MOSLKR, PROFRSSOR AT THE UNIVERSITY OF GRKIFaWALD. Epitomo of an artiole of the " Berliner kil> I nischen Wochonschrift" No. 21,1879, a medical periodical, published at Berlin, with referenoes to -inhalations of tho Kxtrjict Eucalypti! Folis (Sander and Sonß' Kxtraot Kucalyptus) In I casea of dipthcria, by Dr. F. Moaler, professor a tho University of Grcifswald, Germany, viz.: "Having experienced tho advantages derived from inhalations of the Extract Eocalvptib if Folii in csnes of cchinococcen of the lungs with i bronchial affections, I made u;> my mind to tr c the same remedy in cases of Diphtheria. D 1 t alcnz, a pnpi' of mine, has since, in his diseora v tlon, reported tho particulars of tho cases y treated, and I may bo allowed briefly to refer to ft one of the cases enumerated therein. j Ida X., of Pa°ewalk, twenty years of age, had if on the 19th February, 1879, a fit of chilling rovor |. with violent pains in her throttt. She called d upon a medical practitioner, who, recognizing s at once the case to ba ono of diphthoritia, made s her enter my klinik, where I had to separata c her from the other patient 3. The patient, well developsd for her age, was complaining of pains a in her throat, which grow worec when Bheen e deavourcd to swallow, speak, or move tho neck. h Tho submaxillar and eubmental glands were much swollen, and tho fever was of a remitting nature. The condition of the patient was on the 22nd of February: Warmth=3o.4 C, pulse=Uo r spiration=2o. Prescription : Extract euc. c. follis to be inhaled for twenty minutes c? cry hour. The following day the patioot throw out 2 small particles of exsudat. The local appear ances in tho pharynx grow worse, ana tho exsudats wero more extended over the mucous C aicmbrano. That increase of symptoms caused w me to augment the dose to one tea ,t spoonful of extract euc. used for inhala „ tion ; also ihe inhalations wero continued during the night. On the 27th patient got better and the fever had subsided. On examining the pharynx it was easily to ba noticed that the pro cess ot diphtheritis gave way, and on tho 11th of March the patient was Restored to health and discharged. Tbo reuort in question says that the Eucalypti Extract in all cases of d iphtherities proved successful; it also ssts forui cases of laryngitis and bronchifs, chronic*, pneumonia, crouposa dext'a, kc tc pharyngitis, combined with larvnidtis, treated succsEsfully with the !•- Kuculypti Extract. (Those diseases constitute nearly all tho afloc tlons of tho throat and respiratory organs, mostly caused by neglected colds) \ The above reported cure of diphtheria, a di ■ ) sease which is always attendod by fever, proves ' tho efficacy of our Extract Eucalyp'us in all cases of fever, and as it at tlie eamo time disin ,O|. fects all wound", and checks Inflammation, it ',"„ will baa positive cure of nearly all diseases. chiefly, FOyers, Rheumatism, Colds, Wounds of all kinds, Sprains, Bruises, Etc. ■■■' M _ d \ r.
