You worry over it till tho brain grows weary and work with it until the patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate. A chronic sore is the very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy nd impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under the effects of some serious disorder.' The taking of strong medicines, like mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results in obstinate non-healing sores of the most offensive character. ' - . - Often an inherited tain t breaks out in frightful eating sores upon the limbs or face in old a?e or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood is always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders can do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will never heal permanently till the blood itself has been purified and the deadly terms and poisons destroyed, and with S.
