It is a disease that requires heroic treatment, for as the law is now evaded ovp&lilyHde- J fied it is simply a farce of the first water.

These are large tubes, branching into smaller ones. As the blood' goes through them it receives from the lungs its supply of air. Your lungs are bellows, and they are working all the time, taking in pure air, and send ing out the breath which is laden with the impurities the blood has brought back in its journey home to the heart by way of the veins. t What ts this blood that ts pumped? - It is your life. Your vital fluid.. Let it run out, and vou die. " Im poverish it, and you become weak, and puny, and pale, and miserable. Let it be laden with impurities, and you are unfitted for work, for duty, for enjoyment, for life. Keep it pure, hearty, and vigorous, and your step is firm and elastic, your mind is clear, your digestion is grood, and vour anne- tite natural. ' There must be iron in the blood that is- pumped. Iron gives the color to the millions and millions of little corousr-lQ that are in the blood. These corpuscles are so small that noo df them when placed in a line make an inch in length. Small as they are, they must be kept in prime order, or you fail. To keep the blood from becom ing thin or impure, Brown's Iron Bitters is the thing you need. This builds up the system by giving to the blood the only oreoaration ofimn ever successfully made. It is the great family remedy for weakness, de bility, and indigestion.
