il be in the head or feet, in the brain or rneanes
member, whether il be an outward ulcer or an
inward abscess, are all, though arising from many
causes, reducible to this grand effect, namely,
impurity Of the blood For on the healthy or un-
healthy condition Of The Stomach and Eon els en-
trey depends the pure or impure state Of the
blood. and consequently tho healthy or unhealthy
state Of the body.
1t hath been clearly proved in former advertise
n,snts that the stomach and bowels are the sovcr-
eigns Of the body, and that by them life or death
is propelled to its remotest extremtes, the head
with lis master organ, the brain, being in wise
more distinguished than the foot in this particular.
How can we then deny the great and leading

boasted reasoning faculty, prompts the horse 10
eat thorns, thistles, sc. &c. for the purpose OF
purgaton. In like manner, the dog, the cat, and
all our domestic animals, whose habits can be
noticed, wander through the fields when costive,
making selections Of those herbs which are suila-
bic TO open their bow els and purify their fluids.
DO we not observe that the feathered tribe, whose
ston lachs act by mechanical force alone, without
the solvent fluid Of the gastric juice, require the
swallowing and retaining Of stony particles in pro-
portion to their bulk, 10 promote digestion and
produce healthy tone in their fluids, by evacla-
