Recipe to Clear
A Pimply Skin
Pimples Are Impurities Seeking an
Outlet Through Skin
,. Pores.

Pimples, sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the bow
els and then absorbed into the blood
through the very ducts which should
absorb only nourishment to sustain
the body.
1t is the function of the kidneys to
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form of urine, but
in many instances the bowels create
more toxins and impurities than the
kidneys can eliminate, then the blood
uses the skin pores as the next best
means of getting rid of these impuri-
ties, which often break out all over the
skin in the form of pimples.
The surest way to clear the skin Of
these eruptions, says a noted author
ity, is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of lad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in glass of hot water
each morning before breakfast for one
week. This will prevent the formation
of toxins in the bowels. 1t also stimu-
lates the kidneys to normal activity.
thus coaxing them to filter the blood
Of impurities and clearing the skin of
pimples
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
Here you have q pleasant. efferve-
scent drink, which usually makes pim-
pies disappear; cleanses the blood and
is excellent for the kidneys as well.
