The sensible treatment for

from which you can expect per-
manent results is a treatment
that goes down into the blood
supply and reaches the source

wonderful blood remedy and is
the logical treatment for Rheu-
matism. because it promptly
permeates the entire blood sup
ply and searches out and climi-
mates the disease germs.
If you are a victim of Rheu-
matism. you can take S. S. S.
with the assurance that you are
not experimenting, but using a
remedy that has brought relief
to thousands who have suffered
from this painful disease. This
great old remedy has been sold
all over the United States for
more than fifty years, and has
been used with gratifying re-
suits, 1t is a great blessing for
a sufferer to become acquainted
with the powers of S. S. S., for
in this remedy is found the help
that can come only from the
proper treatment.
Many letters have been writ
ten to us by those who have
used S. S. s., telling of the good
it has done them. Their state
ments will be helpful to many
others who suffer, and we will
be glad to send you some of
these testimonials, full of this
direct evidence of the value of
S. S. S.

partment for the benefit of all

Proves Itself Master of This
Painful Disease.

Halfway treatment Of Rheu-
matism will never rid you of it.
Better realize from the outset
that when Rheumatism attacks,
you have a real battle on your
hands, and that it's mans job
to get rid of it.
Temporizing with Rheuma-
tism by the use of liniments,
lotions and other external meth
ods of treatment, is like trying
to coax an enemy to. let up in
his attacks. and permit you to
conquer him without resistance.
But you soon learn that
Rheumatism will not treat you
with this consideration. The
tiny little germs flock togeth-
er by the millions and center
their attack with undivided
force. The effects of the disease
are gradual in taking hold on the
system. In fact, the pains are
only slight at first and do not
attract your serious attention,
but they gradually increase in
severity until your entire sys-
tenn Is firmly within the grip
of the disease. 1t is then that
you have a real fight on your
hands, for you will find that
Rheumatism is a foe that knows
, Just how to cripple you, The
pains that were hardly notice
able at first, become your con-
slant companions, and seem to
take delight in your suffering,
Of course, If this painful dis
ease was on the surface only,
you might reasonably expect to
get relief by the use of surface
remedies, such as liniments and
other local applications. But
the source of the disease is your
blood, the tiny disease germs
find lodgment there and multi
ply by the millions and scatter,
by means of the blood circu-
Gation. throughout your system.
