A PREVAILING VICE.
Some OF tho Dangers Of Nolf- DOetOring in
EpidomloS.

Some OF tho Dangers Of NolE- DOetorIng I'm
EpidomioS.
Self-doctorfhg Is always dangerous,
except for the simplest ailments. Few
persons understand the significance OF
their symptoms; tho difficulty Of doing
So is greatly increased by tho complex
nature Of most diseases, and tho modill-
cation OF trcntmont demanded by i1--
dividual temperament and hereditary
tendencies. Even il tho patient knows
what ais him, no is not likely to. know
the remedy, the size and frequency Of
tho dose, and the proper regulation Of
tho diet in connection with 1t.
How profound is tho general ignor-
anco upon this subject is shown by tho
enormous consumption of quack mcdi-
cines. Multitudes Of people try ono
nostrum after another in utter blind
ness. If all such compounds were thrown
into tho sea, it would save every year
millions of dollars and thousands of
lives.
During the prevalence Of q widespread
epidemic, self-doctoring becomes pecul-
iarly perilouS. Fear is in tho air, and is
moro contagious than smallpox itself.
Under. its influence men fly to. drugs,
other to ward of tho dreaded attack, or
to cure disease which very likely ex-.
lists only in tho patients excited imag.
ination. Tho impaired condition Of the
system under this ill-advised dosing in.
vitcs tho very attack which. tho dosing
was intended to avert.
The newspapers announce that par
ticular drug is being employed by dis
tinguishcd physicians; it is extensively
advertised, and a crcdulous public
makes haste to procure it. In many
such cases tho drug in. question is
merely boing experimental with
cautiously by the physicians, and likely
enough, when they como to compare
notes with each other afterward,. it is
discarded altogether. It may neet ono
symptom of tho, disease, but on the
whole prove to be, attended with great
danger.
Again, in most cpidemics, there are
various types OF tho prevailing disease.
This was eminently true of tho late in
flucnza. In many cases tho special scat
of it was tho lungs, and mir passage;. in
others, tho brain; in n third class, the.
digestive tract. OF course the remedy
needed to DO adapted to, tho particular
type. Further, it needed to be adapted
to tho stage of the disease. A prcscrip-
ton appropriate, to tho fever. stage.
might be very harmful in, the later stage.
Of marked depression.
But tho people took no. coenizance of
these fundamental facts. Ono of the.
drugs mos. in uso was uuinine-an
effective remedy IN its place, but peril.
of &c skc
first effect is to stimulate. its later effect
is greatly to depreSa Nothing could
be more hazardous; shan to administer
it in the later stage OF 30 depressing a
disease as influenza. A writer in the.
Medical Advance believes that nearly
all the more dangerous symptoms in this
epidemic wero due TO tho indiscrlminate
use OF Quinlne. e:

ron THE MASSES.

II must be evident to any person
who thinks, that a civilization which
does not uplift the great masses Of
the people is worthless and will pass
away. Riches and culture for the
few cannot endure or permanently
exist. Such aristocratlc grass will
wither and pass away. The same Is
true Of religion. II II sanctihes and
makes pious and holy only the elect,
II u worth less to humanity. flour
schools aud colleges educate only the
favored and preferred classes they
only create an educated class at the
expense OF the mass. The newer
ideas upon these subjects are taking
the broadest sweep and recognizing
the grand principle Of ministry
unto humanity. Even the Son Of
Man came not upon earth to
be minIstered unto, but 10 minister
unto Others. This principle sancti-
fles all human endeavor and makes
holy every act, word and thought
that extends along this line.

tivation the following summer.
There is usually more leisure in the
fall, the teams are i'm better condi-

than IN spring when the warm
