A CHAPTER ON THE LIVER.
HOW IT GOVERNS OUR HEALTH.
IMPORTANT TO CHRISTCHURCH PEOPLE. The principal duties of the liver are to cleanse the blood and to furnish a "fluid called bile for the proper digestion of food. The duct or pipe leading from the liver to the stomach sometimes becomes clogged, and tho free passage of tho bile is thus prevented. When that happens the bile is forced back into the gall bladder which overflows, and thus it is carried into the wrong channel, this state is called "biliousness." Many and varied, are the effects of a disordered liver. The tongue is of km coated with a white or yellow matter, there is a difficulty in breathing, there is also a tightness across the chest, the sufferer is given to faintaess and sighing, pains are felt in various parts of the body, the stomach and bowels become inflamed, the face is flushed, and there is sometimes a dry cough. The appetite is irregular, and as a rule pimples, boils and itching are satellites of biliousness. Langour prevails as a rule, and in many cases there is an inability to sleep. When sleep does come it is disturbed by dreams of a frightful character. Now, notwithstanding the seriousness of chronic liver ailments Bile Beans for Biliousness will be found an undoubted specific. The Beans, by their peculiar properties, not only cause the liver to work properly, but that organ is toned to work and act for itself, so that when Bile Beans are left off the cure remains permanent.

Secondly, because they do not cure every complaint, and the proprietors let the public know just exactly what they will cure. Thirdly, unlike most medicines, they act upon the system in a gentle, yet efficient manner, and do not unfit the patient from attending to his or her routine duty. Fourthly, they are no new medicine, the beCns having stood the test of years, and their low price—l3Jd per box—puts them, within the reach of all.
