104 REPORT OF THE SECTION^ pain be excessive, morphia hypodermatically, or tr, opii diol., or liq. dov. in appropriate doses by the mouth may be given. I have attempted only to refer in brief to some of the more interesting phases of this subject, hoping by so doing to evoke the discussion. If I have succeeded my object is accomplished. SO-CALLLED DYSPEPSIA. By CHARLES ADRIEN JULIAN, M. D., Thomasville, 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 commendable 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, abstinency 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 chemical composition of a food is not always a safe criterian for estimating its value. Its digestibility must always be taken into consideration, as the physical characters may render it liable to disorder digestion. In tracing out the causation of disease we find in not a few instances that excess is the disturbing element instead of quality. The man who eats greedily, of course the pleasure of indulgence is the sole object, and there are people who have a
