![we may not be inclined to adopt any one solution. If we now turn to what are called practical considerations in respect of the management—not of what we call organic cases, and not of what we call “ mental ” cases—we will find that in practice a method found useful in respect of asthmatic, of migrainous, and of vertiginous and neuralgic per¬ sons, of “ functional ” cardiac and dyspeptic patients, of mucous colitis cases, of the sexual sufferers, the prostatic cases, and the anxiety, com¬ pulsion, and hysterical neurotics, will be found increasingly useful in respect of what we usually consider as purely “ mental ” or purely “ organic ” cases. Nay : it will be found useful even in the management of a patient with a broken leg, at any rate so far as his insomnia and his contentment are concerned. And, does not that stand for much ?
