Liver Complaint.

Liver Complaint.
 By R. v. PIERCE, M. D., of the WORLDS DIsPENsARY, Buffalo, N. Y.:
 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, however remains to poison the b1ood and De conveyed to every | part of the system. What must be the condi- tion of the blood when it is receiving and re- talnlng each day two and half pounds of l poison Nature tries to work off this poison through other channels and organs-the kid neys, lnngs, skin, ets., but these organs be- dition to their natural functions, and cannot long withstand the pressure, and become variously diseased. fNl--
 The brain, which is the great electrical the unhealthy ,bloed which passes to it from the heart, and it fails to perform it's office healthfully. Hence the symptoms of bile | poisoning.
 | SYMPTOMS OF LIVER COMPLAINT, AND OF SOME OF THE DISEASES PRODUCED BY IT, sallow or yellow color of the skin, or vel | lowish-brown spots on the face and other parts; dullness and drowsiness, with frequent headache dizziness, bitter or bad taste in the mouth, dryness of the throat, and internal heat; palpitation of the heart in many cases n dry teasing cough, with sore throat unsteady appetite, sour stomach, with a raising of the food and choking sensation in the throat, sickness and vomiting, distress, heavinoss, or & | bloated and full feeling about the stomach and sides, which is often attended with pain and tenderness aggravated pains in the sides. back or breast, and about the shoulders colic pain and soreness through the bowels, with heat constipation of the bowels, alternating with frequent attacks of diarrhma; piles. | 1iatulence, nervousness, coldness of the ex- tremties; rush of blood to the head, with symptoms of apoplexy; numbness of the limbs, especially at night ; cold chills, alterna- ting with hot flashes, with dullness, low spirits. unsociabllity, and gloomy forebodings The blood itself being diseased, as it forms the sweat upon the surface of the skin is so irritating and poisonous that it produces dis coiored brown spots, pimples, blotches, and other eruptions, sores, boils, carbuncles, and scrofulous tumors. OAly 8 few of the above symptoms will be likely to be present in any case at one time.
 RATIONAL AND SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT
 A large variety of diseased conditions are produced by liver complaint. By curing the disease of the liver we remove the cause and thereby radically cure, not only the liver com plaint, but also the various other diseased conditions produced by it.
 It is generally the custom to take strong liver stlmulants for the liver complaint, and both the mineral and vegetable kingdom have been diligently searched to procure the most drastic and poisonous purgatives, in order to produce 8 powerful effect upon the liver. and rouse the tagging and enfeebled organ. These medlclnes arc given freely in large doses, which keep the liver in an excited condition while under their influence. The system of treatment is on the same principle as that of glvlng 8 weak and debilitated man large po- | t1ons of brandy to enable him to do 8 certain amount of work. Every intelligent person can readily see or imagine, the condition the man would be In when the work was done and the brandy withheld and it is just so with the liver When the stimulent is withheld, the organ rapidly relapses into a more torpid or sluggish and weakened condition than before What, then, is wanted? Evidently medicines that, while they arouse the liver to action, will do 1t, not by an irritating and stimulating erect, as IS produced by dose of great, repul- slve, slckenipg, drastic pills, calomel blue mass, mandrake or podophyllin, but by a tonic Invlgorating and strengthening influence upon that organ. Medicines are wanted that while they cause the bile to flow freely from the liver, as that organ is toned into action, will, when their use is discontinued leave the liver strengthened and healthy. Such medicines I am happy to have been able to discover and introduce to the afflicted for their relief and cure. AS remedy for all the various mani festatlons of disease resulting from ' Liver Complaint" as it is usually termed and as blood purifier, pr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery IS positively unequaled. By it the liver and stomach are changed to an active healthy state. the appetite regulated and re- stored, the blood and secretions thoroughly purified and enriched, and the whole system renovated and built up anew.
 Its action is mild, yet positiue and Lqstino It does not simply pillidte the disease, and re- lleve 1t, for the time being, but it produces radical and lasting beneft.
 There are, however, some peculiar constitu- tions on which the Discovery will not prove sufficiently laxitive to unclog the bowels, and instead of taking it in larger doses than two teaspoonfuls four times day. if that quantity does not move the bowels twice in twenty-four hours, take one to three of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets each day, or just sufficient to produce the desired relaxion, which should fall short of cathartic effect In fact. tho combined use of the Pellets and the Discovery from tue first, in the mild doses which recommend, will be found most effec- tive in arousing the secretion of the liver, and subduing congestion or inflammation of that organ. Do not use any other laxative or cathartic with the Discovery, as none other is so well calculated to work in harmony with and assist the Discovery in it's congenial operation Other catharics will frequently counteract and interfere with. or neutralize the power and good effects of the Discovery they shouId not, therefore, be used. These little Purgatiye Pellets, or Sugar-Coated, Root and Herbal Juice, Anti-Bilious Granules. on the other hand, are so compounded as to harmonize with and assist the Discovery.
 Discovery and Pellets are sold by druggists the world over.
 CURE OF LIVER DISEASE.
 RUsK, Tex, May 10, 1S73
 DR. R. V. PIERCE.-Dear Str: My wife last year at this time was confined to her bed with Chronic Liver Disease. I had one of the best doctors to see her, and he gave her up to die, when I came upon some of your medicines I bought one bottle and commenced using it. She then weighed 82 pounds, now she weighs 140 pounds, and is robust and hearty. She has taken eight bottles in all, so you see am an advocate of your medicines.
