1899 Mr. Hansen felt previous books of materia medica only dealt with the more important medicines and id not embrace the whole list of homeopathic remedies. Mr. Hansen used a vast number of works in order to compile a book that is complete in the field.

Excerpt from A Text-Book of Materia Medica and Therapeutics of Rare Homoeopathic Remedies When I, four years ago, came to a determination to go through all our materia medica, and not, as formerly, exclusively deal with the more important medicines, it became immediately clear to me that our handbooks of materia medica (excepting the Encyclopedia of T. F. Allen) did not embrace the whole list of homœopathic remedies. The excellent handbook of Professor Allen contained the greatest number, while the text-books of Drs. Cowperthwaite and Jessen (the latter also a good book for the wants of practitioners) have been found more serviceable in size for daily employment. I accordingly took the text-book of Cowperthwaite as my basis, and added to this a great number of notes, which the author intends to embody in the new edition. The remedies, that were not found by me in the text-book of Cowperthwaite, I in particular brought together to form a text-book of materia medica and therapeutics of the rare homœopathic medicines. A physician, by means of the text-book of Cowperthwaite and with the help of the present Supplement, will now have the whole homœopathic materia medica at his disposal.

Excerpt from Text-Book of Homeopathic Materia Medica Repeat. As to the frequency of repetition, we are guided by the following rule: the remedies which produce symptoms on the healthy in a short period of time, repeat at short intervals - minutes and hours; one which takes a long time to produce symptoms, repeat at longer intervals and continue for a longer period of time. AS it is impossible to keep the time Of all rem edies in mind, we give the following: put in class I the gases, volatile salts, and those drugs which act directly upon the nerves; class 2, the earthy salts and those drugs which act upon the blood; class 3, compounds of the first and second classes to be repeated at medium intervals. For auxiliary treatment such as diet, exercise, rest, change of climate, we are guided by the modalities Of the drug, e. G., conditions which are worse from motion, advise rest, etc. As to diet, there is a sad need Of reliable information. Anyone who would write a book on the dietetics of each remedy would bestow a great boon upon the human race. The remedies dis cussed are the polychrests and those Of the others which have been most frequently and successfully used by the author. The latter include those which have been most recently proven and come into use. NO claim is made for anything newer or better than is found in other text-books on materia medica. The method Of presenting the Old is not wholly original. We have gleaned from all our text-books on materia medica but more especially from Allen's Handbook, Clark's Dictionary and Boger's Synoptic Key. We hope that by following the method of grouping the symptoms in their study Of remedies, undergraduates and busy practitioners may become more ac curate and successful prescribers.
