BAD LIVERS.

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 imperfecr: 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 little use treating 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.

They are a perfect Bidad Purifier, and

a positive and per manent cure for Billousness, Indr gestion, Constipa tion, Headaches, Sallow Complexion, “Liver" and Kidney Troubles, Piles, Tharpies, Bats and Blotches, and o

RECONSTRUCTION.

TRANSPORTATION PROFITS. Interesting data for study in relation to industrial reconstruction is supplied by the Empire Resources Development! Committee from official returns of the control of State railways and tramways in New South Wales.

With the object of removing the management of railways from political oentroi, an Act was passed in 1908 where- by the management of both tramways and Brailways was confided. to a Chief Com- missioner, under whom were appointed two Assistant Commissioners, ons to assist in the management of the railways, and the other in that of the tramways,

The construction of the railway lines is generally undertaken by the. Depart- ment of Public Works, the lines being transferred on completion to the control of the Commissioners. Duplications and deviations of existing lines, however, are carried out by the Commissioners. The extensive contracts entered into in 1915 with the Norton Griffiths Company are under this system making good progress. While the primary object of State rail- way construction has been to promote settlement, the endeavour to make the railway self-supporting has been kept steadily in view

Notwithstanding war conditions the Istest returns available show that on a total cost of construction of both rail- ways and tramways of £73,554,597, a gross profit of £2,880,123 was shown, and after payment of intereat on capital, a uet pront for the year of £68,804 The heavier construction cost was, of course, under the head of railways, which amounted to sixty-five and a half million pounds. Under this head, although the balance over working expenses amounted to 2,329,880, rosulted in an adverse bal aner of 331. Tramways, on the other. hand showed a net surplus of 390,185, making as stated a net pront on the two Bystems of £68,804
