HOMOEOPATHS IN COUNCIL, Meeting of the Socioty Last Night. The Homaopathie Climeal society of this city mei last evening in the parlors of the Millard hotel and passed some de- lightful hours in the discussion of medi- caltopics. There were present Drs. O. S. Wood, president; C. M. Dinsmoor Emma J. Daniets, G. W. Willinms, C. G, Sprague, Amelin Burronghs, G. H. Par sell, A. W. Hartupee and E. 'T'. Allen. The paper of the evening, presented by Dr. Daniels, on the subject of “‘pnou- monia,” exhibited much study and a fine appreciation of the rare delicate points of dingnosis. The treatmeut by homa c remeqlies was proven to' the sitis- action of the hearers of the paper to be the most successful yet disoovered. Dr. Allen raised the question of a specific charactor of the disease. Dr. Wilhiams thought 1t not at all con- tagious. Jr. Hartupee related several cases treated allopathically which died and others of 1 much more serious nature which, under the school treatment, re- covered. Dr. Dinsmoor declared pneumonia to be meither contagious, infections nor specific, but 18 due to blood being driven from the penthery to the lungs, and hence the treatment must be directed to restoring the- normal circula- tion by poulticmg and this method proves thoronghly satisfactory Dr. Parsell believed in aahering closely to the similimum and ventilation. Dr. Sprague thought that in hypos congoestion a ‘‘faxseed jacket”’ benefic but in pneamonia notha, where paralysi and collapse of sr cells are threatened it is not advisabie. In typhoid condition, when the cells are becoming accluded and respiration is rapid Dr. Williama would apply. a cold jacket, on the principle that the sce- o;(x_dnry effect is to cause congestion to skin. Dr. Burroughs advised hot application to_the chest, and to have 1t kept on. Dr. Parsons spoke of his ariny oxperi- ence. He uses verat. ver. homaapathic ally. Dr. Wood believed in individualizing his cases. Often used cold water com- presses, sometimes hot; room at seventy degrees and plenty of air. Jrs. Hanchett “and Parsons were se lected to present subjects at the next meeting.
