cause, it be disabled in the performance of its d-
tses, it is evident that the elements of the bile
must remain in the BLOOD thus irritating, poison
ing, and perverting, every vital process. Nature
attempts to rid the system of these noxious ma
teIials by means of other organs, as the kidneys,
lungs, skin, ETC., which become overtayed in per
olming their additional labor, and unable to with
stand the pressure.

of all vitality, becomes oyerstimulatcd with un-
healthy blood, and fails to normally perform its
functions. Hence there is dizziness, headache, i'm
pairment of the memory. dizziness, gloomy fore
bodings and iuitability of temper. When the
blood is diseased, the skin manlfests discolored
spots, pimples, blotches, boiis, carbunces, and
scrofulous tumors. The stomach and bowels,
sooner or later, become affected and constipation
