CATARR

Sf>
Just because you hawk and spit and
your nose is wet, cold, red, sore and
a nuisance, don't merely plug it up.
You can't cure catarrh by greaSing
your nose. Take S. S. S. regularly
and you will drive catarrhal pOiSonS
out of your blood. The membranes
will soon recover and no longer con-
tnue TO accumulate the mucous that
gathers and thickens into catarrh.
S. S. S. stimulates the cells of the It's
sues to select from the blood their own
essential nutriment. Rapid recovery
from catarrhal inflammation in the Stom-
ach, kidney, bladder and all MEM
branes is the result.
MALARIA.
Throughout the country, wherever
malaria abounds, are happy, joyful
people to whom S. S. S. has given won
derful help in the treatment of mala-
ria after the most sickening torture
imaginable.
The gaunt complexion of malaria's
victims, the chills and fever, the ma
larial dysentery that seems to defy all
other treatment, the malarial leg, the
enlarged liver, the persistent anemia
where the blood turns to water and
the system wastes away. These are
the conditions that S. S. S. so effectu-
ally ASSISTS in overcoming, by helping
to restore the blood to its natural vigor.
STUBBORN SORES
Sometimes sore spot becomes indo-
lent The tissues surrounding it lose
tone and are unable to provide suffi-
cient nutriment to stop the drain. 1t
is then chronic. Just saturate your
blood with S. S. S. This is quickly
accomplished, as S. S. S. is naturally
assimilated the same as milk or any
other hea1thful liquid.
Nature acts with marvellous rapidity
when given the proper assistance, and
S. S. S. so stimulates cellular activity

TENTH EPISODE
THE LIVING DEAD

"Pm opposed to your plan, sir"
Enoch Golden declared with heat, land
I always will be opposed to it,"
David Manley, as he stared across
the table at the ruffied old millionaire,
stried to control himself to patience.
But you acknowledge that you are
equally opposed to Legar's intrusions
into this house, to having his secret
agents planted about at your elbows.
But when work out plan that offers
a reasonable promise of trapping Le-
gar and his men, you stop the whole
business by declaring it's lacking in
dignity"
Dignity is something which depart
ed from this house the day Legar first
forced his way into it," was Golden's
bitter retort.
Precisely" cried young Manley.
"His whole campaign has been one of
intimidation, Of threats and assaults
and reprisals. They have been try
ing to fight US with terror. So my
contention is, why not give them a
dose of their medicine? Why not
fight them with their own weapons.
and in doing so, perhaps go them one
better?"
But 1 can only repeat my convic-
tons that your plan can't succeed"
protested the tremulous-voiced old
financier.
