The popular view Of the relation OF the
blood to human character and conduct Is
marked in many familiar expression
We speak OF there being bad blood be-
tween people at enmity. OF blue blood as
indicating ancestry, of "back bloodp as
describing treacherous nature, and in
many another phrase mark our belief that
in the mental, moral and physical man,
"the blood is the life" The one basis Of a
healthful, happy and useful life is pure
blood. If the blood is pure, disease has no
permanent lodging place in the system.
For this reason the use OF DR.. Plerce's
Golden Medical Discovery rids the body of
diseases which have their origin in impu-
rity Of the blood. 1t absolutely purides
the blood, carrying of the waste and poi,
sonous matter, increasing the action OF the
blood in quantity and quality such as is
essential to condition of health. 1t cures
ninety eight people out of every hundred
who give it a fair trial
