PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS.

Sepia is entitled to a large place in the Sepia type of woman, whose tendency to tubercular trouble finds encouragement in a weakened sexual system. Persistent leucorrhœa with a heavy bearing down sensation in the uterus, as if everything would come out, coupled with a weak, gone sensation in the pit of the stomach, is its chief characteristic. The face of the Sepia subject is pale-yellow, or with yellow spots on face, around the mouth, or yellow saddle across the upper part of the face and nose. Great weakness or generally relaxed condition corresponding to that of the uterus and appendages is common. There are frequent flashes of fever or heat, with weakness quite similar to Sulphur, and but for the uterine symptoms so pronounced it might be difficult to differentiate between them. There are different kinds of cough, two of which are characteristic. One the patient coughs a dry persistent cough with gagging until a little mucus is raised, sometimes vomited, followed by relief; the other loose, OFFENSIVE, EXCESSIVELY FŒTID. It may be blood streaked, and tastes salty. Sepia is especially useful in women at the climacteric.
