have been made brighter and happier by
cures made where for many years those
af1ilcted hardly dared hope for relief.
Daily are the parlors of the institute
filled with the weary and w6e-begone suf-

chief sufferers from chronic sores and
ulcers. While the blood remains in

healing is simply impossible and the
sore will continue to grow and spread
in spite of washes and salves or any

the sore is but the outward sign OF
