The preceding, figure is given to represent
the INSENSiBLE PERSPlRATlON 1t is
the great EVACUATION for the impurities
Of the body. 1t will be noticed that Tick
cloudy mist issues from all points Of the sur
face, which indicates that this respiration flows
uninterruptedly when in health, but ceases
when we are sick. Lite cannot be sustained
without it. 1t is thrown off from the blood &
OTHER juices of the body, and disposes by this
meaAs, of nearly all the impurities within us.
The language Of Scripture is, In the BLOOD
is the Life If ever becomes impure it may
be traced directly to the stoppage ofINsENsl-
BLE PERSPIRATION. 1t meuer requires amy
internal medicines to ceanse it,asit always puri-
fies itself by its own heat and action, and throws
off all the offending humors, through the IN
SENSIBLE PRESERVATION. Thus we
see, chat all that is necessary when the blood
is stagnant, or infected, is to open the pores
and it relieves iself:r all impurity instantly.
It's own heat and vitality are sufficient, with
out one particle Of medicine, except to open
the pores upon the surface. Thus we see
the folly of taking SO much internal remedies

Hydropathist shrouds us in wet blankets, the
Homopathist deals out infnitissimals, the All
opathist bleeds and doses us will. mercury, &
the clustering Quack gorges us with pills.
To give some idea Of the amount of IN
SENSIBLE PERsPlRATION, we will state
that the learned DR.. Lewenhock, and the
great Boerhaave, ascertained that hve-eighths
Of all we receive into the stomach, passed of
by this means In other words. if we eat and
drink eight pounds per day, we evacuated
FIVE pounds Of it by the Insensible Perspra'
ton. This is none other than the used up
particles of the blood and other juices, giving
place to the new and fresh ones. To check
this, therefore, is to retain in the system FIVE
eghss OF all the vruent matter tina: nature
demands should leave the body. The blood
is of SO active principle that it determines
those particles to the skin, where they form
scabs, pimples. ulcers and other spots. BY a
sudden transition from heat to cold, the pores
are stopped, perspiration ceases. and disease
begins at once to develop itself Hence. a
stoppage of the flow of the juices, originates
so many complaints. 1t is by stopping the
pores that overwhelms mankind with coughs,
colds aud consumptions. Ninetenths of tie
world die from diseases induced by stoppage
of the INSENSlBLE PERSPlRATION.-
Let me ask cow, every candid mind, what
course seems the most reasonable to pursue, to
unsto2 the pores Of the skin. after they are
closed Would you give nhysic to UNSTOP
the pores. Or wou;A you apply something
that would do this upon the surface, where
the clogging actually is Would not this be
common sense And yet know Of no ply

affect it. The reason assign is, that no med
