DYspEpsIA.-"It will surely kill
you if you eat that hard boiled egg.
Dr.. q says So Weheard a wo-
man say this 10 her daughter at a no
tel table the other day. We made no
audible comment, but could not help
thinking quietly how many times we
run the risk of life in the same way.
And when, at the supper-table, we
saw this parent eating sponge cake,
which was unexceptionable, we tried
to tremble for her rashness, and won
dered if baking the egg made II more
digestible than boiling. And then
we wondered if DR.. - ever said SO.
And then we remem bered how many
times we had heard that DR., This and
DR.. That had said one thing and an
other thing, which we knew they had
never said. And we remembered the
story Of The three crows that some
body vomited. And, on the whole,
we thought that it is not best 10 trust
much to what somebody says "Dr.
said"
But, in the first place, about hard
boiled eggs. We have seen dyspep-
tics who suffered untold torments
with almost every kind Of. food. and
tormen,s of which they did tell
after some medicines given for relief,
No liquid could be taken without
suffering. Bread became . Burning
acid. Meat aud milk were solid and
liquid fires. We have seen these
same sufferers trying TO avoid food
and drink, and even going 70 the en-
ema syringe for suStenance. Andwe
have seen their torments pass away,
and their hanger relieved by living
upon the white Of eggs which had
been boiled in bubiing waterfor thir-
ty minutes. At tbe end OF alweek
we have given the hard yelk Of the
| egg with thawhite; and upon this diet
alone, without fluid of any kind, we
have seen them begin to gain flesh
aud strength, and refreshing sleep
After weeks of this treatment, they
have been able, with care, ito begir
upon other food, s5ss
'"And what medicineGp says DIR
Doser. Why, no medicine. We ad
vised them to throw pbysic to th,
dogs; to avoid il as poison; that med
! icine had been partly 10 blame 70
the dyspepsia.
Thus much for hard.boiled eggs
Not halfs bad as half.boiled ones
and ten times as easy to digest a
raw eggs, even in egg.nog.
