The Health, Wealth, and Happiness Series or of popular Hand books For Town and Country.

Illness: Its Cause and Cure,

Showing how to preserve health and cure diseases by a safe, scientific, pleasant, and efficient means within the reach of all.

How to Preserve Health is a matter of no small importance, nor is it an Utopian undertaking. Nearly all diseases are preventible, and the fraction of time and money spent in acquiring the necessary knowledge is insignificant compared with the loss and suffering incurred by ill health, doctors, and drugs.

How to Cure Disease Normally is indicated by the means required to preserve health. Such modes of cure are:—

Safe,—being in accordance with the laws of health, they cannot possible destroy the patient or undermine the constitution, as the common practice of administering poison does.

Scientific. The remedies propounded in this book are based upon the nature of disease, and the demands of the system in respect to regaining the normal condition. Hence dangerous courses of experiments are superseded by a certain means producing the desired result. This practical knowledge will prove the death-blow to all kinds of medical quackery and malpractice.

Pleasant are such moans and grateful to the diseased condition as food is to the hungry, drink to the thirsty, or rest to the weary. No disgusting draughts, painful operations, or enfeebling processes, but the whole is regenerating and restorative.

Efficient in all cases where cure is possible, is this system. Under it acute diseases, small pox, fevers, diptheria, bronchitis, rheumatism, &c., and all common ailments lose their virulent character; and by observing the rules of health laid down, they might be banished from the land, and with them the dreaded cholera.

These Means are Within the Reach of all. The poorest in the land may understand the system and avail themselves of its blessings. Sanitary associations should be be formed in each town, and missionaries employed to teach it to those who cannot read and investigate these simple phenomena for themselves.

Send 12 stamps for a sample copy it once, while you are well, and do all you can to spread it amongst your friends. They are sold at a reduced price in quantities for distribution.

Simple Questions and Sanitary Facts

Stiff wrappers, 2s; cloth 2s Gd. This work, in the form of questions and answers, in a very pleasing manner conveys a vast amount of information on various branches of physical science, health, dietetics, morals, and remedial agencies.
