73 THE SICK man's C05IP anion. 



4 



days, I took her safely tlirough three regular

I 



before stated lively and able to help hei-elf, and 

 commenced my journey homewards wiih the 

 pleasing sensation that I had done nothing more 

 than my duty. About three yenrs afterwards I 

 was passing through the neighborhood, and was 

 received by the family like a long lost relation. 

 During the interval, she had been delivered of 

 another child! but it was done by a 

 steam Doctor, and she declared on the honor of 

 a lady that ''she never wouhl have any other kind 

 of children ! !" She observed also thaf'she had 



expeirenced so much satisfar-tion in the manner 

 she was treated in the second labor, that it was 



rathera pleasure than a pain, when comp-nd with 

 herformer treatment and she would always avoid 

 aud protest against the adraittence of Dr.'Pincers 

 and his inslrments.'' 



This, my fair female readers, is a fair statement 

 in plain terms of but one case out of the many 

 which coull be adduced to convince vou of the 

 great impropriety of using &)rce instead of assign 

 ting nature, of using ^^^"^^ and agreeable medi- 

 cines, instead of r.old water, ergot, and steel in- 

 struments; and in factofemp'oyinga person who 

 is willing to avwrn nature in her operat-ons, in- 

 stead of }om??^ ^er, into measures contrary tt^ 

 her own laws aud unerring operation.
