HOW TO CURE THE SICK



This is one of the reasons why the number of homoeopathic doctors is so small. Apart from this, the practice of Homoeopathy depends on the existence of good homoeopathic chemists, and it is quite impossible for homoeopathic chemists to make a living by selling a few dozen pills or powders a day or a week. In the olden days, when low potencies were used and people were told to use low potencies, there were more than one hundred homoeopathic chemists in England alone. Now there are only about a dozen.
