GENTLEMEN when / wrote you
the latter part of December, my
mother was, according to the honest
belief of three physicians, on her
deathbed; she could not retain either
food or medicine on her stomach, and
it did not seem reasonable to think
there was anything but death to re-
lieve her. The doctors informed US
she had a cancer in the lower bowel
and there was no cure for her. She
showed such vitality for q person to
be so near death we thought there
must be something to help her, and
reading of others being saved by the
use of your S. s. S., we thought it
would do no harm, if not some good,
to try it, SO we informed her OF her
formed US, and left it with her to try
your remedy or not, as she saw fit.
She concluded to try it and from the
first desc or two, she began to brighten
up, and improve: she can now get up,
dress and help herself, and can eat
everything or anything she wants and
no distress from it. We all feel quite
hopeful that the cancer will pass away
in due time by the use of your 8. 8. s.,
which she will now gladly take. You
may make this letter as public as you
choose, and the more so the better, -
too much praise can not be given your
valuable remedy.
Yours truly,
GEO. L. CRosaRovx.

Internal
Cancers,

We have numerous inquiries in re-
gard to S. s. S. in cases of internal
cancers, such as cancer Of the womb,
stomach and bowels. When the dis
ease attacks these organs, the doctors
generally admit that it is incurable.
We make no boast of what S. S. S. will
do in such cases, as the following let
tiers we feel are worth more than vol
umes of claims that we might make.
Read them carefully:

GENTLEMEN will you kindly mail
me your book on blood poison, skin
diseases and cancer? My mother, 20
to IS years of age, has cancer in the
rectum. Two of our best doctors here
have given her up, and say the sooner
she dies the better for herself, and il
she lives long she will die in agony.
While I do not know that they are
wrong in their opinions, am not sat-
isfied with them, and believe your
S. S. S., if it does not cure her, will at
least relieve her SO she will die peace
fully. 1 got her started on your
S. S. s. yesterday, and what want of
your book is points as to bathing or
injecting. Will be pleased to hear
from you soon.
