Cause and Effect.

WHAT'S the average weight of the human bodv .
One hundred and fity pounds.
What proportion do the solids bear to the fluids
AS one TO four, or thrty pounds orihat forme
10 one hundred and twenty pounds Of the latter
Are the solids formed fIom, and by, thee fluid.
Yes: The great iginatol of life is he circulas
rg fluid, by which every part of the system pull;
up, Iourisbed and sustained.
oes ths he.lthfullDess Of The solids depend
| on re ne7ltn,u'ness Of the fluids!
Ceria'r'v. In the same manner that the quali-
| ~ OF building depends on The quality OF Inc
materials of which i; is built.
What cause tends to produce disease in the
| 1uids?
These are Of two kinds: predisposing and
Immediately.
ExDain.
| Tee prodisposipgcauses are improper food, and
air, too little or too much eacrc;:e, mental
| ETY., and last, though not least, Gas being more
prevalent han any other cause in the Weste-n
States.) ab1o ping celeteeous gases, the produc
| o dc wing vegetation. These prcdisposing caus-
es f1uce torpidiiy the excieiory organs, which
last is the Immediate cause OF all our complaints
Please to illustrate.
This crcu .atlng fluid lamifes to every part OF
the system; it pene.rates the bones, it siculates
the nerves, it perVades the brain,--In fact
every fibre OF every muscle, ligament and tendon
ION the sole of the foot TO The crown ofthe head,
is constantly surrounded by the sanguine fluid;
hence when a worn out atom loses lis affinity Tor
fibres 20 which il formerly belonged, il Is car
| tied eff by the blood, and lis place supplied by
new atom from the same hIid 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, tnro' which
| its decayed PARIS are evacua:et; the principle OF
| these are the skin, the Kidneys, nd the bowels.
| oil he of he
emunctories, for all though iidiscnaIges itself in
10 the bowels, yet, as ihe secretion which it sep
| arates from The blood is evidently composed oil
| worn out atoms, and disease issue to follow the
| shutting up ofits outlet, tits certainly an inter
| nal emunctory.
illustrate, If you please, the more Immediate
| cause Of disease?
| When the above mentioned outlets are obstruci-
| ed, the decayed and WON out atoms Of metter,in
stead of being evacuated, are thrown by the blood
| on some of the tElorg" reproducing in his man
ner every variety of human malady.
What organ is most liable TO arrangement in
| the western States?
| the Liver. 1t is the peculiar business of the
liver TO separate rom the blood substance cal
led gall or bile. This is undoubtedly an impurity
self, although in the economy of nature it is
| made to subserve :he evacaiion of other impuri-
ties, by stimulating the bowels tn discharge their
| fecueut contents. A reservoir Tor the deposition
of bilious matieri is provided in the gall-bladder
| from which il should he regularly discharged bu
| when MOI dischaT setl its contents became acro
| and poisonous. This slate OF the bile is the I'M
MEDIATE cause OF all our western diseases.
| Is there no method of obvialng this state OF
| things!
Frequent purgations, with vegetable medicines
| is the only remedy.
Ii is a matter ofindi ference what kind ofmed
| icine we use, provided they nre vegetable?
By no means; nature has provided medicines
in every country suitable for the cure of such
disease as are ciden; TO that Country.
What popular remedy is best fitted to nee.
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 cure of western diseases.
Will these pills cure all diseases?
Purgation. with proper medicine fitted BY
natural affinity to our constitutional IRREGULARITIES
can lone cure any disease, and If csorte to in
| time, would cure every disease.
/ Will isolated or occasional doses of the Grea
Western Pillsremove the cause of our western
| fevers!
Occasional doses during health will proven,
the accumulation ofthe cause in the gall-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 purgng induce weakness?
| IrIe weakness in caused by morbid matte
obstructng the free circulation of the life-givins
current; the Pills, by removeing this morbid
matter, actually imparIs strength by taking away
tho CAUsEof WEAKNESS.
In what particular are these pills superior to
al Others that have ever been offered 10 the
public?
That, instead ofproducing copious watery
stools, which debiltate without corresponding
benefit, thoy carry off nothing save bile and
other impurieties.
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 thereis no
calomel in them?
By weighing dose Of the Pills. when il will be
evdentthat their whole weight of calomel would
not move the bowels at all, Furthermore The
Proprietor agrees to pay S500to any chemis,
who can prove by aualization that there is in the
pills the smallest portion of any mineral what
| ever.
