Maloy describes a mode of trehtmenr. by which he has been able to guide a great many influ-, enza and pneumema patients to reedvery, even though their condition it the height of the disease was extremely serious. m Doctor Maloy’s discussion, the confident employment of a deliberately planned drug therapy stands- out markedly from among the mass of publications on the treatment of these acute infectious maladies. It is pleasing to the general practioner of experience to see such convincing evidence presented tsat directly dtoeases” and it is a cause for satisfactipn/to find our own assertions confirmed,; that much good can be accomplished by active, well considered treatment for the relief, and prendpt restoratiofi to health, ot influenza and pneumonia patients. Tt will be noted that Doctor Masonally, we believe aconitine hydrojbronride to be superior to the unc- ; ture, if only for the reason that . the tinctures dispensed over the drag counter have been shown to Ibe sadly unreliable as to strength. Likewise, our personal preference is I for veratine in place of veratrum viride; for atropine jn place of powdered extract of belladona, and so forth. That, however, can not cause us to raise an issue with Doctor Maloy. The principal point is, our cordial agreement with him in Ids excellent, optimistic and courageous therapy in the treatment of very serious diseases. _ ' 1 •
