EASES, Pur ii. by DR.. WILLIAM EvANS.-Hav.
ing in Part l. given accssale and explicit descrp
ton of the Pathology Of TWO Of the mostatal Geners
Of Human Diseases, Marasnsus and Diarrh0a IN all
their known varieties and Indicated The most proba-
BILE and approved mcans of their cure, DR.. WILLIAM
EVANS proceeds to inform thepubic of the Pathole-
gy of Others, which are but little understood by any
except the regular and well educated members Of the
medical profession. In thus disseminating among the
many, branch Of knowledge which has hitherto
been confined to the few he need not repeat that he
considers this information to be Of vital importance
and nestmable value 10 his fellow men. What c.n
be OF more importance mankind ia the present life
than knowledge of those diseases which are con-
tirrally bringing II TO close And OF what KNOW
ledge ought mankind TO be 50 thoroughly possessed,
as knowledge of the maladies to which their own
persons are exposed The first diseases which DR..
William Evans will describe in this Second Part Of his
Pathology, are some OF the species of the Genus III
mosis OF Morbid Appetite which forms the fifth Ge-
nus OF the Order Enenca, the class Celiaca and
treat of the principal diseases ofthe digestive function
and Amentary canal. Limosis Cardalagia or Car
dialgy, an impaired appetite, with gnawing or burn
cy to faint. This species differs from dyspepsy,
which will be described in its proper order, al
though Cardialgy is sometimes an attendant Of Dys-
pepsla as il is Of multitude of other complaints.
The first symptom is heartburn, gnawing or
burning uneasness, chiefly felt near the cardia, with
slight tendency to faint. The second symptom is
extension of the pain to the pit of the stomach
anxiety, nausea, GOODNESS of the exuemities, faure
OF the strength, and great tendency 10 faint. This
is called syncopca 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 insipid bat
sometimes acnd, which is called the water trash.
The first symptom is most common and affects both
sexes. In the male il is frequently caused by the use
of spirituous liquors, obsructed perspiration depra
we'd bile, or excessive of purgative medicine. In
females, by pregnancy the use # too copious guam
ties of very warm very cold drinks, animal fat
watching and care ofmind. In children tbs frequent.
ly caused by worms and unnpe fruit.
The first remedy is a good aromatic tonic, for
whilst magnesa and soda, which are commonly IT,
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 draHght of moderately warm
water, have almost invariably accomplished a cure.
Their effect on the heartburn of pregnancy, and OF
children, always successful. Two of these pills,
taken during the height of the symptoms will gene
rally relieve them Immediately, and two of the beau
full APERIENT FAMILY PILLS. taken at bedtime,
will remove il for considerable time even in habits
that most subject TO it. 2. Lmoss Fatas, or Fla
tulency, impaired appetite with accumulation OF

quent regurgitation. Great restessness anxiety and
oppression attend this disease which has sometimes
produced not only Mysteries, but suflocaon. 1t is
frequently caused by drinking large quantity of cold
fluid when the system is highly heated and by eat
ing cucHmbers, radshes salads onions and other
raw vegetables In young infants it arises from the
inability of their tender stonachs digest the great
quantity ffosd with which they are overloaded and
the best remedy for it is to feed them for time on
maternal milk alone Adult persons of either SEX
need only take few Of the CAMOMILE PILLS, to
experience speedy relief Their carmnative and aro-
maticpropertes alone Independently of their high tonic
action would produce this effect, with certainty and
speed.
3. LIMOSIS EMESIS, or SICKNESS OF THE
STOMACH, rejection or tendency 10 reject its con
tents. In this malady, from whatever cause il may
arise, the efficacy of DIR. William Eyans's Camomilt
preparation is known both far and near. To married
ladies' especially who, interesting periods are al
subject to it, these pills have always proved choict
and favore acquisition. IL the nature of the circum
stances admitted Of certificates from these ladies' hi
has no doubt but he could obtain many thousands In
this city alone; and il is, every lady who has tret
them will not hesitate to recommend them TO anoth
er in the highest terms ofapproval. They are, how
ever equally eficacious to all persons of any age OF
sex, who may be afflicted with sickness of the sto
mach. Since single trial will prove this fact, II is
unnecessary to describe the scientific causes of the
happy efficacy in the case general cause, how.
