The symptoms of Biliousness are unhap-
pily but too well known. They differ IN
different individuals to some extent. a
Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of a
morning. His tongue will hardly bear in
spection at any time; if it is not white and
furred. it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of or
der and Diarrhea or Constipation may be
symptom or the two may alternate. There
are often Hemorrhoids or even loss OF blood.
There may be giddiness and often headache
and acidity or fatulence and tenderness IN
the pit of the stomach. To correct all this
