Powdered Sulphur

Powdered sulphur, or as it is technically
called, flowers of sulphur" is valuable
remedial agent. Who doesn't remember
the old fashioned sulphur and molasses Civ
en- in the spring 20 purify the blood. And
it was valuable remedy too. But the form
of sulphur makes it hard of assimilation
makes it hard to get even small quantity
OF the sulphur into the blood. The greater
part of the flowers of sulphur taken into the
stomach is undigestcd and passes out with
out doing any good whatever. The very
little that is assimilated does great good
considering its quantity.S For this reason
physicians and scientists have for years tried
to find some way of holding sulphur in Iq-
uid solution SO that all of it could be assim-
Hated And taken into the blood or when ap-
piled externally to sores, etc. be absorbed
into the skin. Littell's Liquid Sulphur
accomplishes this with absolute perfection.
1t is assimilated perfectly and every part
icle of it gets into the blood with not one of
the wonderful sulphur curative and medi-
cinal properties changed or lessened. APP
piled externally it is rapidly and readily
absorbed and actually brings the sulphur
into contact with the germs of suppuration,
modification, decay or disease which it
rapidly destroys. Littell's Liquid Sulphur
stops itching instantly and permanently re-
lieves all forms of skin complaint, eczema,
erysipelas, pimples, running sores, letter,
ring worm, chaps, roughness, redness, or
skin blotches. Sample bottle sent post paid

CATARRH A GERM DISEASE.
Success of Hyomei Guaranteed by
Hood & Curtin.

Catarrh is not blood disease,
but is caused by germs that lodge
and grow in the air passages, caus-
ing irritation with poisonous and
offensive mucous discharges. 1t is an
insidious disease of most destructive
tendency. It's approaches are I'M
alarming, and its victims are we'll
on the road to chronic state or to
dread consumption before they real
ize their danger.
Stomach dosing is ineffective in
the treatment of catarrh. The only
healing agent is Hyomei, which is in
hailed with the air you breathe, kill
ing all catarrhal germs and driving
them from the system.
The sooner you use Hyomei the
sooner you will be free of catarrh
Hood & Curtin will sell you a dollar
outfit with the understanding that
if it does not give satisfaction your
money will be refunded. 1853
