Do not produce sickness at the stomach, nausea
or gripping. On the contrary, they are so mild and
agreeable in their action that q person suffering
with sick headache, sour stomach, or pain IN the
bowels, lie speedily relieved of these distressing
symptoms. They act directly on the liver, the
organ which, when In q healthy condition, purifes
the blood of the whole body.
They are perfect preparation of that great and
well-known remedy, Mandrake or Podophyllin, q
remedy that oas displaced the use OF mercury, as
well many other poisonous drugs, in the practice
OF every intelligent physician.
Prof. John King, of the College of Medicine, of
eineiRnati, says: 'In Constipation it acts upon
the bowels without disposing them to subsequent
eostivensss. In @hronic liver Complaint there IL
not Its equal In the whole range Of medicines, being
vastly more useful than mercuria agents, aronsing
the liver to healthy action, increasing the flow
of bile, and keeping mp these actions longer than
any other agent with which we are acquainted."-
