IMPURE BLOOD!

The bl bod is the life and when any foreign or
healthy matter gets mixed with it, it is at dis

feels the poison, and all the vital organs quickly
complain. The stomach will not digest tn g food
perfectly The liver ceases TO secTete Il sufficiency
of bile. The action Of the heart is weakened, and
tie circulation is feeble The lungs become
clogged with the poisonous matter; hence cough

some earth, for instance, in pure spring, from
which ran a tiny rivulet, in few minutes the
