healthy liver secretes each day about two
and half pounds of BILE, which contains a

Ihe Dlood; When tho liver becomes torpid or
congested, 1t fails to eliminate this vast amount
OF ho4lons substance, which, therefore. re-
mains to poison tha blood, aud be conveyed to

RATIONAL AND SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT.
A large variety Of diseased conditions are
produced by liver complaint. BY curing the
alsease or the liver We remove tho cause, and
thereby, radically cure, not only the liver COM
plhint, but also the various other diseased con-
ditionH produced by 1t. ..T-7-.-- -
1t is generally the custom to take strong
,i iver shmulants for the liver complaint. and
poth the mineral and vegetable Kingdoms have
been diligently searched to procure the most
arastic and poisonous purgatives, in order to
produce powerful effect upon the liver, and
rouse tho tagging and epfeebled organ These
meaicines are given freely and in large doses,
=
while under their influence. This system of
treatment is on the Same principle as that of
giving weak and debilitated man large por-
.ions Of brandy &c cradle t:ss &c &c

can readily see, or imagine, the condition the
man would be In when the work was done and
the brandy withheld; and it ia just 30 with tho

organ rapidly relapses into moro torpid or
