matters no longer Of any use for the purposes Of
nourishing the body that when one of these chan
nels from any cause ceases to secrcte, or does so
imperfcctlv, one or the other channels, or both
will perform double duty. For instance, when
the lower bowels do not secre:e their proportion
ate share in the form of feca matter, there is al
ways much larger flow of urine and with great
er disposition to perspiration. In cold weather.
as every one knows, the flow of urine is always
greater than in warm, and it is because the skin
! becomes slrunk and shrivelled up from the cold,
which closes the capillary vessels of the skin; and
! there are cases OH record where the mucus mem =
brane of the colon failing to secrce the fnces the
skin has been made the point of elimination to
most disgusting extent
Now from what has been said, think the read
er will discover that the fcces are as true sccre-
ton from the blood as is the saliva bile, gastric
iuicc, &c., and it should be borne in mind that
the amount of secretion of feces depends upon the
amount of blood sent to the mucus membrane Of
the lower bowels if there is but little blood sent
there, very little secretion can take place from it,
but if the patient be in good health, and possess
good supply of rich red blood, he will, about
every "a hours, have secreted some or q ounces
Of fecal matter, and this quantity being present
will excite the bowels to contract and discharge
their contents.
As GOOD. wholesome and substantial food makes
good rich blood, and plenty Of it for every Sc.
cretion in the body to carry on its functions and
as We also know that almost every coustipated
person has not only craving and ravcnous appe-
tite, but gratfcs it, the next question and the
last one is
is tie frc,x are a true secretion from the blood,
and as tie amount Of secretion depends upon the
quantity Of blood disiriJu'edto Tie mucWs membrane
cfAe colon, and as there is no lack cf appetite, or
wahholdiy Of good and substantial food, which
makes blood in abundance, why Is the paiieat almost
Jioodlcss, 0nd for this reason consiipated?
Because OF congestion Of the stomach or upper
Lowels which units those organs from taking up
the food and preparing it in proper manner for
the circulation. Hoc congestion of the stomach
and upper bowels prevents the taking up of the
food and preparing it for the circulation, shall
explain i'll my next advertisement, and which will
be for the benefit of the ladies, especially the
young ladies', who :cgard fine figure Gnl form of
any considerations Thus we see that the cause,
and the only cause of constipation Of the bowels
lies in disease of the stomach and upper bowels.
Now, instead Of constipation always occurring
in those who thin in flesh, and having but lit
tie blood inside of them, it sometimes occurs in
those Of full and plethoric habit The cause Of
the constipation III these cases is not he want of
good blood in the system, but from its unequal
distribution through the body-some organs are
overloaded and gorgcd with blood, which of course
takes it from other organs and leaves them almost
in q bloodess stnte. When constipation occurs
in those ofa full and piethorc habit, it is from
congestion of the stomach. The stomach has m
undue quantity of blood shnt to it, and for which
reason the mrcus membrane of the colon is left in
the same bloodless state as though there was
want of blood through the entire system.

discover that the exhibition of purgatves or even
laxative medicines in constipation, is most absurd
and entirely useless; nor is this al, for their ex-
hibtion is positively injurious, and very much so
for by their exhibition n premature discharge
from the bowels is caused, and forced secretion
Of the blood, which must to n certainty, still far
ther reduce an already weakened md lebilitated
system. We readily cau see that there is not
particle Of blood to spare yet the exhibition of
purgativcs not only send the blood to the lower
bowels, and, By so doing, dra~s Il array from the
more vital organs, organs of nutrition and which
must have all the blood there is for the purposes
Of nutrition or nourishing the system; and it not
only does this but after forcing il to Tie bowels,
the blood is causel to secrete more or less Of mu
Gus or fecal matter, and by so doing, is still far
ther impoverished and by this loss from the blood,
the organs Of nutrition are deprived still more Of
the SYSTEM from the lack Of the material BY which
it is nourshed becomes still farther reduced and
dehiltated Now, from this premature discharge
from the bowcls-from this still farther taking
from, reducing and impovcrishing the blood
and thereby causing q !liminutinn of nutrition,
We can readily sec why the constipation is still
more obstinate after such premature discharge,
caused by purgativc medicines; (for it is the cx-
pcricnce Of every one that after taking pursativc
medicines, they are not only no better off, but
the constipation is even still more obstinate lit
| is because the blood which is the parent of this
and all other secretions, has been still farther
| impoverished, exhausted and reduced by the dis
Charge than it was previous to it, and which was
50 nuch reduced then that Sccreun Of fecal mat
ter was very small in quantity, so small that sew
erul days perhaps would clapsc before the re1ui-
site quantity, viz: ) or ounces would be present
to excite contraction of the bowels anL expulsion
| Of their contents.
And now III conclusion, We find that the whole
trouble lies not in the lower bowels, but in the
dycSirc organs, and 70 effect cure of this for
milablc malady, well directed treatment to
these organs alone, must be rcsorted to- and reul-
edial agents selected and made use of with the
greatest care and caution. As remedy for this
disease, unhesitatingly recommend the remedy
known as BLISS DYSpEpTIC REMEDY. 1t is
Il sovereign remedy in this affection and will not
! fail Of affecting cure if directions are complied
with 1t will not cure at once it would be fool
Sh to expect it, or of any other medical prcpara-
! ton; the system must have time to recruit its
worn ont and exhausted powers. This remedy
will enable the stomach to prepare The food for
the circulation, from which good healthy and rich
red blood will be made, and by which latter the
function of nutrition will be carried on, and
through which function the enfecbled system will
become buoyed up an strcngthcd, and the Sccre-
tions Of saliva, gastric juice, bile, urine and of
fecal matter from the lower bowels will take place
in good and sufficient quantities
| Ii you commence with the remedy, DO so with
the determination to follow it up and act closely
up to all directions, or not take it at all If you
do take it, and follow out all the directions, you
may rest assured it vii. cure, care not of how
long duration Or standing, or how obstinate it has
heretofore proved, it will not fail if taken prop
erly. ". W. BLISS,

Since writing the above, have received let
ter from 4 gentleman in McAlimn county, Tenn,
consulting ne as regards his disease, Constipation
of the Bowels, and among other thng4, says he
has keen, raycnOus appetite, which lie can scarce
satisfy, although lie eats lnrgc quantities; and he
also states that ''hc had not had passage from
the bowels for four weeks" Now, it strikes me,
that if the old doctrine Of the feccs be true as
laiI down in the hooks, the old gentleman must,
about now begin to weigh right smart
