Appendix



For example, sulphur may be taken in gram doses in food and will not give the action that the smallest masses of sulphur can produce if these are given in proper forms and division. Different preparations will, of course, react differently. The increased results claimed repeatedly from a combination of two medicines is wholly intelligible from the standpoint of colloidal teaching.

If I have arrived, on the basis of my colloidal experience, at the result that there is a healthy kernel within Homoeopathic observation, I want to have it plainly understood that I do not know anything of Homoeopathic literature, nor do I know but most superficially anything about the curative results, but it certainly seems clear that the smallest amount of a medicine from the physical and chemical grounds must exert many and big actions and that such actions, in numerous cases, are opposite to those produced by larger masses, and again, it is certain it is not the quantity of a medicine but the degree of its division that determines its action.
