MIX a, 4 REMEDIAL Consider
able has been lately said in medical journals
concerning the value of milk a- q remedial
agent in certain diseases. IN interesting
article upon this subject lately appeared in
the London NHs journal in which it j. stat
ed ON the authority of DIR. Benjamin Clark,
that the East India warm milk Is used u
great extent as specific for diarrhea. \
pint every four hours Will check violent di-
arrhea, stomachoache. incipicnt cholera and
dysentery. The milk should never he boiled,
but only heated sufficiently to be agrcably
warm, not too hot % drink. Mix which
has been boiled Is unfit for use. This writer
gives several instances to show the value of
this simple substance in arreSting the dis
ease, among which is the following The
writer says, 1T has never failed in curing
me in six or twelve hours. and have tried
it, should think, fifty times l have also
|. given it to a dying man who had been sub
iect to dysontery eight months. latterly ac-
companied by one continual diarrhea, and it
acted on him like a charm. In two days his
diarrhea was gone, in three weeks he became
hale, fat man, and now nothing that may
hereafter occur will ever shake his faith in
hot milk.
\ writer also communicates to the Medi-
cal Times and Ge-aic. statement of the
value of milk in twentv-six cases of typhoid
fever. in every one of which its great value
was apparent. 1t checks diarrhea, and
nourishcs and coolS the body. People suffer
/ inc from disease require food quite as much
as those in health, and much more so in GER
tain diseases where there is rapid waste of
the system. Frequently all ordinary food in
certain diseases Is rejected by the stomach.
and even loathed by the patient but nature,
ever benefcent, has furnished a food that in
| all diseases is bencfcial-in some directly Gu
ratiye Such food is milk The writer in
the journal last quoted, Dr. Alexander Yale,
| after giving particular observations upon the
| points above mentioned, viz. lis action in di-
arrhea, its nourishing properties and its ae-
| ton in cooling the body, says 1--WE believe
that milk nourishes in fever, promotes sleep,
wards off delirium, soothes the intestines.
and, in fine. Is the sine qua non in typhoid
fever" We have also lately tested the
value Of milk in scarlet fever, and learn that
| it is now recommended by the medical facul-
| tv in all cases of this often very distressing
children disease. Give all the milk the
patient will take, even during the period of
greatest fever; it keeps up the strength of
| the patient, acts well upon the stomach, and
is every way a blessed thing in this sickness
