How to Treat
A Torpid Liver

The liver is the largest and most
important organ in the body, and
when the liver refuses to act, it
causes constipation, biliousness,
stomach, bad breath, dysentery,
diarrhoea, pains in back and under
shoulder blades and under ribs on
right side. These symptoms lead to
troubles unless corrected Immediate
An inactive liver places an extra
burden on the kidneys, which over
taxes them and causes the blood to
absorb and carry into the system the
impurities that the liver and kidneys
have failed to eliminate.
When you treat the liver alone,
you treat only third of your
trouble, and that is why you have to
take purgatives every few nights.
Calomel or other ordinary laxatives
do not go far enough. If you would
treat your kidneys and blood while
treating the liver you would put
your entire system in order and fire.
quent purgatives would then be UNI
necessary.

Auto Hurts Mother;
Child Dies Unborn;
} Driver Out on Bail

A woman's life was spared, but a
life that she was to give to the
world was lost, in an automobile ac-
cident at Fifth avenue and One Hun
bred and Twelfth street, New York,
recently.
Mrs. Rosa Liebowitz, forty. of No.
651 Bedford avenue, Brookly, was
crossing Fifth avenue with a friend
when a southbound automobile bore
down upon them. The friend lodged,
but Mrs. Liebowitz, less agile be-
cause of her approaching maternity,
was knocked down and run over.
Marcus Buda, of No. 1900 Licking
ton avenue, owner and driver of the
machine, carried the woman to Beth
David hospital, Lexington avenue
and One Hundred and Thirteenth
street. There DR.. Nathan Blau-
stein examined Mrs. Liebowitz. He
found that both her legs were broken
and that she was in no danger of
death. But the event she had eX-
pected could not, because of the
crushing she suffered, come to pass,
he told her.
At first Buda, the motorist, was
charged with nomocide at the East
One Hundred and Fourth street po-
lice station. But the police, after
considerable discussion, decided that
life which had not yet begun could
not actually be terminated. SO the
charge was changed to the usual
''felonious assault" and Buda was re-
leased on bail.
