PURELY VEGETABLE
THE ONE. SAFE BLOOD REMEDY

It is a generally recognized fact
hat medicines taken from the botan-
cal kingdom are better adapted to
he delicate human system, and safer
n every way than those composed OF
strong mineral mixtures. Among
he very best and safest Of vegetable
preparations is S. SIS, a blood med
zine made entirely OF roots, herbs and
oarks, in such combination as to
make it the greatest OF all blood purl-
hers and the finest of all toiics.
5. S, S, does not contain the least
particle Of mineral in any form, and
is an absolutely safe nedicinefor any
one to use. While purifying the
blood, this great vegetable remedy
builds up every portion of the system.
5. S. S. cures rheumatism, Catarrh,
Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases,
Scrofula, Constitutional Blood Dis
eases, and all impurities and morbid
conditions of the circulation. 1t is
perfectly reliable and safe for children;
aud little ones who have been weak
ened with scrofulous affections or
other inherited blood troubles, can
take this mild vegetable remedy with
good results and without the slightest
danger. S. SIS. is unequalled as a
tonic; it invigorates every portion OF
the system, and the healthy blood it
creates largely assists in overcoming
any arrangement OF the stomach
and digestive system. If you need q
blood medicine you could do no better
than to take SIS S. 1t has been in
use for more than forty years and is
still recognized as the best. Book~op
