Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. The subject of Scatalogic or Stercoraceous Rites and Practices, however repellent it may be under some of its aspects, is none the less deserving of the profoundest consideration, – if for no other reason than that from the former universal dissemination of such aberrations of the intellect, as well as of the religious impulses of the human race, and their present curtailment or restriction, the progress of humanity upward and onward may best be measured.<br><br>Philosophical and erudite thinkers of past ages have published tomes of greater or less magnitude upon this subject; among these authors, it may be sufficient, at this moment, to mention Sehurig, Etmuller, Flemming, Paullini, Beckherius, Rosinus Len-tilius, and Levinus Lemnins. The historian Buckle regarded the subject as one well worthy of examination and study, as will appear in the text from the memoranda found in his scrap-books after his death.<br><br>The philosopher Boyle is credited with the paternity of a work which appeared over the signature B, bearing upon the same topic.<br><br>The anonymous author or authors of the very learned pamphlet Bibliotheca Scatalogica, for the perusal of which I am indebted to the courtesy of Surgeon John S. Billings, collected a mass of most valuable bibliographical references.<br><br>Quite recently there have appeared in the Mitterlungen Gesselsch., Wien, 1888, two pages of the work of Dr. M. Holler, Volksmedicin und Aberglaube in Oberbayem Gegenwart und Vergangenheit, describing some of the exerementitious remedies still existing in the folk-medicine of Bavaria.
