HOW OUR SOLDIERS SHOULD BE PREPARED
TO FIGHT.
Health and Discipline.
Health and discipline are the most important
elements in an army TO ensure success. Discipline
without health will prove as Intellectual as shot
without powder. Health is the propelling force
of the army, and is the symbol of victory.
II is, therefore, ofthe greatest importance, that
the system of medication best adapted for the pro-
lection OF soldiers against sickness, well that
known to be the most speedy and effect nal in re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
tesslUnal prejudice, be adopted
THIS is no time Tor medical martIHets 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 a
healthy conditions and the most sure means OF Sc
curing this desderatum is through the remedial
powers of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF,
which has already proved itself in over fifty regi
ments now at the seat OF war near Washington, to
be 4 positive prevention against sickness in the
form OF
Cbills and Fever, Fever and Ague,
Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever,
Dlarhpa, Dysentery,
Small Por Measles,
and other malarous and infectious diseases.
Bear in mind, we say, that Radway'S Ready Re-
hg will protect the troops exposed to these dis
eases against attacks. Now, 1t is conceded by all
The medlral men in our army, that they have no
reliable means of preventing attacks OF these DIS
eases, neither have they any positive assurance of
curing the sick; but, Oh the contrary, the ma orty
| of the sick, seized with fever and ague, typhoid,
bilious and other evers either die, niger along
until they are reduced to mere wrecks and walk
ing skeletons. Experience has established the
fact that the treatment of ca lionel, uUIpIup and
mercury, in cases OF fever and ague, typhoid fever
and other levers 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 poor shelter for the
sick, we may readily conjecture that the penalties
| OF mercural and qunne treatment will, in the
majority OF cases, be exhibited in the form of rheu
matlsm neuralgia, pains and stiffness in the joints,
| engagements OF the liver, aundee, yellow laun-
| ders, dyspepsia, pleurisy, coughs, colds, &c,
which will cling to the unfortunate patient for
Years.
