IhiS Inquire represents I'ic iuScnsibc PRESENTATION
which is continually cooperating through the pores
oil the skn carrying with il all the orn on, particles
OF the boGy, and all bad humors which NAV have been
generated in the system.
This lnsensblc Precipitation is the great Eyacuant of
all the IMPURITIES of the BLOOD, the GRAND SAFETY
VALVE OF all the organs in the human BODY and when
IN full and healthy operation disease can attack the
system.
All disease comes by or is connected with a check
or an arrest OF this ISsENsBLE pERspIRArIoN. By
colds, or some other cause the pores are closed and
then all the out matter Of the body is shut in I'M.
ON the internal organs, under the skin thus all
OF internal and external diseases produced. What
STORE the iNsENsIgLE PRESENTATION in all cases will
do more than any other medicine known to cure dis
case, and re- establish health.
Now let me ask every candid mind what course in
the cure oil disease, seems reasonable? Is il moi
toopcn the pores that thereby the Inscnsbc Pcrspira.
tion may pass oil, cleansing the BODY and blood OF all
their impurities? Woud you dose person w it'll NIcr.

that the REMEDY should be applied to the SEAT of all

which shut in all the mischief, aud cxpcl the foreign
matter which wars with the living pow crs within?
The true philosophy of curing disease is revealed in
amanncr which put all theories and cavils to silence
by my All-Iiraling Ointment.
