EASES, Part III. by DR.. WILLIAM EVANS.-hav-
ton Of the Pathology Of TWO q ths most Gsnera
Of Human Diseases Marasmns and D,anh@a, IN all
their known varieties and Indicated the most proba
Bile and approved means Of their cure, DR. WILLIAM
EVAN proceeds to inform the public OF the Pathols-
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, a branch of knowledge which has hitherto
been confined the few, he need not repeat that he
considers this information to be of vital importance
and inestimable value to his fellow men. What can
be of more importance to mankind in the present life
than knowledge OF those diseases which are con-
tnually bringing it to a 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 ofhis
Pathology are some of the species Of the Genus Lii
moss, OF Morbid Appetite which forms the fifth Ge-
of the Order EYierca, of the class Cnliaca and
trea, Of the principal diseases of the digestive function
and Almentary canal. Limosis Cardialagia or Car
dlalgy, an impaired appetite, with gnawng or burn
ing pain in the stomach or epigastrium and tenden-
cy to faint. This species differs from dyspepsy
which will be described in its proper. order, al
though Cardialgy IS sometimes an attendant efDys-
pepsia, as it is of multitude of other complaints
The first symptom is heartburn, gnawing or
burning uneasincss chiefly felt the cardla with
slight tendency to faint. The second symptom is
an extension OF the pam to the PIT OF the stomach

of the strength, and great tendencys faint. This
is called syncopuca or sinking heartburn. The third
symptom is extension of the burning sensation
over the whole region of the stomach, accompanied
with the rising of waery fluid usually insipd, bat
sometimes acnd, which IS called the water trash.
The first symptom is most common, and affects both
sexes. In the male it is frequently caused by the
of spirtuous liquors, obstructed perspration depra-
we'd bile, excessive use 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 care Ofmlnd In children freqnent-
ly caused by worms and unrlpc fruit
The first remedy is good aromatic tonic, for
whilst magnesa and soda, which are commonly l.
ken in this case, will seldom relieve it for more than
half hour two three of the CAMOMILE
PILLS, taken in a good draaght of moderately warm
water, have almost invariably accomplished cure.
Their effect on the heartburn of pregnancy, and of
children, IS always successful Two Of these pills,
taken during the height of the symptoms will gene

oppression attend this disease which has sometimes
produced not only Mysteries, but sufiocahOn. 1t is
frequently caused by drinking large quantity of cold
fluid when the system is highly heated; and by eat
ing cucHmbers radishes, Salads onions and other
raw vegetables In young Infants 1t arises from the
inability OF their tender SonachS to digest the great
quantity of foed 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 CAMOMII.E 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.
