The biggy of the late 1800's. Clearly shows the massive inroads in medical science and the treatment of disease.

ALCOHOL AND THE HUMAN BODY In fact alcohol was known to be a poison, and considered quite dangerous. Something modern medicine now agrees with. This was known circa 1907. A very impressive scientific book on the subject.

DISEASES OF THE SKIN is a massive book on skin diseases from 1914. Don't be feint hearted though, it's loaded with photos that I found disturbing.

Excessive Sensitiveness of the Vulva.

Excessive Sensitiveness of the Vulva. This is an affection sometimes associated with pruritus, but often occurring alone. As a result of this condition, even gentle contact with the surface causes extreme pain, and may even be followed by convulsions. This condition is often observed in hysterical women, or may occur without such accompaniment at the change of life. It is usually brought to the notice of the physician when it occurs as an obstacle in the consummation of marriage. In a considerable number of cases improvement of the general health and avoidance of those causes which have been mentioned as predisposing to hysteria will usually be followed by relief from this annoyance.

In some instances, on the other hand, nothing but surgical interference has been found effectual.

In a certain class of these cases contact of a foreign body with the part causes not only the sensation of pain but also a spasmodic contraction of certain muscles, whereby the orifice of the vagina is partly closed. In the majority of these instances sexual intercourse is simply impossible, and sterility usually occurs, as was the case with thirty-two of thirty-four instances recently observed by Scanzoni.

Treatment.-This whole subject may be well summed up in the remark of Dr. Sims: "From personal experience, I can confidently assert that I know of no disease capable of producing so much unhappiness to both parties to the marriage contract, and I am happy to state that I know of no serious trouble that can be so easily, so safely and so certainly cured. " The necessary treatment consists simply in overcoming the muscular resistance by the fingers while the patient is under the influence of ether or chloroform. Yet, though the remedy is so simple and so safe, it is a curious fact that some married women have' suffered from this annoyance for twenty and even thirty years ; have, indeed, been for such periods wives in name only.
