The law relating to dose,which I then enunciated, I still believe in. I do not claim that itis universal or that it will apply to all drugs. But it is a law whichshows us why cures are performed by material doses when minuteones fail, and vice versa. I am gratified that Dr. Van Denburg has called attention to thissubject and solicited verification or the reverse. Allow me therefore to state again my views: 1. That nearly all drugs, when given to healthy persons in patho-genetic; doses, cause two series of effects. 2. The first series are what I
