Blood Poison
Those who have never had Blood Poi-
son can not know what a desperate con
dltion it can produce This terrible
disease which the doctors are totally
unuble to cure is communicated from
one generation to another inflicting its
taint upon countless innocent ones
Some yeara ago I was Inoculated with polaon
by a nurse who Infected iny babe with blood
taint Tho little one was
unequal to tbe struggle
and Its life was yielded
up to tbe fearful poison
Tor els lorifc years I suf-
fered untold misery I
was covered with sores
and ulcers from head to
foot and no language
can express my feelings
of woe during those long
J
years I had the best Vj
medical treatment Sev
ral physicians flueceBVM
sively treated me but all
to no purpose Tho mer
cury and potash seemed to add fu l to the
awful flame which was devouring me I was
advised by friends who had teen wonderful
cured made by It to try Swifts Specific We
got two bottles nnd I Mt hope again revive In
my breast hope for healtii and happiness
again I Improved from the start and a com-
plete and perfect cure was tho result S 8

perate cases Mb T W Lee

Of the many blood remedies S S S-
