baths both currents were used, according to indications. CASE II.*—SUBACUTE RHEUMATISM. Mr. B—y, aet. 22, came for treatment on August 27th, 1874. Had subacute rheumatism, with considerable swelling of ankle-joints. The acute attack dated back six weeks. Locomotion was very painful, and could be accomplished only with the aid of a cane. A galvanic bath on the 27th and one on the 28th of August were sufficient to remove both swelling and pain, enabling the patient to resume his avocation. CASE III.—SUBACUTE RHEUMATISM. J. H. K., aet. 29. In the summer of 1873 had a very severe attack of cephalalgia, which, judging from his subsequent history, was probably of rheumatic origin. The attack confined him to bed four days, after which it troubled him continuously for three months. It then abruptly left him, to make way, apparently metastatically, for enteralgia coupled with diarrhœa. This clung to him for five months—until May, 1874. He was then well for a time. Late in the summer of 1874 he began to experience pain in the soles of the feet, which shortly culminated in a more pronounced rheumatic attack than any to which he had previously been subject. It affected chiefly the lower extremities. When he first came under my observation (7th October, 1874) he had been confined to the house five weeks. The left knee and both feet and ankle joints were much swollen. The affected joints were exquisitely sensitive. Both legs were very feeble, and coupled with this was great general debility. Locomotion was rendered difficult to such an extent that even the aid of two stout canes did not enable him to dispense with additional help in mounting my doorsteps. The first bath (Oct. 7th) was followed by no favorable results. Indeed, the patient thought he felt worse, if anything. He followed my directions, however, to take a bath every other day. From the first three baths he received little or no benefit. The fourth bath however had a very marked beneficial effect. Immediately after it he was able to dispense with one of his canes, and thenceforth improved steadily and rapidly. He took his last bath Nov. 10th 1874, having taken in all fourteen baths. He made a perfect recovery. At present (December 1875) he has had no return of the disease, nor any other illness; says he never felt better in his life. CASE IV.—CHRONIC RHEUMATISM. Mr. K., from the _clientele_ of Dr. Lusk, had been a sufferer from chronic rheumatism for a long time. As far as I could gather, the disease originated in an acute attack some two years ago. He came for his first bath on June 21st, 1875. Between that date and July 16th following he took twelve baths, which resulted in a complete cure.
