If you are Buffering or have suffered,

sily tired T Does a littlo extra exertion
produce palpation of tho heart ? Does your
liver, or urinary organs, or your kidneys,
frequently act out of order ? Is your urine
sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or is it
ropy on settling r Or does ti thick skutn

bottom after it has stood awhile t Do you
have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia?
Are your bowels constipated? Do you havo
spells of fainting, or rushes of blood to the
head ? Is vour memory impaired ? Is
your mind constantly dwelling on the sub

be leit alone, to get away irom everybody
Does any little thing lr.ako you start or

enjoy yourself io society as well ? Do you
pursue your bupinct-s with the same ener

not lay it to your liver or dispepsia. Have
you restless nights ? Your back weak, and
