Letters from
Women

Cured by the use of Kodol are received daily.
Their troubles nearly all begin with indiges-
ton or other stomach disorder.
If the food you eat fails to give strength
to your body, 1t Is because the juices se-
GREETED by the stomach and digestive organs
are inadequate to transform the nutrient prop
critics of the food into blood. That Is
indigestion. The system IS deprived of the
amount of nourishment required TO keep up
the strength, and the result is that one or
more of the delicate organs gradually grows
weak, and then weaker, until finally II Is
diseased. Here great mistake is made.
That of treating the diseased organ. Tho

People with good blood possess strong,
steady nerves and are b1est with good
appetites and digestion, and enjoy
sound, refreshing sleep. If we could
always maintain the purity of the
blood then we might enjoy perpetual
health, but it becomes infected and
poisoned and most of the ills that afaict
humanity and undermine the constitu-
ton are caused by an impoverished
or polluted condition of this vital fluid.
When the blood is diseased the skin
loses its healthy appearance, and the
complexion, its freshness and beauty
and becomes red and rough and full of
pimples and sp1otches. Itching, scaly
eruptions, b1ackheads, boils and rashes
break out upon the body when the
blood is too poor or too thin and acid,
and is not supplying proper nourish-
ment to the system. Debility, poor
appetite, bad digestion, restless sleep
and nervousness more often come from
sluggish, impure blood than any other
cause. To build up the blood, restore
and nutritious again is the only rationa
