The Loudon Lttncct, an excellent author
ity, says: A few years ago, when diph
theria was. raging in England, a
gentleman accompanied the celebrated
Dr. Field on his rounds to witness the so
called wonderful cures which he perform
ed, while the patients of others were drop
ping on all sides. All he took with him
was powder of sulphur and a quill, and
with these he cured every patient, without
exception; that is. he put a teaspoonful of
flour of brimstone into a wine glassful of
water and stirred it with his fiuger instead
of using a spoon, as sulphur does not read
ily amalgamate with water, and, on the
sulphur becoming well mixed, he gave it
as a gargle, and in ten minutes the patient
was out of danger, as sulphur kills every
species of fuming in man, beast and plant
in a few minutes. Instead of spitting out
the gargle he recommended swallowing it.
and. in extreme cases, where he was called
just In the neck of time, when the fungus
was too nearly closing to allow the garg
ling, he blew the sulphur through a quill
into the throat and after the fungus had
shrunk to allow of it, then the gargling.
He never lost a patient from diphtheria.
Or, if the patient cannot gargle, take a
live coal, put it on a shovel, and sprinkle
snooful or two at a time on the coal, let
I the sufferer inhale it, holding the head
over it, and the fungus will die.
