HOW OUR SOLDIERS SHOULD BEL PREPARED
TO FIGHT.
Heath and DiScipline.
Health and discipline the most important
elements in an army to ensure success. Discipline
without health will prove Intellectual as shot
without powder. Health is the propelling force
81 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, as well as that
known to be the most speedy and etiectIal IN re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
iessOnal prejudice, be adopted.
This Is 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 condition; 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 req
mcnts now at the seat of war near Washington, to
be 4 positive prevention against sickness IN the
form Of
Chls and Fever, Fever and Ague
Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever,
DIarhTa, Dyscntcry,
Small pOx Measles,
and other malarious and infectious diseases
Bear in mind, We say, that hddUay'S Ready Re-
lief will protect the troops exposed to these dis
eases against attacks. Now, II 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 ievers, either die, niger along
al
ing skeletons. Experience has established the
fact that the treatment of calomeI, qulrne and
mercury, in cases OF fever and ague, typhoid fever
and other cyers 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,pr prove but poor shelter for the
sick, we may readily conjecture that the penalties
OF mercural and qulnIne treatment viii, IN the
majority OF cases, be exhibited IN the form of rhru-
matIsn neuralgia, pans and stiffness in the Joints
engagements of the liver, jaundice, yellow iaun.

which will cling to the unfortunate patient for
years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
tacks of these diseases.
