Some months ago was called to attend lady
of Williamsburg, n. Y, who had long been suf-
fering from troublesome uterine disease. Its
presence was marked by constant vaginal DIS
charge, something Of a watery consistency and
sometimes creamy and muco-purulent. She had
been under other treatment tor some time, but
constantly grew worse. Vaginal examination
disclosed extensive induration and liberation of
the cervix uteri. The uterine Inflammation which
was evidently assuming chronic form, was also
aggravated by long standing constipation, palpi-
tation of the heart, night sweats, cough, poor ap
petite, and almost daily Paintings. She tainted
to entire insensibility during one of my visits. I
commenced, of course, by such active local treat
ment as the liberation demanded and then ap-
piled myself to recuperation of the general
health. 1t was inconvenient to see her frequent

some time before become acquainted with its
properties, and knew of nothing more safe or sat

completely justified my expectation. In less
than fortnight the bowels had become free and
regular in their movements, the night sweats dis
appeared, and appetite began to grow. The
fainting spells became less frequent, and soon
ceased altogether. In another fortnight there
was no more cough, the vaginal discharge was
sensibly diminishing, sleep was normal and re-
freshing, and the general health decidedly i'm
proved. w hat remains is soon told. The patient

age-and such strength. She wouldn't try to
