One of the Greatest Mysteries

one Oh the OTthttst u1 sttHits
OF the many mysteries which battle
the analyses OF Science, is the law
of heredity governing the trans
mission of mental and physical
characteristics from one generation
TO another. In no instance is this
strange law more emphatically IL
Illustrated than in the generic per.
petuatlon of diseases. Of all the
hereditary blood diseases, none is
more common than Scrofula. This
widely prevalent disease has hith-
erto been considered incurable, but
since the introduction of S. s. s.,
natures own antidote for diseased
blood, these scrofulous affections
have lost their worst features
their alleged incurability. The
fact IS established that the severest
form of Scrofula can be cured by
this remarkable remedy. The fact
is verified by hundreds of incOn-
testible proofs. The following tes-
timony is a striking exhibition OF
this tact. 1t cannot fail to impress
the minds of parents who may have
children troubled with this danger
Gus disease. Mr.. Collier is high
" respected, popular and we'll
known citizen of Dooly county. He
particularly requests the pnblica-
ton of his letter, 20 that other fam
lies, similarly afflicted, may learn,
through his experience, how they
can procure q remedy which will
infallibly and permanently cure and
eradicate hereditary ScrOfuls.

Gentlemen,-Tbree or four years
ago, my little daughter, SIX years
of age, had very ugly boils, which,
very soon after their appearance,
terminated in running sores, all
over her head and face. | tried all
the known remedies-salves, heal
ing wash etc, but none seemed
to do any good. Her scalp was in
a bad condition, indeed. Finally,
| sent her 10 Atlanta to have her
examined, for l had become very
uneasy about her. The doctors
who examined her said she was
badly afflicted with Scrofula.-
About the same time my little son,
aged tour years, broke out all oyer
the head and face with the same
disease, and for weeks he could not
lie down to sleep without suffering
great torture. His head was solid
mass of sores.
began to use s. s. s. as soon as
| was satisfied about the nature OF
the disease, and continued to use it
until all signs of the disease had
disappeared. 1t is now going on
three years since | have seen any
signs OF the disease breaking out.
To-day they are as healthy looking
children as can be found in the
county. Before they began the
use of s. s. s. they we're frail in
constitution, but now they look
strong and healthy. l did not give
them any other kind of medicine to
aid the s. s. s., but relied entirely
on it, as had seen some cases
land bad ones, too,) of blood poi.
soning cured in my nelghborhood
by the s. s. 8.
Every parent has within reach q
cheap and positive cure for their
children, afflicted as mine were,
and all they have to do is to give
it a fair trial, and a cure is certain.
You are at liberty to use this letter
so that parents may know how my
little children were cured of their
troublesome disease. God knows
1t has lifted heavy load from my
mind, as their aflliction greatly
troubled me. JOE I. COLLIER.
