Rising up into the throat, lasting for about an hour. Sensation of tightness in the throat \nwith a disposition to attempt to relieve it by swallowing. \nRespiration as if greatly fatigued.

She was chlorotic, \nhad a dry. hack ing cough with frequent pulse, made still more frequent by any excitement, headache, poor \nsleep, constipation. The abdomen had been gradually enlarging for six months and tapping had been decided \nupon when Senec. lx was given. All symptoms rapidly cleared up and the menses returned within a short time. \nSenec. lx also cured a girl, 21, who had suppression of urine in addition to chlorosis, ascites and suppressed \nmenses. \nS. H. Talcott reported an important case bearin g on the same point. Mrs. X., 26, a mother of two children. \nBefore confinement, the patient was haunted with the idea that her child would be stillborn.  \nNine days after its birth, strong andhealthy, she was admitted to hospital in a state of violent acute mania, \nwhich continued with high temperature, for three months, with great physical activity.  \nThe mental state was that of a wild, violent and almost uncontrollable person. There was severe pain in the \nhead, great nervous irritability and sleeplessness and hysterical weakness. \nThese symptoms, coupled with the fact (now first ascertained) that the lochia had ceased suddenly after \nconfinement and the menses had not come on, led to the choice of Senec., which was given in drop doses of \nthe 3x every two hours. \nSteady improvement resulted and after a few weeks the patient was allowed out on parole. A relapse followed \nand Bell, did no good. Senec. was again given with good effect and complete recovery took place.  \nTalcott remarked that recovery from \npuerperal mania seldom occurs unless menstruation is re-established.

Pale, weak, nervous, slight cough, generally at night.  \nSenec., 5 drops, was given three times a day until the next period, which came on at the twenty-ninth day and \nwas perfectly normal in quantity and without pain. \nHale said he also found Senec. useful in advanced stages of gonorrhea and in pros tatic disorders. \nSmall, who proved Senec., recorded the case of a woman, 30, who had been ill six weeks, the symptoms \nsteadily increasing until the following picture was presented: face bloated, abdomen enlarged, feet edematous, \n \n \nurine alternately profuse and watery or dark and scanty, frequent desire to urinate day and night. Senec., 10 \ndrops, three times a day, cured quickly. \nSmall remarked that he has found Senec. useful in the dysuria of women and children when evidently of \ncatarrhal origin and in dysuria with uterine displacement. Mucus sediment in the urine is an indication. But the \nbenefits of Senec. are not confined to the female sex. \nSmall related the case of a man, 50, nervo - sanguine, subject of kidney inflammation affecting right kidney \ngenerally, causing intense pain, fever, prostration.
