BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due TO the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, free from

arsenic and potash and the large number
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
