Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfield, Mo-,
writes: "For six years 1 have been a
sufferer from scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. At this critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

TO care for the teeth In order 70 pre-
serve them and keep them white and
sound. Answer: There arc many per-
sons who have teeth Of such poor quail
lty that no treatment will avail to put
them IN any desirable condition or to
keep them So A perfectly reliable and
conscientious dentist should be con-
suited. and II the teeth are very irregu-
lar they may be Strengthened BY me-
ehanlcal appliances. Tooth powders
and washes should be used with the
utmost caution. Dioxide OF hydrogen

ought 70 be used after every meal.
Sometimes the teeth can be greatly Inn
proved and strengthened by selecting
articles OF diet that are rich In bone
forming substances. Too much rich
food and too much sweet are bad for
the teeth and will almost certainly
weaken their structure and destroy
them.
