Preface:

In the current vernacular no man "Knows it All" in medicine, be he a follower of the rule of opposites in therapeutics, of similars, of experience, or of any other school or system. On the other hand, nearly every practitioner has some useful measure that is not to be found in the textbooks. For over thirty years the compiler of this little book has had editorial charge of the Publishing house of Boericke & Tafel; he has had the run of many medical journals and books, and also has met many physicians during that time. Also in this period much of what might be termed the flotsam and jetsam of therapeutics drifted into view and then away into oblivion. Finally the idea dawned that it might be useful to collect this matter, collect it from all quarters, from any one who believed in his measure, from books, "Transactions", and journals. This little book is the result.

Doubtless in the matter herein presented there is some of it that is foolish or worthless, a little that appears fantastic, but there is also pure gold that may aid many a bothered physician.
