HEREDITARY BLOOD POISON

Scrofula is a disease manifested
usually by swelling aid liberation
Of the glands, especially about the
neck. It's almost entirely hereditary
in its origin, being the dregs or re-
mains OF some specific blood poison.
Where the blood is greatly weakened
with the scrofulous poison, the disease
attacks other portions of the system
besides the glands, and then we see its
effects in weak eyes, poorly developed
bodies, running sores and ulcers, skin
diseases, especially on the scalp, ca
tarrhal troubles, etc. Scrofula usually
makes its appearance in childhood.
