Thrown

1t matters not from what cause the
blood becomes poisoned, it is impossi-
BILE for the doctors to effect cure.
This class of disease has puzzled the
science of medicine for ages, and the
same treatment that was employed
centuries ago is now prescribed. Pot
ash and mercury are the component
parts of every doctors prescription
for diseases of the blood.
Many of the so-called blood puri-
fiers are based on potash and mercury.
In fact, S. S. S. (Swift's Specific) is
the only blood remedy that is guar
anteed purely vegetable, and is the
only one that contains no harmful
ingredients. S. S. S. is the only blood
remedy that cures real blood diseases,
obstinate cases that physicians and
other remedies have failed to cure.
1t never fails to cure blood disease
no matter how deep-seated the Case.

orally needed while the languid, ex-
hausted feeling prevails, when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the need Of a

long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No

Free Cure For Men.
A MICHIGAN MAN OFFERS TO
SEND HIS DISCOVERY FREE.
Claims to be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

Claims to be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.
There Is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free
but sometimes a man so .overfiOws with
generosity that he cannot rest until his
discovery is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this princi-
pie that resident of Kalamazoo, Mich,
desires to send free to mankind pre-
scription which will cure them of any
form Of nervous debility; relieves them OF
all the doubt and uncertainty which such
men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. As
it costs nothing to try the experiment it
would seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
deeply interested in a remedy which will
restore them to health, strength and
vigor. without which they continue to
live an existence of untold misery. As
the remedy in question was the result Of
many years research as to what combi-
nation would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need,
it would seem that all men suffering with
any form of nervous weakness ought to
write for such remedy at once. A re-
quest to III. G. Odds, Box 1922, Kala-
mazoo, Michigan, stating that you are
not sending for the prescription out Of
idle curiosity, but that you wish to make
use of the medicine by giving il a trial.
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came
from.
The prescription is sent free. and al
though some may wonder how Mr. Odds
IAN afford to give away his discovery
there is no doubt about the offer being
genuine. Cut this out and send to Mr.
nlds that he may know how you came to
write him.

Mr.. II. Kuhn, of Marion, Kansas;
writes:
about three years ago my grand
daughter Bertha Wildwood, was
thrown from a horse, receiving
wound of the scalp. Under the treat
ment of physicians the wound seemed
obstinate, and for several months re-
manned about the same, until it finally
became very angry looking, and broke
out into a running sore. This soon
spread to other parts of the scalp, and
ran down the side of the neck, in
creasing in severity, and fearfully
disfguring her.
after being constantly under a
physician for year, and her condi-
ton great deal worse than at first,
we placed her under the care of the
faculty of a wellknown hospital, but
even the treatment she received there
failed to arrest the terrible sore. .
"Reading of the many cures of
blood troubles effected by S. S. S., we
decided to try it, and it relieved her
promptly. A first this remedy seemed
to increase the discharge, forcing out
the poison; this soon ceased altogether,
and the place began to heal. In a
few months she was entirely cured,
and scarcely a mark now remains
where the disease held full sway"
S. S. S. is the right remedy for all
blood diseases, and is the only cure
for Contagious Blood Poison, Scrofula,
Eczema, Cancer, Rheumatism, Ca
tarrh, ETC., no matter how deep-seated
the case. s. S. S. il guaranteed
