Curing Skin Troubles So many people, both men and wo- men, suffer from skin troubles, such as eczema, blotches, pimples and irri- tation that a word of advice is nec- essary. It is a great mistake for such sufferers and those. with bad complexions to smear themselves with greasy ointments. Often they could not do anything worse, for the grease clogs the pores of the trou- bled skin and their condition actual- ly becomes worse. When there are pimples or erup- tions, or an irritating or itching rash, a soothing boracie solution may help to allay the irritation, but of course that does not cure the trouble. Skin complaints come from an ime pure condition of the blood and will persist until the blood is thoroughly purified: It is well known that Dr. Williams Pink Pills have effecied the best results in many forms of skin disorders and blemishes. Thi& is due to the fact that these pills make new, rich blood, and that this new blood attacks the impurities that give rise to skin troubles and disperses them; so that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure skin disorders from with- in the system--the only sure way. It should be added that Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills have a beneficial | effect upon the general health. They increase the appetite and energy and cure disease that arise from impure blood.
