THEIR BELIEF CONCERNING THE
 SEAT OF LOVE AND PASSION.


 SEAT OF LOVE AND PASSION. The Liver Regarded as the Favored Organ-How Could 1t be So-Recent
 Facts Partly Confirm This Belief.
 The ancient Greeks thought the seat of love and passion was in the liver, and in great measure their opinion was not far astray. The lover whose liver is of, or the husband who is bilious, is not half a man his sluggish liver has filled his blood with bile.

Because, my friend, the liver is sluggish, lethargic organ that can- not be relieved of any ailment except by medicine which acts upon it in a quiet steady manner, producing permanent effects, and assisting not goading its normal action. member that! No other organ in the body can take their place in this respect, and they attend to over 5000 hogsheads of blood in year! Think of it and wonder that they are able to do so large an amount of worki
 A healthy kidney to purify, and healthy liver, emptying it's poison into the bowels and not into the blood, are the true and only givers of pure blood.
 The interior of the kidneys have few nerves of sensation, and stone can be, and often is present without any indication until it reaches the first outlet, which is supplied with nerves that soon sound the alarm.
