WHAT to EAT, DRINK, and AVOID;
With Diet Tables for all Complaints.
Contents :—How to ensure perfeet digestion, tranquil celings, a
good night's rest, a clear head, and a oontented mind. By an ob-
servance of the instructions herein container: the feeble, the ner-
vously delicate, even to the most shattered constitution, may acquire
the greatest amount of physical happiness, and reach in health the
full period of life allotted to man.
" How we should live—what eat, what drink, what shun,
To reach in health full threescore years and ten."
These interesting little volumes, although bearing upon subjects of
very delicate import, as their titles imply, will be found of immea-
surable and general utility, for they tell of matters every living crea-
ture able to understand ought to know, but which information in
these enlightened times, except that quality promulgated through
questionable channels, is at a very terrible discount.
In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of
nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not
contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician
any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we
should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws
whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy
states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual
capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and
happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.
By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted,
health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness
within the attainment of all; by the availment hereof in fulfilling
our duty to ourselves, we secure the lilt e advantages on our offspring
to follow, and filially by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in-
consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may
be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest
of God's creations.
The author's justification for this seeming eulogy of his own writ-
ings, and the avowal of their integrity of purpose, must be measured
by their perusal—his accredited qualifications guarantee that the
topics broached involve his legitimate study and pursuit.
