Liver Complaint.
BY II. V. Pierce, NJ. D., of the Worlds Dis
pcnsary, Buffalo, n. Y.
A healthy liver ~secretes each day about two
and u half pounds of bile, which contains q
great amount of waste material taken from the
blood. When the liver becomes torpid or con-
gestod, it fails to eIiminate this vat amount
OF nOXiOus substance, which, therefore, re-
mains to poison the blood, and be conveyed to
every part of the system. What must be the
condit Oh Of the bl cd when it is receiving AID
retaining each day two and IA half pounds or
poison; Nature tries to work off this poison
through other channels and ~organs-the Kid
ncys, lungs, rkin, etc, but these organs be-
come overtaXcd in PEI forming this labor III
addition to their natural functions. and cannot
long Withstand tho PRESSURE, but become yari-
ously diseased.
The brain, which il the great electrical cen
tire of all vitality, il unduly stimulated by the
unhealthy blood, which passes to it from the
heart and it fails to perform its office health
fully. Hence the symptoms OF bile poisoning.
SYMPTOMS or LIVER COMPLAINT n SOME OF
THE DISEASES PRODUCED By 1T.
A sallow or yellow color of the skin, or yell
lowish-brown spots on the face and other parts;
dullness and drowsincss, with frequent head
ache, 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 UNI
steady appetite, sour stomach, with n raising
Of tho food, and a choking sensation in the
throat, sickness and vomiting, distress, heavi-
ness, or II bloated aud full feeling about the
stomach and sides, which is often attended
with pain AM tenderness; aggravating pains
in the sides, back or breast, and about the
shoulders; collie, pain, and soreness through
the bowels, with heat; constipation OF the
bowels, alternating with frequent attacks Of
diarrhma piles, flatulencc, nel yousncss, cold
ness Of tho eXtremil les; rush Of blood to the
head, with symptoms of apopleXy; numbncss
of the limbs, especially at night cold chills,
alternating with hot flashes, with dullness, low
sp, rit1, 'unsociability, and gloomy ~forebodings.
Tho blood itself being diseased, as it forms
the sweat upon the surface of the skin, it is
so irritating and poisonous that it produces
discolorod brown spots, pimples, b%lotches, and
other eruptions, sores, boiIs, carbuncles and
scroiu Gus tumors. Only Il few of the above
symptoms will be likely to be present III any
case ut one time.

1t IL generally the custom to take strong
liver stimuIants for the liver complaint, and
both the mineral and vegetable kingdoms have
been diligently searched to procure the most
drastic and poisonous purgatives, in order to

rouse the tagging and cnfeebled organ. These
medicines are given freely and in large doses,
which keep the liver in an excited condition
while under their influence. This system of
treatment IL on the same principle AZ that of
giving a weak and debilItated man large por-
tons of brandy to enable him to do II 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

by 1t the liver and stomach are changed to an
active, healthy state, the appetite regulated
and restored, the blood and secretions thor
oughly purified and enriched, and the whole
system renovated and built up anew.
Its action Is mud, yet pOSitice and idsting.
It does not simply paHiate the disease and re-
lleve 1t for the time being, but it produces
radicdl and lasting benefit.
There are, however, some peculiar c%onstitn-
lions on which the Discovery will not prove
sufficiently laxative to unclOg the bowels, and
instead OF taking 1t i'll larger doses than two
teaspoonfuls four times a day, if that auan-
tity does not move the bowels twice in twenty
four hours, take from one to three of DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets each day,
or just sufficient TO produce the desired relay
alton, which should fall short of a cathartic
effect. In fact, the combined use of the Pei
le!s and the Discovery from the first in the
mia doses which | recommend, will be found
most effective in accusing the secretion of the
liver, and subduing congestion or infamma-
ton OF that organ. Do not use any other lax
alive or cathartic with the Discovery, as none
other Is 30 we'll calculated to work in harmony
with and assist the Discovery in its congenial
operation. Other cathartics will freauently
counterfeit and interfere with, or neutralize
the power and good effects of the Discovery;
they should not therefore be used. These lit
tie Purgatlve Pellets, or Sugar-C Coated, Root
and Herbel Juice, Anti bilious Granules, on
the other hand, are 30 compounded as to har-
moniZe with and assist the Discoyery.
Discovery and Pellets are sold by druggists
the world over.
