THE LIVER IN THE SPRING
Tlio liver, located on tlio right side, below the right lung, its lower edge boing directly under the short l'iki and extending across to the left si«* is not only the largest gland of tlio body, hut is one of tlio most complex m its workings, and, like a delicato piece of machinery, is easily thrown out of order. Upon its proper action depends the mental and physical welfare of the body. Any one of the following symptoms indicate its departure from health Symptoms.

History.—During winter, Nature
wisely arranges tliut we should live on foods containing much fat, or, as tlioy arc known, hydro-carbons, for tho purpose of supplying heat to the body; tho chemical operation necesBtiry to transform fat into heat is tbo exclusivo work of tho liver, and so (luring the timo stated it is constantly congested. With the approach of warm weather our diet changes to nifaclc-producing food, and the work on?#! liver islesseued. In the majority of casts, however, it is unable to completely throw off the excess of bile, but remained congested, causing that lazy, tired feeling which lmmy have in tho spring months, when the weather becomes wa,im. This is evident of an unhealthy condition, and though people appreciate the necessity of an alterative at this poriod, the common idea is to lake drastic pills and produce a cathartic effect, only to make matters worse. The liver must be unloaded, and its proper action restored before hot weather, if you wish to preserve health, and if this distinct call of nature is unheeded; serious results will occur. The blood will become loaded with bile and lithic acid, and as every drop of vital lluid passes through the kidneys to be purified, they soon break down, and arc rendered unable to carry out the deadly poison. Treatment,—Warner's Safe Cure aiuV Warner's Safe Pills have not only> specific action on the Kidneys, but on the liver also.

As you value the blessings of health, do not allow the summer to approach without giving your system a '• general rouse-cleaning" with Warner's safe femedies. " 'l'o be forewarned is to oroarwed,
