Pure Blood, Muddy Water.

Pure blood may be compared to pure water,
and impure blood to muddy water. II you pass
muddy water through muslin, you soil it; con-
tinuo the process and you cover with thick mud.
Blood passes through all parts Of the body; If
good and pure itnourshes and cleauses the parts
it goes through. II impure it leaves more or
less dirt behidd It. Brandreth's Pills are the
medicine wanted, because they are made on pur-
pose to take dirty humors out Of the body, and
they never fail. These pills cure scrotula, even
of thirty years' standing they have cured cases
Of rheumatism when the patient had not walked
Or four years, Of paralysis where the legs had
lost their power Of movement for seventeen
years. The evidence in these GASES cannot be
disputed. Is there town in the world where
the evidence exists not? II Brandreths Pills
have been much used there, we know that su0h
evidence can be found.
But be sure and see upon each box, my name
