My disease suou ailiimiatc! in a continued malarial te .•ei which kept me'jiiseiy confined for about a week. I became exceedingly lepressed and melancholy, somui h so that I lost interest in my work, and, indeed, scaicely tared what happened to me. During all this time, it must be un derstood that I did not neglei t medical treatment All the most powerful remedies were tried, such as liquid ar- ( K-nate of potash, valeriautc ot' iron, mercury, bromide of |>ota.s»>inm, chlo ridcof bisimith, hinokline, chinciioiii ilia, quinine and several others.
