There's nothing like another man to knock the first one out of a woman's head. It's cure by homeopathy." Penelope smiled dubiously. "It's a bit of bad luck on the second man, isn't it if he's nice? You know, Nan is rather fatal to the peace of the male mind." "Oh, the man I'm thinking of has himself well in hand. He's a novelist and finds safety in numbers. His mother was French."
Besides, when I am at all disordered, I immediately send for the doctor. There are books proposing that we all become our own medical attendant. Whenever we are seized with any sort of physical disorder, we are to take down some volume in homeopathy, allopathy, hydropathy, and running our finger along the index, alight upon the malady that may be afflicting us.
Harriet Beecher Stowe and the Autocrat clashed upon homeopathy, and it required all the tact of the host to lure them away from the dangerous theme. As it was, a battle waged in the courteous forms of Fontenoy, went on pretty well through the dinner, and it was only over the coffee that a truce was called.
Do you suppose you could learn a boy carpenterin' by settin' him down to read books on sawin' boards and a-lekshurin' him on drivin' nails? No more can you make a doctor in no such swanged-fool way like that there!" "But," said Margaret, "the question means do you practise allopathy, homeopathy, hydropathy, osteopathy, or, for instance, eclecticism? Are you, for example, a homeopathist?"
She was interested in spiritualism and homeopathy, read a great deal, was fond of talking of the doubts to which she was subject, and to Nadya it seemed as though there were a deep mysterious significance in all that.

Hear!" between his clever lines. In many of the traits of his mind this "Yankee Frenchman" resembled such a typical eighteenth century figure as Voltaire. Like Voltaire, he was tolerant except toward Calvinism and Homeopathy. In some of the tricks of his prose style he is like a kindlier Sterne.
In 1861 Mrs. Patterson's physical condition was so desperate that she appealed to Quimby. Her husband had had some interest in homeopathy and she was doubtless influenced by the then peculiar theories of the homeopathic school. Under Quimby's treatment she was physically reborn and apparently spiritually as well.
After which he counted the survivors. These terrible experiments were, truly, a human sacrifice on the altar of science. Dr. Griffon did not seem to think of this. Homeopathy had never a more violent adversary than Dr. Griffon.
But Hahnemann and his followers were frantically persecuted for a century by generations of apothecary-doctors whose incomes depended on the quantity of drugs they could induce their patients to swallow. These two cases of ordinary vaccination and homeopathy are typical of all the rest.
Is there not some particular reverence due the ink-well, some form of propitiation to humbug the powers of evil and constraint that devil the journalist? Satan hovers near the ink-pot. Luther solved the matter by throwing the well itself at the apparition. That savors to me too much of homeopathy. If Satan ever puts his face over my desk, I shall hurl a volume of Harold Bell Wright at him.
