As to treatment, what has succeeded best in my hands has been enjoining upon patients the necessity of a great deal of physical rest, at least ten or twelve hours a day if possible, and the avoidance of all mental worry. On this, great stress should be laid. These patients require abundant nourishment. Galvanism in my hands has been found most useful; employed twice a day and so applying the poles that the current may go from the back of the neck through the thyroid gland, and the heart, and even (the current being made very weak) through the eyeballs. This current has been continued for months, and in some cases for a year and a half, with good effects. Sometimes tincture of digitalis has been useful in moderate doses, ten or twelve minims three times in twenty-four hours, in some cases, and useless in others. Iron has been found of great value and persisted in for a long time. As a nerve-tonic, strychnine in small doses has been exceedingly beneficial. Quinine, if used, should, unless malaria complicates the case, be used in small doses only, such as 1½ grains three times a day, with the iron and strychnine. I know that many of the matters I have mooted in this paper have been quite recently discussed by Drs. Ord and McKenzie, of London, in an excellent article on exophthalmic goiter in the fourth volume of the new System of Medicine edited by Allbutt, but a still wider discussion on the matters alluded to, and on many others, by practitioners who have met with and treated such cases, will do much good, and tend to make the care of such cases more pleasant and the results of treatment more satisfactory. _Walter B.
