Liver Diseases most prevail. 1t Will cure all
Diseases caused by arrangement of the
Liver and Bowels.
The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint are a bitter
or bad taste in the mouth; Pain in the Back, Sides or
Joints, often mistaken for Rheumatism; Sour
Stomach; Loss Of Appetite; Bowels alternately
costiye and lax: Headache; Loss Of Memory, with a
painful sensation of having failed to do something
which aught to have been done; Debility; Low
spirits; a thick, yellow appearance of the Skin and
Eyes; a dry Cough, often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend the
disease, at others very few; but the LIVER, the largest
organ in the body, is generally the seat Of the disease,
and if not Regulated in time, great suffering, wretch
edness and DEATH will ensue.
