Discovered by the People.

Many of the inventors and vendors OF
the various nostrums that are offered to
the public to-day, only to disappear and
be succeeded by something else to
morrow, make the most sweeping and
absurd claims for them. They are
heralded as cure-alls, ditis no wonder
that the public has become suspicious.
The most remarkable fact in the history
of s. s. S. (for, unlike most other pro
prietary medicines, it has history is
this: That great many of it's virtues
have been discovered by the people
themselves. 1t has never been adver-
tised as specific for skin cancer, and
yet there are many testimonials going
to show that S. S. 8. will cure that dread
disease. These testimonials are of such
a character that there is no "going be-
hind the returns"
