for, in order to correct and improve the work before again committing it to the press; and to this end we have labored to replace all doubtful by new and more cer tain materials, and to so blend and incorporate the additions as not to materially increase its size. This has been accomplished, in a great part, by increasing the length of the pages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Therapeutic Key, or Practical Guide for the Homoeopathic Treatment of Diseases in General The symptoms detailed throughout the work are marked according to their estimated value. The asterisks rep resent characteristic symptoms, or key-notes. Those in italics represent similar symptoms, but of a less prominent character; while those left without a sign, correspond to a third degree of distinction. The remedies placed in brackets at the end of the given symptoms, signify that they are indicated by similar symptoms. It will be apparent from an examination of the work, that a good deal of labor has been bestowed upon it, in order to bring it to its present state. But the favor with which it has been received by the Profession, leads me to hope that in this, my last attempt, the labor has not been spent in vain.

Excerpt from Therapeutic Key, or Practical Guide for the Homoeopathic Treatment of Acute Diseases For convenience, it is desirable that a book of this kind should be made to occupy as little Space as pos sible, and for this reason I have considered only acute diseases, or that class requiring prompt treatment, and which does not admit of time to consult larger works at the office. A chapter, however, has been devoted to the treatment of Poisoning, and also one on Ap parent Death from Drowning, &c., which will be found of great practical importance to the junior, as well as to the older members of the Profession.

Excerpt from Rational Therapy As a teacher of graduates, I have been impressed with the dissatisfaction existing with the state of Therapeutics, which appears to most physicians chaotic. I have tried in this book to give a guide in the treatment of the sick by emphasizing that blood alone cures, and that all methods used to treat disease must serve to purify it, and bring it where it is needed. I have discussed the various therapeutic methods with this idea in View and have given the essentials of each, enough I believe, for immediate use, and to serve as an introduction to special works, which the book is not intended to replace. To accomplish this, each chapter had to be short, an outline only of the vast material it represents. This applies especially to the one on drugs, almost sketchy in character, yet like the others, contain ing the essentials of this method of treatment. It has been my aim to make this book useful for every day practice. The healing force of Nature has been explained in the Intro duction. The chapter on Fresh Air contains an outline of the treatment with Air Bath, Sun Bath and Climate. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
