Prostration is in short, “ played out,’ and the practitioners who still cling to it are so few and far between tha* they cannot, like their predecessors of the same fata] school who nourished half a century ago, till thegravoyard with their victims. The introduction of liostetter's Stomach Bitters in 1352 was the heaviest blow that.the old practice of depletion had ever received and from that time to the present, as the celebrity of the great vegetable invigorant has Increased, file purging, blistering, bleeding, water-gruel practice has declined.
