in another set OF million chambers we

often say is great living river. In its

"People strangely wait until pain strikes

pain concerns chiefly the exterior not the
interior Of the body. A certain set of
nerves connect these blood purifying
organs with the brain. They may not

scratch, but they regularly, silently report.
When these organs are failing these nerves
indicate it by drawing tue blood from the
