Excerpt from The California Eclectic Medical Journal, 1910, Vol. 3: Incorporating the Los Angeles Journal of Eclectic Medicine and the California Medical Journal The prevailing practice in cases where the kidneys are ln volved is to prescribe diuretics to increase the flow of urine. The patient is likewise instructed to drink as much water as possible to flush the kidneys and thus compel them to work even when they are already overworked or worn out. The fad of drinking large quantities of water to force the kidneys is a mistake. It was started in ignorance and is foolishly followed by many well meaning, but misguided people. Instead of pre scribing diuretics, give the kidneys a rest and use means to get the skin to acting. Work the skin but spare the kidneys. If men would pay more attention to the condition of the skin and quit worrying about the kidneys it would be an act of wisdom. A good rule for the average citizen to adopt is to exercise more and eat less. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The California Eclectic Medical Journal, 1916, Vol. 37: Incorporating the Los Angeles Journal of Eclectic Medicine and the California Medical Journal The reason is against the rule and no such rule should ever be adopted by any sane people. The logical conclusion drawn from the observations among medical experts on gynecology is that it is possible and prob able for human pregnancy to be prolonged beyond the usually admitted normal period; but the question how far beyond is rather difficult to answer; though the greater amount of deviation, the stronger and more convincing should be the proofs. As Taylor remarks, We must be prepared to admit either that conception may, in some cases be delayed for so long a period as five to seven weeks after intercourse, or that there may be a difference of from five to seven weeks in dura tion of pregnancy. Wincle states that A pregnancy may vary from 240 to 320 days and even exceed the latter limit. Nearly seven per cent of the cases are over 300 days.

Excerpt from The California Eclectic Medical Journal, 1911, Vol. 4: Incorporating the Los Angeles Journal of Eclectic Medicine and the California Medical Journal It is patent, then, to every independent observer, that to employ triturations does not relegate one to the realms of homeopathy. As much might the use of our specific medicines by many homeopaths, in exactly the manner in which we use them, and for the same purposes, confirm them as Eclectics. Undoubtedly many of these practitioners would be indignant if they were accused of being Eclectics. Such is the penalty of subserviency to creeds and dogmas. To independent minds such accusations bear no odium; for creeds and dogmas exert no influence for or against the curing of the sick.
