EASES, Part III. by DR.. WILLIAM EVANS.--Hav-
ing in Part Il Qiven an accurate and explicit desCnp
ton Of the Pathology of two Of the most hml Genera
Of Human Diseases Msrasmus and DlarhGa In oil
their known varieties and indicated the most prooa-
BILE and approved means Of their cure, DR.. WILLIAM
EVANS proceeds TO inform the public OF the Pathole-
CIV of Others which but little understood by any
except the regular and well educated members Of the
medical profession In thus disseminating amGng the
been confined to the few he need not repeat that he
considers this information to be OF vital Importance
and inesdmable value to his fellow men. what can
be gilmore Importance to mankind III the present ire
than knowledge of those diseases which are con-
tirmally bringing il to a close? And OF what know
ledge ought mankind TO be 50 thoroughly possessed,
as q knowledge of the maladles to which Their own
persons are exposed The hrst diseases when Ut.
William Evans will describe in this Second Part OF his
Pathology, are of the species OF the Genus III
mosis OF Morbid Appetite, which forms the fifth &c.
nus Of the Order Enerica, OF the class Celaca and
treat of the principal diseases OF the digestive function
and Almentary canal Limosis Cardialagia or Car
dalgy, an impaired appetite, with gnawing or burn
ing pain in the stomach cpl gastrun, and tenden-
cy to faint. This species differs from dyspepsy,
which will be described in its proper order, al
though Cardlagy is sometimes an attendant OF Dys-
pepsia, as il is Of multitude of other complaints.
The first symptom is heartburn, gnawng or
burning uneasiness, chiefly felt near the cardia, with
a slight tendency to faint. The second symptom is
anxiety nausea coldncss Of the extremites, failure
of the strength and great tendency TO faint This
is called syncoptca, or sinking heartburn The third
symptom is an extension of the burning sensation
over the whole region of the stomach, accompanied
with the rising of watery fluid usually nsipid, bal
sometimes acnd, which is called the water trash.
The first symptom is most common and affects both
sexes. In the male, it's frequently caused by the use
Of spirtuous liquors. Obsructed persplration, depra-
we'd bile or excessive of purgative medicine. In
females by pregnancy, the use of too copious guam
ties of very warm or very cold drinks, animal fat
butter, decayed cheese, and sometimes by night
watching and of mind. In children II IS frequent
ly caused by worms and unrpe fruit.
The first remedy is good aromatic tonic, for
whilst magnesia and Soda which are commonlytl-
ken in this case, will seldom relieve it for more than
half an hour, two or three Of the CAMOMILE
PILLS, taken in a good draught of moderately warm
water have almost invariably accomplished a cure.
Their effect the heartburn of pregnancy, and OF
children, is always successful. Two OF these pills,
taken during the height of the symptoms will gene
rally relieve them Immediately, and two of the beau
ful APERIENT FAMILY PILLS, taken at bedtime,

tulency, impaired appetite, with an accumulation OF
wind in the stomach and intestinal canal and fire.
quent regurgitation Great restessness anxiety and
oppression attend this disease which has sometimes
produced not only Mysteries, but suffacatlon. 1t Is
frequently caused by drinking large quantity OF cold
fluid when the system is highly heated and by eat
ing cucmbers, radishes, salads, onions and other
raw vegetables. In young infants it arises from the
inability of their tender stonIachs to digest the great
quantity offoed with which they are overloaded and
the best remedy for it is to feed them for time
maternal milk alone. Adult persons Of either sex,
need only take a few of the CAMOMILE PILLS, to
experience speedy relief Their carmnative and aro-
matcproperes alone, independently of their high tonic
action would produce this effect with certainty and
speed. "
3. LIMOSIS EMESIS, or SICKNESS OF THE
STOMACH, rejection tendency TO reject its con-
tents In this malady, from whatever cause it may
arise, the efficacy of DR.. William Evans's Camomile
preparation is known both far and near. To married
ladies' especially, Who at interesting periods, all
subject to it, these pills have always proved choice
and favorite acquisition. If the nature of the circum
stances admitted Of certificates from these ladies' he
has no doubt but he could obtain many thousands in
this city alone and as is, every lady who has
them will not hesitate TO recommend them 10 anoth
er in the biehes, terms Of approval They are, how
ever equally eflicacios to oil persons Of any age OF
sax, who may be afflicted with sickness of the sto
mach Since single trial will prove this fact it j:
unnecessary to describe the scientific causes of he
happy efficacy in the case; one general cause, how
ever is their effect upon the seHsonal function gener
ally which is well known to be inseperably connect
ed with all disturbances Of the stomach.
