SORES AlAvgzD
W GERS.

Sores and Ulcers never become chronic
unless the blood is in poor condition i
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the polsohs that accumulate in it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the sore, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and allimpurities eliminated from the sys-
tenn. SIS. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
IN. IN, .! system A CONSTANT DRAIN
effete matter. UPON The SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the sore or
ulcer heals. 1t is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
how apparently hopeless your condition,
even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
else can. 1t supplies the rich, pure blood
necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.
Mr.. J. 3. Talbert, Lock Box a45, Winona Miss,
says: Six years ago my leg from the knee to
the foot was one solid sore Several physicians
