It's the same story. The experience
of all sufferers with blood diseases is
identical. First the doctors are con-
suited, and their prescription of potash
and mercury is taken faithfully, but
without result. Months pass, and the
mercuria1 dose is continued, until
finally, his condition being no better,
or often worse, the patient becomes
discouraged and decides to change
treatment.
Patent medicines are then taken,
but until the right one is found the
results are the same. S. S. S. is the
only blood remedy on the market
which is guaranteed purely vegetable.
It is the only one that contains no
mercury, no potash, or other mineral,
and therefore is the only one that
promptly gets at the bottom of all
blood diseases and cures permanently.
