the blood cause millions of tiny
disease germs TO set up their
attack on the surface of the
skin. and in the form of pim-
pies, boils, scaly eruptions and
itchy, burning irritations. be-
gin their disfguring and de-

Being in the blood. these dis

through the blood, and local
applications have no effect
whatever. That is why salves,
ointments, lotions, washes and
other remedies applied TO the
skin can do no more than give
merely temporary relief. Soon
the fiery itching breaks out

not reach the source of the
trouble.
