Evidently the first prescription was a shot in the dark but I have reported this case in great detail for its crying need of having the door open and its marvellous responses in the face of overwork and bad domestic situations. To see the emotional balance and the calm ability to meet problems is a joy to any physician.

NOTICE.
Homoeopathic physicians are urged to provide for the preservation of their homoeopathic libraries, many volumes of which are out of print and practically unobtainable. The Board of Trustees of the American Foundation for Homoeopathy suggests that homoeopathic physicians bequeath such libraries to the Foundation, making provision in their wills not only for the bequest itself but for the cost of transporting the libraries to the Foundation headquarters.
Homoeopathic physicians are also urged to make provision, in the same way, for the preservation of their potentized remedies, provided the remedies are of known and dependable source and have been well cared for.
