Corrosive sublimate is the usual form of
mercury given for blood and skin diseases,
and it is one of the most violent and active
poisons. A case is on record of the death of
a child from the effects of corrosive subli-
mate sprinkled on an excoriated surface
Taken in small doses for length of time,
it gradually settles in the tissues and bones,
producing mercurial rheumatism and other
diseases equally as painful. Persons who
have been poisoned in this way, or who suf-
fer from anv blood complaint or skin humor,
should by all means take q course of Swifts
Specific, which is the only vegetable prepa-
ration which will eliminate this poison from
the system. Send for copy or Treatise on
