The number OF deaths Of young chill
jdren which weekly occur, indicate
great lack Of knowledge Of the laws o
health on the part of parents, or o
tskill on the part of physicians. There
should be greater attention given to th'
matter. Parents should he instructed
SO that such great waste of life may bt
avoidea. A Knowledge that will con
tribute to preserve the health and in
sure the growth Of the human body is
far more important than the stndy o.
the Languages or many other branches
taught in our seminaries Of learning.
Every young lady cannot expect to be-
come an authoress, but the great major
ity do expect to become wives and
mothers. Hence they should be edu-
Gated to I'll those positions intslligently
and honorably. To do this course is
not necessary at a medical college, but
a Knowledge of the proper observance Of
natures laws should be impaired. A
knowledge Of the proper preparation OF
food and the necessity of proper exer-
else should be possessed by every body.
Indigestion has slain its thousands,
and want of proper exercise and CLOTH
ing as destroyers Of health follow close
a. its heels with their victims. &xer.
else in the open air is necessary to in
sure strength. The child that is kept
penned up in warm room must neces-
sarily become weak and delicate, while |
the one that ia properly dressed and
allowed to run in and ont OF doors as il |
may desire, becomes healthy snd robust.
The difference between the health OF |
the rich and the poor is thus accounted |
'or. The little street Arab can endure
any reasonable amount of exposure,
while the babes of the rich are too fire.
!usntly under the treatment Of a ply
'ician. Exercise and the making of
mud pies would do them much more
good. Let mothers take the hint and |
look well to the health of their little
,nes, and then our bills of mortality
will DO greatly shortened.
