Purc Air Purine. the blood.

THERE'S nothing like pure air to purify
the blood. One day in the country, on
high ground. under shady tree. Is
worth all the cures in therapeutics. A
sail down salt river or a tent on the
beach when the sun is UP is another
excellent tonic. Bad air makes bad
blood or keeps 1t bad. Soiled air can
no more purify impure blood than dirty
water can cleanse soiled clothes. Fresh
water, good soap and clear air are
needed for nice laundry work, and they
are invaluable to the human system.
Get out of doors and let the lungs and
