ONLY A LITTLE AT A TIME.

There are sound, objections to one's knowing too much about Lis own body . I am going to tell you wlint they are; not to day, but soon. To muko sure of themf.yqii will have watch these articles sharply in t newspapers. Yet we should kn a little ; and a fraction of that little I will serve up now. Pleaso favour me with your attention. Kight"across the middle of the body is a large, thin flat _ muscle, stretched like a canvas awning—the diaphragm. By it you are divided into two large storeys or compartments. The upper one contains the In-art and lungs, the lower one cont»ins(chitflv) the stomach, the intestines, and the liver. The most painiul (internal) diseases oc::ur down stairs, the least painful upstairs. The entire right side of the loiver conn ailment, from the lop down to the short ribs, is filled by the liver

which is suspended to a mere point of the diaphragm and shakes about with every movement you make. Now, from the location of the liver we have a word used for ages to express one of the most unhappy conditions a human being can fall into—the word htfochonsra. (often abbreviated to " hypo"), the word meaning ODTDER THE CARTRIDGES. " For seven years," writes a torresprndent, " I suffered from complaint of the liver. I was .very bilious, my skin was sallow and dry, and tho whites of my eyes yellow. I had much .pain and weight at my right side and was constantly depressed and melancholy. It seemed to be out of my power to take a hopeful or cheerful view of anything. The effect of this complaint on the mind was one of the aspects of it hardest to bear. "I had lost my natural appetite, and ate to support life; but there was no more any genuine relish for food or drink. The bad taste in my mouth made all that I took .taste bad. Sometimes I would be taken sick aud throw up all I had eaten; and after a meal, no mattar how slender and .simple. I was troubled with su'lness and pain at the chest. I med many kinds of medicines and whilo somo .o.f them may have relieved me for the moment, none conferred any lastiu"benefit, and I was soon as bad as ever.

■'•'Ill March, 1892, I read in a smalt book of what Mother SeigiFN Curative Syrup had done in cases similar to mine, and was especially interested in the .account given in the book of the nature and duties of the liver, and its disorders. I jjot a bottle of the Syrup from Boots' Drug Stores, and after taking it a few days felt quite like a new man. It scorned to correct my stomach and liver and clear my system of all bile ; and it left ME in CAEiXAfc health Since that time I have kept Mother Seigel's Syrup in. the house as a family medicine and have commended it to all my friends as the best known cure for ailments like the one from which I suffered so miserably and so long. You can use this statement as you like. (Signed) John Gent, 59, Coventry [Road, Bulwell. Nottingham. March 21st, 189,5." "Iu the spring of 1791," writes another, "I found myself in bad health, i had no appetite, and the little I did eat did me no good, gave mo no strength. I had great pain and weight at the .chest and right side, and my skin turned sallow and diy. My kidneys also acted badly, and from time to time Ihad attacks of gravel; and cold, clammy, weakening s.went* broke out all over me. Being only seventeen years old when the trouble began I was greatly alarmed and anxious. No doctor was able to help mo, and I continued thus for over three years. In June, 189-1, I began to use Mother Soigel's Syrup aud soon felt better, lighter, rnd more cheerful; And by taking it a few weeks longer I recovered my health nnd strength. Since then, when I have any stomach, liver, 01 kidney symptoms I resort to Mother Seigel'e Syrup nnd it never fails to set me right. You can publish this letter. (Htrned) C Hanson, C, New Inn Bane. Gloucester, May 81st, 1895." Tho stomach, the liver, and the kidneys are all connected parts of the food and digestive system. "When disordered (usually through torpidity of the stomach) they cripple the body and throw a gloom as of night over tho mind. On the earliest signs of anything wrong with them use Mother Seigel's Syrup at once.
