Milk for Typhoid Fever.
Baltimore Day.
Surgeon General Barnes, about
three years ago, heard of an allopa
thic physician in Virginia who, it is
alleged, never failed to cure typhoid
fever. As there were many patients
in the United States army dying
with that disease, General Barnes
decided to visit the ancient Virgin
ia doctor and learn how he treated
his typhoid patients. When he met
the old gentleman General Barnes
inquired: “What is the mode of
treatment by which you succeed ?”
“Why, replied the venerable physi
cian, “it is the simplest thing in the
would. All you have to do is to get
the patient’s stomach in good order
and then diet them on buttermilk;
that’s all. I never lose a patient if
he isn’t in a collapsed condition
when I get to him.” Surgeon Gen
eral Barnes tells me that he adopted
the buttermilk treatment among
the soldiers in the army and has
found it most efficacious. It appears
that some ten years ago the medical
scientists of France and Russia
compared notes as to the use of
plain sweet milk in the treatment
of their typhoid patients and con
curred in the decision that milk not
only is a wonderful efficacy in ty-
phoidal cases but in the treatment
of fevers generally. An eminent
medical man, a professor in a New
York eclectical medical college—
Dr. Newton—informed your corres
pondent a few weeks before he died
(his death took place about a year
ago) that lie had found to he sub
stantially true all that is set forth
relative to plain sweet milk and
buttermilk, and that the latter acted
like a charm in cases of nervous
debility. It’s a great blessing—this
discovery,” said he.

Ile says: “Never sit down to a table
with an anxious or disturbed mind;
better intermit that meal; eating
under such circumstances can only
prolong and aggravate the condi
tion of things. Never sit down to
a meal after any intense mental
effort, for physical and mental inju
ry are inevitable. Never go to a
full table during bodily exhaustion.
The wisest thing you can do under
such circumstances is to take a bis
cuit and a cup of warm tea, either
black or green, and no more. In ten
minutes you will feel a degree of re
freshment and liveliness which will
be pleasantly surprising to you; not
of the transient kind which a glass
of liquor affords, but permanent; for
the tea gives prompt stimulus, and
a little strength, and before it sub
sides nutriment begins to be drawn
from the sugar, cream, and biscuit,
thus allowing the body gradually,
and by safe degrees, to regain its
usual vigor. Then, in a couple of

STONEWALL JACKSON’S WAY.
At a meeting of Confederate and
Federal otticers in Washington, af
ter the war, General Grant was
present. During the evening the
General taking up a volume that
contained it, read aloud the anony
mous poem that we give below. Ho
pronounced it the best ballad that
had been produced on either side
during the war. “And,” said he,
“when the bitterness of the struggle
shall have passed away, and the
question shall be, noton which side
a man fought, but how he did his
duty, when that time comes, the
figure that Avill stand out most
prominent and heroically, will be
that of Stonewall Jackson.—Ed.
Come stack anus men, pile on the rails!
Stir up the camp-fire bright;
No matter if the canteen fails,
We’ll make a roaring night.
Here Shenandoah brawls along,
Here burly Blue Bulge echoes strong,
To swell the brigade’s rousing song,
Of “Stonewall Jackson’s" way.
We see him now—the old slouched hat
Cocked o’er his eyes askew—
The shrewd, dry smile—the speech so pat
So calm, so blunt, so true.
’llie “Blue Light Elder” knows ’em :well
Says he “That's Banks; he’s fond of shell
Lord save his soul! we’ll give him”—well
That's “Stonewall Jackson’s way.”
Silence! ground arms! kneel all! caps off,
Old “Blue Light's” going to pray,
Strangle the fool who (lares to scoff!
Attention! its liis way!
In forma pauperis to God,
“Lay hare thine arm! stretch forth thy
rod!
Amen!’’ That'sStonewall's way.
He’s in the saddle now: Fall in!
Steady! The whole brigade!
Hill’s at t lie ford, cut oft'; we’ll win
His way out, ball and blade.
"What matter if our shoes are worn?
What matter if our feet are toru?
Quick step! we're with him before dawn!
Thiit’s Stonewall Jackson’s way .
