case was hopeless and further treat ment useless. Tt is difficult to inn agine how desp pondeut we all became, '" said MT. Crausby, knowing that she must die and unable to give her any relief. l had spent over five hundred dollars with the best medical skill to be had, and felt that there was no further hope.
 "One day I happened to read an ad- vertisement of S. s. S., recommending that remedy for cancer, and in view of the failure of the most eminent physi- clans in the country, 1 confess l had little faith left in any human agency. However, purchased bottle of $. S.S., and to my delight it seemed to benefit her. After she had taken a couple of bottles the cancer began to heal. and astonishing as it may seem, a few bot ties more cured her entirely. Yor can probably better understand how re markab1e this cure was when Iexplain that the cancer had eaten two holes in the breast two inches deep. These healed up entirely, and although ten years have elapsed, not sign of the disease has ever returned, and we are assured of the permanenCe of the cure, which we at first doubted.
 'tAs my wife inherited the cancer, I certainly regard S. s. S. as the most wonderful remedy in the world, and it is truly Godsend to those afflicted with this terrible disease. You may be sure that 1 shall always be grateful to that remedy, for without it my home would now be deso1ate and my chil- dren motherless.
 The above is but one of many re- markabIe cures being daily made by s. S. s. Cancer is becoming alarm ing1y prevalent, and manifests itself in such variety of forms, that any lump, sore or scab, it matters not how small, which does not readily heal up and dis appear may well be regarded with suspicion. We will gladly send to any address, full accounts of several other cures fully as remarkable as this one.
 For real blood troubles, s. S. S. has no equal. It wipes ont completely the most obstinate cases of blood diseases, which other remedies do not seem to touch. s. S. s. gets at the root of the disease, and forces 1t out permanently.
 s. s. s. is guaranteed purely vegeta- bic, and is a positive and permanent cure for Scrofu1a, Eczema, Cancer, Rheumatism and all traces of bad blood. Our valuable books will be mailed free to any address. Swift Specific Co.,, Atlanta, Ga.
