Hedh and discipline.
Health aud discipline are the most important
elements IN an army 10 ensure success. Discipline
without health will prove Intellectual as shot
without powder. Health is the propclll. ! force
Of the army, and is the symbol Of victory.
II ~, therefore, ofthc greatest importance, that
the system OF medication best adapted tor the pro-
lection OF soldiers against sickness, well as that
known to hc the most speedy and effect AL ~ re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
icsslona prejudice, be adopted.
This Is no time tor medical martiurts To qulbbl.
about professional dignity. All the dignity the
profession can bring to bear will neither prevent
sickness among the troops cure those afflicted.
Our armies, 10 he successful, must be- kept IN q
healthy conditions; and the most sure means of Sc
curing tins desIdcratum is through the remedial
powers of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF,
which has already proved itself IN over fifty req
ments now at the seat Of war near Washington. TO
be positive prevention against sickness IN the
torn of
Chs and Fever, Fever and Ague.
Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever
Diarhua, Dyseutcrv
Small pO& Measles
and other malarIous and infections diseases.
Bear IN mind, We say, that RGdUdy'S RedGy Re-
LIEF Will protect the troops exposed to these dis
eases against attacks. Now, IT is conceded by all
The medral men III our army, that they have no
reliable means OF preventing attacks az these DIS
eases, neither have they any positive assurance of
curing the sick; but, on tue contrary, the majority
OF the SICK, seized with fever and aguc, typhoid,
bilious and other feyers, 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 calomcl, quIrlnc and
mercury IN cases OF fever and ague, typhoid fever
and other icvers of this class, Is more injurious IN
camps than IN private practice, when we take into
consideration that canvass walls and exposure to
heavy dews and the malaria from pools of water
and damp grounds, prove but a poor shelter for the
sick, We may readily conjecture that the penalties
OF mercnral and quinine treatment VIII, IN the
majority of cases, be exhibited the form of rhcu-
lnatsm ,ncuralga pal"s and stiffness IN the JOINTS,
engagements of the liver, Jaundee, yellow Jaun-
ders, dyspepsia, pleurIsy, coughs, colds, &c,
which will cling 10 the unfortunate patient for
Years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
tacks oithcse diseases.
Let every soldier carry bottle Of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
IN HIS vNAPsACK,
and when exposed to wet damp and llywea,her,
or encamped IN maIarlous DISTRICTS take a tea
spoonful, IN half cup of water, a drink, early
in the morning before eating, and three or four
times during the dBy; and, If on picket or guard
duty, occasionally DUNG the night he will escape
az 81, ""'''' anu continue 10 eiJ"y soou ne"''"'
