Characteristics——The sap of the Lime contains sugar, and the flowers an abundance of honey,

which makes the tree particularly attractive to bees. A tincture of the fresh blossoms was proved

by the Austrian Society. The most striking characteristic is "an intense sore feeling about the

abdomen and profuse warm sweat which gives no relief." This has led to its successful use in

cases of peritonitis. In addition to this are marked bearing-down symptoms in the whole genito-

urinary and rectal regions, especially in the uterus, and these combined with the others have

indicated 77/. in puerperal metritis and other disorders of the female generative sphere. An

intense facial neuralgia was developed in the proving; and also a very aggravated condition of

skin irritation with pimples of the' lichen order. Some Peculiar Sensations are: As if a piece of

cold iron pierced through right eye, causing burning. Burning as if a piece of ice were drawn

over ear and face. As if something living were under skin of face. Tearing in anterior muscles of

thigh, as if they were too short. There are A number of pains above the root of the nose; epistaxis
