Any slight disorder or impurity
that creeps into the blood is a
source of danger. for every vital
organ of the body depends upon
the blood supply to properly per-
form its functions. 1t is quite true
that practically every one is equal
ly exposed to the attacks of dis
ease. You are just as liable to be
attacked as the man or woman sit
ting next to you on the street car.
Ii all depends upon the condition
of your blood. IF it is thin and
impoverished. and has been al
lowed to reach low state by the
accumulation of impurities. you
have not sufficient vitality to resist
these germ attacks. and they find
a fertile field in your system to
spread disease.

Indians made many excellent rem
