PREFACE.

A FEW years since, several of my personal friends, having expressed a wish to have some instructions con¬cerning the diseases of females, and the conduct to be observed during pregnancy, labour, and confinement; =and also directions for the management of new-boru infants, in accordance with the principles of our school; I was induced to prepare for the press, a short treatise an the Homoeopathic treatment of the diseases of females and children. Several subjects and diseases were in¬troduced which were not contained in works published before that time.
The first edition is now exhausted, and the call for a second, is accompanied with a request to include the general diseases incident to childhood and youth.
Those additions have been made in the present edi¬tion, and the dose, repetition, and mode of administration, affixed to the indications for each remedy.
The book is not written for criticism, but in the hope that it may be useful in the treatment of the various diseases mentioned, it is offered to the public.
