DECEIvIEG RECENTLY A LETTER FROM
IL young lady in Alabama, shall take The liber

by way of text" for my advertisement ofthis week
and in doing so, it WILL know, be duly regarded and
appreciated by the ladies' especially the young ladies'

There is no country in the world that produce
greater array of pretty faces than ours and is also
that there is country where there are so few
| finely developed forms among the female as in
ours. Why is that! Why is it that the ingenuity Of

once full, round and plump, have become shrunken,
thin and bony! But to the letter:
"DEAR SIR: Were it not from conviction of your

Most certainly does the case demand treatment, and

former which is not only the in the above case,

for certainly, in many cases. there is no lack appe.
lite, or Of goud substantial and Wholesome food and
plenty ofit, which makes good blood. The reason is
simpe-for although there wanting Of appetite,
good food and in abundance yet the food is not
taken up and carried into the circulation, or Mt any
rate, but small portion ofit-and why? Because of
the congestiue state of The digestive organs. That is
the rouble-the system is in that precise state
that it would be were il in half-sarved condition.
And now, how is il that congesed state of the d.
gesive organs prevents the food from being carried
into the circulation and converted into good blood.
Those who have read my advertisement of last week
are fully acquainted, I think with the way that the
food is carried into the circulation in the form Of
chile, and converted into blood, and it now only re.
mains for 10 give the reason Uhy it is not, in the
condition under consideration, carried there and con-
verted into good blood. The mucus membrane which
lines the stomach continues on into the bowels and
lines them also; it is one continuous membrane.
have already described how in the upper bowels,
little orifces, which mouths of little vessels or
tubes whose office is to absorb or take up the food
after il is formed into chile and pass it along into
large vein, and on through this vein is the chile car
rird to the lungs, and there, by its coming in contact
with The atmosphere, is converted into blood, and
ready for purposes of nutrition nuurishing the
body From the lungs, il is (now being made into
good blood brought back to the heart again through
large veins and from the heart sent throughout the
entire system through the artifces.

and the bowels, also dips into these little mouths of the
vessels abuve spoken OF, and also lines them. And
think now it can be easily seen that when the diges
tive organs are in congestc and inamed condition,
that there is or less Of swollen stale of that
mucus membrane, and in consequence of the swollen
state of The membrane, the m nth of these resseS
from their being so very minute, would be entirely
closed mp, which would Of course prevent the taking
up of the chile and Of its being carried into the
circulation, and in consequence Of lis not being taken
up by these vessels it is passed through the bowels
and expelled, and without the system receiving any
benefit Of its nourishing properties.
II ts plain then, from the foregoing, that RENE
dial measures must be directed TO tie digestive organs
for it BY the congestion of these that this shrpnken
attenuated and bony condition is brought about.
What shall be our remedies! Thuse that will remove
the congesed stale and restore them to healthy con-
dition. In advance of all other remedial means, is
the using of BLISS DYSPEPTIC REMEDY, and
