BILI0USNESS,
Ri1ious svnntonoe inua Mol

BILIOUS symptoms invariably
arise from indigestion, such as
3urred tongue, vomiting ofbile,
giddiness, sick headache, ir-
regular bowels. The liver Sc
cretes the bile and acts like q
filter or sieve, to cleanse impu-
rites Of the blood. By irregu-
larity in its action or suspen-
sions Of its functions, the bile
is liable to overflow into the
blood, causing jaundice, sallow
complexion, yellow eyes, bill
iouS diarrhga, a languid,
weary feeling and many other
distressing symptoms. Bilious
ness may be properly termed
an affection Of the liver, and
can be thoroughly cured by the
grand regulator Of the liver
and hillary organs, BURDOCK
BLOOD BITTERS. 1t acts upon the
stomach, bowels and liver,
making healthy bile and pure
blood, and opens the culVerts
and sluiceWays for the outlet
Of disease. Sold everywhere
