A Blockade That Should Be Raised.

The egress from the system of waste material through the natural channels should be rendered free, without loss of time, when a blockade is produced by an attack of constipation, a disorder which, if It becomes chronic, is productive qf serious bodily mischief. Jaundice, severe headache, nausea, dyspepsia, the usual concomitants of the malady mentioned, all indicate that the bodily functions are materially interfered with. Hoe tetter’s Bitters is particularly efficacious in cases of this sort, and renders the habit of body perfectly regular. It is a medicine greatly to be preferred to drastic cathartics, which are well calculated to drench, but unhappily also to weaken the intestines. We say unhappily, since such medicines are the favorite resource of many ill-ad-vised persons, who resort to them upon the most trivial occasion, and greatly to their discomfort and injury.
