CHECKED PERSPIRATION. This is the fruitful cause of sickness disease, and death to multitudes every year. If a tea-kettle of water is boiling on the fira (team is seen issuing from the spout, carrying the extra heat with it. but if the lid be fastened down and the spout be plugged, a destructive explosion follows in a very short time. Heat is constantly generated within the human body by the chemical disorganisation, the combustion of the food we eai. There are seven millions of tubes or pores on the surface of the body, which in health are constantly open, conveying from the system by what is called insensible perspiration this internal heat, which, having answered its purpose, is passed off like the jets of steam which are thrown from the escape-pipe, in puSs, of any ordinary steam engine; but this insensible perspiration carries with it, in a dissolved form, very much of the waste matter of the system, to Owextent of a pound or two or more, every rtenty-four hours. It must be apparent, then, that if the pores of the skin are closed, 11 the multitude of valves which an placed •ver the whole surface of the human body Ute shut down, two things take place. First, the internal brat is prevented from passing off, it accumulates every moment, the person expresses himself as burning up, and large draughts of water are swallowed to qnencb the internal fire—this we call "Fever.' When the warm steam is constantly escaping torn the body in health it keeps the side moist, and there Is a soft pleasant feel and warmth about it. But when the pores are closed the skin feels harsh and hot and dry. But another result follows the closing oi the aires of the skin, and more immediately dafftvous: a main outlet for the waste of thebody is closed, it remingles with the blood, which, in a few hours, becomes impure. and begins to generate disease in every fibre of the system —the whole machinery of the man becomes at once disordered, and he expresses himself as fttling miserable." The terrible effects of checked perspiration of a dog, who sweats only by his tongue, is evinced by his becoming " mad." The water runs in streams from a dog's mouth in summer, if exercising freely. If it ceases to run that, is hydrophobia. If has been asserted by a French physician that if a person suffering under hydrophobia can be only made to perspire freely he is cured at once. It is familiar to the commonest observer that in ad ordinary forms of disease tbe patient begins to get better tbe moment he begins to perspire, simply because the internal heat ispassing off, and there is an outlet for ttw vasts of the system.
