BAD BLOOD
OFTEN INHERITED

Bad blood does not always come as
the result Of careless living, or indis-
cretions it is a condition frequently
inherited. Normal, healthy blood
contains millions of tiny red corpus
cles, which are the vitalizing and
nourishing element Of the circulation,
their Office being to provide every
portion Of the system with its neccs-
sary strength and nutriment. In
weak, impure blood these corpuscles
are lacking in numbers, and therefore
the blood is not able to supply the
proper amount Of nourishment to the
body. Bad blood manifests itself in
many ways, With some it takes the
form of skin diseases and eruptions,
others become bilious and malarious,
with sallow compilations, torpid liver,
etc. Bad blood produces Rheumatism,
Catsrrh, Sores and Ulcers, Scrofula
and like troubles. Nothing is equal
to S. S. S. as remedy for bad blood;
