Don't Continue to Suffer
Because of Wrong
Treatment

If you are one of the thou
sands who are afflicted with
any form OF irritating skin
disease. verify you know
what real torture is. You
know well enough what it
means to lie awake at night,
rubbing and scratching your
raw and irritated skin, in a
vain endeavor to get relief
from the fiery burning.
OF course, the most serious
phase of skin disease is the
almost unbearable suffering
caused by the fiery itching
and irritation of the skin. In
addition, the disease often
causes unsightly roughness
and discolorations, disfigurIng
and spelling the complexion,
and leaving its blighting
marks in its wake. Many a
beautiful skin has been mar
red by these disorders. which
first appeared rs tiny red
pimples.
At last science has de-
termined the real source of
all skin diseases, and with
this enlightenment comes the
reason why the prevailing
treatment heretofore used
has proven such a complete
failure. 1t has been proven
that impurities i'm the blood
