II you are down with rheumatism;

with catarrh, have a cough, or your
skin is pimpled and irritated with
rash, eczema, or any other blood dis
order, Just remember that almost all
the ills Of life come from impure

blood a good, thorough cleansing, a
bath, by using S. S. S. There is no
need for anyone to be Respondent over
the illness of blood impurities No
matter how badly they attack the
system, or how unsightly becomes the
skin, just remember there is one in
gredient in S. S. S. that so stimulates
the cellular tissues throughout the
body that each part selects its own
essential nutriment from the blood.
This means that all decay, all break
ing down Of the tissues, is checked
and repair work begins. More attention
is being given to scientific medicine
than ever before and S. S. S. is a splen-
did achievement in this line. For many
years people relied upon mercury,
iOdide of potash, arsenic, physics,
cathartics and dope" as remedies for
blood sickness, but now the pure,
vegetable S. S. S. is their safeguard.
You can get S. S. S. in any drug
