Many people have looked upon this idea with ridicule and scepticism, but show us a person in New Haven who has pure, rich. red blood, and we will show you a person who is healthy, strong aud robust, with clear skin and bright eyes. On the other hand, a person whose blood is poor, thin, bad ly nourished, sluggish or watery is just as sure to be subject to nervous ness and all kinds of human aches. pains and Ills, and that tired and all- dragged-out feeling is inevitable. Then the impurities of the blood often break out in the form of erup- tions.
