IMPURE BLOOD!
The blood is the life and when any foreign OF
healthy matter gets mixed with it, it is at dis
tributed to every organ of the body. Every nerve
feels the poison and all the vital organs quickly
complain. The stomach will not digest tn g food
perfectly The liver ceases to secrete sufficiency
Of bile The action of the heart is weakened, and
so the circulation is feeble The lungs become
| cIogged with the poisonous matter; hence cough
| and all from slight impurity at the fountain
head Of life-the Blood As if you had thrown
some earth, for instance, in pure spring, from

whole course of the stream becomes disturbed and
discolored As quickly does impure blood fly to
every part and leave its sting behind All the pas
sage become obstructed and unless the obstruction

These pills not only purify the blood, but regen-
crate all the secretions of the body therefore, un
