Pimples are not a serious trouble, but they are very unsightly, Pimples are caused wholly by bad blood, and to get rid of them it is neces- sary to purify the blood of all its im- purities. Burdock. Blood Bitters has made many remarkable cures; the pimples have all disappeared, and a bright, clean, com- plexion left behind, Mr, Lennox D. Cooke, Indian Path, N,S., writes: "I am writing you a few lines to tell you what Burdock Blood Bitters has done for me. Last winter my face was covered with pimples. I tried different kinds of medicine, and all seemed to fail. I was one day to a friend's house, and there they advised me to use B.B.B., so I purchased two bottles, and before I bad them taken I found I was getting better. I got . two more, and when they were thrashed I was completely cured. I find it is a great blood purifier, and I recommend it to all."
