PRINCIPLE OF THE BLOOD.
READ AND UNDERSTAND.
THE PRINCIPLE OF LIFE, that subtle and
invisible principle which aDimates the human
frame, and whose seat IS in the blood, is one the
most impenelrabe secrets of the Creator. We
cannot comprehend his principle, but we know
that it is in The blood, for if we DECREASE the
amount of blood in the body, we decrease the
PRINCIPLE OF LIFE: and that, if we draw all
the blood from the body, that life ceases. So we
must believe what the Scriptures say on this sub
ject no one can doubt it, The life OF the flesh is
EMPHATICALLY in the BLOOD!-There can
be no mistake upon this subject; so we must then
be also convinced that any thing which impedes
the circulation of the blood must depress or bear
down the principle of Life, and make the body sub
iect to receive injury from the principle of corrup-
tibility also implanted in the human Frame We
cannot deny it. There is in every created being
a principle ofcorruptibiity, of as well as principle
of animation. 1t is when this corruptibility be-
comes to powerful for the LIFE PRINCIPLE or
| Blood, that disease commences II not because
| it does exist, but because it becomes ACTIVE; in
some it has taken an hundred years to develope it.
self in some it has become paramount before birth,
and the child is stl.born. The constitution ofthe
child depends upon its parents; he receives from
them the principle Of his life, and also that which
will ultimately destroy him, and when Of age, he
transmits them to his children.
J Thus we see that in the same body is the princi
pie of life and also Of compatibility. And it is
only by due attention 10 some bcdles that health
can be secured by artificial modes Of assisting the
functions Of life to throw ot the occasional accu.
mutations of compatibility which otherwise would
overpower the principle of life, before the indivi
dual had reached to the full period of his existence
according to the principle of life within him. For
in order that men should arrive at that period OF
life called old age, perfect balance must exist be-
tween The principle liie and the principle of cor.
ruptbility When the balance is in favour Of the
principle OF life, we observe the energy of charac-
ter with admiration. And have no doubt that
Just in proportion as the life principle predominates
is the energy both Of body and mind. By the use
of proper medicine this can always be secured un-
til good old age.
The principle of corruption is subject to the in
f1uence of many causes Of vitiation. /; is there.
fore, necessary that we be provided with ample
means to prevent injury from it; or in consequence
of this visitation that pdtridity would be produc-
ed which would destroy the individual ere he had
arrived at the period Of life which he would have
done from the principle of life which was in him.
Now, to accomplish this, we must prevent an accu-
mutation of those humors which bear down the
principle oflfe. DDnot wait for an attack OF sick
ness, but on the first appearance OF the enemy as
sist nature in her operations to expel him from the
body. This is the object always attained by those
who use BRANDRETH's PILLS. Thousands who

/. application; and, what is better, we know how tt
