Not only is the Liver the largest but one of the most important organs in the human body, and when deranged it becomes the source of endless suffering. When the Liver is clogged by the inactivity of the kidneys and bowels, it becomes torpid, and fails to filter the bile from the blood, thus producing biliousness and a general impairment of the digestive system. The tongue is coated, the head aches, digestion is imperfect: there is aching of the limbs and back, feelings of fulness, weight and soreness over the stomach and liver: the eye becomes yellow and jaundiced and the complexion muddy, the urine is scanty and highly coloured, and the bowels irregular, constipation and looseness alternating. There is battle use treaung the liver separately, as it can never be set right until the kidneys and bowels are made active in removing the waste from the body. It is for this very reason that Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills have always proved so wonderfully successful in curing the most chronic Liver complaint, biliousness and complicated ailments of the kidneys, liver, and bowels. They reach the liver as no other remedy does.

VIEW OF THE CLERGY.
That could not be done if it was intimated to young people that they had only to wait for five years in order to recover from the conse quenos of imprudent marriages.
The Earl of Desart urged that divorce cases should be tried only by judges of the High Court who had experience of the work of trying such cases. He was strongly of opinion that piecemeal legisla tion of this kind was inexpedient and undesirable.
The Archbishop of York said he desired to argue this matter entirely from the po.nt of view of its bearing on the gen-
