Remember one thing more. The bile IS
som ething more than the natura pnySlc
of the bowels as has heretofore Deen
thought by eminent medical men. The
bile is mostly made up OF the waste mat

make this bile and pour 1t into the tntes-
tines daily, it remains in the blood as q
poison. 1t poisons the blood Itself, ana
