Myth. Are Bu. symbols of Truth.

As the scholar sees in the vain but beauti~
full mythoIogies of the ancients the embodied
expressions of the hungry human soul,
blindly cropping after the Infinite, so the
physician sees in that popular myth of the
sixteenth century the fountain of perpetual
health and youih-an expression of the long
ings of suffering humanity fof a remedy that
should forever prevent tue inoursion 81 dis
ease. The wilds of Europe were ransacked
for this wonderful fountain, and Ponce de
Leon sought for it in the ey~press.swamps
and tangled everglades of our sunny Florida.
Men have searched for 1t everywhere and
anywhere but where it really is-in the hu-
man body itself. The blood is the real foun-
tain of perpetual health and youth. When
this source is corrupted, the painful and
sorrow-produCing effects are visible in many
shapes. The multifarious formsin which it
manifests itself would form subjects upon
which | might write volumes. Blu as all the
varied forms of disease which depend upon
bad blood are cured, or best treated, by such
medicines rs take up from this fluid and ex.
crete from the system the noxiouB elements,
it is not of practical impor ance that should
describe each. For instance, mediGalHuthOrs
describe about fifty varieties of skin diseases,
but as they all require for their cure very
similar treatment, 1t Is of no practical utility
to know Just what name to applysto a certain
form OF skin disease, so you Know how best
to cure it. Then again, | might go on and
describe various kinds Of scrofuious sores,
fever sores, white sweilings, enlarged glands,
and ulcers Of varying appearances might
how ~virulent poison may show itself
in various forms of eruptions, ulcers, sore
throat, bony tumors, etc. but as all these
vaiious-appearing manifestation of bad
blood are cured by a uniform means, Ideem
such a. course unnecessary. Thoroughly
cleanse the blood, which is the great fountain
of life, and good digestion, 4 fair skin, buoy
spirits, vital strength, and soundness of
constitution, will all return to us. For this
