A MILD CASE.

OF Contagious Blood Poison never exis-
ted. It is always bad, though sometimes
no external symptoms of the disease APP
pear for lona ne.
Because the se is slow in devel-
oping does not indicate that the case is
q mild one, for the poisonous virus at
work in the blood and system may be
spending its force upon some internal
vital organ while you are looking for ex-
terna1 signs. Contagious Blood Poison
does not affect all alike. In most cases
the first little sore is quickly followed by
painful swellings in the groins, red
eruption upon the body, sores or ulcers
in the mouth and throat, unsightly copper
colored blotches, loss of hair and eye
brows and other symptoms of this miser-
able disease. When the poison is thus
fighting its way to the surface, exposing
the disease in all its hideousness, we call
It bad case; but Contagious Blood Poi
son, whether working internally or exter-
nally, is dangerous, treacherous disease.
S. S. S. is the only remedy that cures
Contagious Blood Poison thoroughly AID
permanently. 1t is an antidote for the
deadly virus that produces the awful
eruptions, sores and ulcers, and destroys
the bones. Mercury and Potash dry up
the skin eruptions, but in SO doing drive
the poison further into the system, where
it SAUNDERS for time, but comes back
again with redoubled fury.
S. S. S. is a vegetable remedy that has
been used successfully for years in treat
ing this vile diseaseand

is liable to break out again at any time.
A course of S. S. S. will remove every
trace of poison and at the same time
build up your general health.

with local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease. Ca
tarrh is a blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you must
take internal remedies. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally and
acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not
a quack medicine. 1t was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years, and is a regular
prescription. 1t is composed of the
best tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting directly
on the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingredients
is what produces such wonderful re-
suits in curing catarrh. Send for tes-
