The physician who prescrbes for cold, cough, or
night sweas. and then advises the patient to walk
ride out every day, will be sure to have corpse
on his hands before long.
My plan is, to give my three medicines in accord
cases where a freer use of the Mandrake Pills is
necessary. My object is, to give tone to the stom

wish thorough examination with the Respirometc!

declares the exact condition Of the lungs; and
patients can readily learn whether they are cur

that the value of my medicines depends entirely
upon their being taken strictly according TO direc
