Do you consider it better to use the enema than to take a mild
aperient? I do not want to start with the enema again if I can
possibly manage to do without, because I found that my bowels
depended upon it. And that is why I want to ask if it is
absolutely necessary when on an antiseptic diet to entirely avoid
fruit. I find it so necessary to keep the bowels working
naturally.

THE CLIMAX

December 4th, 2008

THE CLIMAX.–It has been said that a man is never utterly ruined
until he has married a bad woman. So the climax of woman”s miseries
and sorrows may be said to come only when she is bound with that bond
which should be her chiefest blessing and her highest joy, but which
may prove her deepest sorrow and her bitterest curse.

It is a trite saying, that health is harmony

December 4th, 2008

It is a trite saying, that health is harmony. But I plead for a much
wider and fuller interpretation of harmony than is customary. _Mens
sana in corpore sano_–a sane mind in a healthy body–does not fill
all the requirements of a healthy life. It is but an excellent theme,
wanting orchestration.

If this is true, it would follow that the treatment of all diseases is
about the same. For instance, it would be necessary to give about the
same treatment for eczema as for pneumonia. Basically, that is exactly
what has to be done to obtain the best results, though the variation in
location and manifestation requires that special relief measures, of
lesser importance, be used in special cases, to get the quickest and
best results. In both eczema and pneumonia the essential thing is to get
the body clean.

DOMESTIC MANAGEMENT OF FEVERS

December 3rd, 2008

DOMESTIC MANAGEMENT OF FEVERS. It is proper to make a thorough study of
the early, insidious symptoms of fever, in order to understand what
ought to be done. If it arises in consequence of malaria, the treatment
must be suited to the case. If from irritation of the bowels and
improper articles of diet, then a mild cathartic is required. If there
is much inflammation, a severe chill, and strong reaction, then the
treatment should be active. If the fever is of the congestive variety
and the constitution is feeble, the reaction imperfect, a small, weak
pulse, a tendency to fainting, a pale countenance, and great pain in the
head, apply heat and administer diaphoretics, and procure the services
of a good physician.

THE POLICY OF SILENCE

December 3rd, 2008

THE POLICY OF SILENCE.–there is no greater delusion than to
suppose that vast number of boys know nothing about practices of sin.
Some parents are afraid that unclean thoughts may be suggested by
these very defences. The danger is slight. Such cases are barely
possible, but when the untold thousands are thought of on the other
side, who have been demoralized from childhood through ignorance, and
who are to-day suffering the result of these vicious practices,
the policy of silence stands condemned, and intelligent knowledge
abundantly justified. The emphatic words of scripture are true in this
respect also, ‘the people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.’

TREATMENT

December 3rd, 2008

TREATMENT. The first step should be to eliminate from the system, as
speedily as possible, all noxious materials. For this purpose, the
spirit-vapor bath should be used. If the urine is scanty or voided with
difficulty, take acetate of potash or queen of the meadow. These may be
taken in connection with the Golden Medical Discovery and Purgative
Pellets, the efficacy of which has already been described in the
treatment of chronic inflammation of the liver. They are indeed valuable
agents in this disease, since they increase the action of all the
excretory glands, and rapidly remove those matters, which, if retained,
would poison the system.

December 3rd, 2008

In the end, M. the Marshal died of his hepatic flux. He being
dead, the King sent M. the Marshal d”Annebaut to be in his place:
who did me the honour to ask me to live with him, and he would
treat me as well or better than M. the Marshal de Montejan. Which
I would not do, for grief at the loss of my master, who loved me
dearly; so I returned to Paris.

or symptoms, and, by reason of this fact, we have been enabled to
originate and perfect a system of determining with the greatest accuracy
the nature of chronic diseases without seeing and personally examining
our patients. In recognizing diseases without a personal examination of
the patient, we claim to possess no miraculous powers. We obtain our
knowledge of the patient”s disease by the practical application of
well-established principles of modern science to the practice of
medicine. And it is to the accuracy with which this system has endowed
us that we owe our almost world-wide reputation for the skillful
treatment of all lingering, or chronic, affections. This system of
practice, with the marvelous success which has been attained through it,
demonstrates the fact that diseases display certain phenomena, which,
being subjected to scientific analysis, furnish abundant and
unmistakable data to guide the judgment of the skillful practitioner
aright in determining the nature of diseased conditions.
