NO HABITATION.

There can be no habitatiod in the blood

Swift-s Specie enters the system. 1t
changes the character Of the blood so
that the germs must either perish or get
out and Of course they leave. s. S. S.
also forces out the poison which the
microbes have left behind. If there is a
sore or ulcer the poison comes out through
that, otherwise through the sku.
