Dr. John Henry Clarke, M.D.
(1853 - 1931)
Dr. Clarke was one of the most eminent homoeopaths of England. He had his famous Clinic at 8 Bolton Street, Piccadilly, located in London.
Anyone who met Clarke even once must have been impressed with the feeling of an exceptional human being, a forceful personality, a man apart. He was so busy in his studies that he had very little time to mix with others. He was a prodigious worker, as his published works testify, to say nothing of the host of private patients from all parts of the world. He was also a consulting physician to the London Homoeopathic Hospital. He was the editor of the 'Homoeopathic World' for twenty-nine years. His famous publications are as follows:
The Prescriber - A Dictionary of the New Therapeutics
...with an essay on 'How to Practice Homoeopathy.' This little book has helped thousands of lay practitioners to prescribe successfully and carry the message of homoeopathy to far off lands. It is one of the 'must-have' books for every new practitioner of Homoeopathy. Its indications of remedies are based on personal experiences of a number of reputed homoeopaths like Burnett, Hughes, Cooper, Ruddock, Neatby, Salser, etc.
The Dictionary of Practical Materia Medica
...consists of 3 volumes. In it he has given the synonyms, the source, the provers' experiences, clinical indications, temperament, keynotes and characteristics, modalities, pathological, sensational, locational and causational indications of each drug. He has also given the provings of the drug. In addition, the relationship of the drug to other remedies.
A Clinical Repertory to the Dictionary of Materia Medica
...was specifically designed by him for the study of his huge Materia Medica. The Repertory is very helpful for individualization of the simillimum from other similar remedies.
Dr. Clarke belongs to the band of provers of Nosodes, the products of disease used as homoeopathic remedies. The chief stalwarts among them were: Swan, Fincke, Clarke, Burnett, Hering, Stearns, Wheeler, Bach, Patterson, Grimmer and others.
He has the credit of introducing the following remedies to the Homoeopathic Materia Medica: Pertussin, Carcinosinum, Epihysterinum, Baccillinum Testicum, Morbillinum, Parotidinum, Scarletinum, and Scirrhinum.

HOMOPATHY EXPLAINED
By John Henry Clarke, M. D.
What are 'LIKES' ?
The Homopathic Law says that 'Likes cure likes.' Therefore it becomes necessary to make it clear just wherein the likeness between case and remedy lies. The cases already quoted from Hahnemann's practice have given readers an idea of the points of resemblance which the prescriber has to look for, but it will be useful to look at the matter more in detail.
Not long ago it was announced in the daily press that an assistant of Edison's had lost his life through cancer set up by X-ray burns. This fact made some impression on the public mind, since at the present moment the treatment for cancer most in vogue in the profession (if the case is beyond the reach of the surgeon's knife) is by these same X-rays. 'Is not this homopathy ?' asked several inquirers ; ' X-rays have caused cancer, and they are also used to cure it.' Once wise allopathic medical man replied to the query that ' he could not see any resemblance between X-rays and cancer.' Very likely he could not ! But then Hahnemann never said that the likeness was to be sought between the physical characters of the remedy and the appearance of the disease from which a patient may be suffering. And it must be remembered that it is Hahnemann's definition of 'likes' which counts, and nobody else's. The 'likes' of homopathy is resemblances between drug-effects and disease-effects. The effect of X-rays on some persons is to cause cancer ; therefore, says Hahnemann, under favourable conditions, and in suitable persons, X-rays must prove a cure of cancer. That X-rays will not cure all cases of cancer is certain ; the suitable cases must be found out by future observation of both the causative and curative effects of the rays themselves.
The 'likeness,' then, which homopathy looks for is resemblance in effects. There are some drugs which produce such complete pictures of natural diseases that cases of poisoning have been mistaken for them. The annals of poisoning are full of instances of this kind : the medical practitioners in attendance have given certificates of death from natural disease, when later investigation has proved that the death was caused by poisoning. An instance of this kind occurred not long ago in America, when poisoning by Cyanide of Mercury was certified as death from diphtheria. Again and again cases of Belladonna poisoning have been mistaken for scarlatina. When the resemblance between a drug disease and a natural disease is so close as this, it can be inferred with absolute certainty that the drug which manifests the 'likeness' will be a remedy of wide usefulness in the treatment of cases of the disease. Accordingly Mercurius cyanatus is a remedy with homopaths of proven usefulness in diphtheria ; and Belladonna not only modifies the course and symptoms of scarlatina, but it also acts as a prophylactic against infection. If Belladonna in the 3rd centesimal potency were given to the healthy members of a household when scarlatina breaks out in it, the epidemic will not spread. Were this fact generally known among school proprietors, and enormous amount of trouble, anxiety, and loss might be saved to them. This is one small point in the immense importance of a knowledge of homopathy to the community at large.
But it is necessary to guard against the idea that because certain drugs produce a more or less perfect facsimile of certain natural diseases, that every disease must have its natural counterpart and cure. The instances in which a single drug produces such a perfect picture are rare ; and when they do occur, it must be understood that many cases of the disease will require other remedies for their cure. Homopathy has no cut and dried remedies for cut and dried disease.
Wherein, then, are we to look for the likeness ? It lies in the character of the symptoms produced by the drugs, corresponding with the character of the symptoms present in every case of disease.
Hahnemann quickly discovered that symptoms observed in providings did not all posses equal value. He noticed that when any peculiar or out-of-the-way effect came out in a proving, this had especial value in prescribing when the same symptom was met with in a case of disease.
This peculiarity need not be in the actual symptom itself, it may be in the conditions under which it manifests itself ; or it may be in some concomitant, which is found associated with it. It is in being able to discern and utilise these points the most of the art of homopathy lies, and it is on this that success in treatment largely depends.
To give one or two illustrations. A patient who suffered severely from headache complained that one for her sensations was 'as if woollen were wrapped round the head inside the skull.' Now that is a most peculiar sensation, and to cure the case it would be necessary to find a symptom somewhat like it accredited to some remedy. In my search, by the aid of repertories, I found this : 'Sensation as if a cold cloth were wrapped round the brain.' This was produced by the salt of the American spring named Sanicula. I gave it to my patient in the 1000th potency, and it rapidly removed the entire train of symptoms, which also corresponded to other effects of the remedy. In this case the sensation of there being something wrapped round the brain was the peculiar feature in which drug and disease were 'like.' And although the sensation of the wrapping material was different, the likeness was close enough to effect a cure.
In other cases the point of correspondence that it is essential to match lies in the conditions under which they symptoms appear, or are either better or worse. An octogenarian patient of mine, of very fine physique, a devotee of the morning cold bath, was troubled with a rheumatic pain in the right arm and elbow, which annoyed him very much, as it interfered with a favourite occupation, namely, driving a spirited pair of horses. Now the drugs which produce pains in the arms are legion. It was necessary, therefore, in this case to ascertain if there was anything peculiar in the time or circumstances under which the pain occurred. I elicited that the pain woke him in the night, and the only way in which he could get relief was by getting into his cold bath ; after this he could return to bed and sleep.
Now here was a marked peculiarity-relief from cold bathing. Most rheumatic conditions are worse from contact with water of any king, and especially cold water. Among the drugs which cause rheumatic pains which are relieved by cold baths there is one which stands out pre-eminent, and this is Ledum palustre. Ledum Palustre 30 was given and quickly cured the patient. (It may interest some of my readers and enable them to tack this characteristic condition to their memories, if I mention that the plant flourishes in cold water-that the marshes are its home.) I instance this case to show the usefulness in homopathy of noting peculiar conditions, all repertories to the Materia Medica must, to be complete, include in their indices a list of CONDITIONS under which symptoms are better or worse, or appear or disappear.
Another class of conditions which are of great importance to watch in prescribing a Conditions of Time. It is well known that some complaints are worse at certain hours of the day or night, and very often this condition is of as much importance from the prescriber's point of view as the symptom itself. A very common symptom in connection with many diseases is a 'sinking,' 'empty' sensation, occurring at times when the patient should not ordinarily be 'hungry. Now many remedies have caused this sensation, and among them is sulphur. But the time when the Sulphur sensation is most marked is from 11 a. m, to noon. Other medicines have the same peculiarity but not so markedly at this hour ; when a 'sinking' sensation is complained of at about 11 o'clock, Sulphur will be the most likely remedy to relieve the whole condition.
A very characteristic time of aggravation has been noticed in connection with Lycopodium, and this is from 4 p. m. to 6 p. m. or to 8 p. m. When this particular time of aggravation appears in any complaint, the likeness to the time-aggravation of Lycopodium will give a very strong point, indeed, in favour of that remedy being the right one ; and if other symptoms correspond it must be given.
Conditions of motion or rest, of heat or cold are other points of importance in the 'likeness' between remedies and cases, which the homopath has to take into careful account in marking his prescriptions.
Another point of 'likeness' lies in accompanying conditions, or 'concomitants,' as they are called. Some patients manifest certain morbid symptoms as a regular accompaniment of other complaints. For instance, a patient has neuralgia, and every time the pain comes on it is accompanied by an attack of sickness and vomiting. Now of all the remedies which cause sickness, Ipecacuanha is one of the first which will be thought of. We all know Ipecacuanha wine, and most of us have experienced its effect at one period or other of our lives. The nauseating property of Ipecacuanha dominates, in senses, all its other effects. If it causes pain, the pain is accompanied by nausea or vomiting. If it causes fever, the chill is accompanied by nausea or vomiting. Thus it comes about that any kind of illness which sets up as a concomitant effect nausea or vomiting may find in Ipecacuanha its 'likeness' or counterpart, and hence its remedy. In a similar way the sleep-causing power in Opium dominates its effects and whenever excessive drowsiness accompanies other complaints it will very probably be found that Opium will prove the remedy most like to the case.
These are a few of the points of 'likeness' with the homopath must look for if he is to make successful prescriptions. This is the 'likeness' which Hahnemann referred to when he formulated his law that 'Likes cure Likes.' To the unprofessional observer it might seem a more desirable thing to find pictures of entire diseases, and thus find a remedy for each ; but in practice that would not work so well. Hahnemann has by the art he revealed liberated by materia medica and the prescriber. Any remedy is thus available for use in a case of any disease, and the prescriber is free to select his remedy throughout the entire range.

It IS interesting though, that he makes similar posts as the one I have above on an almost daily basis, yet nothing is said, and that Simon never did provide an answer as to the reason why this is allowed, did he...
I think it is quite self evident why this is now. This site is about making money, and selling remedies, nothing more. There is no interest here in promoting Homoeopathy other than for material gain, and this will not be allowed.
There are some very monumental changes about to take place in the world of Homoeopathy, due to some...let's call them 'recent discoveries', and myself, and a few carefully selected others, as part of our work, intend to make damn sure that sites such as this are exposed for the absolute insult to the science of Homoeopathy they truly are.
Enjoy it while it lasts, because it won't be for much longer ;)
Best wishes to all the REAL Homoeopaths out there, whether they be professional or lay, our time is on it's way.
Jacob.
P.S Mr Varma, do take some Staph, and there is quite a lot of Lycopodium in there also, which is the best thing for cowardly weasels such as yourself. Some free advice there from a REAL Homoeopath ;)

Hi Jacob
Simon knows the futility of banning people. He knows they can always come back.
However, I think it is used as a psycological weapon to silence those, who are weak hearted, and who will feel offended and quit forever.
I too was threatened with banning, as Bandarbabu2000; the wording suggested it, as a warning, but the fact is my password has been changed so as I can no longer log in with the same name.
Later on, in one of the threads Simon confirmed that Bandarbabu is banned.
I know, real homeopaths like us, have to be prepared for any eventuality, on sites like this.
Unfortunately, it is sites like these where patients flock to, and I thought this is the best place to promote classical homeopathy.
I have been insulted umpteen times, however I am persisting as my goal of bringing classical homeopathy closer to people is paramount to me.
the modus operandi is very clear now. They will be after you, till you loose all your patience, and react violently, then you are banned.
The original instigators will go scotfree.
I wish you be away from these wrangles, and concentrate on helping the needy patients.
Don't quit.This is my sincere request.
Murthy

I would like to offer my congratulations to Pankaj who was responsible single handedly last night when I was not on duty on the ABC, to ensure that the long awaited ban on the Homeopathic Constable's able assistant in Homeopathic crime, who was proving to be a thorn in our sides was finally banned by Simon to whom too I would like to extend my hand in congratulating for ridding the ABC of a person who only pretended to be qualified but always refused to show his credentials when asked for proof. I hope that the ABC will return to its original status of peace and love which was sadly lacking due to the flames of hatred that were fanned by this inimitable duo Murthy and Jacob.
It is types like Jacob Scot alias HahneMANIA and of course Gavini Murthy that are the bane of Homeopathy as all they seem to be able to do is to create dissension on this Homeopathic forum when we were doing very nicely without them although we had to sometimes contend with the Homeopathic Witch Nisha who too was banned by Simon 8 times according to her own admission, but succeeded in returning, thanks to her witchery and her charms. It is pathetic to note that she mentioned in a recent post that she had used her devilish charms to harm me on her recent visit to one of my showrooms in Colombo and that she was getting some feedback from my heart which is, according to her slowly getting affected. I can assure her that my heart is beating very well and my BP still remains at below 120/80 with pulse of below 65 at as she is aware age 77+.
It is indeed shocking that a mere hair dresser should dare to wish anyone ill, least of all a person who is old enough to be her grandfather and I hope that the Homeopathic community will join me in hoping that she too will be banned irrespective of her witchery and her charms. This can only prove to those who may read this post that she hails from the lowest possible dregs of Indian society. I hope that steps will be taken to erase the word India from her ID on the ABC to which Mohan has always taken objection, and so ensure that she is not shown as an example of Indian womanhood which she continues to disgrace as she only continues to promote hatred on this once peaceful forum.
It was bad enough to have to withstand the unceasing attacks of Murthy but the recent addition of his able assistant in homeopathic policing Jacob was really too much for me and I was beginning to wonder if it was worth my time and effort being present on the ABC as it was taking far too much of my time. I believe that both yesterday and the day before, I had replied to over 50 joint attacks and this was beginning to have its toll. However it is posts like the one above where a Diabetic patient responded to my Arnica therapy by noticing a sudden drop in her Blood Sugar levels that make me weather these storms on the ABC to help those who post with my Joepathy.
I have diagnosed Murthy as a Schizophreniac and I have noticed that he is really not always accountable for his ravings on the ABC. I have noticed that he is variable in his attitude depending on the time of day. He seems able to be rational in the first half of the day but in the evenings he invariably blows up and has often admitted to his 'brain boiling over' which has lead me to predict an aneurism in the making.
I am confident that it will only be a matter of time before he too suffers the same fate as his soul mate in Homeopathic crime.
