1t is possible to prevent prevent
many diseases and cure others by
drinking large quantities of water.
An eminent French physician says
that typhoid fever can be water,
He gives his patients eight or ten
ounces an hour of sterilised water.
Experiments have beap made with
diseases caused by bacteria, which
demonstrate the curative power of
water. In cases of cholera, where
the system secretes a large amount
offuid, enormous quantities of hot
water are of great benefit, and will
cure many cases without other
medicines. One doctor says that
perfectly sweet, fresh cider, taken
in large quantities has been known
to cure cases Of bowel complaint.
The acid kills the bacteria, which
arc speedily thrown out of the
system. Hot water, i'll fevers, is
Of great use, and an ordinary
tumbler full of water, as hot as can
be taken, once an hour, is one of
the very best remedies. The
important thing is to put into the
system and out of it sufficient
quantity of water to prevent the
accumulation of ptomaines and
