THE PANCS OF
RHEUMATISM

This is typical case, and every
one who has had the slightest ex-
pcricnce with rheumatism will con-
tinue to suffer and grow worse un-
til they are finally practically
helpless, unless they realize that the
disease must be combatted at it's
source. Rheumatism is a diseased
condition Of the blood, the disease
attacks the body through the blood,
hence the system can be rid of its
pains only after the blood has been
cleansed of the germs of the dis
ease.
Lotions, liniments and ointments.
applied to the surface may in some
eases deaden the pain for the time
being, but until you attack the dis
ease at its foundation, you are max
ing no progress toward cure, and
you are permitting the trouble to
get firmer hold on your system
every day. This is one reason why
Rheumatism is usually permanent
disease, staying with its victims
year after year. Getting rid of the
disease is merely matter of treat
ing it intelligently. Knowing that
it cannot be cured by external ap-
plications, it is folly to rely upon
such treatment. B..
S. S. S. is without question the
most thorough blood medicine ever
made, and it promptly cleanses the
blood of every trace of impurity or
disease germs. That is why it
never fails to give satisfactory re-
suits in even the severest eases of
rheumatism Being purely vege-
table without particle of mineral
or chemical in its composition, it
wor ks by eliminating and forcing
out of the blood all Impurities and
cleansing it thoroughly, acting as
tonic to the entire system at the
same time. 1t has been in use for
more than fifty years, and thou

Cannot Be Rubbed
Away With Linilnents

You who are afflicted with this
most painful disease-who know
from experience just how excruciat-
ing it's pangs are-get this fact
fixed firmly in your mind, and it
will aid you in finding a way to a
complete recovery. Rheumatism
cannot be rubbed array mith I'M
ments,-its pains and pangs cannot
be wiped out as if by magic: A
disease that is so full of torture and
finally renders its victims so help
less, is deep-seated one; it is not
on the surface. hence it cannot be
reached by external, surface rene
dies. This is no theory, for your
own experience doubtless has shown
you that you can never expect to
rid yourself Of the disease in this
way.
For the chances are that you,
like thousands of other sufferers.
have, been misled into the hope that
liniments, lotions and other appli-
cations would cure your rheuma-
tism.s But what has been your ex-
pericnce.? The pains possibly have
been lessened for the time being,
but have they not promptly re-
turned, often with increased sever
lty, and are you really any nearer
a cure than before? You certainly
are not and you never will be as
long as you rely upon treatment
that at best is merely a makeshift.
See what Mr.. J. l.. Agnew. of
Mt. Vernon, Ohio, says of his
rheumatism: -
Fer ten years I was badly
afflicted with Rheumatism.
the pains in my knees. legs
and ankles being almost un-

was IN the blood. After taking
few bottles the pains and
soreness were greatly lessened.
