But the very fact that old sores resist every form of local or external treatment, and even return after being cut aw ay, shows that back of them isa | marbid cause which must be removed before a cure can result.

Another cause for bad blood is the retention in the system of the refuse and waste matters of the body. Those members whose duty it is to carry off the useless accumulations, become dull and sluggish in their action and leave their work imperfectly done, and this fermenting matter is ab- sorbed into the circulation.
