Book Description
Excerpt from The North-Western Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 5: January, 1856; Volume XIII, Whole Series During the last half century various attempts have been made' to accomplish this result, but until quite recently with very little success. If they have in some intances succeeded in preserving the milk a long time fit for use, it has been either by depriving it of some of its valuable ingredients, or by adding other sub stances to such an extent as to materially alter its qualities. Thus the plan of M. Appert, consisted in boiling the milk in an open vessel until it was reduced one half in bulk, frequently skimming it, and finally adding the yolk of one egg to each quart of the concentrated milk. It is then to be kept in bottles. An article of preserved milk, sometimes found in the market in the form of paste, is thought by a committee of the New York Academy of Medicine to have been prepared by a process some what similar to the method of M. Appert; it containing a con siderable quantity of albumen. It is easy to perceive that the boiling and skimming process of M. Appert, and the subsequent addition of albumen, or the yolk of eggs, materially alters the quality of the milk and renders it objectionable.

Book Description
Excerpt from The North-Western Medical and Surgical Journal, 1855, Vol. 4 But in all the more important and lasting cases of symptomatic fever, the structures involved in inflammation are such that die turbance of one or more functions of importance neeesshrily salts co-incidently with the beginning of the local disease. And such is the intimate relation and dependence of one important function on all the others, that no sudden disturbance of one can take place without inducing more or less change in all. Thus disease, occupying any considerable part of the cutaneous surface, suspends the elimination from the skin, causing, on the one hand, rapid accumulation of perspirable matter in the blood; thereby exerting a universal irritant influence; and on the other, eqnally' rapid accumulation of heat from the diminished insensible evapo ration, by which, in health, the caloric on the surface of the body is constantly being rendered latent, and conveyed away. F rom these two alterations - the retention of irritating matter in the circulating fluids, and the accumulation of caloric, general febrile symptoms are very quickly developed. Again, inflammation of any portion of the respiratory apparatus suficient to materially impede respiration quickly alters the interchange of oxygen and carbonic acid through the lungs, thereby altering the quality of the blood, and, through it, the functions and properties of the system. If we bear in mind the fact, that every change in the capillary circulation is accompanied by a change of function, we shall see that the first step in the inflammatory process, namely, determina tion of blood to, and its accumulation in the inflamed part, almost necessarily involves more or less alteration in the capillary cir culation generally, and consequent] y must induce at once some general disturbance.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Boston Medical and Surgical Journal, Vol. 50: February to August, 1854 I never knew or heard of a case, where one of these bone-setters was called and found no bone out. Generally they were opposed to operat ing when any educated physician was present, and some of their most remarkable exploits have been performed, it is said, after all other physi cians had been excluded. It is well known that in many case of sprains, after the active in flammation has subsided, friction and passive motion are some of the best means that can be made use of; and this explains the modus operandi of most of their cures. A man has kept his foot upon a pillow a fort night, and thinks he cannot move it. The bone-setter extends and flexes, twists and rotates it, until the patient can endure it no longer' and thinking surely that everything must be put right after so much agony, he attempts to use the limb. His morbid sensibility has been overcome by the operation; he puts his foot to the floor, and, to his own astonishment, he finds he can walk. He believes himself cured, and therefore, in due time, he gets well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Southern Medical and Surgical Journal, 1854, Vol. 10 Modesty is universally admired as the brightest gem in the beauteous diadem of female loveliness. And while we deplore the sad consequences of the morbid sensitiveness of females, in concealing those sexual secrets, which pertain to their nature, at the expense of health, and even life itself, we can but admire while we condemn and deplore; and we would fain devise some means which would secure the virtuous of the sex in the pos session of those sacred treasures, without the payment of such a dreadful penalty. This can be accomplished only by qualify ing females to administer to the necessities of their own sex, by bestowing upon them a proper medical education: this plan, and this only, will secure females from exposure, on the one hand, and the: malpractice of ignorant midwives on the other.
