blood, and therefore all diseases originate in II
but modern science ayers that ailments have
their origination in both the solids and fluids OF
the body. That the latter preponderates how

source in an

seases of any kind. These are ascertalned by
well known medical laws, to arise from bad
blood-while the highest medical authorities
declare that most fevers originate in the same
manner, and more particularly Typhoid and
scarIet-the former being an internal, and the
latter an irruOtive disease; and in all persons
attacked by these malades, the blood is found
