1t is quite generally the custom to take
strong liver stimulants for the cure of liver
complaint, and both the mineral and vegeta-
BILE Kingdoms have been diligently searched
to procure the most drastic and poisonous
purgatives in order to produce a powerful eff
feet upon the liver and arouse the tagging
and enfeebled organ. This system of treat
ment is on the same principle as that OF Civ
ing weak and deblitated man large por-
tions of brandy to enable him to do n certain
amount of work When the stimuant is
withheld the organ, like the system, gradual

cause the-bile to flow freely from the liver, as
that organ is toned into action, will not over
work and thus deblitate it, but will, when
their use is discontinued, leave the liver
strengthened and healthy. Such remedies
are found in DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

A NEW HAMPSHIRE school.teacher
lately was questioning one of his class
upon the anatomy of the human body,
and, standing upon one foot aud swing
ing the other foot and limb, he inquired
how many bones he was moving. Sew
eral incorrect answers were given at first,
but after it had been answered correctly
the question was asked if any Of the
scholars thought differently. A little
fellow, not yet in his teens, raised his
hand Immediately, signifying that he dis
agreed with his schoolmates, and the
teacher, repeating the question: How
many bones was moving?' was aston
ished to hear the little chap increase the
proper number by one, in the same
