Popular passages

Page 350 - And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered but rather grew worse, 27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

Page 350 - And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians. And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.

Page 248 - ... too romantic, a modesty too retiring. I will not go so far as to say, with a living poet, that " the world knows nothing of its greatest men...

Page 792 - A child should be washed and dressed every morning, before being nursed or fed. In bathing a child, temper the water to the weather, carefully cleanse the body, and especially the genital organs which require great cleanliness and care; and the head should be carefully freed from all scabs and crusts which may form. Where the belly-band is used, it should be kept on for at least one month.

Page 17 - This is all very well, so far as it goes, but it is a very contracted view to take of the matter.

Page 294 - ... those confined in dark rooms. This led to a complete reform in lighting the hospitals of Russia, and with the most beneficial results. In all cities visited by the cholera, it was universally found that the greatest number of deaths took place in narrow streets, and on the sides of those having a northern exposure, where the salutary beams of the sun were excluded.

Epidemics attack inhabitants on the shady side of the street, and totally exempt those on the other ; and even in epidemics such as ague, the morbid influence is often thus partial in its labors.

Page 111 - The filters consist of large cylindrical vessels divided by horizontal perforated diaphragms into five superposed compartments, of which the middle three are filled with fine clean sand sifted into three sizes, the coarsest being placed in the lowest, and the finest in the topmost of the three compartments. The milk enters the lowest compartment through a pipe under gravitation pressure, and after having traversed the layers of sand from below upward, is carried by an overflow to a cooler fed with...

Page 258 - This man has been in the habit of studying half the night, of passing his days in his office and in the courts, of eating luxurious dinners, and drinking various wines. He has every day violated the laws on which health depends. Did Providence cut him off? The evil rarely ends here. The diseases of the father are often transmitted ; and a feeble mother rarely leaves behind her vigorous children. " It has been customary, in some of our cities, for young ladies to walk iu thin shoes and delicate stockings...

Page 248 - That some of the indigent among us die of scanty food, is undoubtedly true ; but vastly more in this community die from eating too much, than from eating too little; vastly more from excess, than starvation.
