Concentrations.

MANY persons use the word fomenta-
ton to apply equally TO hot and cold
applications. Hence they speak of
hot and cold lamentations. The
term should only be used when al
luding to warm applications. When
cold washes are intended, the
word cold should always be used,
whether applied to simple water or that
which has been indicated.
lamentations, that is, hot applica-
tons, have the contrary effect to cold
ones. Warmth relaxes; cold braces.
The one opens the pores, relaxes the It's
sues and enlarges and sottens the parts
upon which they are used; cold water
contracts, constricts and hardens the
parts. fermentation excites the part to
which it is applied. 1t incites and in
creases the circulation and this relieves
the parts suffering from inflammation,
promotes the formation of matter, and
relief is insured by its discharge.
When fermentation is used, the parts
should be dried as soon as possible, by
proper friction, and by the application of
thick and warm wooden cloths. If the
application has been made to the legs,
they should be bandaged; if to the body,
it may be warmly covered with
thick blankets .In using fomenta-
tons, care should be taken that the water
be neither too hot nor too cold. Ii too
hot it will produce injury, and II too
cold it will fail in the object sought. A
temperature of 40 deg. TO 120 deg.
Fahrenheit will be the proper tempera-
ture, beginning with the lower and grad
ually increasing. For this it would be
well to have a thermometer, since that
will make no mistake.
lamentations to be of use should be
persistently applied, especially when the
disability lies in the limbs or feet. Half
an hour or even an hour is not enough.
1t must be persisted in until relief is OBJ
! tanned, even to five or six or eight hours.
In the case of the limbs, the leg tubs
may be used and the hot water renewed
from the bottom by means OF funnel
and India-rubber tube.
In cases of strains with much swelling
and tenderness, lamentations, followed
by applications OF cold water, are often
indicated. In these cases the warm
water should be faithfully applied for
| from one to three days, as the case may
be, followed by cold applications during
the day until the lameness ceases This
application of cold water may be made
by binding the disabled limb and keep.

A PHYSICIAN Who HEALED HIMSELF
If railroad director were dashed to
every locomotive there would be fewer
railroad accidents, and if doctors had to
take their own physic before administer
ing it TO their patients fewer people
would be poisoned. DR.. Joseph Walker,
of California, took this course when he
first compounded the famous Vinegar
Bitters which now rank as an inestima-
BILE household remedy in all parts of the
United States. He healed himself with
this specific before he offered ii to the
world. He introduced it with simple
statement of the manner in which he had
discovered its vegetable ingredients and
been cured, while wandering, sick and
poor, among the California tribes. He
stated what the preparation had done for
himself, and few sufferers from dys-
pepsia, biliousness, rheumatism, lung dis
eases, and many other prevalent disor-
ders believed him, tried the new restora-
tive, and were more than satisfied with
the results. In this way the sale of the
Vinegar Bitters began, and we mention
the fact as an evidence that, in this age
of intelligence and inquiry, nothing that
is really valuable to mankind can prove
pecunlary failure-even though IL may
lack the help of capital, and have TO fight
its way against powerful opposing inter
ests. Within two or three months after
its introduction the article became self
supporting, and it now yields a magniti-
cent annual revenue.
