THE BLOOD IN OLD AGE . — As age advances the blood becomes thin and cloudy—or , in a full habit , thick and cloudy . The failing of the powers of life requires extra nutrition and support , and the blood yielding the excess required is soon overcharged with carbon , which gives to it the cloudy appearance . Being then impure , day by day the vitiated matter increases , and the body

suffers from a thousand ailments . "The Blood Purifier , " old Dr . Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla , supplies the extra nutrition to the blood and restores to it its florid hue , and then the progress of decay is arrc ted and lhe ailment disappear—man lives out his clays , and the sunset of life is unattended with suffering .
