Health and Discipline.


Health and discipline are the most important
elements IN an army to ensure success. Discipline
without health will prove Intellectual as shot
without powder. Health is the propeing force
OF the army, and is the symbol of victory.
1t is, therefore, ofthe greatest Importance that
the system OF medication best adapted tor the pro-
lection OF soldiers against sickness, well as that
known to be the most speedy and electuaI IN re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
tesslonal prejudice, be adopted.
This is no time tor medical marncts to qubblc
! 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 condition; and the most sure means OF
curing this dcsideratum 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
| form of
| Chills and Fever, Fever and Ague,
| Bilious ever Typhoid Fever,
Diarhua, Dyscncry,
| Small PoX Measles,
I and other malarIOus and infectious diseases
Bear IN mind, we say, that Rdd,cGy'S Reddg Re
! iJ will protect the troops exposed to these dis
eases against attacks Now, 1t is conceded by all
the medical 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, on the contrary, the majority
OF the sick, seized with fever and ague, typhoid,
bilious and other fevers, 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 ca0mel, quIrine and
mercury, III cases OF fever and ague, typhoid fever
ana other levers OF this class, is more injurious IN
camps than IN private practice, when 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 mercural and quinIne 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, jaundicc, yellow iaun-
ders, dyspepsia, pleursy, coughs, colds, &c,
which will cling to the unfortunate patient for
years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
tacks Of these diseases.
Let every soldier carry a bottle Of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
IN HIS SNAPsAcK,
and when exposed to wet, damp and chilly weather
or encamped IN malarous districts, take a tea
spoonful, in half cup OF water, as a drink early
IN the morning before eating, and three or four
times during the duy; and, il on picket or guard
duty occasionally duilDg the night ,he will escape
all sickness, and continue 10 enjoy good health
WHEN SICK,
ct Railways Ready Relief and Railways Repulat
ing Pills be used according to directions and the
patient will soon recover. DR.. Railways Renee
dies make perfect cure
