No
Theory Here.

The greatest claims for S,S.S. (Swift's
Specifc) are made by those whom 1t has
cured, and after all the most valuable
reputation is one which is given by those
who speak from experience. We could
publish a page of what we claim S.S.S.
will do, but the people prefer to read
OF what 1t has done, and hence we give
the testimony Of reputable, well-kn
people in different parts of the country,
who gladly tell of how S.S.S. has cured
them OF blood diseases, after trying
other treatment in vain.
No wonder S.S.S. has such ataunch
friends. The experience of those who
take 1t to-day will be the same as Of
those who twenty years ago found II the
only cure. Blood diseases are obstinate,
and cannot be cured by one medicine
In a dozen which claims to cure them;
80 when S.S,S. Is taken with satisfactory
results, after disappointing expert
ence with other remedies, II Is not
strange that It has grateful friends BY
the score.
