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 powdo.. Health is the propelliug force
N the army, ana 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 Ms well as that
known to be the most speedy and eifectual in re-
storing the sick to health, without regard to pro-
tesslonal prejudice, be adopted.
| This ID 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, tc be successful must be kept in
healthy condition; and the most sure means of se-
curing this desideratum IL 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 n positive prevention against sickness in the
| form of
| Chills and Fever, Fever and Ague
| Bilious Fever Typhoid Fever,
| DlarhGa, Dysentery,
| Small Pox Measles,
| and other malarious and infectious diseases.
Bear in mind, we say, that Raduay's Reddy 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 ma ory
| of the sick, seized with fever and ague, typhoid
bilious and other fevers, either die, niger along
| until they are reduced to mere wrecks and walk
| ing skeletons. Experience has established the
| fact that the treatment of Calomel, qulrne and
| a md
and other fevers of this class, is more injurious in
campo 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 mercurial and quinine treatment will, in the
majority of cases, be exhibited in the form of rheu
matlsm ,neuralga pans and stiffness in the joints,
engagements of the liver, jaundiee, yellow jaun-
| ders, dyspepsia, pleurlsy, coughs, colds, &c,
which will cling to the unfortunate patient for
years.
IN DR.. RAILWAYS REMEDIES
the soldier has positive preventive against at
lacks ofthese diseases.
Let every soldier carry a bO.te of
RAILWAYS READY RELIEF
I'M HIS ENAPsAcK,
and when exposed to wet damp and chilly weather,
or encamped in malarlous districts, take a tea
spoonful in half a cup OF water, as drink, early
IN the morning before eating, and three or four
times during the dry; and, II on picket or guard
duty, occasionally duling the night he will escape
all sickness, and continue to enjoy good health.
