and ten billions of globes of the size of our earth. And wonderful as this may appear, if any one should attempt to compute the whole amount of a single grain attenuated to the 200th potency, and the surface of the whole earth was one entire blackboard, there would not be room enough upon it for the figures to state the infinite amount; and yet Dr. Boenninghausen has had astonishing success with the 800th attenuation, and Dr. Nunez declares that he actually cured consumption with the 6000th attenuation of sulphur! The sting of a single honey-bee, called apis mellifica, so attenuated, would form material enough to medicate all the human race that might live on this planet for a thousand million of years, and then there would be enough left to form a thousand planets larger than Jupiter.
Now if the articles thus advertised by this Brooklyn homœopathist are what he declares them to be, and what the celebrated Boenninghausen certifies that they are, and if equal parts of sugar and starch have been employed in their preparation, as is now recommended, then if all
