Excerpt from The Patients' and Physicians' Aid: Or How to Preserve Health, What to Do in Sudden Attacks, or Until the Doctor Comes, and How Best to Profit by His Directions When Given
We send it forth upon its mission, trusting that it will aid both patient and physician, and that its advice may be heeded by those whom it may concern. It can not take the place of the medical attendant, but will enable you to do what you may do with propriety until he arrives, and to implicitly follow out his directions afterward. Many a child has been lost from an acci dent or. Attack which a parent might have relieved, and many a good doctor has properly prescribed a poultice, a bath, a fomentation, or injection, when, from the ignorance of the attendants, they have done more harm than good.
