to frequent relapfes. Dr. munro tells me, that an addi-

he knows in this cafe. I have tried it in both, with teem- 
ing fuccefs ; for w r e can fay nothing certain on that head 
till the winter. One of them was much afflicted with 
pains in the lower part of the belly, even after the fever 
had left him. I gave him Calomel, gr. vi. Pulv. Rhei 
gr. xv. in a bolus, and repeated it, at proper intervals, 
four times. He thinks his prefent health is much owing 
to it ; as does my other patient from the fame medicine. 
I have found calomel peculiarly beneficial to leveral chil- 
dren who had periodical heats on them, efpecially at 
night.
