FOR HUMAN ILLS IN l747
The Rev. John Wesley's Collection ti
 Medical Recipes

In these days of hygienic reform and methods" of treating diseases without medicine at all it Is Interesting to read of the heroic treatment of l50 years ago. A volume, printed by Perry Hall. and compiled by John Wesley. is a curious mixture of material remedies and rer- gious exhortation. There are few copies of the book in existence, but one un- earthed recently was the cause of much amuse ment at a convention of physi- clans. The book is substantially bound in leather and the few illustrations are as primitive as the remedies.
 The preface deals with the raison fetre of the work, incidentally recalling how;
 Man was sent from the hands of God perfect. needing no physic: but. rebell- ing against the sovereign of all the seeds of pain and sic..ness were lodged in the body. and thousand disorders. increased by everything about us. The sun and moon shed unwholesome influ- ences from above; the earth exhales poisonous damps from below; the air it. self that surrounds us is replete with the shafts of death; yea. the food we eat daily saps the foundations of life. |"
 The preface further states:
 As to the manner of using the reme- dies here set down. I should advise. as soon as you know your disorder (which is easy unless in the case of a compl cation of disorders, and then You would do well to apply to a physician who fears GodD: First. use the medicines first advised for that disease; the sec- ond if that is of no effect; the third and so on. To persevere in the course is of- ten more than half the cure. Above all, add to the rest (for it Is not labor lost) hat old fashioned medicine. prayer and iaith in God"

Or, be electrified daily" For the sting of bee or a nettle, there Is the homeopathic remedy of honey for one, and the juice of the net tie for the other. Here Is poultice that should stick:
 For stitch in the side, apply trea- cle on toast hot"
 An extraordinary disease called twisting of the guts" has an extraor- dinary remedy
 Many at the point of death have been cured by taking--ounce by ounce-- one. two or three pounds of quicksil- yer
 After again recommending his collection of recipes, Mir. Wesley forcibly adds:
 But still adlvse is complicated cas- es, let everyone apply without delay to a physician that fears God. For from one who does not, be his fame eyer so great. I should expect curse rather than a blessing"
