ii. lappuse - In the Clerk's Office of the District Conrt of the United States for the Southern District of New York.
224. lappuse - The excess of carbonic acid gives, however, the water a briskness, productive of a very different effect on the palate from what an imperfect mixture of the earths would produce. The first effects of this water, due to its temperature and gaseous contents, when drunk, are a feeling of warmth at the stomach, with a sensation of fullness of the head, and some giddiness.
225. lappuse - The harassing cough to which young persons are occasionally subject, and which often has its origin in an enfeebled state of the stomach, or in scrofulous habits from enlargement of the bronchial glands, as also the tussis humoralis of old people, will all be materially benefited by the use of these waters.
198. lappuse - ... perceived at some distance from the spring, and in taste it is cousin-german to a strong solution of Epsom salts and magnesia. In a short time, however, strange to say, these disagreeable properties are either not observed, or become, on the other hand, attractive ; indeed, there is hardly an instance of an individual's retaining his original repugnance to them longer than three or four days, and some there are who become so excessively fond of the water as to give it the preference over any...
34. lappuse - ... gas. Meanwhile, physicians stationed at the several watering-places were active in observing and noting the various operations of the different waters on the human system, and in determining, from experience, the various cases in which they were beneficial or injurious. Experience the only sure Guide in the Administration, etc. After all that science can effect in determining the component parts of mineral waters, it is experience alone in their use that can be fully relied upon as to their...
84. lappuse - The alkaline bases are also in very small proportion, and seem to be united to the silicious earths, in combination with a peculiar organic matter. The organic matter, in its physical and chemical character, resembles that found in the water of the Red Sulphur Springs, and differs essentially from the organic matter of some thermal waters.
126. lappuse - ... perfectly fresh state, it would be totally unadapted. But even in its least stimulating form, it is inadmissible for excited or febrile conditions of the system ; and especially to cases of inflammatory action at least, until the violence of such action has been subdued by other and appropriate agents. Various diseases of the stomach, liver, spleen, kidneys, and bladder, as well as some derangements of the brain and nervous system generally, are treated successfully by this agent. To the...
54. lappuse - I am about to make) for an individual to arrive, furnished with a ' carte blanche* from a physician who has probably little or no knowledge of the active properties of the agent he recommends, to use the water as he may see fit, or with merely a charge to ' use it with caution. ' Others are sent without any direction whatever, in the hope that the water may suit their condition, and come trusting in Providence alone. Others, again, arrive with written instructions to drink so many glasses of the...
76. lappuse - ... blasts and the summer's heat; any apparent variation from this temperature will be found, I think, to be owing to the difference in thermometers, as repeated trials with the same instrument prove the temperature to be uniform. The principal spring yields about thirty gallons per minute ; and it is a remarkable fact that this quantity is not perceptibly increased or diminished during the longest spells of wet or dry weather; while other bold springs of the country have failed during the long droughts...
247. lappuse - It is well known that an earthquake, or an eruption of a volcano, has often produced a change in the temperature of thermal springs that were even at some distance from the place where these phenomena occurred.
