HAHNEMANN *) Great desire to urinate and for stool; on first urinating, a thin stool without colic (after ten minutes); on the second desire to urinate, there followed a thin stool without colic. Great desire to urinate, with very little urine (after forty hours). сonstant and ineffectual desire to urinate (after a quarter of an hour).

 Frequent evacuation of urine, as clear as water; there was a sudden desire to urinate (after one hour). Unable to retain the urine because the amount is too large; it is passed involuntarily if he does not hasten, lasting twelve hours (after a quarter of an hour). Increased secretion of urine (in one prover from large doses); as the stools became liquid, the quantity of urine diminished. Frequent micturition without increase of urine, during the first hour. The primary action of squills upon the urinary organs is, at first, great desire to urinate, s. 122, with profuse emission of urine, 190, especially of urine clear as water, 182, 189, at least watery urine even if not profuse, 193.
 Several hours after the cessation of the first and positive action of Squills, there follows a secondary action (reaction) as the opposite of the primary action, namely, slight inclination to urinate, scanty discharge, and seldom micturition, 196, 187, 194.
 Sometimes of the usual color, 193, but frequently of a dark color, 199, 200, and also with great urging to urinate, though only a little, 185, or even no micturition at all, 181. Now, as all this was not known, not investigated, and not even the methods of research recognized, so there were very few cures of dropsical diseases by Squills, through the several thousand years in which it was employed (for an unknown period previous to the times of the Greeks, Squills was considered by the Egyptians the only remedy for this disease); most of the patients of this sort were all the more quickly and surely hurried into the grave by means of this drug. It was always the cause of great rejoicing, at first, that so much urine was expelled, and a consequent cure was eagerly looked for; but it was not known that this was a primary action of Squills, and that in this case only the opposite of the previous diseased condition, and consequently only a palliative, and it was seen with astonishment, that in spite of increasing the doses there was nothing more than this reaction, namely darker and constantly more scanty and even more and more seldom micturition. Only a few of the diseases attended with swelling (these are very numerous, and the swelling is only a single symptom, hence the name dropsy, which is applied to all of them, as if they were only a single disease, always the same, an unpardonable falsity in pathology), only a few of these dropsical diseases whose symptoms have a general similarity to the positive symptoms of Squills, but whose urinary symptoms especially coincide closely with the primary symptoms of Squills (these are seldom), can be really and permanently cured by Squills. Much more frequently will forms of diuresis (diabetes) occur in which this drug, increasing the secretion of urine as its primary action, and also corresponding homoeopathically to the other symptoms of the disease, will be found a specific and curative remedy. HAHNEMANN. Micturition more seldom than usual, and the secretion more scanty, but the urine not dark (after twenty-four hours),. Urine more scanty than usual (after forty-eight hours). Scanty evacuation of watery urine (after half an hour). Micturition not more frequent, but urine more scanty than usual, for three days. During the first three days the amount of urine was not increased, but on the fourth day it was increased by 200 grams; this however, is not to be ascribed with certainty to the Squills, because the prover had at least 400 grams more water than usual during the day; on the fifth day, when the usual amount of water was taken, the urine fell to the normal quantity. The average daily quantity of urine, was 1358 cubic centimeters; specific gravity 1023, and the total solids, 69.35 grams; of this amount 27.2 were inorganic, and 42.13 organic matter (for three days before experiment). Urine passed, 1572 cubic centimeters; specific gravity, 1020; total solid matter, 60.67 grams; 31.07 of this amount being inorganic, and 29.60 organic constituents; the urine was of feeble acid action (first day); quantity 1493.5 cubic centimeters, specific gravity 1020, total solids 58.22 grams, inorganic matter 30.15, organic 28.07 grams; reaction same as yesterday (second day); quantity 1535 cubic centimeters, specific gravity 1019, total amount of solids 61.58 grams, inorganic matter 30.58, organic 31.00 grams; reaction, color, etc., were unchanged (third day). Reddish urine, normal in amount, with reddish sediment for three days, with very little desire to urinate (after twenty hours). Urine brownish- yellow, transparent, scanty, and after standing, forming clouds (first eight hours). It seemed to be a kind of curative action, since the prover previously had too profuse a secretion and too frequent evacuation of urine. HAHNEMANN. Urine bloody. Urine hot, and stool with undigested portions and very offensive). The experiments show that Squills in small medicinal doses has no diuretic action, increasing neither the amount of water nor of the solid constituents of the urine.
 Sexual Organs.
 Dull stitches in the glans penis, causing anxiety,. - сompressive pain in the testicles,. Haemorrhage from the uterus,. Not found. HUGHES.

 Internal tickling in the region of the thyroid cartilage, that provokes coughing, by which, however, the tickling is aggravated.
 Frequent irritation to a short dry cough, in four or five shocks, caused by tickling beneath the thyroid cartilage. Rattling precedes the cough and disappears after the cough). сough and Expectoration. сough, even to retching. Violent dry cough, that causes shattering pain in the abdomen and dryness in the throat.
 A violent sudden cough, in the morning, with stitches in the side on every cough, with expectoration (after six days); the day previous, there was scarcely a trace of the cough. сough, in the morning, with profuse slimy expectoration (after seven days).
 Cough, with diminished expectoration (after nine days); on every paroxysm of cough, painful pressure from within outward, in the thorax, and painful contraction of the abdominal muscles. сough, at first accompanied by expectoration. The result of all my observations is that Squills excites mucous secretion in the trachea and bronchi; the mucus is thin and easily expectorated by coughing, but only as its primary action, see ss. 215, 216, 209, 213, 212. Hence it happens that the administration of so-called expectorants is only palliative, that is, the continued use of them must inevitably increase the trouble if the filling up of the chest by tenacious firm mucus is the chronic trouble, for after the first effect, loosening the chest, a reaction follows and makes the mucus constantly more tenacious and the cough drier. See ss. 207, 208, 211, 214. Rather would this drug prove curative in excessive secretions of mucus in the chest, as recommended by Weickard. HAHNEMANN. *) сonstant expectoration of mucus (after two hours). Respiration. Heavy slow inspiration and expiration. Difficult or embarrassed respiration. Frequently obliged to take a deep breath, which provokes cough. Dyspnoea and stitches in the chest, which are most distressing on inspiration. Dyspnoea, with frequent rapid respiration and anxiety, as long as the dyspnoea lasts.
 Chest.
 Peripneumonia. Original revised by Hughes. If the observatis of physicians for several centuries are examined, it is found from time to time, that the best of them, relying upon the empirical basis of experience, have used Squills with brilliant results for inflammation of the thoracic organs, with stitches in the side, although the great acridity of the drug on the tongue and internally, in large doses, was perfectly well known to them.
 It could not happen otherwise than that they should be very successful with it (as indeed they were), in view of the many homoeopathic primary actions of the drug upon the chests of healthy people; compare ss. 212,220, 222, 225, 226, 227, 230, 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 237, 238, 239. They were far more successful than the regular school now in fashion, which, from theoretical grounds, employs a so called antiphlogistic and unmerciful bloodletting, and are exceedingly unsuccessful. They would have been more successful in curing pleurisy, if the cases had been compared with the symptoms of Squills, now so well known, and if it had been exhibited homoeopathically, all extraneous influences had been removed from the patient, and the drug had not been mixed with any other, and had been given not only singly but in a sufficiently small does. I have found in most cases scarcely a quintillionth, often only a sextillionth part of a grain, and even less (only a very small portion of a drop of the solution), most serviceable. HAHNEMANN. *) on Oppression across the chest if it were too tight. Drawing pain in the chest (after eight to twelve hours). Sharp stitches in the scapular end of the clavicle during inspiration and expiration.

On inspiration, jerking stitches in the right and left side of the chest, not far from the sternum (after twenty-four hours). Stitches in the left and right true ribs, at the same time. A kind of pleurisy). From Squills mixed with Vincetoxicum; the patient had first muscular rheumatism of left arm and neck, and then on the same side a pleuritis spuritis spuria exquisitissima. She died soon after. HUGHES.
