The Secrets of Health :
Or, How Not to Be Sick, and
How to Get Well.
BY DR.. s. II. PLATT.
SIP Pages; ProfuSely Illustrated.

This work is q wonder as n cOmpen-
dunn of existing knowledge concerning the
physical phases of human life. 1t IS
condensation of all that is known up to
the present day concerning the various
organs of the human body and their func-
and sickness. It is divided into chapters
or parts for convenience, each SECTION
treating of a general topic.
The body is taken up and examined
part by part as a living machine; all
the operations of its mechanism are set
forth in simple, everyday language that
may be understood by anyone. The sub
ject Of diet, what, how much, and when
to eat is discussed eXhaustivcly; the use
and misuse of various kinds Of foods; the
nutritious value Of various meat, cereal
and vegetable foods; the effect Of stlmu-
| lants, tobacco drinks and narcotics.
There is 4 separate chapter upon food
preparation, with full instructions for
preparing different dishes, not only those
in common use, but such as are required
by sick people and infants. There is a
part upon special treatments, covering the
entire field from faith cure to allopathy,
including Christian science, homeopathy,
magnetism, water-cure, ETC., etc.
There is an exhaustive chapter upon the
care of the sick, with hints Gu nursing,
the preparation and care of the Sick-rOOm,
and treatment Of patients afflicted with all
sorts of maladies, and directions concern
ing the application of remedies to particu-
lar methods and special diets are ex-
| planned, and finally the most approved
| manner for treating the principal and
most common ailments, together with the
symptoms by which they may be recOg-
niZed.
The work is one of priceless value, and
until this edition was issued never before
sold for less than Sl.50.
