Some old taint or poison that has been slum- bering there for years is beginning to assert itself, and breaks out and becomes a bad ulcer and perhaps the beginning of Cancer, These old sores are rooted in the blood, and while washes, soaps, salves, etc., keep the surface clean, they are not healing.
