GOOD BLOOD Given good, clean, healthy blood. Nature will do the rest with any case of catarrh, inflammatory rheumatism, scrofula, eczema, erysipelas, boils, pimples, or skin diseases of any kind. Good blood invariably means vigorous appetite, good digestion and strength. Thus it stands to reason that an effective "alterative" or blood purifier, while it will not cure all diseases, will help In fighting any disease, and wig relieve those mentioned above, all of which comes from bad blood. Forty years ago Dr. A. B. Simpson of Richmond, Ind., was known as one of the most successful physicians in three states. His success was founded almost exclusively on one prescription, the most powerful blcod purifier ever known. This prescription is regularly put up as Dr. A- B. Simpson's Vegetable CompoundIt has been used extensively all over the country, and in forty years has never failed to do good. Simpson's Vegetable Compound is harmless as it is effective.
