Passiflora Incarnata.

In the December number of the News, Dr. J. A. Hemming tells what he has used Passiflora for (Sleeplessness). I have used it for the same disease for the last three years with the grandest success; also for convulsions of children due to any cause; also for all complaints arising from teething; even to diarrhoea is benefitted as by magic. All nervous diseases of the bladder in adults, frequency of urinating, or coming away drop by drop, with burning or any spasmodic action of the bladder or rectum, where Bell or Nux should be indicated. I found one-half to one teaspoonful of Passiflora O given every thirty minutes, for a few doses, and then once in two hours or three times a day, acts like magic. It controls restlessness of nervous people better than anything I ever used. W. H. FISHER.

LeSueur, Minn.

Passiflora in Deiirium Tremens,

"In delirium tremens and in the insomnia following the excessive use of alcoholic stimulents it (Pasilora) acts like a charm. It should be given in full doses, say one teaspoonful every two hours, until the desired result is obtained. It is valuable in fretful, teething children, use it both internally and as a local application to the swollen gums. My colleague, Dr. Brewer, uses it in spasmodic incontinence of arine, especially in those cases where the patient is very nervous and complains of a burning sensation when the urine is voided. He also commends it very highly in the treatment of cerebro-spinal meningitis." DR. H. M. HENNEL, in Ec. Medical Journal.

Passiflora Incarnata in Insomnia-Spasms.

From a paper, read before the Chicago Academy of Medicine and published in the Medical Era of December, 1892, we extract the following concerning Passiflora:

"It is a neurotic, anti-spasmodic, soporific, anodyne and sedative. It has special action on the ganglionic cells of the gray matter of the cord.

"It exerts a special influence over the ganglia of

the thorax, pelvis and abdominal regions and gener ally quiets the excitement of the medulla oblongata, "In insomnia it acts like a charm, without any unpleasant after-effects. It is valuable in neuroses, and reliable in tonic spasms which are present in a great number of cases of spinal meningitis, and it will prevent chronic spasms.

"In the nervous affections following congestion of the cord and ganglionic centers, it produces & quieting effect not produced by any other remedies, in the rapid, irregular respiration, due to irritation of the medulla. It is a specific in pains of the heart, when there is a great fear of immediate dissolution and constant fear of death, with an irregular pulse.

"In the irregular pains of pregnancy its action

is sure.

"In dismenorrhoea its action is decisive and pleasing, tiding the patient over the menstrual period with comfort.

"In facial neuralgia and neuralgia of the fifth pair of nerves, it is very useful.

"In insomnia from over-indulgence in alcoholic beverages it acts like a charm, given in full doseS every hour until rest is produced. It relieves innervation of the nerve centres-sympathetic innervation, especially so in epilepsy, given at night when nightly attacks occur.

"In enlarged prostate, through its action upon the ganglia of the pelvis, it exerts a special action.

In spasms of children you will be more than pleased with this remedy.

"In the middle stages of typhoid fever, in the initial stages of scarlet fever, where the great restlessness of the patient is so trying to the physician and friends.

"I have here presented quite a number of different manifestations in which the remedy is indicated, all depending in a greater or less degree upon the same conditions. They are only given as pointers, as it were, showing the large number of different manifestations, depending upon the same parts at fault in which it is admissible by its action upon these certain parts of the nervous system, by either not performing their functions or from an over action."

MESSES. B. KEITH & CO.,

BARNESVILLE, GA.

Gentlemen:-The con. tinc. avena sativa has been more successful in the treatment of the opium habit than anything I have ever tried, and I have tried various other remedies, among them the advertised nostrums. J. C. HALLOWAY, M. D. ADAMSVILLE, O.

MESSRS. B. KEITH & CO., Gentlemen:-G. M., aged 33 years, Merchant, had circumscribed peritonitis and thickening for some time. On account of pain and tenderness, his physician prescribed morphine in small doses, but he used it afterwards, of his own accord, until the habit was established. He tried hard to break off, but he would always be taken with great prostration and irritation of the stomach. vomit everything he took and would get down, and finally in about thirty-six hours would take morphine again, and in a short time feel all right. While under its influence he commenced to take whisky and beer to keep from the morphine. He also tried different doctors, but all the same. When I was consulted he would take stimulants and then increase the morphine to keep off big head (as he called it), taking one drachm of morphine every two days. He was miserable, and when trying to quit it said if the suffering and agony of hell was as bad he wanted to steer clear of the place. I tried valerian, and nearly all nerve tonics and nerve stimulants, and to diminish the dose of morphine, but all did no good. I then told him of the avena sativa about which I had read, and he said if he could quit without so much suffering he would, if not, he could not bear the agony, and would take it and die as soon as possible. Tobtained the avena and prescribed it in fifteen drop doses whenever he felt the need of morphine which was four times a day; and for two nights I gave him about a one-fourth grain of morphia, when he said he could do without it he did not suffer any more. Thus he left off taking morphine, and has never taken another dose of it. The first night without morphine he slept reasonably well, and each succeeding night better, until five nights, when he slept well; then I gave him only three doses of the avena for three days, then two doses for three days, then only one dose in the evening for one week. All this time he rested very well, said his suffering was nothing to what he had expected, and that any one could go through it with half grit. [His own language.] Since then he has taken neither avena nor morphine, and is now well and has no desire for any stimulant, and says that "he would not have the habit for the world." He has gained thirty pounds, namely, he has now his original weight. He never was an intemperate man until the morphine was prescribed for him by a physician, through which he was ruined, losing nearly all his property and a great deal of self-respect. He had never been without morphine for more than thirtysix to forty hours since he had contracted the habit, namely, during three years. A. L. JACKSON, M. D.
