In this connection, I cannot too strongly deprecate a practice that has lately been proposed, the detection, namely, of the early existence of pregnancy by the administration of ergot. (Boston Med. and Surg. Journal, April, 1859, p. 197.) The use of ergot for this purpose, in however small a dose, would seem utterly unjustifiable.
