The Evor is the great depurating (purifying)
organ OF the system, and has very appropriateIy
been termed the 'housekeeper' OF our health
have observed in the dlssecting-room, and
also IN making poSt-nOrtem examinations Of
the bodies OF these who have died of different
diseases, that, III large proportion of Cases
the liver has given evidence of having at some
Time been diseased. Liver affections are equal
ly prevalent in beasts. Every butcher knows
that the Hyers OF cattle, sheep and swine are
ten times as frequently diseased rs any other
organ. healthy liver each day secretes
about two and one-Salf pounds of bile. When
IL becomes torpid, congested, or if, from auy
cause, 1t Is disabled in tho performance of its
duue-, II Is evident that the elements Of the
bile must remain in the blood thus irritating
poisoning and perverting every vital process
Nature attempts 10 rid the system OF these
noXlous materials by means of other organs
as the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc.. which become
overtaXed i'll performing their additional labor,
and are unable to Withstand the pressure.
Tho BRAIN, which Is the great electrical CEN
ter OF all vitality, becomes overstimulated
with unhealthy blood and fails to normally
perform Its functions. Hence there is dull
ness, headache, impairment of the memory
dizziness, gloomy forebodings, and irritability
of temper. When the blood is diseased, the
skin manifess discolored spots, pimple 8,
blotches, boils, carbuncles and scrofulous tu-
mors. The stomach and bowels, sooner or
later, become affected, and constipation, piles,
dropsy dyspepsia, or dlarrhea, is the inevitable
result.
