A gentleman suffered with neuralgia, following an attack of la grippe. The pains were located in the eyes and forehead. He had suffered with them for two weeks; they came on daily about 1 o'clock p. m. and disappeared about 6 o'clock p. m. He said: This pain is so severe it nearly sets me crazy when at its worst. Very restless at night. Magnesia phos. , 3x. , and Kali phos. , 6x, alternately every hour, gave imtaediate relief. Slept much better that night; next day just a slight trace of pain, and the second day none at all.
