While engaged in cutting bushes

stung about the head and face several
times by wasps which he disturbed.
But little attention was paid to the
sung Of the insects at the time. and
the negro continued his work. A short
while afterwards, however, he began
IT, feel pains in his head, neck and
arms, and, as they grew worse, he was
finally forced to go home. The pains
increased in severity during the after
noon and DR., Lewis Of Graves was
summoned, who gave the man some re-
lies by injecting a narcotic.
Or. Lewis returned Thursday and
found the patient still suffering and I'M
able to speak above a whisper. He had
no fever, and only complained of pains

another visit, Salter was unconcious

when he arrived the pulse of the man

Dr. Goneke, upon noticing the negroes
symptoms and hearing a history of the
case, decided that he might possibly
have paralysis and proceeded to test
this theory. Pins were stuck in the

upon him and he seemed perfectly in

Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication of a con-
dition of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost unbearable. 1t is
a mistake to think that this local irrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence of disordered condition of the
blood. . The seat of the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salves
and ointments usually applied have no
effect whatever. They cannot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only a
blood remedy can do that. S. S. S. is
without an equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all taint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
a course ofS.S.S. taken promptly, as APP
parently insignificant skin irritations
usually develop into the worst form
of Eczema unless properly treated.
1t matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, S. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease. and
forces it out.
