of mental and physical characteristics
from one generation to another. In
no instance is this strange law more
emphatically illustrated than in the
generic perpetuation of diseases. OF
all the hereditary blood diseases, none
is more common than Scrofula. This
widely prevalent disease has hither-
TO been considered incurable, but
since the introduction of S. S. s., ma
lures own antidote for diseased blood,
these scrofulous Affections have lost
their worst features-theira alleged in
durability. The fact is established
that the severest form of Scrofula can
be cured by this remarkable remedy.
The fact is verified by hundreds of
} incontestible proofs. The following
testimony is striking exhibition OF
this fact. 1t cannot fail to impress
f the minds of parents who may have
children troubled with this dangerous
disease. Mr.. Collier is a highly re
8 spected, popular and well-knowr
q citizen of Dooly county. He particu

,s perience, how they can procure
e remedy which will infalliby and per
- manently cure and eradicate heredi
n tary Scrofula.
