The Journal Of Health is periodical which we al
ways announce with pleasure to readers, on the
appearance of each successive number. Its object is
good aud its articles good, containing not only
an abundance Of excellent precepts, but those so
agrceably forth and illustrated, and so various in
their character that they copno fail to accomplish
what have been pronounced tho two great ends of au
thorship instruction and amusement. The editors
know how TO seize hold Of attention, and win men to
their side. They do not attempt to drive them by
long and tedious dsqulsilion on abstract points Of
medicines but deal out, instead, short practical hints
and plain rules Of conduct which all can appreciate
