Those who are attempting to c themselves of any disease will do well to use two or three quart; of | water a day, even though they do not feel irsty for this-amount. The purest water obtainable should be used, and if any doubt exists as to the purity of the water, it is al- ways a sefe plan to use distilled wa- ter, which is entirely free from min- erals and bacterial microorganisms. In certain disorders where w-ter canhot be taken through the mouth, the system can be well supplied with sufficient water through the use of the Murphy-drip attachment, which can be used with any ordinary foun- tain syringe. This treatment is taken in much the same way as an erema except that the flow of wa- ter is controlled so that it enters the intestines drop by drop cnd is ab- scrbei through the intcytine walls.
