this whole matter is this; The food and the whole Of it.
is by the muscular action of the jaices the stomach
converted into soft homogeneous mass, and then is
passed along into the upper bowels called the duodenum
on the side Of which great number Of little orifces
which sre'mouths Of small vessels tubes called lac
teals whose Office is to take up this food now cae chile
and carry it along aud discharge it into large vein and
BY which it is carried to the heart; from the heart it is
forced into the lungs when by coming into contact with
the atmosphere, it is converted into good healthy red
bood and fit bnt not previously for the purpose Of
nutrition, It being made into good red blood is
brought back by large veins to the heart again. from
whence is again propelled into the large arteries aad
distributed tn every portion Of the system The blood
passing on through these arteries is received into another
set Of vessels Of the very smallest calibre called capi-
and SO numerous that the point Of all needle cannot
| enter the skin without piercing them.
NOW IN these minute vessels the great functions Of
uton and secretion are carried in other words,
the depositng Of all the solids, such the sinew muscle,
mars, &c; This nutrition, while the depositing

called secretion Every particle Of the solids and IL
guilds Of the body separated deposited from the
blood by these small vessels but bear in mind that the
deposits are male only for short time. As almo
cry one is awar there is constant change going on in
the gystem1ld solids are being broken down and taken
away and new deposited in their place. We have already
seen how matter is deposited. How old matter af

now what is done with this that is OF further for
the system? 1t is carried of the system by set of
secretng vessels made for the purpose, And howl By
three different channels viz throughhe Kidneys by the
secretion oil uTlnej through the skin, in the form Of in
sensible Precipitation; and through the lower bowels BY
the secretion Of feca matter.
Thus it will be seen that the ecal matter instead of
being the resdum of the food, is the dTlss broken
down matter, which being longer of any use to the
SYSTEM IS sent out of the system through the seceting
vessels of the mucus membrane OF the lower bowels
This is one of the channels by which the blood is rid Of
these matters, the retention of which would not only
leave no room for the admission of blood made from
chile, which is constantly being formed but would vatc
the blood, and clog the wheels of life So essential is the
eliminating OF these matters longer any for the
purposes of nourishing the body when one these
channels from any cause, secrete does 80
imperecty, one of the other channels or both will per
form double duty For instance when the lower bowels
do not secrete their proporonate share the Of
iecal matter there is always much larger flow of urine
and with agreater disposition perspiration In cold
weather. as every knows the flow of urine always
greater than IN warm and it is because the skin becomes
shrunS and shrveed up from the cold which closes the
capillary vessels of the skim and there are cases on
record, where the membrane of the colon failing
to secree the feces the skin has been made the po
elimination to a most disgusting extent
Now from what has been said, think the reader will
discover that the eces secretion from the
plood as is the saliva, bile, gastric juice &C. and it
should be borne in mind that the amount of secretion
OF feces depends upon the amount OF blood the

Now, instead of constipation always airing 10 those

OF Them II sometimes occurs la those OF full and pie
thoric habit. The Of he constipation in these
cases is not the want of good blood in the system bpt
from It's un qaGt distribution through the body-some
organs are overloaded gorged with blood which Of
course takes it from other organs and leaves them almost
In bloodess state. When constipation occurs in boss
OF full pethorc habit, is from Congestion Of me
stomach. The stomach has undue quantity of boed
sent to it, and for which reason the mucus Of
tne colon Is left IN the same boodess state as though
thsre was want Of blood through the entire system
From the above it is very hard matter to discover
that tue exhibition of purgaves even Laxative medi.
oes IN constipation is most absurd and entirely useless
nor is this all, for their exhibition is positively niurios
and very much so,for by their exhibition premature
discharge from the bowels caused ami forced sccre
ton Of the blood. which must, certainty still further
reduce an already weakened and debiated system We
readily can see that there particle Of blood to
pare yet the exhibition Of purgatYes only sends the
blood to the lower bowels and doing draws it away
from the more vital organs organs Of nutrition and
which must have all the blood for the purposes
Of nutrition, or nourshng the system; and it not only
does this but after forcing it to the bowels the blood is
caused TO secrete more loss Of matter.
and by doing is still further Impoverished and by this
loss from the blood the organs of nutrition deprived
still more Of the precious liquid for nourIhng the body
and the system, from the lack the material by which
i IS nourshed becomes still further reduced and debi-
itated. Now. from this premature discharge from the
Dowels-from this still further taking from reducing and
impoyerishing the bood-aud thereby causing dimnu-
on u nutritionwe readily why the constipation
caused by taking purgatve medicines; (of it is the exe
nence OF every one, that after taking pureatiye medi-
cines they are not only better off but the
Is even still more obstinate ) is because the blood
which is the of this all other secretons mas

by the discharge than it previous to IL and which
has so much reduced them that secretion OF feca matter
was very small in quantity, small that several davs
perhaps, would eapse beiore the requisite quantity viz
or ounces would be present TO excite Contraction az
the bowels and the expulsion OF their contents
And now, In conclusion, find that the whole trouble
