results, and then to Mt. Clements, the

treatment partially helped me, but the
disease shortly returned. went to
Florida, thinking that a change of eli
mate and water and the citron fruit
might cure me, but found no cure.
VI then tried S.S.S.and after three days

For real blood diseases relief can only

Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication of 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 permanentlycur Eczema
and removes all faint.
Much torture could be avoided if the
first itching symptoms were needed and
course OF SIS. taken promptly, as ap-
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.

Angus Williams, prosperous farmer
living near Allendale, Barnwell county,
has applied an original plan for extermin.
ating lnothers-in.law. Saturday he
drove his wife and her mother, Mrs.
Burnett, to Allendale. Before leaving he
visited the dispensary, got quite happy
ana took supply of one y home. BY
the time he got there Williams was quite
intoxicated. His wife was sick, and ask.
irg her mother to look after supper, went
TO bed. Williams, enraged at his wifes
ron appearance at the table, went in her
room and began abusing her. Mrs. Bur.
rett ihterfered, when her son-in-law at.
tempted literally to eat her up, but she
was two hundred FOUNDER, and soon had
Williams down and was choking him.
Her daughter pleaded for mercy, SO Mrs.
Burnett relaxed her hold on Williams
throat The now thoroughly enraged
man renewed the attack, tearing at the
woman's arms and shoulders and throat
with his teeth, decorating her terribly.
The attending physician says the woman
is in critical condition and that blood
poisoning Is almost sure to result. The
neighborhood is deeply stirred and Will
