HOW OUR SOLDIERS SHOULD BE PREpARED
TO FIGHT.
Hedith and DiSciglinc.

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 propellug force
Of the army, and is the symbol OF victory.
II is, therefore, ofthe greatest importance. that
the system of medication best adapted tor the pro-
lection OF soldiers against sickness, as well as that
known to be the most speedy and effect Ial IN
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
fessIonal preju0ice, be adopted.
This IL no time Tor medical martinets 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 thus desIderatum IS through the remedial
powers of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF,
which has already proved itself in over fifty rcgl
mcnts now at the seat OF war near Washington, to
be positive prevention against sickness IN the
form of
Chills and Fever Fever and Aguc
Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever,
DarhTa, Dysentery,
Small POY Measles,
and other malarIOus and infectious diseases.
Bear IN mind, we say, that Rdduay'S ReGdy Re.
lief 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 evers, either die, or niger along
| until they are reduced TO mere wrecks and walk
| ing skeletons. Experience has established the
| fact that the treatment of Caomel, qurine and
mercury, in cases OF fever and ague typhoid fever
and other fevers Of this class, is more injurious III
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 NAV readily conjecture that the penalties
of mercurlal and quinlne treatment will, in the
majority ofCases be exhibited in the form of rheu-
matism neuralgia, pains and stiffness in the joints,
engagements of the liver, jauDdiee, yellow jaun-
ders, dyspepsia, pleurIsy, coughs, colds, &c,
which will cling TO the unfortunate patient for
| years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
lacks ofthesc diseases.
Let every soldier carry DO tie of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
HIS gNAPsAcK,
| and when exposed to wet damp and chilly weather.
or encamped IN malarlous districts, take tea
| spoonful, IN half cup OF water, as drink, early
IN the morning before eating, and three or four
| times during the dUy and, If on picket or guard
DUTY, occasionally during the night, he will escape
all sickness, and continue to enjoy good health.
WHEN SICK,
ct Railways Ready Relief and Railways Regulat
| ing Pills be used according to directions, and the
| patient will soon recover. Or. Railways Renee
| dies make perfect cure
