CERISE a’ BAD BLOOD, BAD COMPLEXION. The skin is the seat of an almost endless variety of diseases. They are known by various names, but are due to the same cause, acid and other poisons in the blood that irritate and interfere with the proper action of the skin. To have a smooth, soft skin, free from all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure and healthy. The many preparations of arsenic and. potash and the large number of face powders and lotions generally used in this class of diseases cover up for a short time, but cannot remove permanently the ugly blotches and the red, disfiguring pimples. Eternal vigilance Its the price of a beautiful complexion when such remedies are relied on. Mr. H. T. Shobe, 2704 Lucas Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., says: Ped 3 daughter was afflicted for years with a disfiguring eruption on her face, w'' resisted all treatment. She was taken to . celebrated health springs, but received no bene. fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with. out result, until we decided to try 8.S.8.,and by the time the first bottle was finished the eruption began todisappear, A dozen bottles cured her completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.
