---- Genders, about thirty-four years of age, was delivered of three
children, and became dropsical of the abdomen. She passed little or no
urine, had constant thirst, and no appetite. She took two spoonfuls of
an eight ounce decoction, with three drams twice a day. By the time
she had finished the bottle, (which must have been on the fourth day,)
she had evacuated all her water, and could go about. Her appetite
increased with every dose, and she recovered without farther help.
