A MILD CASE

Of Contagious Blood Poison never exis. ted. It is always bad, though sometimes no external symptoms of the disease ap. pear for long time.
 Because the disease is slow in devel. oping does not indicate that the case is mild one, for the poisonous virus at work ill the blood and system may be spending its force upon some internal vital organ while you are looking for ex. ternal signs. Contagious Blood Poison does not affect all alike. In most cases the first little sore is quickly followed by painful swellings in the groins, a red eruption upon the body, sores or ulcers in the mouth and throat, unsightly copper colored blotches, loss of hair and eye brows and other symptoms of this miser- able disease. When the poison is thus fighting its way to the surface, exposing the disease in all its hideousness, we call it bad case; but Contagious Blood Poi son, whether working internally or exter- nally, is dangerous, treacherous disease.
