HeaiM and Discjpline.
Health and discipline are the most important
elements IN an army to ensure success. DISCIPLINE
without health viii prove as Intellectual as shot
without powder. Health IS the propellng force
df the army, and is the symbol OF victory.
1t IS, therefore, Otthc greatest importance, that
the system OF medication best adapted tor the pro-
lection OF soldiers against sickness, well as that
known I" bc the most speedy and c.icctIu IN re-
storing the SICK to health, without regard TO pro-
ICssloual prejudice, be adopted.
This is no time for medical martiucts to bubble
about professional dignity. All the dignity the
profession can bring TO bear Will neither prevent
sickness among the troops nor cure those afflicted
Our armies, to be successful. must be kept IN
healthy condition; and the most sure means of Sc
curing this desldcratum is through the remedial
powers of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF,
which has already proved Itsclrin over fifty req
ments now at the seat OF war near Washington, to
be positive prevention against sickness in the
form Of
Chs and Fever, Fever and Apur,
Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever,
DaThUa, Dyscncry,
Small POx Measles,
and other malarlous and infectious diseases
Bear IN mind, we say, that RGdiray'S ReGdu Re-
hJ will protect the troops exposed to these dis
eases against attacks. Now, It is conceded by all
'Ht HltuI'al men III our army, thdt thew have
reliable means OF preventing attacks OF these DIS
eases, neither have they any positive assurance Of
curing the sICk but, the contrary, the majority
OF the SICK, seized with fever and aguC, typhoid.
bilious and other ieyers, either die. or niger along
until they are reduced to mere wrecks and walk
ing skeletons. Experience has established the
TACT that the treatment Of CalOmel, qulrine and
mercury, IN cases of fever and aguc II phod fever
and other tcvcrs of this class, IS more injurious IN
camps Than IN private practice, when we take INTO
consideration that canvass walls and exposure to
heavy dcws and the malaria from pools of water
and damp grounds prove but poor shelter for the
sick, We may readily conjecture that the penalties
of mercurlal and qulnIne treatment will, IN the
majority OF cases, be exhibited in the form of rheu-
masm ,ncuraga, pans and stiffness in the Joints,
engagements Of the liver jaundIec, yellow iaun-
ders, dyspepsia, pIeurlsy, coughs, colds, &c,
which Will cling to the unfortunate patient for
years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has n positive preventive against at
tacks o'these diseases.
Let every soldier carry bottle of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
IN HIS ENApsAcK,
and when exposed to wet damp and chiIlywcather,
or encamped IN maiarIous districts, take tea
spoonful, IN half cup OF water rs drink early
IN the morning before eating, and three or four
times during the dBy; and, IT on picket or guard
duty, occasionally DUNG the night he Will escape
all sickness, and continue TO enjoy good health
WHEN SICK,
ct Railways Ready Relief and Radway's Kegulat
ing Pills be used according to directions and tho
patient Will soon recover. Dr.. Railways Renee
dies make a perfect cure
In cases Of
rheumatism, Neuralgia,
Lumbago, Sclatica

Influenza, Coughs
Toothache, Headache

FROSTED Feet, CyUblalGs.
SwcIhngs ofthe JOINTS, Pains IN the Legs
&c, &c.
Group. Measles.

and in all cases where there is pain, Radwav,s
Ready Relief Will afford immediate case and
quickly cure the patient.
