 The human body cosists of solids and fluids | The former orlong structure is about one-fflh- The latter or soitpart five sixtbs. Man is nled to- gether by number oi orgaDs so beautifully arrang ed as 10 form periectchain in the animal economy One link of which when outof order is sufficient to destroy lhe harmony of the whole. These organs furnished with inn,merable blood vessels called arteries and veins, which have common centre.- The heart for propeiline through them the blood nntritive fluid to all parts of the systen,--be- ing furnished with valves which all III one di. reciion, the blood can ouly flow in corresponding conrse Thus il Is forced by the heart into the .artc- ries, and afer mostening the minute ibres il is received by the veins and brought again to the heart and performs again the round ofihe body and so on in succession. The of the blood is to rcceiye from the alimentary canal the skin, lungs, such mat ters as is necessary for the nourshmeut of man. and to convey to every par oihe body for the purpose of reparng it's wase, and increasing it's growth.
 But II any effect poisonous or foreign matter is car red into the blood several organs provided as the liver, kidneys skin and lungs through which this poi son is discharged from the blood in the form of bile urine, ,perspi and pulnonaryex From this retsketci oilnan sormaton the eigentrelderea easily understand how fever and inflammation is pro duced by suppression of precipitation for fpersra-
 ton be arrested ill consequence of cold, the 1erspra- bic matter will mix with the blood and give rise to inflammation In like manner, the discharge ofhile be arrested in it's flow from the liver is taken into the circulation and gives rise to iauolice, yellow fe , yer, &c. All diseases therefore have one coninn, origin, not impurity of blood, for that is only eff

 . Reader did you but know how fearlully and won derully youare constructed-how beautifullythe Gre

During sleep, wher your mental faculties inactive, and your soul up pears to be in a of repose then is the wise pro- vision and fore knowledge ofIhe author nature made maiiest. The heart continues pour it's vita stream to every part of the bodythe lungs perform helr Oice-respiration Is continued and the blood ] decarbonized-the skin pours out from its myriads of pores the poisonous matter of the blood-diges on continues, and the nutrtye particles of food carried into the blood for the renovation of man Were all the organs of the body therefore under the control of the will, when we slept the heart would cease to pusate, death would necessary conse quence follow-the lungs would cease to perform their oce-suiiocation and death be the consequence precipitation or digestion be interrupted. ihe effect. of which would be perpetual disease.
 Reader you know perhaps better than you ever knew before, the vast importance of keeping i, these organs necessary life in healthy state You will also place less reliance on the pretension, of ignorant and uneducated men, especially whrr they attempt meddle with diseases they know moth , ing of. You will likewise appreciate the services O the skilful medical practitioner, who has labored fol years in the study of science through all its mi nue. and who offers for your benefit the resul of his long and arduous lsbors ask if you possesset a watch sf five dollars "alue, and it of repair would you take it to tinker to have il in order No; you would surely carry it good wachmaker How much more difficult then is the putting in orde of the human body when out ot repair. A watch ma, stop, it can be set going agail-f mans mach ner once stops, it stops forever No human power cal ever again set il in motion.
 You may always expect fever and ill-health to fol low the soppage of any of the tions. If ex cept, says Van Swieton, those who perish by vioen death, and such exnguished by old age, all h die of Inflammation, caused by suppression of on, or o.her ofihe secretons.

When you abo under disease matter of what nature, whether ma lignant otherwise, and you take Calomel from Physician. does he not always ask you your bow els free is De aspiration reeis the secre ion of urine abundant---o if you have pain what. ask you, those inquiries but barely to ascertain if the secre tons duly performed. Ifthey are wellperformed then your doctor is puzzled as to the nature of you disease. lfthey arc duly performed, he then e moves any obstruction This is the great secret ofou , profession, and thus we define reputation when 7t only assist in restoring the natural secreions The great difficulty in ,he practice of medicine wa the proper application of combination of medical ar tcles lcula,ed to instructions and ] same time upon all the secretions.
