Описание: Excerpt from A Complete List of Mineral Waters, Foreign and Domestic, With Their Analysis, Uses and Sources

Great curative powers have always been ascribed to certain natural sources of waters springing from the ground, and differing for the most part from ordi nary sources, either by the success or remarkable character of their constituents, or by their temperature; the savage of America, the Romans, the inhabitants of Asia, not to speak of the modems, have all expressed in various modes their conviction of the fact. The way in which some of the more important springs have been discovered - either by the congress of animals and their cure from various diseases (and there are more authentic narratives of the kind than that of Bladud and his swine), or by the fortuitous cures in man, many of which are well authenticated, is in itself a strong presumption in favor of the actual power of many mineral waters. But when we add to this the fact, that the chemical composition of many waters is that of very powerful medicinal agents; when we consider the effects which, on physiological principles, are likely to result from the imbibition of quantities of water, well imbued with mineral principles, as well as from bathing in such waters, hot or cold, little doubt can remain as to the possession of real power by mineral waters. Nor to this, that the rem edy, such as it is, is generally administered with all the accessories likely to in crease its beneficial action. Removal from care, good air and exercise, and improved hygienic relations, are almost always employed in conjunction with this cure.
