A CURE FOR PASSIONS. A remedy lor human passions—-those moral diseases such as envy, hatred, malice, anger, jealousy, obstinacy, avarice, etc., which renders so many homos unhappy, has been discovered by a physician of the homoeopathic school at Lyons, In a pamphlet to show “ how homoeopathy may improve the character of man and develop his intelligence,” he gives some wonderful instances of the cures alleged to have been affected by his special treatment, which he declares to be infallible. In one case a suspicious, jealous and violent husband, who bad ill-treated his ! wife for a period of sixteen years, was cured, unconsciously to himself, by a few globules of nux vomica dropped quietly into bis broth, and his wife was soon delighted to hear him humming some operatic airs and addressing her as “ cherie”’, u ms poupcule,” etc. After a few days’ experience of this the terrible .Barthold was transformed into the tendcrest of husbands. By a skilful alteration of other medicaments a rascally husband was corrected of inherent faults and wilful outbursts of anger. A miserly father, on being subjected to a few doses of calcarsa carbonica,] gave his consent to his daughter’s marriage, which be had previously resisted. By the same medicine, varied in its preparation, a young student who was backward in mathematics, was enabled to master the science without further study,; The calcarea carbonica, itr will be noted, cured a raiser and a dolt—both suffering from the tyranny of sums and figures, The Lyon physician has an antidote for everything, nux vomica for jealousy, snl» phur for drunkenness, ealicea for obstinacy, arseniemn album for malice, and belladonna for imbecility,
