TALLY bends, the bones ache, while de-
crepitude and helplessness prema-
turely take possession of the body.
Under this treatment, it is but a short
step from vigor and health to a pair
of crutches. With this wreck of the
system often comes falling of the hair
and eyebrows, loss of finger nails,
and decay of the bones-a condition
most horrible. This is no overdrawn
picture, for the world to-day is full of
these hobbling mercurial wrecks.
Contagious Blood Poison is the most
horrible of all diseases, and has been
appropriately called the curse of man.
kind. Until the discovery of S. S. S.,
it was incurable. 1t has always baf-
fled the doctors, and it is in this dis
ease that the evils of mercury and
potash are most common, because
these drugs are given in such large
doses in an effort to counterfeit the
poison. While they succeed in bottling
up the poison in the system, it always
breaks forth again, attacking some
delicate organ, frequently the mouth
and throat, filling them with eating
sores. S. S. S. is the only known cure
for this terrible disease.
1t is the same in other diseases Of
the blood. Scrofula, Eczema, Cancer,
Rheumatism, all are given the same
treatment by the physicians-mercury
and potash, and the result as above set
forth is always the same.
We offer remedy purely vegetable,
powerful in its effect, yet harmless in
every way. For fifty years S. S. S.
has been curing blood diseases, from
the most violent to the mildest case,
after all other treatment failed. 1t is
guaranteed purely vegetable, and one
thousand dollars reward is offered for
proof to the contrary. 1t is a real
blood remedy for real blood troubles,
and never fails to cure Contagious
Blood Poison, Scrofula, Eczema, Rheu-
matism, Cancer, or any other disease
OF the blood. If you have blood dis
ease, take a remedy which will not
injure you. Beware of mercury don't
do violence to your system. Don't get
bottled upl
