The bile thus made is the most important factor in the process of digestion, for without a) certain denite proportion of it none of the solvents or digestive uids are sufc- ientl active enough to do their work. The iveroccasionally dries up, so to` speak, and no bile is secreted. This soon becomes apparent by a feeling of torpor or laziness, yawning and a. yellow appearance. to the skin, and in bad.c_ases a painin the side. The liver being a gland requires an alter-- ative medicine, as alteratives are medicines which promote glandular secretion. In Merri-I-1's System Tonic is found a combination of the best mineral and vegetable alteratives known and when you take it the liver is quickly restored to- its proper con- dition. Then, too, System Tonic puries the blood of all accumulated oison and acts on the bowels; un- oading the foul matter that has accumulated through lack of bile.
