ering, worse during warmth; chilly creepings across the back, the
hands feel numb; an hour after, feverish heat, with rough cough, hot
cheeks and hands, no thirst; these symptoms pass off gradually, but she
feels heavy and prostrated. 1089: chill after a heat of thirty-six
hours. 1090: sudden chilliness, afterwards heat and sweat. 1124:

Whosoever compares the totality of these effects of Apis to the symptoms
of the prevailing abdominal typhus, will admit that Apis is
hom[oe]opathic to this disease. He will even admit that this
hom[oe]opathicity of Apis to abdominal typhus extends to the minute
particulars of the disease _in their totality_. Even the course which
Apis pursues, in developing its effects in the organism, is similar to
the progressive development of typhus. Any one who has witnessed, as I
have, the course which this disease pursues, will admit that mucous
membrane of the alimentary canal is first affected by the disease, in
the same manner as Apis affects it; that this irritation of the mucous
membrane is followed by gastric catarrhal symptoms, which are speedily
succeeded by symptoms of disintegration of the animal fluids and typhoid
phenomena; that the gastric irritation is generally characterized by
boils, urticaria, erysipelas of the skin, and the nervous irritation by
symptoms of abdominal typhus; that the internal and external development
of the disease is determined by a striking sympathetic derangement of
the organic functions of the liver, and still more of the spleen, and
likewise by a more striking prominence of the intermittent type of the
fever; and that all these varied disturbances finally culminate in
abdominal typhus.

Owing to this remarkable similarity, Apis will effect striking cures of
all these different derangements.

If, after more or less distinctly felt premonitory symptoms--after a
sudden cold, excessive exertions, prostrating emotions or enjoyments--a
more or less violent fever is developed, accompanied by dulness and
painfulness of the head, retching and vomiting, distention and
sensitiveness of the pit of the stomach, and soon after of the whole
abdomen, with urging diarrh[oe]a, pappy and foul taste in the mouth,
