the Mothers or Nurfes Milk, wich very wonderful fuccefs, and | 
thank God had never any bad Accident follow’d its ufe, although 
Ihave given it to hundreds of Infants. The fame Remedy (Mu- 
tatis mutandis) never mifles the other degrees of this Diftemper in 
other Ages, if adminiftred as it ought to be. 
Mr. E. 7. aged about Forty five years, much given todrinking Rum- 
Punch, had feveral times fallen into the Belly-ach, by which he had 
loft the ufe of his Limbs. He came to me complaining of want of 
Appetite, had likewife a {queamifhnefs or inclination to Vomit, a. 
very great Paralytick fhaking all over him, and was veryweak. 
gave him a Vomit of Oxymel Scill. which increafed, during the time 
of working, his Tremor to fuch a heighth, as one would have thought 
him Expiring, but he telling me it was ufually fo with him in Vo- 
miting, | wrought it off with chin Watergruel, and after the ufe of Of the 
Bitter-Wine, Sp. C.C. ec. For fome time he feem’d to be very well B°!¥-8¢#- 
recovered, fo that he was ableto go about his Bufinefs, his Stomach 
was good, and he eat his Victuals very heartily, and grew ftronger 
every day. 
He rode out one morning about feven Miles, and drank the Milk 
or inward Juice of three Coco Nuts, which being too great a Load 
for fo weak a Stomach and Body, he fell prefently into violent 
Vomiting and Loofenefs. This laft continued with him, for which 
I ordered him the Decoét. Alb. for ordinary Drink, I gave him Cor- 
dials of Confeét De Hyacinth, made up into Draughts with Cina- 
mon-water, and Syr. Caryopbill. to which was now and then as 
occafion requir’d, added either Opiates co ftop, Bezoar-Powder, or 
Sp.C. CG. to fome Drops, but all in vain, for every Stool weakned 
him more and more, fochac in a very few days he died. 
His Wife, recovering of a Fever, turn’d yellowifh in her Com- 
plexion, and had a bitter taft in her Mouth. I gave her a Vomic 
of Infuf. Croc. Metall. about 3vj. with as much Syr, Cariophyll. as OF a Ca- 
made ic palatable. She vomired, and was reliewd entirely by taking ¢4cxy- 
fome Pills of Extr. Rudi. She was fome Months after taken ill, 
much afrer the fame manner, I repeated the Vomit, and gave her 
three Pills made of @il. Ruff. and finding they agreed with her, I 
gave her a Box of them, and fome Elixir Proprietatis, to remove 
the Jaundice, (which feem’d for the moft part to lurk about her,) 
when ever fhe fhould find occafion again, She came by chis me- 
thod to a perfect Health.
