Health Department, By Jno. Stainback~Wilson, M. D„ Atlanta, Ga. 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.

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 suit is a vivid shock to the whole nervous sys- j Buckeye, or Horse Chestnut, and, combined — • - " ■ • ' ’"—with other ingredients, is offered to the public as a cure for nothing else but Piles. Price 50 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, Aug3-3m. TO CORRESPONDENTS.. All communications relating to this department of the paper should be addressed to A. F. Wurm, Atlanta,Ga.
