Robert Kemp Philp
624
1762.
Early
Rising.
Dr.
Wilson
Philip,
in
his
"Treatise
on
Indigestion,"
says:
"Although
it
is
of
consequence
to
the
debilitated
to
go
early
to
bed,
there
are
few
things
more
hurtful
to
them
than
remaining
in
it
too
long.
Getting
up
an
hour
or
two
earlier
often
gives
a
degree
of
vigour
which
nothing
else
can
procure.
For
those
who
are
not
much
debilitated,
and
sleep
well,
the
best
rule
is
to
get
out
of
bed
soon
after
waking
in
the
morning.
This
at
first
may
appear
too
early,
for
the
debilitated
require
more
sleep
than
the
healthy;
but
rising
early
will
gradually
prolong
the
sleep
on
the
succeeding
night,
till
the
quantity
the
patient
enjoys
is
equal
to
his
demand
for
it.
Lying
late
is
not
only
hurtful,
by
the
relaxation
it
occasions,
but
also
by
occupying
that
part
of
the
day
at
which
exercise
is
most
beneficial."
1763.
Appetite.
Appetite
is
frequently
lost
through
excessive
use
of
stimulants,
food
taken
too
hot,
sedentary
occupation,
costiveness,
liver
disorder
and
want
of
change
of
air.
The
first
endeavour
should
be
to
ascertain
and
remove
the
cause.
Change
of
diet,
and
change
of
air
will
frequently
be
found
more
beneficial
than
medicines.
1764.
Temperance.
"If,"
observes
a
writer,
"men
lived
uniformly
in
a
healthy
climate,
were
possessed
of
strong
and
vigorous
frames,
were
descended
from
healthy
parents,
were
educated
in
a
hardy
and
active
manner,
were
possessed
of
excellent
natural
dispositions,
were
placed
in
comfortable
situations
in
life,
were
engaged
only
in
healthy
occupations,
were
happily
connected
in
marriage,
and
kept
their
passions
in
due
subjection,
there
would
be
little
occasion
for
medical
rules."
