 A few months ago was feeling weak and run down and unable to get sleep at night. felt extremely bad, and also had rheumatic pains in my joints and mus cles. The medicine I used gave me only temporary relief at best; so seeing s. S s. highly recommended for such trou- bles, began it's use, and after taking it for some time was well pleased with the result. It did away with the rheumatic pains, gave mo refreshing sleep and built up my general system, giving mo strength and energy. It is a good nedi- cine, without c doubt, and I take pleas- ure in endorsing it.
