Ger of the most malignant type, and
after exhausting their efforts without
doing me any good, they gave up the
case as hopeless. When informed that
my father had died from the same
disease, they said must die, as hered-
itary Cancer was incurab1e. 1 was
terribly reduced in health, and felt as
if my life was was ting away.
Z" At this crisis, was advised by
friend to try S. S. s., and in short
while the Cancer seemed more in
famed than before. 1 was informed
that vas favorable, however, as the
medicine acts by forcing out the
poison through the pores of the skin.
Before long the Cancer began to
discharge and continued to do SO for
three months; then it began to heal.
1 continued the medicine a while
longer, until the Cancer disap-
peared entirely, and 1 enjoyed better
health than ever before. This has
been several years ago and there has
not been a sign of return of the
disease
Cancer is becoming alarIningly
prevalent, and manifests itself in
such a variety of forms, that any
sore or scab, it matters not how small,
which does not readily heal up and
disappear may well be regarded with
The fact that S. S. S. guaranteed
purely Uegetabte) cures hereditary Can
Ger, which is considered incurab1e,
places it without an equal as a
sure cure for all manner of real blood
diseases, such as Scrofu1a, Eczema,
Contagious Blood Poison, or any other
form of bad blood. Our treatise on
Cancer and Blood Diseases will be
mailed free to any address by Swift

Cancer

1t is very often that the most ins'g e.

the most violent disease. There IS
not a more destr uctive disease than
Cancer. and in majority OF cases !, s; II
is first indicated by very small pm
ole or sore. TO which no attention is
attracted, until it before long develops
into the most alarming conditions. !
Here is another case where the first
symptoms of most violent Cancer
were too small to receive much notice
until the disease had fully developed.
Mrs. Laura r. Minis has resided at
Smithvil1e, Georgia, for years, andis
well known throughout the adjoining
country. In a recent letter she tells
of a wonderful case.
She says: "A small pirnple of a
strawberry color appeared on my
cheek; it soon changed to purple, and
began to grow rapidly, notwithstand-
ing all efforts TO check it, until it was
the size of partridge egg. My eye
became terribly inflamed, and was so
swollen, that for quite while could
not see. The doctors said 1 had Cam

Every engaged man in the world has his

One of the flctions which women insist

cannot share the moan they made,
These poets of the olden time,
Who wept to SEQ the flowers fade
Beneath the breath of autumn's rime.
No sympathy is in my breast
For grievings vain o'or fallen leaves
Or sicl1ly screetis of vague unrest
Which every autumn poet wcavcs.
The frosty season never brought
One throb of honest sorrow till
Shirt waists We're added to the lot
OF lovely things the frosts must kill.
