Apothecaries; then lays down his own Scheme of Pra* 
&ice according to his own Hypothefis, and defcends to 
every particular Symptom, and fliews in what manner 
it is to be dealt withal: And here he takes occafion to 
difcourfe particularly of the ufe of Alcalies, ^eficatorks» 
Suppedanea and Tidgems or part of Animals apply'd out- 
wardly to any part of the Body, of Alexipharmicks and 
Opiates. But tho the Author hath done feveral Cures 
this Rational way, yet confidering its tedioufhefs and 
uncertainty, and the Proclivity of the Fever it (elf. to 
degenerate into a Malignant, and the feveral other In- 
conveniences of this Method, he hath treated it for fe- 
veral Years after the other Method, which he is juft : 
going to defcribe. 
When the Remittent is Genuine* the Antidote is to 
be given as fbon as the Fever remits ; and there-- is -no- 
thing elfe needful; for when the Poyfon which is the 
Ekel of the Fever is taken away, the Flame muft ne- 
ceflarily go out. But if the Fever be permitted to encreafe 
till it is ready to turn malignant, or hath its Type a!- 
raoft loft anddifguis'd by the violence of feme Syn> 
ptom ; after Blood-letting, &c. the Spirits muft be erect- 
ed with Theriacal Bolus's and Veficatories, and then 
the Anditote will take place. If the Patient is inclin'd 
to vomit, and cannot retain this unpalatable Medicine, 
the Tone of the Stomach muft fir ft be corroborated, 
and the Acrimony of its Ferment (bftoed and rebated, 
and then fome Laudanum muft be mixt with the Anti- 
dote. The Author takes notice alfo how a Symptomatic 
C4I Diarrbcea, or Cholera, and the Symptoms of Inflam- 
mation and Explofion are to be manag'd and obferves^ 
That when this Fever is accompany a .with Inflammati-- 
on, it will not be cur'd without quantities of the Cortex 
larger than ordinary ; and that when it is joynd with 
Explofion of the Spirits, thole Spafms will not be qui- 
eted with an ordinary Dofe .of Laudanum^ but .require*
