Mode of Living Which Makes the Con-
sumption of Medicine Unnecessary.
I hazard nothing in pronouncing the
average "blood purifier in the general
market a fraud, an imposition, GER
tainly in the pretensions of what is
effected by the use Of such means of
purifying the blood, while this is done
so effectually by natural means, or
would be effected if we would but allow
nature to do her own work in her own
way. Fearfully and wonderfully
made" as this body man testify is, it is
well calculated to perform all necessary
functions, and would do so. aside from
various disturbing causes, acting in OPP
position to natures sanitary measures.
While this body is constantly wear
ing out, particle by particle actually
dying, to be replaced by new materials
produced by the food daily eaten. it is
absolutely necessary that adequate
means should be in as constant exer-
else, that the body may be kept pure, in
it's normal state.
Added to this natural and necessary
impurity, that caused by the decay of
minute particles, great deal Of food
is taken which is unfit for the produc-
ton of pure, new blood; much that is
actually undergoing the putrefactive
process, as the very tender meats,
actually made so by the fact that de-
composition has proceeded SO far as to
destroy part of the cohesive attrac-
ton, tho tibers easily yielding, which
is called Tenderness If more of
this is taken than can be digested, the
putrefactive process is still continued,
the remains soon becoming sufficiently
putrid to suit the taste of the whole
class of scavengers whose mission is
to devour that which would prove con-
terminating to the higher orders of Gre
alton.
These putrescent juices are taken up
by the absorbents, enter the circula-
ton, and are carried to the various
depurating organs, that they may he
elected by the most direct means. The
more active and efficient of these are
the liver and kidneys, each faithfully
performing their duties, at least till
OOUil POlSOhCu,
broken down by the excess of impuri-
ties and poison with which they are
brought in contact in their attempts to
purify the system. 1t seems to be the
more especial duty of the kidneys to
carry off the excess of the nitrates,
such as is found in flesh, the victims of
kidney troubles oftener than otherwise
being those who take an excess of
meats 1t is the more especial mission
of the liver to dispose of the carbons,
more particularly the greases and fats,
from which fact the victims of liver af-
fections are generally excessive in the
use of such articles.
The breathing of pure air is a very
important means of purifying the
blood, which process is constantly in
progress, just to the extent that the air
is pure, as it will be if unconfned.
coming in contact with the light of the
sun and the leaves of the vegetable
creation.
Again, since more than one-half of
the refuse of the body passes off
through the pores of the skin, it be-
comes very important to have these
pores open and active, which will be
promoted by cleanliness next to god
hness
Last, though not least, pure blood
can be made only from pure and whole
some food, so easy Of digestion that
none will remain to putrefy in the sys-
tem.--Dr. HaRaford, IN Goldess Rule.
