A NEW remedy for tlio headache ha.
been found by Dr, Haley, an Australian
physician, who says that for some yean;
past ho lias found minimum doses o;
iodide of potassium of great service i:
frontal headache; that is, a heavy, dull
headache, situated over tlie brow, and
accompanied by languor, chilliness, and
a feeling of general discomfort, wi ll
distaste for food, which sometimes np
prouches to nausea, can bo completely
removed by a two-grain dose dissolved
in half a wincglassfiil of water, and this
quietly sipped, the wholo quantity beinc
taken in about ten minutes. In man
oases, he adds, the effect of these sm 1
doses haa been simply wonderful, as, to.
instance, a person who a quarter of iv
hour before was feeling moat m s -rabl
and refused all food, wishing only fci
quietness, would now take a good men
and resume his wonted cheerfulness. 11
this cure of Dr. Haley’s is in reality n
practical one, he will merit for tlie die
covery the gratitude of suffering mil
lions.
