Remarkable
Catarrh Cure
Gets Right into the Affected Parts
and Stops Gathering in Eyes,
Noes, Throat and Lungs.

By a long series of elaborate expert
ments at the Swift Laboratory it is def
nitely known that catarrh can be cured
by the simple process of inoculating the
blood with antidotal remedies that stop
inhammatory conditions throughout the
mucous Innings of all the organs of the
body. This is done with the famous
Swifts Sure Specific, or as it is widely
known, S. S. S. 1t is taken into the
blood just as naturally as the most
nourishing food. 1t spreads its influence
over every organ in the body. comes
through all the veins and arteries, en-
ables all mucous surfaces to exchange in
Gammatory acids and other irritating
substances for arterial elements that ef-
fectually cleanse the system and thus put
an end to all catarrhal pollution. S. S. S.
cleans out the stomach of mucous ac-
cumulations, enables only pure blood-mak-
ing materials to enter the intestines, com
bines with these food elements to enter
the circulation in less than an hour.
You will soon realize its wonderful in
fluence by the absence of headache. a de-
cided clearing of the air passages. a
steadily improved nasal condition, and
q sense of bodily relief that proves how
completely catarrh often infests the en-
tire system. You will find S. S. S. on
sale at all$drug stores at s1.OO per bottle.
1t is a remarkable remedy for any ard
all blood affections, such as eczema, rash,
lupus, letter psoriasis, boils and all scrof-
ulous conditions For special advice on
any blood disease write in confidence to
The Swift Specific Co., 127 Swift Bldg,
Atlanta. Ga. DO not delay to get bottle
of S. S. S. at your druggists.
