USE OF OLIVE OIL IN SICKNESS

DIR. ii. NJ. Logan, of San Francisco,
contributes a paper to the California
Medical Journal on the beauties and
medicinal uses of pure olive Oil, of
which the following is an abstract:
'Oliye oil is indicated in infantile
disease, marked by a want of vitality,
malnutition or when constipation
and irritability Of the alimentary can
al exists. Growing children at any
age, when subject to colds, cough, ca
tarrh, etc, should take one or two tea
spoonfuls after meals. A half-tea-
spoonful two or three times a day for
very young infant is a proper dose.
l have recently had a very pleasant
experience with a severe case of hem
orrhage from the lungs. A mother
of three children, aged about 80, had
been suffering about three years with
phthisis,, with frequent and severe
hemorrhageS. She said she would
lose a pint of blood at time. She
had taken ergOt and other astringents
until they had no effect. She was so
reduced that she could not take
strong drink, so l put her on olive
oil, tablespoonful at first at every
hour or two, and increased the dose
to a half teacupful three times a day.
The hemorrhages ceased rapidly. In
nineteen weeks she had taken nine
teen bottles of olive oil and gained
nineteen pounds. She is still taking
the Oil and still gains in flesh and
weight. From an exhaustive consump-
tive, drained dry with severe hemor-
rhages, she has become in less than
a year magnificent type of woman.
ly loneliness, weighing no pounds.
ascribe all this to the persistent use
of olive Oil. In active hemorrhage
from lungs or stomach it soothes the
patient quicker than any astringent
l have ever used. 1t is admitted that
| oils and fats are essential to the con
struction of tissue and production OF
heat. Modern researches have prov

| in the production of force. 1t has
been proved by experiment that on q
diet Of hydrocarbons great muscular

Turkish porters, who are remarkable
for their strength and endurance, live
on a diet of fat and rice. The aero
bats Of Japan, who live on a similar
diet, develop enormous muscular pow
err and accomplish feats of strength
and agility far beyond most othel
races.
