brane or excretories of the skin, a gentle and
fectual perspiration will be kept up; and, undeI
every combination of circumstances, il will act
more or less as a cathartic. Here il is proper
to remark, that although the purgative always
induces an increased number OF alvine evacus-
tons, and is capable of overcoming the most
obstinate cases OF costiveness, it does not Taiss
a " hurricane'' in the bowels, nor waste the
healthy juices by over-action. Its effects ex-
tend to every part Of the system, and for that
reason are not liable to over action in any part.
The inestimable value of a medicine winch
will act on all the excretories, at one and the
same time, is more apparent when we reflect
that the human body is a complicated machine,
consisting Of numbcrless different and distinct
members, all of which are so intimately con-
nected, and mutually descendant, that no one
part, can be injured without producing a cor
responding degree of injury on every other
part; therefore, one part of the body cannot be
diseased, and another part healthy; neither can
one part be cured while another part remains
diseased. Disease begins in the blood, and rs
the blood flows to every part of the systemy
every part of the system must become more or
less. diseased; no disease is cured unless tho
cause is removed, and TO remove the cause We
must restore the blood to a healthy state, and
if the blood is made healthy, every part Of the
body must be The same.
We have now illustrated the natural or In
dian system of practice, and the more 1t Is in
vestigated the more reasonable it appears; n
regards its truth, we have only to reflect that IL
was taught by NATURE, and therefore must be
true. When the body stands in need Of nour-
ishment, we are impelled by hunger to eat; aud
when it is ID diseased, we are impelled by instinct
to use medicine; aud there cannot he a doubt
that if we lived in a state Of nature, this III
stinciive feeling would always direct AS la tho
PROPER MEDICINE: hence the %superio,i
ty of the Indian System. The art of healing
was first learned in the woods, and to this day
the untutored savage is the best medical teach
err; for the Indian practice is the only one which
is consonant TO those eternal and immuiablc
laws which govern the animal economy.
= Having already proved that the Indian Pur-
:. gative acts in direct accordance with the
/ LAWS OF NATURE and is therefore equal
TO the cure of epery durable disease, we Will
now ennmeraie a few Of the complaints for
which it has been tried, and found a certain
cure among the Indians, and white ~settlers of
/, the Far West. These are Intermittent, Re-
militant, Nervous, lnfiammatory, and PutrEi
| Fevers; Measles, Erysipelas, and SMALLPOX;
= Infammations Of the Brain, of the Throaf, OF
: the Stomach, Of the Lungs, of the Liver, "f
5 the Intestines, the Kidneys, aud the Bladder;
= Rheumatism, both Acute and Chronic, Splitting
: and Vomiting of Blood, Diarrhpa, Dysente-
. ry, and Coles; Syncopc, Apoplexy, and Fara-
: lvsis; Dyspepsia, aud Hypochondl iasis; Teta-
e nus, Epilepsy, Hooping-Cough, Asthma aud
G Palpitation of the Heart; lncipient ConsumP
: ton, ard Maramus; Dropsy of the Head, the
!, Chest, the Abdomen and the Limbs; Scrofula.
: Scurvy, and Syphilis; Bronchocele and Can
J, Ger, Gravel and Strangury, Loss of Appetite,
e Costiveness, Sick headache, Flatulency, Pains
d in the Stomach, Pains in the Back and Side.
and other complaints of the Kidneys aud Liv-
= eI; Ulcers and Sores of every description; Hys-
: teIicks, Weak Nerves and Lowness Of Spirits,
r as well as Leucorrhoea, Menonhoea, suppress
G sion, and other delicate female complaints. Be
i sides the above, il has been found invaluable in
r, the diseases of Infants, so that in the new set
II Elements of the Far West, where the inbabii-
If ants keep it constantly beside them, the chill
IS dren are brought up in good health, without
s. ana assistance from Medical Men. To sum
e up the character of the Indian Purgative in
g few words, il is only necessary to state, that II
possesses every curative property that can be
e possessed by medicine, viz: the poweIof open
re ing and keeping open all the natural drains OF
T. the body; and therefore, if persevered with a
IN reasonable time will most efiectually assist ma
ture TO cure every variety Of disease.
