I'm 1886 cholera visited Vienna a second
time. At that time the practice of home
opathy was forbidden In Austria. but. bv
permission. a homeopathic hospital for
cholera patients was opened, wherein re-
suits were so favorable that the law for
bidding the practice OF homeopathy ia
Austria was repealed. OF the treatment in
this hospital two-rhirds of all cases recov-

pathio physician of Edinburgh, on a visit to
Vienna In 1896. wrote TO Sir John Forbes:
During the first appearance Of cholera
here, the practice OF homeopathy was first
introduced and cholera when it came again
renewed the favorable impulse previously
given, as il was through DR.. Fleishmann's
successful treatment Of this disease that the
restrictive laws were removed and homeo-
pathics obtained leave to practice and dis

government officers, can hope TO make his

mortality rate of about "a per cent while
in the other wards and hospitals, under

In 1854, in Great Britain, the medical
council appointed by parliament tried to
suppress the returns made by DR.. McLaugh-
lin, an eminent allopathic physician, who
was the government inspector Of cholera
hospitals. When the completed report was
made it was found that the mortality from
cholera in the homeopathic hospital in
London was little over 16 per cent, while
under allopathio treatment the mortality
reached over SO per cent The endeavor to
suppress facts because in favor of homeo-

Let 1t suffice now to add that a very
careful examination of reports in all cpl
denies proves the undeniable fact that in
cholera the homeopathic have saved 81 In
100 cases, while the allopaths never saved
more than 68 in 100 cases.

''We must not be less assiduous than our
old school brethren, in studying the causes
and pathology of cholera. Nor must we
neglect, as Hahnemann did not, preventive
measures and hygienic rules. We must not
stand IN the way o. the authorities In their
efforts to shut cholera out OF the country
nor fail to use disinfectants and Rermicides
outside of the living human body. The de-
struction OF the miasm, the microbes, OF the
comma bacillus, by chemical agents OF ex-
cessve heat outside of the body is one
thing, and a correct thing, but woe betide

living human organism by such agents
