II. Poisonings. — i. ^ I once saw the disease (eczema) in a fifteen- T^sr^old child, who had also suffered from it in infancy, and at the 8th 7^i and now, for the third time, was suffering severely. The worthy "■other drew from her pocket the prescription which, she said, had l^dy twice cured her son of the eruption. It proved to be the jacea. [^hen the eruption appeared for the third time, with little vesicles on >f forehead and cheek, she believed that the evil had returned, and 'ffh^with administered two cupfuls of strong jacea tea m. and n. The *iclcs began to dry up, the eruption became less evident, and the tea ^ discontinued. After 8 or 10 d., however, the eruption again came ^^e front. The tea was resumed, but its effects were quite different. 1^ skin of the face became tense and swollen^ and the eruption broke ' X Ki ftesh spots, and spread all over the face and even behind the '> The glands in the neck were swollen, and the patient, in con- "^nce of the severe tension of the skin, could hardly turn his head. * «yes alone remained clear. Now, afier several d., the entire face ^s%e covered with a thick crust, which here and there cracked, and ^ issue to a yellowish viscid matter, which thickened and hardened ' ^um. Owing to the overhanging crust, the patient could with *^^«dty open the eyelids. Together with the eruption there was an **terable itching, which caused the youth to scratch and tear the *^*5, even in his sleep, and when m. came it was found necessary to ' »*is hands to the bed to keep him from scratching. The urine icreased to an unusual amount, and stunk horribly, pervading the ntir« room with an odour like that of cats' urine." (Hufeland's f««r»fl4 ii, 4, 128.)
