HOW OUR SOLDIERS SHOULD BE pREpAREp
TO FIGHT.
Health and DiSciDliae.

~ FIGHT.
HeaM 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 prOpcllluu force
df 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 as well az that
known to be the most speedy and eilcctla in re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
iessunal prejudice, be adopted.
This is no time for 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, Stnust be kept in a
healthy condition; and the most sure means of Sc
curing this deslderatum is through the remedial
powers of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF,
which has already proved itself in over fifty regl
ments now at the seat OF war near Washington, to
be \ positive prevention against sickness in the
! form Of
| Chs and Fever, Fever and Ague,
| Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever.
| DiarhRa, Dssentery
| Small Pox Measles,
and other malarious and infectious diseases
Bear in mind, we say, that RddUdg'S ReQdv Re-
iiet will protect the troops exposed to these dis
! eases against attacks. Now, IL 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 ievcrs, either die, niger along
! until they are reduced to mere wrecks and walk
ing skeletons. Experience has established the
fact that the treatment of alomel, quirine and
mercury, IN cases OF fever and ague, typhoid fever
and other ievers 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 qulnine treatment will, in the
majority OF cases, be exhibited in the form of rheu-
matism, neuralgia, pains and stiffness in the Joints,
engagements Of the liver, Jaundec, yellow aun-
ders, dyspepsia, pIcurIsy, coughs, colds &c,
which will cling to the unfortunate patient for
wears.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
taCks ofthese diseases.
Let every soldier carry a bottle Of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
IN HIS SNAPsAcK,
and when exposed to wet, damp and chillyweather,
or cncamped IN malarious districts, take tea
spoonful IN half a cup OF water, as drink, early
in the morning before eating, and three or four
times during the dpy and, II on picket or guard
duty, occasionally duling the night he will escape
all sickness, and continue to enjoy good health.
WHEN SICK,
ct Railways Ready Relief and Railways Rcgulat
| ing Pills be used according to directions and the
! patient will soon recover DR.. Railways Renee
dies make perfect cure
In cases of
rheumatism, Neuralgia,
| Lumbago, SClatICa,
Hoarsencss, Dipethera,
| Influenza, Coughs,
ToOthache, Headache,
Sore Throat, Difficult Breathing,
Frosted Feet, Chlblains,

quickly cure the patient.
