yMPTOMS OF BAD BLOOD

There is a popular belief that every boil is worth
uorv times it's weight in gold, and the sufferer
nmstiently, even cheerfully, endures the pain under the

There may be no external evidence of bad blood until
the warm days of spring set in motion the sluggish
circulation and the pent-up impurities, unable to escape
through the natural outlets, gather near the surface of
