Cause and Effect.

WHAT'S the average weight Of the human LcdY2
One hundred and fifty pounds.
What proportion de the solids bee tfo the fluids?
AS one TO four, or thirty pounds of that forme
10 one hundred aud twenty pounds of the latter
Are the solids formed flom, and by, thee fluid.
Yes; The great originator of life Is he circulas
ing fuid,hy which every part ofthe systemis built
up.nourished and sustained.
Does tbs healthfullness of the solids depend
on the healthfulness of the fuids2
Certainly, In the same manner that the quail
ty of a building depends on the quality OF the
materials Of which il is built.
| What cause tends to produce disease in the
fluids?
These are Of two kinds: predisposing and
| Immediately.
Explain.
The prcdisposingcause are improper food, and
AIR, too little too much exercise, mental GnTt
| ETY., and last, Enough not least, Gas being more
prevalent than any other cause in the Western
States.) absorbing deleterous gases, the produc
| ofdecaying vegetation. These ptedisposing csus-
es induce torpidity ofthe excretory organs which
last is the Immediate cause Of all our complaints
Please to illustrate.
This crcu atIng fluid lamifes to every part Of
| the system; it penetrates the bones, IL sculates
| in the nerves. it pervades the brain,--in iact
| every fibre OF every muscle, ligament and tendon
flon the sole of the foot the crown cfthe head,
| is constantly surrounded by the sanguine fluid /;
| hence when worn out atom loses its affinity for
the bres to which it formerly belonged, il Is car
| ried eff by the blood, and its place supplied by
new atom from the same 1nid. In health these
worn OUT particles carried by the blood to
| the several 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 well be considered one of the
| emunctores, for all though itdischarges itselfin
TO the bowels, yet, as the secretion which it sep
| arates from the blood is evidently composed oil
worn out atoms, and disease issue to follow the
shutting up OF its outlet, tits certainly an inter
| nal emunctory.
illustrate, il you please, the more immediate
| cause OF disease!
| When the above mentioned outlets are obstruct-
ed, the decayed and WON out atoms of Ratter,i in
| stead of being evacuated, are thrown by the blood
on some of the vitalorgans, producing in his man
| ner every variety of human malady.
| What organ is most liable 10 arrangement in
/ the western States?
The Liver. 1t is thepeculiar business of the
liver to separate from the blood substance cal
led gall or bile. This is undoubtedly an impurity
| itself, although in the economy of nature il j:
| made to subserve the evacatiOn of other impuri-
ties, by stimulating the bowels discharge then
feculeut contents. A reservoir for the deposition
of bilious matter is provided in the gall-bIadd
] from which it should be regularly discharged blu
when not so discharged its contents became acric
| and poisonous. This state OF the bile IS the IN
! MEDIATE cause of all our western diseases.
| Is there no method of obviating this state o.
things!
| Frequent purgations, With vegetable medicines
| is the only remedy.
/ Ii is a matter ofindiference what kind of med
icine we use, provided they nre vegetable?
By no means; nature has provided medicine:
in every country suitable for the cure of such
| disease as are cident 10 that county.
| What popular remedy is best fitted to zee.
| these indications in these western Statess
| The GREAT WESTERN or COMPOUND
! MANDRAKE PILLS, as they are a happy
combination of western herbs, prepared expressly
| for the cure of western diseases.
| Will these pills cure all diseases?
| Purgation with a proper medicine fitted By
natural affinity to our constitutional IRREGULARITIES
can lone cure any disease, and if icsorte to in
| time, would cure every disease.
| Will isolated or occasional doses of the Grea
| Western Pillsremoye the cause of our western
! fevers!
| Occasional doses during health will proven.
the accumulation ofthe cause in the ga l-bladder
but when the accumulation is already effected /;
| they must be taken regularly every night, until
| the poisonous bile is all evacuated.
| Will not this steady purging induce we kness?
True weakness in caused by morbid matte
obstructng the free circulation OF the life-givpa
current; the Pills, by removeing this morbid
| matter, actually imparts strengthby taking away
| the cAUsEof WEAKNESS.
| In what pa rticular are these pills superior "a
| al OTHERS that have ever been offered 10 the
public?
/ That, ustead reproducing copious watery
| stools, which debiltate without corresponding
! benefit, they carry off nothing save bile and
| other impurieties.
| How shall we ascertain this TO be the truth
| BY taking when indisposed twocr three doses
| andexaminIng the appearance ofthe stools.
How shall we satisfy ourselves that there is nc
calomel in them?
| By weighing adose of The Pills. when it will be
| evidentthat their whole weight Of calomel wuuld
not move the bowels at all, Furthermore, The
Proprietor agrees to pay S500to any chemist
who can prove by analization tina there is in tho
pills the smallest portion of any mineral what.
