COMPLETE INDEX OF SYMPTOMS. Diagnosis is the distinction of one disease from another by its symp- toms. In all forms of disease which afflict men, women, and children there are certain signs put forth called symptoms, which, if carefully observed, enable one to tell what particular malady or complaint is present. Diag- nosis precedes all intelligent measures for the relief of disease, as it is plainly evident that without a correct diagnosis all administering of medi- cine is but \"firing in the dark,\" and is as likely to miss the mark as to hit it. HOW TO USE THE \"GUIDE TO DIAGNOSIS.\" To use the \" Guide,\" having observed one or more marked symptoms in the case under consideration, you will find them in the Index, which is ar- ranged alphabetically. For instance, supposing you feel a ^^ sharp pain in one side near the short ribs,^^ with \" coughing up of matter mixed with bloody^^ with ^^ pulse strong and vibrating \"/ on referring to the Index you find a reference in each case to a definite page, and on turning to that page you find the disease under consideration is Pleurisy, and you can there read all about it — how to treat and cure it. We see in this that the \" Guide \" leads unerringly to the detection of the nature and name of the disease, and enables us to proceed with confidence in its treatment. In observing symptoms, attention should always be directed to those parts and functions of the body which give the earliest and most marked indications of disorder. These are the Head, Face, Eyes, Tongue, Throat, Mouth, Breath, Breathing, Teeth, Nose, Breast, Heart, Internal Organs generally, Vomiting, Discharges from the Bowels, Extremities, Pulse, and general appearance of the whole Body. By a careful and judicious use of this \" Guide,\" in connection with the full descriptions of the various diseases given in the body of the work, every one can be able, in a brief time, to discern tahat is the matter in each case of sickness that may occur, and thus administer the proper treatment with certainty and confidence.
