Poisonous Medicines.

The theory that the virus Of disease can
be safely copnteracted,by doses of poison,
is false and dangerous. Within the last
twenty-five years, not less than q score Of
virulent poisons, have been added to there
pository Of the medical profession. They
are given in small doses, otherwise they
would destroy life immediately but even
in minute quantities, they produce. ultimate
iy, very disastrous effects. It IL unwise
and unphilossphical to employ, AZ remedies
powerful and insidious drugs, which in SUBJ
iugating one Diseases the seeds Of an
other still more unmanageable. None OF
these terrible medicaments operate with as
much direetness and certainty upon the eau

letertous ingredient in ats composttion.-
Arsenic and quinia are given for intermit-

and yet these deadly drugs do not compare,
as specifics for the diseases above ennmera.

ing, but erroneous, article from
Col. Killebrow, of the Onion
