Bathing—How Water Acts—How
Applied in Disease -Different Baths,
Hot, Cold, Turkish, etc.
Bathing—maimer in which water
Acts,—As a knowledge of the physiological ac
tion of water is essential to its jadicions use,and
as there are many erroneous notions on this sub
ject, I propose in this article to explain the effects
of the different kinds of baths.
The application of cold water to the surface of
the body is followed by two distinct and oppo
site effects. The first,or direct effect.is that of a
sedative—that is it abstracts heat from the body
and causes some depression of the vital powers.
This temporary depression is followed by reac
tion, which is the second or indirect, but the
most valuable part of a cold bath. In this reac
tion we have the vivifying tonic effect of this
bath, soon to be described. Let us first consid
er the direct sedative action. When cold water
I will, on application, send directions by which
anyone can make a bath equally as good as those
advertised, at the cost of about a dollar, fo r two
little lamps and for a piece of wire to hold the
lamps, and a cup ot water to generate the steam.
The cost of the advertised baths is ten dollars,
besides extras for other paraphernalia.’
What is Portaline?
This question is thus briefly and truthfully
answered. Portaline, or Tabler’s Vegetable Liv
er Powder, derives its name from the fact that it
regulates those portals of the body through
which the most dangerous diseases make their
entrance into the human system. Simple rocti
and herbs, for which we are indebted to bounti
ful nature, have been scientifically combined,
and presented as a cure to all suffering with
Constipation, Biliousness, Dyspepsia, and all
diseases arising from a torpid liver. Price 50

Take that Buckeye out of Your Pocket!
Now that the medical properties of the Buck
eye are clearly established, and utilized for the
cure of Piles, why not make a direct application
of its healing virtues in the form of Tabler’s
Buckeye Pile Ointment and be enred ? This
first comes in contact with the skin, the first re- ; preparation is made from the alkaloid of the

tern. This is manifested by shivering, chilli
ness and involuntary contraction of the muscles,
sometimes amounting to ‘cramps.’ At the same j cents a Bottle,
time, there is a repulsion or driving back of the
blood to the internal organs. This is manifest- j
ed by a sensible decrease in the temperature of )
the surface, by paleness and shrinking of the j
skin, fullness of the head, ‘goose bumps’ on the i
skin, etc. When reaction comes on all this is
changed. There is a strong rush of blood to the
minute vessels of the skin, and perhaps to the
same system of capillary vessels in every part
of the body. This causes an increase of the tem
perature, the skin expands, its color returns,
the 'goose bumps’ disappear, all feeling of de
pression vanishes and gives place to an inde
scribable delightful glow, a bouyancy and elas
ticity which imparl new life and energy to the
whole system, mental and bodily.
From this explanation of the action of cold
water, it will be seen that the direct sedative
action is what is needed in acute inflammation.
In these cases, the reaction is not desired and
would be injurious. Therefore, in such cases,
the water should be continuously applied by
means of a thin wet cloth over the inflamed part
and this should be changed whenever it becomes
warm. When the object is to abstract heat
and reduce inflammation, >he cloths should
never be used in the form of thick towels three
or four double, as is often done. Of all the rem
edies for inflammation, external and internal,
cold water, when thus used, is the safest and
the best The standard medical authorities now
agree that wrapping fever patients in sheets
kept wet with cold or tepid water till the heat
is sufficiently reduced, is the most successful
treatment. Let the timid, who are afraid of cold
water, remember that tepid water will abstract
heat and reduce fever as well as cold water, pro
vided the patient is lightly covered so tnat the
heat can escape by evaporation. It has been seen
that the tonic, invigorating effect of the cold
bath is due to the reaction. It is important then
to secure this. The degree of reaction is gov
erned by several circumstances.
1. The vigor of the patient: stout, active peo
ple reacting more readily than feeble ones.
2. The colder the water, the stronger the re
action, provided it is not too cold for the bath
er. If there is any doubt on this point, the tem
perature can be gradually reduced from day to
day; and if very cold water is used, it should be
a sudden short dash,folio wed by active exercise.
3. The most certain way to secure reaction,
is to take txercise before, after and in the bath.
The best preparation for a cold bath is a brisk
run or walk, sufficient to excite perspiration be
fore taking it, provided always there is no fati
gue or exhaustion. The danger is not from the
perspiration, but from depression from over ex
ertion. The best exercise in and after the bath
is vigorous rubbing with the bather's own hands,
thus having the combined action of the exercise
and of the friction, which is the best of all means
to accomplish the desired end.
Diircreut Kinds of Baths.— Baths are
commonly divided into hot, warm,cold and tep
id, but as these terms are entirely relative,what
is hot or warm to one person being cool or cold
to another, the best guide as to the temperature
is the sensations of the bather. All baths, how
ever, may be divided into two great classes:
those above the temperature of the body which
impart heat and have a stimulating, exciting
effect, and those which are below the tempera
ture of the body which abstract heat and have a
soothing, sedative effect. The high temperature
baths are indicated in chills, congestion and de
pressed conditions of the system. The low tem
perature baths are indicated in inflammation,
fevers, nervous derangements, and in general
debility, through the reaction as already explai-
ned.
The perfection of all baths—the one, and the
only one combining all the requisites and ful
filling the indications of all other baths, is the
hot-air Turkish bath. The advantages of this
bath are manifest, and I propose to mention
them, because many do not know the difference
between this and other baths, which are mistak
en for it The Turkish bath, then, is not a
vapor, nor water, nor box, nor tub bath but a
dry, warm-air bath, given in large rooms of
graded temperatures, in which the air comes in
contact not only with the skin, but the lungs.
This air being light, the pressure on the surface
is correspondingly diminished, so that the blood
rushes to the skin, where the watery parts of
this fluid are greedily drunk up by the dry air.
It will thus be seen how superior this bath must
be in relieving internal congestion and in throw
ing off impurities from the system. In the vapor,
or steam bath, which some confound with the
hot-air Turkish bath, the lightness and dryness
are both absent, and the air being already load
ed with moisture, it is a physical impossibility
for it to take up the moisture from the bather.
Therefore, as strange as it may appear to those
who have never considered the philosophy of
bathing, it is not possible to perspire to any ex
tent in a vapor bath. The same is true of a wa
ter bath. If the head is out it will sweat freely;
but the object of bathing is not to sweat the
head, but the whole body, and when the head is
out one of the greatest advantages of the Turk
ish hot-air baths is lost—breathing the dry,
warm, highly electrified air into the deep re
cesses of the air-cells of the lungs, where ordi
nary air will not enter. *
Another advantage of the Turkish bath is the
shampooning of the whole body at a high heat,
thus obtaining the combined action of two of
the greatest known remedies—heat and friction.
In addition to all this, in this bath after the
action of the dry air, the heat and the friction,
we have the tonic, invigorating, reactive effect of
the cold water which follows tba other processes
of the bath; This reaction is stronger than after
anv other bath, and the feeblest persons never
fail to feel that delightful glow and invigoration
which a good reaction always produces. Of
course a bath having such peculiar properties
must have remedial effects superior to all other
baths; but it is not my design to dwell on these.
Let me sav for the benefit of those who do not
have access to this great bath, that the next best
bath to it is the wet-sheet pack, which I de
scribed in one of my articles sometime since.
This is far superior to the so-called Turkish baths
advertised tor home use, which are wanting m
•very essential feature of a Turkish bath. But
nhfrwM any be taken with the idea of such a bath,
