ITCHING, BURNING SKIN DISEASES

Authorities are now of the opinion ! that many forms of eczema and i eruptive skin diseases are caused by 1 lumors in the blood. This state of the blood may be due to irregular habits, improper action of the liver Kidneys, stomach or some contracted blood disease. Internal treatment that goes directly to the root of the trouble-acts upon or purifies the blood-is the most dependable 1 means of getting real relief.
 Such treatment is Prescription C2223, reliable blood purifier. This splendid medicine preparation was used for years by a successful phy- slclan in his private practice. It pro- duced such satisfactory resules for i hls patients and has since relieved so many thousands that it's possible that 1t will give you relief.
 It you are now suffering the tor lures of burning, itching eczema, or any eruptive skin disease, and all other medicine and doctors have fail ed, go to your druggist and get S1.50 bottle of Prescription C-2223 If two bottles do not give you suf- fic'ent benefit to justify your con- tinuing the treatment, take the emp ties back to the same druggist and get the $500 that you paid for the prescription.
 While taking Prescription C-2223. the bowels should act regularly, to help throw off the poisons which are causing your trouble. There is nothing better than 2223 Liver Pills They have certain tonic effects and do not sicken or gripe. One is a, dose.
 If your druggist will not supply you with Prescription C-222S and 223 Liver Pills, both will be sent you postpaid on receipt of S1.75. Sup- pose you write the 2223 Laboratory, Memphis, Tenn, 132 South Second street, for literature, 1920 Almanac and sample of the pills.
