would it in any way act to remove the cause 
of wakefulness? 
It is better to avoid trouble, if possible, and 
Dyspepsia may bo avoided. How ? By taking 
proper care when, what, and how much we eat 
or drink; when, where, and how we exercise, 
keeping proper company, and avoiding over-ex¬ 
ertion, late hours, rum and tobacco. 
It would bo impossible to give general direc¬ 
tions that would suit every case. “ What is one 
man's meat is smother man’s poisona diet 
that would agree with one would kill another. 
Every person must study bis own constitution 
and in the light of common hcubo, proceed ac¬ 
cordingly. But when tho trouble has become 
seated, what then ? When aches and pains and 
sleopless nights and horrible days result from 
inattention or ignorance, what is to bo done ? 
Strike at the root of the matter; let tho disease 
alone and lake care of tho patient. Remember 
what is bis healthy normal condition and try to 
restore it. The stomach has been made weak 
and inefficient by abuse; the muscles havo be¬ 
come inactive by lack of extnrlso. 
There is no general prescription that will an¬ 
swer in all eases. We can point yon to one case 
where tho patient was kept for months on a 
short allowance of Graham bi.-cnit and watt r and 
recovered; another, where a man danced him¬ 
self from a dyspeptic skeleton into robust health; 
others, where the only treatment was the move¬ 
ment cure—kneading the bowels and exorcise <*l 
tho muscles by rubbing, pounding, Ac. As iu 
matters of diet, so iu processes lor cure; Cacti 
case will require its particular treatment. 
It is evident, then, that the. columns of tho 
Rural do not afford room in which to examine 
this matter til length. We havo pleasure, t here¬ 
fore, in calling attention to a book written by 
Dr. R. T. Tuall, entitled “Digestion and |>yn 
pepsia,” in which this question is very concisely 
treated. It is proper to state that iu this hook, 
as in all bis other writings. Or. Tuali, takes the 
ground that all drug medication is most unwise 
and wrong; but however much we may differ 
with him m this particular, we must confess, so 
far as Dyspepsia is concerned, ho makes a good 
argument, and no one can read tho book without 
finding much to approve, and by which they can 
profit if they will. *
