BLOOD POISON.

There are thousands of men and wo-
men throughout the country who are
letting life and health gradually slip
away from them, who might be saved
from destruction il they only knew
about BARIUM ROCK SPRING
WATER. which is natures specific for
blood poison. and contains in natural
form all the chemical elements neces-
sary to antidote this terrible poison and
drive it out of the system.
1t does not, like many manufa ,tufed
preparations. simply destroy for the
time being the EXTERNAL SIGNS of
this disease, but goes to the root of the
evil and acts on the INTERNAL system.
Hence its results are permanent. We
are not allowed to publish names in eur
testimonials. Visit the Springs. No
pay if not benefited or it will cure you
at home. Ten gallons. prepaid S5.06 for
