The moment your back hurts or kid

If You Expect to Enjoy
Perfect Health

You cannot expect to enjoy
all the benefits of a strong and
healthy body, and the splendid
vitality you are entitled to, un-
less your blood is absolutely
clean. Every heartbeat, every
breath OF life depends upon the
blood supply-every function
of your body is either properly
or poorly performed, according
to the condition of your blood.
Can you not see, therefore,
the vital importance of keeping
your blood absolutely pure?
In fact, there are scores of
ailments attributed to other
causes that would never exist if
the blood were kept entirely
free of impurities. And do no5
underestimate the damage to
your health that any irregular
ity may occasion, no matter how
seemingly slight, You cannot
afford to labor under any handi-
cap, or neglect to correct any
condition that tends to lessen
your efficiency.
Keeping we'll and in perfect
physical condition is largely a
matter of being able to resist
disease. Every day you are
subject to attack by disease
germs. Everyone else is SINH
larly exposed, and those who
succunb are those whose sys-
TENS are not in condition to re-
sist the disease germs which are
ever present. The slightest i'm
purity in your blood will weak
en- your system and lessen your
ability to resist disease.
To be reasonably sure of per-
feet health, therefore, your
blood should be kept free from
any trace of impurity. This is
absolutely necessary if you
would enjoy the robust vitality
