MEDICAL RECEIPTS.

Health may be as much injured by
interrupted and insufficient sleep, as by
! luxurant indulgence.
The debilitated require much more
rest than the robust; nothing is so re-
storative to the nerves as sound and
uninterrupted sleep.
The studious need full portion Of
sleep; which seems TO be as necessary
nutriment to the brain as food is TO
the stomach.
Our strength and spirits are infinite
ly more exhausted by the exercise of
our mental, than by the labor of our
corporeal facuIties-let any person try
the effect of intense application for a
few hours he will soon find how much
his body is fatigued thereby, although he
has not stirred from the chair he sat on.
Those who are candidates for health,
must be as circumspect in the task they
set their mind, as in the exercise they
give to their body. The grand secret
seems to be to contrive that the exer-
else of the body and that of the mind
NAV serve as relaxation TO each other.
Over exertion and anxiety of mind dis
iurb digestion infinitely more than any
fatigue of the body. The brain de-
mands much more abundant supply of
animal spirit than is required tor the
excitement OF mere legs and arms.
Those who possess and employ the
powers of the mind most seldom attain
to great age (see "Brunaud de PLY
giene des Gems de Lettres, Paris" 8yo,
1899 the envy their talents excite,
the disappointment they often meet
with in their expectations of receiving
The utmost attention and respect, which
the world has seldom the gratitude to
pay them while they live, keep them
| in a perpetual state of irritation and dis
quiet, which frets them prematurely TO
their graves.
To rest a whole day under fatigue
of either body or mind is occasionally
beneficial.
All healing sleep soon neutralizes the
corroding castle of care, and blunt:
even the barbed arrows of the marble
hearted fend, ingratitude.
Child of woe, lay thy head on the pill
low, finstead of thy mouth TO the bottle. }
The loss of our first and best friends
our parents, regret for the past, and
anxiety about the future, prevent the
enjoyment of the present-and are the
cause of those nervous and bilious dis
orders which attack most Of US at the
commencement of the third period o.
life-these precursors of palsy and gou
may generally be traced to disappont'
ments and anxiety Of mind.
Some cannot sleep if they eat any
supper-and, certainly, the lighter this
meal is, the better. Others need no
put on their night-cap, if they do no
first bride their stomachs to good beha
viour by a certain quantity of bread and
cheese and beer, sc. and go to bed i'm.

FsSHIS Machine was invented
"A by the Subscriber, in the summer of
1872, whilst confined to his bed with leg
badly fractured, and has subsequently been
introduced into various hospitals and private
families, where its usefulness has been sufi-
GENTLY attested, as will appear by the subioin
ed certificate. The Proprietor has had it in
successful operation in various cases of disease,
&c. such as fractured hips, thighs, legs, inflam-
matory rheumatism and fevers. Its mpor-
lance to society cannot be too highly appre.
Grated, when it is remembered that. by the
use OF the Alleviator, the bed of sickness and
distress is divested of many of IFS woes, and the
hours OF pain and wretchedness are rendered
more tolerahle, if not entirely Invested of their
fortunes. The inventor has obtained patent
tor the machine, and it is now offered for sale
10 humane and discriminating Pubick, on
liberal and accommodating terms.

The following certificate of DR.. Warren NAV

Mr.. J. c. JESKs having requested my O.
pinion OF his Machine for raising the sick and
wounded from bed. have examined it, and
found it we'll calculated for the purpose. In
order to test its practical utility, desired him
TO convey it to the Massachusetts, General
Hospital, and have repeatedly employed it
there, particularly in a case Of fractured thigh,
accompanied with delirium, and found it high.
ly useful. Considering it therefore a valua-
BILE invention, very heartily recommend it
for the use of hospitals, and for all private pa
tients who may be in need of it.
JOHN c. WARREN,

The above machine is SO constructed
that one person may with perfect ease raise
another, however heavy, from the bed, for the
purpose oimaking it or changing the linen, &c.
For sale or to be let by GREEN &

ing these Machines, are requested to call and

how entirely they had their own inter
ests at heart, & how generally their
pretended zeal and assiduity wore the
disguise of falsehood and flattery. This
discourse made change in some of
their countenances; and even the real
Monarch did not relish il altogether.
He was afraid it might have some ef-
feet upon his minions, and lessen the
tribute of adulation they were used to
offer with great profusion, when they
found how this wag observed and ami
madverted on it. But the monitor did
not stop here; he levelled particular
satire at the King, which put an end
TO the entertainment and made his Ma
iesly repent Of introducing it, some
foreigners Of distinction being present;
for it painted him in his true colours,
as one that never loved wise man nor
rewarded an honest one, unless they
sacrificed to his vanity, while he loaded
those who prostituted themselves 10
his will with wealth and honour, For
the mimic pointing directly to James
swho was to personate FergusonD raj
sing his voice, There, said he, Stands
man whom I would have you initiate:
the honest creature was the comrade Of
my childhood and regards me with
cordial affection to the present moment;
he has testified his friendship by all the
means in his power, studying my wei
fare, guarding me from evil counsel
lors, promoting me to princely actions
and warning me of every danger; for
all which he never asked me any thing;
and, by Jove, though l have squander-
ed thousands on several Of you, yet in
the whole course of my life, never
gave him farthing.' The King net
tied by his sarcasm, cried out to Fer
guson. 'Augh! you pauky loun; what
wad you be at? Ava aft my thrane,
and let's hac ma muri'o' your nainsance.
