says: 1t seems almost impossible to

HOT WATER IN DISEASE,
1t is One OF the Nest Valuable of
Household Remedies.

Hot water, says the New York
Ledger, is one of the most valuable of
household remedies. Whether in the
bath, the water bottle, the rubber
bag or in the form OF beverage, it
has healing powers that have never
been imagined, much less appreciated
by the majority of persons. Ii ct baths
will cure many of the ills that flesh is
heir to; hot foot baths and a hot
water bag at the back of the neck
will relieve almost any ordinary head
ashe. Hot water taken as morning
drink will almost certainly cure dy-
spepsia and sluggishness Of the liver.
One hygienia enthusiast declares that
the reason so little is said by physi-
clans about the use of hot water is
that they would be deprived of so
many patients, fer it viii cure more
cases than all the pills they can pre-
scribe. There seems to be but little
literature on this sub ect. and one can
scarcely understand why, save for the
reason given above. As for regular
Water cure treatment, there are many
publications on that subject, but OPP
inicns differ SO widely as to their
special methods that it is scarcely
allowable to commend any particular
one above another, Any bookseller
or newsdealer will furnish you with
list of the leading books on water
cure, and you can write and get the
contents of any one that pleases. But
most of them advocate cold water in
stead of hot, and that is by no means
swhat is wanted.
