BILIOUSNESS.

THE HONGKONG DAŊLY PRESS, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7cx, 1913.

There are many causes of this complaint, but they all spring from a disordered liver which does not properly fulfil its functions, capecially in a warm climate, when it becomes sluggish in its action. The bile is turned from its proper channel, and enters the blood, and the person, so affected is demoralised throughout his entire system.

ՀՐԱ

"They Reach the Liver."

The presence of biliary poison in the blood upsets the entire digestive system, and is the chief cause of sick headaches. It also causes dull pains and uneasiness in the right side and shoulder blude, a bitter taste in the mouth, sudden dizziness on rising, spots Boating before the eyes, furred tongue, bad breath, bowels loose one day and constipated the next. Alf or any of these symptoms may accompany the bilious condition, and white so affected life is scarcely worth living

Dr. Morse's INDIAN ROOT Putus relieve this trouble speedily, They open the clogged up system, purify the blood, and cleanse the stomach, causing the human mechanism to work smoothly and easily. On the first appearance of bilious symptoms a dose of Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills should be taken, and much unnecessary suffering will be avoided. These pills are compounded to meet the general requirements of man, woman, and child. and the dose must therefore be regulated to suit each individual constitution. They are a safe and reliable remedy for old and young, weak and strong.

They are a perfect Blood Purifler and a positive and permanent cure for Biliousness, Indigestion. Constipation, Headaches, Saflow Complexion, Liver and Kidney Troubles, Pilés, Pimples, Bails and Blotches, and for Female Ailment

RELIEF AND CULE

These are strong headlines, but all you used do, to confirm them, is to read what Town, Cape, wrote to us on April 4th, Mr. John Spiers, of Swellendam, New 1912. He is both a Civil Service and Array pensioner now, but was for some years a timekeeper at the De Beers Mines, Kimberley. Of course, you want to know about Mr. Spiers's ailment, and in his letter he says:-:

"I look back gratefully over the many seats that have passed since my cure by Mother Seigel's Syrup. My system had become thoroughly ran down, by the ravages of acute Indigestion and liver trouble on my previously healthy and robust constitution. I had awful pains in the chest and sides after eating; very oftes, dreadful headaches, and my nights were passed in agony and restlessness. I became despondent and hopeless of per- ananent recovery, for I had tried many inedicines without getting any benefit and began to believe my case incurable."-

-ELECTEIO SLAUGHTERING,

Reporting the electrocution experi ments at the abattoir in Nantes, France, Dr. S. Leduc states that a large number of oxen, bulls, wows, horses, hogs, calves, sheep and dogs have been slaughtered by: this new method, which seems to have proven very satisfactory, The current was of 110 volts, with 100 alternations per second.

ELECTRICITY STORED BY LIGHT. The novel storage battery of C. Winter, German electrician, is charged by simply exposing to light. The battery is described as having two platinum plates immersed in chlorides of iron and mer- cury, and when these plates are connect- ed, chemical reaction takes place between the chlorides, and electrical current is generated. To recharge the battery by reversing the chemical changes, it is only necessary to expose it to the action of the ultra-violet rays of quartz mar cury vapour. Jamp. In the ordinary storage battery, the electrical charge is Istored as chemical energy, which is re- converted into electricity on discharging, and in the new battery the storage is simply effected through the action of lig Ordinary sunlight may serve, the current given out on discharge, however, being only a quarter as great as with.. the ultra-violet light.
