You'll be telling me she has consumption, or dyspepsia, or some such disease that don't exist: mere allopathic inventions, symptoms, sir, symptoms." "You attended her poor father, Captain Digby, when he was taken ill in the coach with you. He is dead, and his child is an orphan." "Orphan! nothing for orphans, especially if inconsolable, like aconite and chamomilla."

Alas, 'pulvis et umbra sumus! I could learn no tidings of you. Prickett's successor declared he knew nothing about you. I hoped the best; for I always fancied you were one who would fall on your legs, bilious-nervous temperament; such are the men who succeed in their undertakings, especially if they take a spoonful of chamomilla whenever they are over-excited.

They injure the stomach and health of the child, instead of benefiting it. REMEDIES. A few tablespoonfuls of hot water will often allay a severe attack of the colic. Catnip tea is also a good remedy. A drop of essence of peppermint in 6 or 7 teaspoonfuls of hot water will give relief. If the stools are green and the child is very restless, give chamomilla.
