![water, will convince tlie most sceptical of the marvellous powers possessed by this remedy. Symptoms and Conditions arising in the human organism which indicate the require- ment of “ iYo. IX.” Arterial or venous hemorrhages resulting from mechani- cal rupture of a blood-vessel, internally or externally, with- out prior febrile disturbance or inflammatory action. The Administration of “No. IX.” (Internal.) Dose for Adults.—Seven to ten drops in a wine-glass of water, to be repeated. Dose for Infants and Children.—One half drop in a little water to each year of age, to be repeated. (External.) For cuts or wounds, a little of the strong tincture may be applied to the part on a piece of linen, under the bandage or sticking plaster. [Note.—Where a high state of fever existed prior to the mechanical hemorrhage, it will be necessary to administer a dose of “No. I.” immediately, and repeat in an hour, using the “No. IX.” once in the meantime when the pulse begins to fall, giving it time to operate, and only re- peat it according to the circumstances of the case. Under such conditions, the arresting of the hemorrhage will be necessarily slower, although absolutely certain. In such a case time must be patiently given for the “ No. I. ” to at least partially induce the febrile state before any very con- siderable reduction or total cessation of the hemorrhage can be looked for or expected, except, indeed, the action of either “No. I.” or “No. IX.” should accelerate Nature’s efforts by producing a fainting, when the hemorrhage will at once cease, and every care must be taken to give the patient absolute rest and peace. No more medicine will then be required for a time, but a little coffee should be given to resuscitate where weakness happens to follow the fainting fits. According to what symptoms subsequently arise, so must the appropriate specific be administered.]](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b28112003_0112.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
