EFFECTS OF DRUGGING OV THE MOTH-
EUS. MILK-AIR AND EXERCISE OF
NURSING WOMEN EXERTIONS OF
NURSING WOMEN —EFFECTS OF THE
MIND IN NURSING WOMEN-
All admit the pernicious fil e's of the excess
ive use of drags in infant life, and especia’ly of
opiates when administered directly to the ohild.
Bat the effects of drags unwillingly adminis
tered t rough the mother’s milk are perhaps,
even more inj irious because more general, and
not so readily recogniz'd and traced to their
tr ie source. Most mothers are wholly ignorant
of the fact that many, perhaps, mes' drugs pass
un changed into the blood, and from the blood
ongh the various glands and excretory or
gans and out of the body. And, even of the
drugs themselves do not thus find an outlet in
an unchanged state every one knows that they
cause a commotion in the system—a distur
bance of its healthful functions, which, though
it may be ultimately remedial for the mother,
enfebles her vital powers deranges her secre
tions. and unfits her in proportion to the nature
and extent of the effects of the drug from giv
ing pure and healthful milk for her child* If
the drug passes through the milk
gland unchanged, its specific effects, whether
narcotic, stimulant, or purgative, will be exer
ted immediately on the child, just as if the med
icine had been poured from a spoon into its
month. If the milk i6 deranged from the gen
eral disorder in the system from the action of
the dreg, the specific effects may not be seen
but the remote effect in impairing the milk se
cretion may be even worse because obscure and
unrreogniz d. The practical deduction then, is
obvious—mothers and nurses should have as
little as possible to do with drugs; so living and
obeying the laws of health as to render drag
ging unnecessary.
Better ‘throw physic to the dogs,’ than to be
continually saturating your blood with it, and
dosing your infant through your milk, when
such a coarse is not only unnecessary, b it often
destructive to yourself a’d chiid.
Air mill Exercise of* Surging Wo-
men.—Bure air and exercise necessary for all,
are abs lately essential to fit nursing women for
their duties. Without these no function of the
body con be properly performed—the blood will
become corrupt—the general Lealth will be de
ranged—the vital processes will be suspended,
or improperly carried on and every secretion be
impaired. Without exercise to re-invigorate the
body, and drive the blood through the sluggish
vessels, these will become clogged up with gross
and irritating impurities; and without the vi
talizing, vivifying, and purifying eff >cts of pure
a‘r, the blandest and most wholesome fluids,
such as milk itself, will be converted into an
acrid disease-generating poison. In view of
these well established facts mothers should ex
ercise and be much ic the open air themselves;
and if they have a wet-nurse they should see to
it that she does not grow too fat and lazy, which
she is very likely to do if employed by a wealthy
family and has nothing to do except to attend
to her little charge. But while exercise is in
sisted on, it shonld always be reasonable, mod
erate and healthfu', avoiding over-beating, fa
tigue, depression or exhaustion. Iu short,
nursing women shonld, above all others, live
naturally, physiologically, disregarding alike
the rebellious warnings of a misguided appe
tite, the unreasonable whims of the ignorant,
the bas less traditions of grandmothers, and
many of the time-honored customs of the nurse
ry-room. If nursing women would rear healthy
and sweet-tempere 1 children, they must be
healthy and sweet-tempered themselves; and to
be thus, requires obedience to the law of health,
not only in eating and drinking and moral in
fluences, but also in sleeping, in cleanliness, in
temperature, in the regulation of the secretions
and in everything else that is pure, healthful,
and of ‘good report.’
Excretions or Nursing Women.—
The bowels should be regulated, not by purga
tives, but by Idj actions of warm or cold water,
by a laxative fruit and vegetable diet and by reg
ularity in attending to the natnral calls. The
best diet for costive bowels is nnbolted flour
bread, corn bread, ripe fruit, either fresh or
dried and shewed, hominy, syrup, potatoes, etc.
By pursuing this simple oourse, mothers will be
scared the unpleasantness of nanseocs medi
cines, which will often leave them in a worse
condition as to the constipation, and purge the
cbi.d, especially if saline purgatives are taken.
The skin of nursing women shonld be kept
clean and open by freqnent bathing in water,
warm, cold, or tepid, according to the feelings
and reactive powers of the bather. As a general
rule, the cold shower bath every morning will
be found an excellent invigorator. But, if this
is not borne well, the tepid shower, or the
s xmge bath will prove safe, pleasant and effect
ual in keeping np the action of that most im
portant excretory organ, the s’lin. When nurs
ing women or others cannot take the exercise so
strongly ins T 3ted on in this article, they will
find the Turkish, or hot air bath, not only the
best of all baths for acting on the skin, but also
the only subs'itute for exercise, acting. aB it does,
s’milar to the latter in eliminating morbid mat
ters from the system.
Effects of the Mind in Xursiug
W omen —As st tied in a former article, no
secretion is more influenced by the state of the
mind than the milk. A fretful temper diuiin-
ishes the quantity, makes it thin and watery,
causing disturbance of the child s bowels, fever,
griping, etc. Fits of anger have much the same
eff ct. Grief or anxiety of mind often so di
minishes the secretions as to render other nour
ishment necessary for the sastepanoe of the
child. Fear and terror seem to impart to the
milk a strong sedative effect. In iilus .ration of
this, Dr. Bell gives this remarkable case: ‘A car
penter fell into a quarrel with a soldier billited
at his house and was set upon by the latter with
his drawn sword. The wife of the carpenter at
first trembled from fear and terror, and then
suddenly threw herself furiously between the
combatants, wrested the sword from the sold
ier's hand, broke it in pieces and threw it away.
During the tumult, some neighbors came in and
separated the men. While in this strong state
of excitement, the mother took up the child
from the oradle, where it lay playing, and in the
most perfect health, never having had a mo
ment’s illness; she gave it the breast, and in bo
doing sealed its fate. In a few moments the in
fant left off sucking, became restless, panted,
and sank dead upon its mother's bosom. The
pbysici in who was called in found the child
lying in the cradle as if asleep and wi.h the feat
ures undisturbed, but all his resources were
fruitless. It was irrevocably gone.’ The im
portance of this subject is my excuse for reour-
ring to it again, and for giving the above details
in addition to the more general remarks in a
previous aaticle.
KursiiiK Too Eong —For reasons known
to most mothers, the period of nursing is often
nnduly prolonged, with great injury both to
mothers and ohildren. As the symptoms aris
ing from such a eonrse are likely to be overlook
ed I give them for the benefit of those interested,
using the language of an inexperienced physi
cian, the truthfulness of whioh will be reoog-
nized by many snffering women. He says:
•The earliest symptom is a dragging sensation of
the back when the child is in the aot of snoking,
and an exhausted feeling of sinking and empti
ness at the pit of the stomach afterwards. This
is soon followed by loss of appetite, costive
bowels, and pain in tbe left side. The head
will be more or loss affected; sometimes with
more or less throbbing, singing in the ears, and
always some degree of giddiness, with great de-
pession of spirits. Soon the chest becomes af
fected and breathing is short accompanied by a
dry cough, and palpitation of the heart npon
the slightest exertion. As the disease advances,
the conntenanee becomes pale, and the flesh
wasted, and profuse night perspiration, gre. t
debility, swelling of the ankles, and nervous
ness ensne.’
The affects on the infant as given by the same
writer are no less serious: ‘Born in perfect
health, and having continned so np to this pe
riod, it will now begin to full off in its appear
ance^ for the mothers’ milk both in respect of
quality and quantity, will no longer afford due
nourishment. Its countenance will become
pale, its look sickly and aged, the flesh soft
and flabby, the limbs emaciated, the stomach
large, and the evacuations fetide and unnatural.
Aad in a very few weeks the blooming healthy
child will be changed into the pale sickly, peev
ish, wasted creature, whos life hardly appears
desirable. If tbe affects npon the infant should
not be so aggravated as those just described and
it subsequently live and thrive, there will be a
tendeney in such a constitution to sorofula and
consumption, to manifest itself at some future
period of life, nndonbtedly acquired from the
parent, and dependent upon the impaired state
of her health at the time of snoKling.’ The rem
edy in such cases is obvions—resort to a healthy
wet nurse, or raising by bottle.

LIVER REMEDY
AND
BLOOD PURIFIER
TONIC & CORDIAL.
This is not a patent medicine, but is prepared
under the direction of Dr. M. W. Case, from his
favorite prescription, which in an extensive
practice of over 27 years, he has found most
effective in all cases of disordered liver or im
pure blood. It is
ANTI-BILIOUS.
It, acts directly upon the liver, restoring it,
when diseased, to its normal condition, and in
regulating thoactivity of this great gland every
other organ of the system is benefited. In
Blood Diseases it has no equal as a purifier. It
Improves digestion and assists nature to elimi
nate all Impurities from the system, and while
it is the cheapest medicine in the market it is
also superior to all known remedies. \V Mile it
is more effectual than Blue Mass, It is mild and
f erfectly safe, containing nothing that can in
he slightest degree injure the system. It does
not sicken or give pain, neither does it weaken
the patient nor leave the system constipated,
as most other medicines do.

THE ONLY PERFECT FAC-SIMILE OF THE REAL DIAMOND m THE WORLD.
Pronounced by the Academy of France that M. Lefevre has really obtained artificially the true diamond.
The basis of these gems are pure crystals found in the Sierra Nevadas from whence thov are exported
to the Lefevre Laboratory iu Paris, France, where they arp submitted to a chemical and voltaic process,
BY WHICn THEIR SURFACES ARE COVERED WITH \ COWING OF PURE DIAMONDS,
Imparting to them all the Bktlltancy, Hardness, and refractive qualities of tbe natural diamond, and
making them as desirable for Wear, Brilliancy, ntul Bcanrr. as the veritable gems themselves.
