    \ ffi < * c f OBSERVATIONS ON OF WHITE MUSTARD SEED, IN AFFECTIONS OF THE LIVER, INTERNAL ORGANS, AND jlletDous System: AND ON THE GENERAL MANAGEMENT OF HEALTH AND LIFE. BY CHARLES TURNER COOKE, CONSULTING AND OPERATING 8URGEON, at “ Whatever hope the dreams of speculation may suggest, of observing the pro¬ portion between nutriment and labour, and keeping the body in a healthy state by supplies exactly suited to its waste, we know that, in effect, the vital powers, unexcited by action, grow gradually languid; that as their vigour fails, obstruc¬ tions are generated, and from obstructions proceed most of those pains which wear us away slowly by periodical tortures, and which, although they sometimes suffer life to be long, condemn it to be useless, chain us down to the couch of misery, and mock us with the hopes of death.”—Johnson.
