upon symptoms. Every one can know pre-
ciscly what disease they have by having
their blood tested, and this test is free to
everybody. "Blood Wine," the leading
medicine Of today, has from the moment OF
its discovery led the way in the general
overthrow Of disease merely because threats
disease in an entirely new way. The princi-
Pile upon which tssBlood Wine" works is to
abstract from the blood the poisons that
stagnate tho system, and TO cause each
organ to perform its work. People that are
diseased have some-freQuently several
organs that are inactive. This medicine
arouses them, in keeping with nature. 1t is
not temporary stimulant. 1t is not mar
cotic, or a deadener Of pain or feeling. 1t
acts in the system as steam does in an
engine. 1t furnishes energy, supplies fuel,
and draws out Of the blood the germs from
every nook and corner. The makers Of
"Blood Wine," in order that everybody may
have o chance to know scientifically what
flows through their blood, have arranged
with an eminent physician and bacteriologist
"a man skilled IN all the phases of bac-
terology, who can tell at a glance at their
blood the state OF ones general health, the
prospects for recovery, or the chances Of
early death just what should be done to de-
stroy the germs, and what should be done to
rebuild the weakened tissues.
This is the
