Are the solids formed fiom, and by, the fluids.
Yes: The great originator Of life is he circula-
ing fluid, by which every part of the system up,
nourisLed and sustained.
Does ths heal:hfullness of the solids depend
on the healthfulness Of the fudsl
Certainly. In the same manner that the ouali-
ty of building depends on the quantity Of the
materials Of which il is built.
What cause tends 10 produce disease in the
fluids?
These ara of two kinds: predispositing and
Immediately.
Explain.
The prcdispnsingc are Improper food, and
air, too lille or too much exercise mental Gnrl-
ETY., and last, though not least, Gas being more
prevalent than any other cause in the Western
States.) absorbing deleterious gases, the product
Of decaying vegetation. These predisposing caus,
es induce torpidty OF the excretory organs, which
last is the immediate cause of all our complaints
Please TO illustrate.
This circu a,ing fluid lamifes to every part Of
the system; it pehetrates the bones, it siculates
the nerves. it peivades the brain,--In TACT,
every fibre OF every muscle, ligament and tendon,
from the sole of the foot TO tie Of the head
is constantly surrounded by the sangune fluid !;
hence when n worn atom loses its affinity for
line fbres to which it formerly belonged, it IS car.
rGd eff by the blood, and its place supplied by
new atom from the same fluid. In health these
worn out particles are carried by the blood to
the severa! emunctories, and there discharged
from the body. ..
What do you mean by the emunctory?
The several outlets of the system, thro' which
its decayed parts are evacuated; the principle of
these are the skin, the kidneys, and the bowels.
The liver might we'll be considered one of the
emunctories, for all though iidsrharges itself in
10 the bowels, yet, as the secretion which it Sc p
araies from the food is evidently composed of
worn out atoms, and disease is sue TO follow the
shutting up or its outlet, it is certainly inter-
nal emunctorY. ...l
illustrate, if you please, the more immediate
cause OF disease? sd
When the above mentioned outlets are obstruci-
ed, the decayed and WON out atoms, instead of
baing evacuated, are thrown by the blood on some
ofIhe vital organs, producing in this manner svery
variety of human malady. I'D
What organ is most liable TO arrangement in
the western States? rg
The Liver. 1t is the peculiar business of the
liver to separate from the blood substance call
led gall or bile. This is undoubtedly an impurity
Itself, although in the economy Of nature it is
made To subServe the evacatIGn OF other impure
ties, by stimulating the bowels To discharge their
feculent contents. A reservoir Tor the deposition
of bilious matter is provided in the gall der,
from which it should be regularly discharged: bur
when not SO discharged its contents became acrid
and poisonous. This state OF the bieIs the I'M
MEDIATE cause OF all our western diseases
Is there no method of obviating this state of
things! ...
Frequent purgations, with vegetable medicines
is tine only remedy.
Ii is matter indifference what kind of med
icine we Use, provided they nre vegetable!
BY no means; nature has provided menicinss
in every country suitable for the cure of such
disease as are incident To that county.
What popular remedy is best fitted to meet
these indications in these western States!
The GREAT WESTERN or COMPOUND
MANDRAKE PILLS, as they are a happy
combination of western herbs. prepared expressly
for the of western diseases
Will thess pills cure all diseases?
Purgatioh. with proper medicine fitted by
natural affinity to institutional prec uarities
can lone cure any disease, and if Icsorted to in
time, would cure every disease.
Will isolated or occasional doses Of the Great
Western Pills remove the cause of our western
fevers! 81.
Occasional doses during health will prevent
the accumulation Of the cause in the gall-bladdcr
out when the accumulation is alread, effected :
they must be taken regularly every night, until
the poisonous bile is all evacuated.
Will not this steady pIrging produce weakness
TrI weakness in caused by morbid matter
ohstructng the free circulation of the Iife-giving
current; the Pills, BY removeing this murhid
matter, actually nparts strength by taking away
ths CAUsEof WEAKNESS.
IN what particular are these pills sunerior to
al others that have ever been offered 10 the
public!
That, instead Of producing copious wafery
stools. which debiitaie without corresponding
ncnsht, thoy carry off nothing save bile and
other Impurities.
How shall we ascertain this to be the truth
BY taking when indisposed twocr three doses
and examining the appearance ofthe stools.
How shall we satisfy ourselves that there is no
calOmsl in them?
By weighing dose of the Pills. when it will he
