These precautions of the Indians sufficiently prove that, notwithstanding the different organization of the epidermis, the copper-coloured man, like the white man, suffers from the stings of insects; but the former seems to feel less pain, and the sting is not followed by those swellings which, during several weeks, heighten the irritability of the skin, and throw persons of a delicate constitution into that feverish state which always accompanies eruptive maladies.
There is here no concentration of vitality in special parts of the structure, as in the higher animals, but the nervous force is scattered through the whole body, every ring having, on its lower side, either two nervous swellings, one on the right, the other on the left side, connected by nervous threads with those that precede and those that follow them, or these swellings being united in the median line.
"Not so, your worship; there will only be a few blue swellings and bleeding noses nothing more," said Cocceji, laughing. "Ah, you laugh young man; you laugh at this sad spectacle!" "Forgive me, your worship; but I swear to you, I have never seen warriors more eager in the fray, and I have never been more curious to witness the result of any battle."
On another occasion, Vatinius, a man of rude manners and often insolent in court to the magistrates, who had large swellings on his neck, came before his tribunal and made some request, and on Cicero's desiring further time to consider it, told him that he himself would have made no question about it, had he been praetor.
The Collector tapped gently and affectionately on all the swellings and protuberances of his various pockets, and said: "Oh, well, some very nice things all sorts of curiosities. A battle-axe, a pair of thunderbolts, some heathen rings beautiful things all covered with green rust ash-urns, tear-bottles, three idols and a pair of valuable lamps."
Their faces had a cadaverous hue, which could not but be remarked. Their eyes, too, seemed heavy, and deep set in the head; while many had their throats bandaged, from the effects of glandular swellings, brought on by the marshy exhalations. Acme threw some small pieces of Neapolitan money amongst them; and their gratitude in consequence was boundless.
But when Frank came to consider everything, he decided that it was no more than fair that he should give his persistent foe a certain amount of punishment. Again and again Frank cross countered and upper-cut Diamond, and gradually he came to strike harder as the Virginian forced the fighting, without showing signs of letting up. Bruises and swellings began to appear on Diamond's face.
Strong blisters and violent medicines should never be used. Very much less treatment will affect the infant than that required for an older child. And in almost every case the most durable cures are reached by gradual progress. Children's Swellings. Sometimes these occur as merely relaxed tissue full of blood. In this case everything about the part seems right and healthy except the swelling.
The feet are now covered with swellings filled with water, which cause her as much pain as if they were ulcers; she suffers day and night. Whatever they may say, there has been no other swelling of the feet since those blisters appeared. The swelling has now entirely disappeared, but the pain is greater than before.
It is when this is done by metallic preparations that such cases become very grave and even hopeless. There is a prominent error in connection with all dropsical tendencies, which should be removed. That is the idea that the "water" which collects in such swellings is similar to good drinking water, and that giving the thirsty patient water to drink is increasing his illness.
