INTESTINAL ILLS 
BY 
Alcinous 6. Jamison, M.D., 
Specialist in Rectal, Anal, 
and Bowel Diseases. 
This is a hygienic work intended chiefly for the non- 
professional reader, revealing in plain language what has 
perplexed even the ablest of physicians—the key to the 
cause and cure of all forms of bowel trouble, including 
not only constipation and diarrhea, but also indigestion, in 
its various manifestations, and biliousness. The book ex- 
plains the process of self-poisoning (commonly known as 
auto-infection or auto-intoxication) and its outcome— 
anemia, emaciation, etc. This portion of the work is espe- 
cially interesting, for the subject is treated more fully in 
“Intestinal Ills” than in any work that even physicians have 
access to. The book also includes a full explanation of piles, 
fistula, abscess, pruritis (itching of the anus), inflammation, 
etc. 
The importance of this work is further shown by the 
following summary of the chapters: 1. Man, Composed Almost Wholly of Water, is Con- 
stipated. Why? 
2. The Physics of Digestion and Egestion. 
3. The Interdependence of the Anus, Rectum, Sigmoid 
Flexure, and Colon. 
4. Indigestion, Intestinal Gas, and Other matters. 
5. Key to Auto-infection. 
6. How Auto-infection Affects the Gastric Digestion, and 
Vice Versa. 
7. How Auto-infection Affects Intestinal Digestion, and 
Vice Versa. 
8. The Cause of Constipation and How We Ignorantly 
Treat It. 
9. Cures for Constipation “Fearfully and Wonderfully 
Made. ” 
10. Biliousness and Bilious Attacks. 
11. King Liver and Bile-bouncers. 
12. Semi-constipation and Its Dangers. 
13. The Etiology of the Most Common Form of Diarrhea, 
i. e., Excessive Intestinal Peristalsis. 
14. Ballooning of the Rectum. 
15. Ballooning of the Rectum (Continued). 
16. Erroneous Diagnoses and Treatment of Bowel Troubles. 
17. Costiveness. 
18. Inflammation. 
19. Proctitis and Piles. 
20. Pruritus, or Itching of the Anus. 21. Abscess and Fistula. 
22. The Origin and Use of the Enema. 
23. How Often Should an Enema be Taken? 
24. Physiological Irrigation. 
25. Proper Treatment for Diseases of the Anus and Rectum 
Very Essential. 
26. The Body’s Book-keeping. 
27. Selection and Preparation of Food. 
28. Diet for Indigestion. 
29. Diet for Constipation. 
30. Costiveness, Diet, etc. 
31. Diet for Diarrhea. 
32. A Final Word. 
The work is so simple and practical that it is admirably 
adapted to the needs of the family circle. If you follow it3 
directions, especially as to “physiological irrigation,” you 
will probably never need a physician as long as you live. 
The book is the outcome of over twenty years’ experience 
in the treatment of intestinal diseases. It is therefore author- 
itative and of permanent value. 
The body of nearly every human being is a pest-house 
of absorbed poisons, due, not to constipation alone, but to 
indigestion, biliousness, etc.—the result of either ignorance, 
carelessness, “over-civilization,” or mal-treatment. Suppose 
you convert your body into a worthy temple of an aspiring 
soul. 
Make a present of this book to some individual or family that may be in need of its light. By so doing you 
will perform an act of unselfish kindness.
