Later I was" advised to try Dr. Chase's Nerve Food with her, so 1 commenced giving them to her just after she had had the German measles. She took six boxes in all, and I found that she was stronger and in better health than she ever was.

Flesh meats of every sort contain impurities, being saturated with venous blood and tissue poisons. Animal products x and extracts arid meat juices are not concentrated nutriments, as commonly supposed, but rather concentrated tissue poisons, which, when taken, renSer the blood impure and diminish its alkalinity. Meat which has undergone decomposition--that decomposition--that is, which has become tender and high-flavored by long keeping after killing of the animal--and all foods which have undergone fermentation. fermentation. or decomposition, are sources of blood contamination. Hence, large eaters of meats are likely to have impure blood. It is well known that butchers are poor subjects for the surgeon. Overeating also renders the blood impure by filling it with unused and imperfectly prepared material which must be treated as so much waste matter matter . Overwork and deficient sleep fill the blood with impurities by the overproduction overproduction and deficient elimination of the tissue wastes or poisons which naturally naturally form in large quantities whenever whenever the body is at work. Drugs of various sorts, such as opium, tobacco and many other narcotic narcotic drugs, contaminate the blood and lessen its defensive power. Exhausting Exhausting indulgences of all sorts have a similar effect. Tobacco and alcohol not only contaminate the blood, but produce disease of the heart and blood vessels. The idea that the blood may be purified purified by medicine of any kind is a very great error and one which has been productive of a vast deal of mischief. There are no herbs or drugs whatever the taking of which will purify the blood. The blood is not to be purified by putting something into a, but requires requires that something be removed from it. Water is the universal cleansing agent, and its free use is essential to blood purification. To undertake to purify the blood by means of pills is about as reasonable as to undertake to launder a dirty shirt or 'any other soiled garment by the same means.
