Do Those Painful Boils
Anyone who has, or is, suffering
from boils knows how sick and
miserable they make you feel, and
the worst part is that as soon as
you seem to get rid of one another
crops up to take its place, seem
ingly, only to prolong your agony
and misery.
Boils are caused by bad blood,
but when the blood is purified,
cleansed and vitalized by B.B.B.
the boils quickly disappear, your
misery at an end, your health and
strength improved, and your skin
becomes clean, smooth and free
from eruptions. Just try a bottle.
The third annual Rally of the W.
M. S. -of Crediton District of the

poverty produced by the ruination of
the silk market though the use of
rayon-, frequent earthquakes, vol

missionary workers to -oppose its
activities. Special music at the ev
ening sesson was a duet by Mrs. E.
