It is an old, popular medicine in this country for all kinds of scrofulous diseases.
It grows on low, dry, mica slate hills and serpentine rocks. It is abundant at the foot of Pine Rock, New Haven, on the barren plains, and seems to be dependent on the presence of talc (magnesia).
It is said that in the months of November and December these plants send out near the roots broad, thin, curved ice crystals, about an inch in breadth, which wilt in the day and are renewed in the morning.
Proved under the supervision of Doctor Hering, by J. H. вute, in 1835-6, with the tincture and first centesimal potency, and by Gosewich, with globules of the X., in 1837. See Hering’s Monograph, Philadelphia, 1866, or Hale’s New Remedies.
