I HE, INDISPUTABLY, PERNICIOUS EFFECTS, upon health,


|
I
I due to the material and form of the ordinary clothing of the |
present day, were hardly suspected until Dr. Gustav Jaeger, of Stuttgart,
I |
I
began to publish the results of his investigation on the subject. I

This distinguished German physician has established the fact, that |


I !
i most bodily derangements may be prevented or cured, or greatly alleviated, I
^ • • ^
f by the adoption of proper clothing; and he has constructed a system based
^ I
I
on the principle of pure, animal fiber, for clothing and bedding. Hence |
I
I the "Dr. Jaeger Sanitary Woolen System." It affords to the body the |

^
greatest protection against Cold, Heat and Dampness, with the least ob- |

I struction to the body's exhalations. These conditions are instinctively felt I

I to be better fulfilled by woolen, than by linen or cotton fabrics. Hence the |


I very general use of flannel garments by athletes and by members of cricket, |

I
boating, and other sporting clubs, who are called upon to engage in vigor-
|
^ ous, physical exercise likely to cause profuse perspiration, which is simply I

$ an intensification of the action of the skin, incessantly going on, with more |
^ or less activity, and ceasing only with life itself. Dr. Jaeger reasons as fol- |
I lows : If this action of the skin be imperfect, impeded, or repressed by any |
I cause, fat and water accumulate in the tissues, the functional powers of which |
are lowered and weakened ; and the flesh, which should feel elastic, firm and |
I
I hard, becomes soft and flabby, resulting in a general derangement of the
|
i physical organization; and the evil eflfect on the body is experienced in |
i the form of many disorders which are erroneously considered to be more |

I or less inevitable and ineradicable, such as corpulence, asthma, pulmonary |

I
complaints, diseases of the digestive organs, gout, rheumatism, etc.
|
f k
I All fabrics manufactured from, or adulterated with, vegetable fiber, (linen |
or cotton,) or silk, are impervious to the body's exhalations, which are
I |
I arrested and turned to water on the skin, if, at any point, underclothing or |
f lining of such fiber, intervene, between the body and the outer atmosphere. |
^ ^
Linen and cotton are, moreover, good conductors of heat, and thus, espe-
I |
I cially when damp, readily cause a chill. Further, dead vegetable fiber has
|
I the same property that the living plant has, of absorbing noxious gases, |
I but it cannot, like the plant, digest or assimilate them. |
I I
I In view, therefore, of the importance of maintaining a healthy and |

I normal action of the skin, not only for persons: of active habits and pur- |

I suits, but especially for those engaged in sedentary occupations, Dr. |


I Jaeger selects Animal wool as the proper substance for his "Sanatory |

I Clothing," and rejeds all linen,for tmderwear and for


cotton attd silk \

I bedding, as obstructive of the natural processes of absorption and evap- I

I
oration. The advantages of this material seem obvious, as, when woven |

2. The properties of a non-conductor of heat so essential to the preserva-
|
I tion of an equable temperature of the body
|

I J. The property of promoting the elimination, from the tissues, of all |


I excess of fat and water, thus making the flesh firm, and hardening \
aiui toughening the muscles. \
I
I I
I As hitherto woven, woolen fabrics are objectionable to many because |

I they irritate the skin and cause a feeling of intense discomfort, by prevent- |

I ing the proper escape of the exudations of the skin, and, as a rule, they |

I are so heavy as to be intolerable for summer wear. To remove these I


^ ^
p
objectionable features, and to make woolen clothing truly sanatory, and |

I suitable for all seasons — protecting from oppressive heat in summer and |

p maintaining a proper degree of warmth in winter — Dr. Jaeger has ma- I

I terially modified the usual processes of weaving woolen fabrics, and |


I adopted a method which produces a much less closely-woven texture than

I the ordinary flannel ; and all underwear for ladies, gentlemen and children |

^ is made of "Stockinet," undyed or natural gray, very porous, agreeable ^

I and durable. |
i . . I
I
From these conditions, together with the conformity in construction of
|

I the garments to the human anatomy, arise what Dr. Jaeger specifically |
claims as

THE SflNITIlRY SDVflNTIlGES OF PURE ANIMAL WOOL.


g
I I. Wool "gently stimulates the skin," /. e., to that degree necessary ^

^ to excite and maintain its normal activity in secreting and extruding the |

I waste matter, and surplus fat and water of the body. ^

I ^
II. Wool, relatively to linen and cotton, is a non-conductor of heat
I . ^

I and electricity, and, therefore, tends to preserve to the animal body its
^

I normal measure of these vital energies. |

I III. Wool, woven and made up according to the Jaeger methods, by ^


% \

p
reason of its permeability to moisture, (the vaporous exhalations of the ^

^
skin,) promotes the elimination of the effete matters, and the reduction of S

i the abnormal or excessive heat of the animal body ; and this is the reason |
I . I
I why /he body, even when freely perspirmg, remains dry in woolen clo/hittg,
\

I while in linen or cotton, it becomes wet —a fact of common experience with |


^ . ^
^
all who engage in athletic exercises.
|
1 I
i IV. Wool thus co-operates with the skin to regulate, bv
'
its exhalations, |
2 ^
^ the temperature of the body, the wool supplementing the efforts of the |
^ . ^
I skin to dispose of excess of heat, whether proceeding from internal or ^

^ external sources, thus maintaining that equable state which is the true ^

^ condition of health and comfort. Hence it is, that wool is better than |

'/. linen or cotton as a preventive of the overheating of the blood, through

I internal heat ; and that woolen clothing is less oppressively hot than linen

I or cotton in summer, and, therefore, more agreeable and healthful in the

I hottest climates.

I V. Wool is electrical, while linen and cotton are not; ?'.


e., wool gen-

I erates electricity, but does not conduct it. It follows, therefore, that a

I body clothed in wool loses less of its animal electricity, while fresh elec-

I
tricity is produced on the surface. Most people are familiar with the

I facility with which the human body conducts electricity. Cotton ranks

I next to it as a conductor, while wool is classed with non-conductors and


I insulators, and, for that reason, is called an electric, or generator of elec-

I tricity. When the air is clear and dry, place a person upon a stool or

I
chair, the legs of which are supported from the floor by glass tumblers,

I and beat him gently on the back with a woolen or camel-hair shawl, and
I sparks may be drawn from his nose, or fingers, from one-fourth to three-

I
fourths of an inch long — or large enough to light the gas of a burner,

'/
or to charge a Leyden jar. Probably every reader has seen and heard elec-
^.

trie sparks on withdrawing a woolen stocking — never from taking off a |


cotton one. There is no manifest electricity, in the latter case, because
|
the cotton fiber conducts it away — dissipates it.
|

The Sanitary Woolen System is, therefore, salutary for those whose |

bodies are deficient in animal heat or electricity. With persons leading 5^

sedentary lives, the action of the skin is deficient, and it requires the |
stimulating aid of the woolen clothing, which materially assists in elimina- |
ting from the tissues the excess of water and fatty matter always tending to |
accumulate when insufficient exercise is taken. |

The System checks the tendency to congestion of blood in particular !:<

parts, as in the head — causing vertigo, headache, ringing in the ears, |


apoplexy, etc. — and in the chest, causing pains, asthma, coughing, etc.,
|
and tends to prevent the setting in of lung disease, hemorrhoids, spitting |
of blood, and other fluxions of blood. |
I
The System is salutary in cases of Catarrh, accumulation of phlegm |

fluxions and gouty affections, disorders of the digestive organs, &c. , and |
for nervous, hypochondriacal and hysterical persons, whose health is espe- |

cially dependent on the unimpeded action of the skin. It is salutary


|
during, and after all serious illnesses, tending to alleviate the severity of the |

attack, and to prevent relapses ; and is very beneficial to persons sensitive |

to changes of temperature. In a word, there can be no better protection |

against heat, cold, wet, electric and other atmospheric influences. It is, |

therefore, indispensable to people living in climates or conditions subject |

to sudden changes. |
I
It is hardly possible to give too much prominence to the fact, that Sana- I

tory Woolen Clothing affords great protection to those exposed to the in- |
fection of Diphtheria, Cholera, Typhus, the Plague, Dysentery, the |

Small Pox, as well as the Measles and Chicken Pox; a fact which Dr. Jaeger |
has abundantly demonstrated on scientific ground, and with rigorous prac- |
tical tests. ( See " Health Culture," p. 79.) |

THROAT MD CflTflRRHUL AFFECTIONS.


I
I
All persons afflicted with any degree of bronchial, laryngeal or catarrhal |
affections of any kind, have noticed how suddenly the unpleasant symp-
|
toms are aggravated by the slightest chill or access of cold, and how care- |
ful they have to be, to avoid exposure to drafts and changes of weather.

i?.

^ In all these cases the Sanatory Woolen Clothing is both curative and
preventive. // ads upon these diseases by assislmg the efforts of the skin to
I

I expel the morbific secretions whose suppression and retention in the body

I

is the cause of these disorders. The Sanatory Woolen fabric takes up, car-

I ries off and disperses the impurities of the cutaneous excretions. Even
I the well man is not independent of precautionary measures. A present

$ sense of health and comfort is no excuse for neglecting any means calcu-

^ lated to preserve or increase these desirable conditions. The strong man


I of to-day, by a single imprudence or slight unconscious exposure, may be
I feeble and sick to-morrow.

Chills caused by draughts, or colds, damp clothes or bedding, are very


I
I dangerous, because the sudden suppression of the cutaneous exudations

I interferes with the circulation of the blood, thus disturbing the action of

I the lungs, the liver, the stomach, etc., and setting up conditions favora-

I ble to inflammation and fever.

I
I Their ?)iodus operandi may be summarized as follows

I
I The exhalations which are mal-odorous and noxious by reason of

I defective excretory action, are generated in the body during and after the

I
digestion of food, during all vital action in fact, or when the body is in-

^ vaded by disease, or the mind is at work, or disturbed by worry, gloom,


apger or fear, or indeed by any violent passion or strong emotion. For
I
I every act of mind or body is attended with destruction of tissue, con-
stituting so much waste matter, which becomes poisonous and potent

I for mischief, if not duly eliminated from the body. This elimination,

I it is the function of the skin, in an eminent degree, to do. The sudorific

I or sweat glands and their ducts are charged with this important office.

I There are about 7,000,000 of these little scavengers opening at the surface

I of the skin of an averaged-sized man, throwing oif from the surface from

I 28 to 32 ounces of refuse matter every 24 hours. The action of even a

I
small portion of them cannot be suspended without disturbance and
danger.
I

I
The body not only gives off its exhalations to the surrounding air, but

^ also communicates them to all objects with which it and its atmosphere

I come in contact.

I Metallic substances, glass, and wood of which the pores are closed by

^ paint, varnish, etc., are practically impervious to the exhalations, while the

I two classes of material next mentioned absorb them, but in a very difFer-

I ent degree. |

I I. All vegetable fibers, such as linen, cotton, hemp, jute, paper, unvar- |

I
nished and unpainted wood, silk, and unsanitarily dyed or dressed wool |

I
and leather, attract and absorb these "noxious," " self-poisoning" exhal- |
I ations, and become, when in contact with human beings, gradually offen- I

sive and even poisonous in their effect. Clothing, (including linings and |
I

I padding, ) and bedding made from such fibers, are agreeable and wholesome
|
I
only when quite new and just washed, but soon become saturated with |
^ ^
I
the "noxious" exhalations, producing discomfort, and, if wet, when the |

I
vapors are set free, becoming especially dangerous. |
I
II. All kinds of animal wool and hair, leather, (undressed, or sanitarily
|
dressed and dyed,) feathers, horn, readily absorb all the excretions of the |
skin, but they do not retain them, but transmit, and disperse them at their |
outer surfaces, by ji repulsive energy to which the self-cleansing properties
|
of hair and wool fabrics are properly due. The value of this feature of |
the woolen system, more particularly with reference to its surgical uses, I

is hardly to be exaggerated. |

I
To secure its full benefits, the System should be adopted in its entirety. |

A beginiiing may be made with underclothing, which is of the first im- |


portance. The outer clothing should be constructed after the Sanitary
|
styles. The upper and lower coverings of the bed should be woolen, |
or camel hair. The sleeping suit should be a stockinet night-shirt, long, I

light, soft and elastic ; or a woolen shirt with a combination consisting |


of drawers and socks. |
I
The stimulation, temporarily caused by cold baths, in the compara- |

lively stagnant blood-vessels on the surface of the bodies of wearers of |


ordinary linen or cotton clothing, is permanently supplied by the Sanatory |
Woolen Clothing. Wearers of the latter need not, therefore, rub the body |
dry after a bath, but in hot, dry weather they may even apply a wet |
sponge over the shirt before putting on the outer clothing. This may be |
done without danger, and the evaporation which ensues, counteracts the I
tendency to an excessive rush of blood to the surface of the body, and I

adds greatly to the refreshing effect of the bath. |

Time is required for the realization of the full benefits of the Sanitary |
I
Woolen System ; and those who adopt it should not be alarmed, misled |
or discouraged by symptoms consequent on the efforts of the skin to expel, |
through its secretions, any elements of disease previously retained in the |
body, from the repression of the exhalations by the ordinary, unsanatory

ble service, as, until these secretions are expelled, no permanent recovery
I

i is possible.

I The Sanitary Woolen System does not pretend to promise perfect

I health under all circumstances, any more than it promises to perpetuate

t existence. But wide experience has shown, that, by its adoption, disturb-

I ances of health are less frequent, and, when they do occur, sooner pass

p away, and seldom result in chronic disease. The relief afforded to even

the healthy body by its release from the confinement of the ordiitary, unsanatory

clothifig, is evinced by a previously-unkncrwn sense of health, vigor, buoyancy and

energy.

P The Sanitary Woolen System has proved an effectual and lasting cure

I for diseases (and there are many) caused through the enervation of the

tissues of the body by the action of its own, or external, " noxious
I

i vapors, and the System thus supplies an important gap in the science of

healing.

THE FUNDMENTllLS OF DR. JftEGER'8 SYSTEM AND THEORY JRE

I I. Animal wool is a material provided by Nature for the clothing of

I an animal body.
^.

I 2. Man, being an animal, can be clothed naturally or properly only in

animal clothing.

i 3. Woolen Clothing exerts its beneficial influences by virtue of its

I non-conductivity to heat and electricity, and its permeability to moisture.


i
I
I These properties of the Dr. Jaeger Woolen Fabrics, and their relation

to the functions and exhalations of the skin, constitute the basis of the

Dr. Jaeger Sanitary Woolen System.

^ The system is so allied to man s constitution, and is so connected with ^

all vital processes, that a full comprehension of it will not be acquired |


without some knowledge of man's anatomy and physiology. It is/true
|
that the most intelligent on these matters, are the first to embrace and sup- |

port the doctrines and theories of the distinguished German scientist. |


And for those who desire to understand his theories, as well as to profit by |
his discoveries, a way is provided by his publication, entitled "Health
|
Culture" — a book replete with information, common-sense and sound |
reasoning, and most important practical suggestions, based on his own |

observations and experiments, concisely stated and unobscured by scien- |

tific technicalities. It contains a clear exposition of his theory, with |


examples illustrative of his discoveries and principles. It can be had at a
|
trifling expense, and will amply repay, even the general reader, the time
|
given to its perusal. |

I
The following is the testimony of a high authority upon the value of |
Dr. Jaeger's book. W. H. Dixon, M. D., 35 Frederick Street, Sunder- |
land, Eng., writes, September, 1884 :
|
I
"How much health and comfort depend upon the construction and substance of
|
dress is scarcely at all understood. This subject has at last been scientifically studied and |
ably expounded by Dr. Jaeger, of Stuttgart, whose little book on Health Culture and
|
the Sanitary Woolen System, ought to be read by every intelligent person. The ^
thanks of the public are really due to Dr. Jaeger for the eminently useful and instructive ^
work." k

I
Here is a home witness whose testimony will be appreciated by the |

American public. Julian Hawthorne (in the " New York World") says :
|
I
"Every man and woman in America ought to read the little volume on 'Health ^
Culture and the Sanitary Woolen System, by Dr. Gustav Jaeger, of
' Stuttgart, of which |
a translation is published by Dr. Jaeger's Sanitary Woolen System Co., 827 Broadway. |
It is in some sort a trade publication — an advertisement of a business firm — but it is
|
not on that account the less valuable. Besides a great deal of wise counsel regarding
|
diet, ventilation and kindred subjects, it shows the high advantages of woolen over other ^
material for clothing, not only as a preservative of health, but as a cure and preventive of >^

many diseases. It is impossible to resist the Doctor's arguments, founded, as they are,
|
on science and practical experiment ; and the language in which the essays are written is
|
entirely devoid of technical difficulties, and has a familiar tone which renders the little
^
book intrinsically pleasant reading. The value of the Woolen System in the clothing of
|
children cannot be exaggerated, and those parents who have seen how their children ^
thrive by it, will not be slow in adopting it for themselves. The Jaeger Company will ^
not benefit more than their customers. ^

CAN WOOLEN GIIRMENTS BE MADE SUITABLE FOR SUMMER WEAR?

The feeling is instinctive that woolen clothing is "hot" in warm


I weather ; that if we wear wool in winter to keep us warm, we must wear
I something different in summer to keep us cool, or be inconsistent in

^ theory and practice.

I It is obvious to all how a non-conductor of heat — a woolen garment,


I for instance — prevents the escape of the heat of the body to a colder

I
atmosphere, or the ingress of heat to the body from a warmer atmos-
%
I phere: a familiar illustration of which is found in the practice of wrapping
|i ourselves in blankets to keep us warm, and wrapping ice in a blanket to

I keep it cold — to keep the heat in in the one case and out in the other.

I But it is not so easy to understand why we should clothe a warm body in

^ a blanket to cool it off, or keep it cool, when the surrounding air is in or

I near equilibrium with it.

I
^ But the explanation lies in —
I
^ I. The nature and condition of the body.
P
i 2. The woolen fabric's two-fold property of non-conductivity to heat,

I and permeability to moisture ; and,

p 3. The evaporation of the moisture at the fabric's outer surface.

^ This evaporation disperses the heat, thus lowering the temperature. This

I is the reason why the soldier keeps his woolen-covered canteen wet in hot

I weather. On this principle, the Central American makes his porous, clay

I jar, through which the water percolates, and by surface evaporation keeps

I the water inside from 10° to 15" colder than the outside atmosphere. And
I thus it is that a wet, woolen garment disposes of the surplus heat, which
I causes excessive perspiration, and leaves the body cool ; while a wet

^ linen garment leaves the body cold, thus suddenly closing the "pores,"

I stopping the exudations, and turning them back to overtask some other
excretory organ, or to sow the seeds of disease in the human system.

Is it necessary, or important, that all the clothing next to the skin,


I
should be woolen ? If all the skin were coated with varnish or plaster of
I

I Paris, death would ensue in a few hours, from the total suppression of the

I cuticular excretions. Can any one doubt, that a partial suppression would
'
I work proportional mischief.?

I
DYES. The great prevalence of the practice of adulterating woolen fabrics

I with cotton, and the free use of injurious dyes, make this a most import- |

I ant consideration. To healthy persons, the timely adoption of Dr. Jaeger's |

I Sanatory Woolen Clothing, will prove an excellent defence against bodily |

It may be well to declare explicitly that the Sanatory Clothing and


I |

I but that their sanatory efficacy is due to special modes of construction, and to
|

I Woolen fabrics woven according to Dr. Jaeger's process — the garments |

^ constructed after his methods — do not deplete and weaken, but harden, |

I toughen and invigorate ; they do not irritate the skin, but soothe and com- |

I fort; they are not "hot" in warm weather, but cool in summer and warm |
I in winter : the underwear is not coarse, rough nor cumbrous, but fine,
|

I smooth and "soft as silk"; the outer clothing is not uncomely, nor unbe- |
I coming, but are as attractive and stylish as any woolen fabrics ever |

I produced,andadmirably suited to dress occasions; none of these garments |


I are sticky, gummy, nor retentive of offensive orders, but are more cleanly,
|

f both for clothing and bedding, than any other material ever used for such |

I purposes. |

In a word, the whole tendency of the Sanitary Woolen System is to

"THE FRAUD DETECTED."


1
I
SANATORY WOOLENS VERSUS FRADULENT IMITATIONS.
^ "Whenever there is put upon the market a new commodity which proves to be better
•^ than anything in the same line preceding it, and which wins its way to popular favor, it
/ is pretty sure to have, soon, to compete with imitations. In no instance has this fact been

^
more strikingly illustrated than in the case of the sanatory woolens of the Jaeger System.
'/.
The imitations are so numerous, that it may be said, their name is legion. Goods offered
!? as all-wool, 'Jaeger' underwear, stamped with the word 'Normal' the property of —
I —
the Jaeger System and purporting to come from Stuttgart, the source of the genuine
'^>
Jaeger importations— with other devices calculated to deceive, can be found in almost
^ every city in the United States. One of these has been sent to the Jaeger Sanitary Woolen
p System Company, at 827 and 829 Broadway, for analysis the only way in which the —
^ fraud can be detected, since the ultimate fibres of the wool and cotton are combined in
^ the same thread. This analysis is done chemically and by the microscope. Under a
^ glass of from 300 to 500-diameter power, the Jaeger wool filaments are clearly seen to
^ be all alike in all general characteristics. They are shown to be tubular, and cylindrical
^ in form, and to be marked with wavy, transverse lines, denoting the imbricated scales,

^ upon which the property of felting depends. On the other hand, the cotton fibre is tape-
like, resembling a flattened tube, devoid of the cross lines, and generally somewhat
^
^ twisted, like an auger. A tuft taken from the spurious article, so closely resembling the
^ genuine that none but the most skilled expert would even suspect j;nything wrong, shows,
^
under the glass, the woolen and cotton fibres interlaced, in the proportion of about 33^
^ percent, of the latter.
^ "But the chemical test is by far the more striking. A remnant of the Jaeger fabric,
I thrown into a strong, hot solution of caustic soda, wholly disappears in a few seconds,
I leaving only a brownish liquid behind— the discoloration being due to the decomposition
I of the dark-hued wool, which, when mixed with the white, gives the 'natural-gray' color.
^ "The almost pure gelatine, of which the woolen fiber is composed, is rapidly dis-
^ solved in the caustic solution, while upon the cotton fiber, the solution has no appreciable
^ effect. So, when a clipping from the imitation garment is immersed in the solution, the

^ woolen component at once disappears, leaving a patch of well-woven, cotton network


I behind, looking very much like a piece of fine mosquito-bar. [*]

DIRECTIONS FOR WASHING.
The clothes should be placed to soak in water

(at about 100"^ Fahr. — as hot as can be borne


by the hand) in which soap has been boiled.
To about every six gallons of water (or
sufficient for washing six large garments and
several smaller articles) add three tablespoon-
fuls of liquid ammonia, which removes grease
deposited by perspiration.

Any
good soap may be used, but Ammonia Soap,
which combines ammonia in the proper propor-
tion, is recommended.
It is supplied by the Com-

pany 50c. per 2-lb. tin can. The proportion


at
to be used is ^/4 lb. to 6 gallons of -water.
Cover the clothes well, as the retained heat assists the removal of
grease.

After an hour's soaking, wash out, by drawing through the hand.


Avoid rubbing. Very dirty spots should be brushed with a soft brush.

To thoroughly remove the soap, rinse out twice in lukewarm water.


The use of a wringer is recommended, as it expels the water with the
least friction.

Hang the clothes up lengthways to dry.

Iron ivhile still damp, stretching the article to the necessary length and
width. The iron should not be unnecessarily hot.

No soda or lye should be used.


The odor of the ammonia disappears when the soap has been removed.

Note. —Experience has shown that the shrinking of Woolen


Clothing is influenced by the nature of the perspiration given off
by the wearer ; especially when the clothing is first adopted, and
its salutary effect causes the skin to expel the excretions previously
repressed and retained.

Patent Universal Abdominal Belt.


(teufel's patent.)
These Belts, made of the Finest Wool, are especially recommended as in accordance
with Dr. Jaeger's Sanitary Woolen System.
(SUPPORT WITHOUT PRESSURE.)
For Pregnancy, Corpulence, and all Abdominal Complaints.
Of the multitude of Belts hitherto devised, none has succeeded in satisfying the
requirements of medical men or their patients. Owing to defective shapes, and other
faults, the ordinary Belts fit badly, draw together, and work up, doing more harm than
good, and completely failing of their purpose.
As the result of many years' experience, the patentee brought out, in 1869, an
Abdominal Belt, which, for its original and excellent construction, was recognized as
the best and most practical of its kind then existing. The patentee, however, has
since that time striven to improve the Belt in directions suggested by the medical
profession and by numerous patients.

The Universal Abdominal Belt is now offered as the perfected result of so


much thought and labor. In its different forms, it will be found to apply to every
phase of the conditions cited in the above heading. The peculiar advantages of its pat-
ented construction are, that it lifts and supports from below, ivithoiit pressure, and
may be extended or taken in at pleasure, and never gets out of place when properly
put on As it is very important that the Belt be put on correctly, careful attention
is requested to the mstructions enclosed m the box in which each Belt is packed.

A separate Illustrated Catalogue, showing the different forms of the Belt, with
explanations of their uses, and indicating how the measurement should be taken,
will be forwarded upon application. (In all lengths, from 28 to 42 inches.) Price, $8.

BEDDING. I
I

^ In summer, the woolen covering permits, tthe body to evaporate its |

^ surplus moisture, which linen bedding would retain; while in winter, |


I
when the body has no surplus heat, the non-her.t-conducting prop- |
^ erties of wool render it greatly superior to the chilly nature of linen. |

I Moreover, damp wool will not chill, while damp linen or cotton sheets I
y \
I are a constant source of discomfort and dan£:er. •

P A correspondent of The London Times, (Oct. 6, 1885,) who has |

I
adopted Dr. Jaeger's Sanitary Woolen System, writes |
I "At night, in the winter months, my bed warms me, instead of ^

I

CAMEL-HAIR BLANKETS AND LAP ROBES. ^
I
g The Blankets and Lap Robes are made of the finest quality of |

I Dr. Jaeger states :


|
/ ^
I
"The advantages of the natural-brown coverlets, consists in their |

I
freedom from all artificial dye; this I personally guarantee. They |
I therefore attract less dirt and evil odors, and secure a more undis- I

I turbed sleep." |

I "The Blankets and Pillows of camel-hair wool retain the peculiar |

I
( long known in the East ) for soothing the nerves ; consequendy the |
sleep which these articles induce is still more quiet and refreshing than |
I

I in the case of the coverlets of sheep's wool. Camel-hair Wool Blankets |


are especially to be recommended to nervous persons and sufferers ^
from sleeplessness. |

I These Blankets and Lap

I Sanatory Woolen Outer-Clothing |

FOR MEN.
No one, on reflection, will dispute that outer-clothing is ordinarily constructed with- ^
out any reference to Sanitary principles. It fails to afford adequate protection to the ^
body against chills, because it admits draughts of cold air up the coat sleeves and trouser ^
legs, under the arm pits and in at the bosom. A crowning absurdity is the practice of |
cutting away the outer-clothing over the delicate organs of the chest, which are left to be S
protected only by the shirt front. Again, in hot weather, ordinary outer-clothing becomes S
hot and uncomfortable to a point at which relief can only be obtained by its removal. S
This is due to the imperviousness (to water or vapor) of the material — especially of
|
the lining, padding, backing of waist-coat, etc. — confining the heat and exhalations from
^
the skin. ^
I
Dr. Jaeger's Sanatory Woolen Outer-Clothing is constructed, as will be seen below, s
to obviate these serious evils, and those who adopt it may, in addition to its beneficial
|
effects upon the health, count upon an immense addition of personal comfort at all seasons,
^
whether hot or cold, and may rely upon adequate protection to the body against changes §
of temperature, however sudden and severe. g
The material consists, throughout, of pure animal wool, sanitarily dyed or of the nat- ^
ural color, and offers as little impediment as possible to the passage of the exhalations ^
from the skin.
|
"As exhaled vapors move in a straight direction, they are impeded by accumulation |
of web over web, the fibers of the upper layer obstructing the pores of the lower. The |
ordinary waistcoat, between coat and shirt, and padding in the coat, may therefore be
|
dispensed with. |
" The clothing fits so closely that the air between it and the body cannot move in
|
an ascending direction, thereby producing a draught of cold air from underneath. This |
close fit is obtained by the employment of as elastic a web as possible — "the stockinet" |
both for over and under-clothing. The coat buttons compactly to the figure, _and is well |
closed at the throat, so AS to maintain uniform warmth over the whole body. |
" Those to whom this may seem irksome, will find it so only at the very first. Every |
soldier will bear witness to the comfort of the buttoned-up coat." |
"A double thickness of material from the throat to the abdomen gives additional
|
warmth along the middle line of the trunk, to which the blood-vessels converge; these
|
are thereby expanded and the skin exhales more freely and rapidly. The sleeves of the ^
coat are lined with woolen material, and these, as well as the trousers may be closed ^
against upward draughts of air by webbing sewn in, fitting around the arms and legs— ^
MAINTAINING AN EQUAL TEMPERATURE and preventing the possibility of local chills." |

BOOHND-SHOE DEPARTMENT.
The Dr. Jaeger Sanatory Boots and Shoes are all constructed
of the best materials and after the latest and most-approved styles worn in the
United States. In shape, beauty, perfection of fit, agreeableness and health-
fulness, these articles of the Jaeger System are not only not surpassed,
but demonstrably unequaled by anything in the line oftered to the public.
They are all made upon strictly sanitary prificiples, Avithout sacrifice of
symmetry and without unense to good taste.
The leather and other materials are especially prepared with a view
to durability, lightness, warmth, and the free transpiration of moisture,
and the consequent freshness of the air within the Shoes conditions —
indispensable to a healthy state of the feei, without which perfect
general health is impossible. The foot nowhere comes in con-
.„...
__^
tact with the leather, but is

completely enveloped in a
. * ^ ^ o ; fine woolen or camel-hair
fabric of the Jaeger manu-
facture, with which the
Shoes are lined. A soft

Wooleis-FelT Sole is interposed between the bottom of the foot

and a freely-perforated felt insole, which, in its turn, is underlaid with an-
other felt sole, resting, at the arch of the instep, upon a light steel spring, to

augment the "pumping" action of the system in walking; to all of which


air isadmitted through a small channel, opening externally and posteriorly
in the lower part of the heel, and thus, by the action of the foot in walking,
ensuring a ventilation of the shoe and foot attainable in no other way.
It is by reason of this construction and combination of materials in

connection with the pure, woolen sanatory socks, and stockings, that the
Jaeger Boots and Shoes are so highly sanatory, being both curative
and preventive of the various disorders to which the feet are subject.

Weak feet are hardened by the unimpeded evaporation set up; the joints
are strengthened corns, and
;
other troubles from undue pressure, are
prevented.

"The first wealth is health." Emerson. §
" But you I
are to consider throughout, at present, and what
much more than is done |
it would have been a very great thing for me if I had been able to consider, that health
|
is a thing to be attended to continually; that you are to regard that as the very highest of
^
all temporal things for you. There is no kind of achievement you could make in the ^
world that is equal to good health," Carlyle. |
I
It is not a little remarkable that, nearly a hundred years before Dr, |
Jaeger electrified the world by the announcement of his Sanitary Woolen |
System, all or nearly all its leading features had been promulgated by one |
of the most-distinguished scientific explorers the world has ever pro- |
duced — Count
Rumford. |
Recognizing, on hygienic principles, the importance of clothing, he
|
prosecuted a series of the most elaborate experiments to determine the |
relative values of the materials in use for that purpose — especially wool, |
linen and cotton. We have space for only some of the results of these |
extraordinary experiments. |
After showing that the absorptive capacities of sheep's wool and cotton, |
for water in its "elastic state," (the condition of the "insensible per- |
spiration,") are relatively as 11 63 to 1089, he goes on to say: |
"Woolen clothes greatly promote insensible perspiration, owing to the strong at- ^
traction which subsists between wool and watery vapor which is continually issuing from ^
the human body. It (the insensible perspiration) is evidently not due to the warmih
|
of the covering, for the same degree of warmth produced by more clothing of a different |
kind, does not produce the same effect. |
" The perspiration of the human body, being absorbed by a thick covering of flannel,
|
it is immediately distributed through the whole thickness of the substance, and by that
^
means' exposed by a very large surface to be carried ofit' by the atmosphere and the loss ;
^
of this watery vapor, which the fiannel sustains on the one side, by evaporation, being ^
immediately restored from the other, in consequence of the strong attraction between the ^
flannel, and this vapor, the pores of the skin are disencumbered, and they are continually
|
surrounded by a dry, warm, and salubrious atmosphere. ^
"I am astonished that the custom of wearing flannel next the skin should not have ^
prevailed more universally. I am confident it would have prevented a multitude of
|
diseases; and I know of no greater luxury than the comfortable sensation which arises ^
from wearing it, especially after one is a little accustomed to it. ^
" It is a mistaken notion that it is too warm a clothing for summer. I have worn it
^
in the hotest climates, and in all seasons of the year, and never found the least incon- §
venience from it. It is the warm bath of a perspiration, confined by the linen shirt, wet
^
with sweat, which renders the summer heats of the tropical climates so insupportable but ;
^
flannel promotes perspiration, and favors its evaporation ; and evaporation, as is well
^
known, produces positive cold. ,
^
"I shall be hajipy, however, if what I have said or done upon the subject should ^
induce others to make a trial of what I have so long experienced, with the greatest ^
advantage, and which, I am confident, they will find to contribute greatly to health, and, s
consequently, to all the other comforts and enjoyments of life.
^
"/ shall thi-n think these expi'riments, trifling as they may appear, by far the %
most important ones I have ever made.
'

^
See Count Rumford s works, vol. I, pp. 233-236. s
S:

p "To KEEP WELL IN SUMMER, the clothing should be light, and that worn next the |
^ body should be of some material capable of readily absorbing the perspiration. Wool is ^
p probably to be preferred, and it should be pure —
that is, unmixed with cotton."
