PFE SPRING NO. 2. BUFFALO LITHIA WATER certainly acts better than any extemporaneous solution of the Lithia Salts. The efficacy of this water in affections of the nervous system, complicated with Bright's disease of the kidneys or with a gouty diathesis, nervous dyspepsia, nervous prostration, stone in the blad- der, etc., etc., etc. uns Washington, D C., Surgeon- William A. Hammond, [1.D. (2g eae. Sormerly Professor of Diseases of the Mind and Nervous System in the University of New York, ete.: ‘*There is a point in relation to the therapeutical efficacy of the Buffalo Lithia Water which has not as yet, I think, received sufficient attention. It is well known that many cases of diseases of the nervous system are com- plicated with lithamia, and that unless this condition is removed a cure is very often retarded and not infrequently entirely prevented. It is quite commonly the case that in Cerebral Congestion producing Insomnia, Nervous Prostration, resulting from overmental work or much emotional disturbance, and in Epilepsy (to say nothing of many cases of insanity) an excess of uric acid in the blood is often observed. Thisstate appears to be altogether independent of the character of the food, for no matter how careful the physician may be in regard to the diet of his patient, the lithemic condition continues. I have tried to overcome this persistence by the use of phosphate of ammonia and other so-called solvents for uric acid, but without notable effect. “Several years ago, however, I began to treat such cases with Buffalo Lithia Water, with a result that was as astonishing to me as it was beneficial to the patient, so that now inall cases of nervous diseases under my charge in which there is an excess of uric acid in the blood, I use the Buffalo Lithia Water in large quantities. By this I mean that I do not have the patient drink merely a tumbler or two in the course of a day, but that I flood him, so to speak, with the Water, making him drink a gallon or even more in the twenty-four hours. By this course the urine after a few days ceases to deposit uric acid crystals on standing, the morbid irritability of the patient disappears, the tongue becomes clean, the wan- dering pains in the head are abolished, and the system is rendered much more amen- able to the special treatment which may be necessary for the cure of the disease from which the patient suffers. “T have tried carbonate of lithia dissolved in water in various propor- tions, but it certainly does not, in cases to which I refer, have the same effect as Buffalo Lithia Water.” And as a matter of prime importance it is not to be forgotten that the composition of the Buffalo Lithia Water is such, and the experience of its use so complete, that no doubt exists of its great power not only as a solvent for calculi already in the bladder, but for the elements of such calculi exist- ing in the blood.
