BOILS & BLOTCHES.
A person suffering from cruptions in the skin has much to endure. It is not merely the discomfiture and irritation and painful
sensation, but life is made miserable by depression of spirits. The liver is torpil and the kidneys are partially inoper- ative, and you feel languid and weak. The disease is in the blood, and when the system is not cleansed through the usual channels Nature asserts herself
and forces portions of the impurities through the skin in the form of Pimples, Boils and Blotches. External remedies powders, ointments, lotions only alleviate; they do not get at the cause. Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills get at the cause by removing, the disease from the Blood. They cleanse the system by stimulating the liver and strengthening the kidneys, which filter the Blood and drive out the impure matter through the bowels.
They are a parfter" Blood Purifier and a positive and peramument cure for Hilinuxnema, "Ite digestion, Constipation, Headachen. Sallow Complexion. Liver and Kadney Troubles, Piks Pimples. Pails and Bitch, and for Female Allment
