Excerpt from A Monograph Upon Aconite: Its Therapeutic and Physiological Effects Together With Its Uses, and Accurate Statements Derived From the Various Sources of Medical Literature The whole history of Aconite, from the time when writers assigned it a mystic creation from the spittle of the Hell hound Cerberus, and looked upon it only as a violent poison, through later ages, as its uses and properties were brought one by one to light, down to the present day, when it stands developed in all its extraordinary virtues, an almost, indispen sable instrument in alleviating sufl'ering and curing disease, is full of interest.

Martin Lauzer, "Revue de Thgrapeutique," II., p. 68, (1854), takes from the 'Revue de Therap. du Midi," the following case of poisoning: "A sick man had swallowed a teaspoonful of the tincture of Acciiite, but, fearing some danger, took immediately after a seidlitz powder.
