This should be done in no half-learted way, but they should be ex-luded entirely from the dietary of lose whose condition is such as to ad-n-- it. Avoid tea and coffee; tea is iv^rrse than coffee. Take starch foods and sweets spar-ngly. Give milk and butter, the suc-ulent vegetables and fruit, remember-ng that acid fruits, strawberries, acid Dranges and lemons sometimes give roubie. Give water in abundance, be-ore meals. Keep the skin clean, and ae skin and kidneys active; promote igesiion; prevent fermentation in the tomach and bowels; keep the bowels ictive; and to accomplish this I give ascara evacuant x to xv gts. in water )efore meals and gr. x demators after neals when there is fermentative dys-)epsia. Supplement the action of the a.scara by the use of Mag.

To allevi-ite the pains, and at the same time afcten the elimination of uric acid, Sali-ylatc of soda is one of the most reliable remedies. To those who bear it ^■ell, as much as 80 grains or 100 grains day should be given, in divided doses, •nd it will be found that an opiate is 'arely necessary.

So=Called Dyspepsia. By Charles Adrien Julian, M. D., Thom-asville, N. C. In preparing this article, I feel that I am performing a task of failures and an apology is required of me for attempting a subject, the elucidation of which would require a collection of stolen things that would baffle the ingenuity of the most comm'^ndable plagiarist. The title is more to "tickle the itch of the ears than to satisfy the appetite of the soul." I will confine myself to an effort to satirize the subject, depict the.condition of gluttony, encourage continency, abstinacy and temperance, and review what I consider the most rational treatment. It is always essential before the delineation of any subject to have an exact idea of what it indicates, but this is confounded with so many terms that the interpretation would disturb the equilibrium of a man whose stomach was neither acid nor alkaline. There has been as much confusion and empiricism in the treatment as in the name. If I could clear away whatever mistiness may have accumulated with time about them and present to your mental vision fresh truths clothed in naturalness, if I could in any degree succeed, I would feel that I was answering a purpose that has long lain unperformed. It is a matter of general experience that disorder of the digestive organs is frequently occasioned by defects in the quality of the food. Hard and coarse foods overtask the digestive powers, irritate the mucus surface of the stomach and bowels and leads to torpor. The
