Poisoned to Death.

A healthy liver secretes each day about two
and half pounds of bile, which contains a
great amount of waste material taken from the
blood. When the liver becomes torpid or con-
gested. it fails to eliminate this vast amount
of noxious substance, which, therefore remains
to poison the blood and be conveyed to every
part of the system. What must be the condi-
ton of the blood when it IS receiving and re-
