AS the Lion is Monarch of
the Forest, so S. S. S. is King
of Blood Purifiers and Mas
ter over all Blood diseases.
Pure, rich blood and a free
circulation is the surest pre-
vention against the diseases
and disorders which are con-
stantly attacking our physical
systems. Healthy blood slim
ulates the excretory members
and enables them to filter out
of the system everything that
is not necessary or beneficial
to the growth and develop
ment of the body. Thus we
are apt to remain healthy I'M
less there is a weakening Of
the vital fluid or an impure
infection of the circulation.
Imperfect blood takes war;
ious forms in its outward
manifestation. A wea k,
watery circulation denotes
anaemia with its attendant
evils of pale, waxy complex
ions, malarial conditions, or
perhaps some more definitely
marked disorder is shown.
Frequently the blood becomes
infected with acrid humors,
and Eczema, letter, Acne, or
some other skin affection
makes its appearance, while
an excess of uric acid in the
circulation produces Rheuma-
tism with its pains and aches.
Old Sores and Ulcers are like
wise dependent on bad blood,
these places being kept open
and in a state of irritation by
the drainage of pollution

which diSordered blood con-
stantly discharges into them.
Another common indication
of weak, impure blood is the
loss of appetite, tired, worn
)out feeling and a general run
down condition of the system.
This is an ailment very prev
alent in the Spring and most
persons so afflicted realize the
necessity of overcoming the
trouble by the use of tonic.
We recommend to all in
need of a blood purifier or
tonic, the use of S. S. S., a
medicine which has proven
itself the greatest of all blood
purifiers. 1t goes down into
the circulation and removes
all impurities, humors and
poisons and makes the blood
pure and Notwithstanding. 1t
purifies and strengthens weak
deteriorated blood, supplies it
with the healthful properties
it needs and lays the founda-
ton for good health. AS a
tonic S. S. S. has no equal
and those who are beginning
to feel the need of such a
medicine to fortify themselves
against the unpleasant condi-
tons which come with Spring
and early Summer, should
commence its use at once. S.
S. S., the King of Blood Puri-
fiers, is a genuine blood clean
ser, made entirely from roots,
herbs and banks; it does not
contain a particle of mineral
in any form. You could not
do better than begin the use
of S. S. S. if from any cause
your blood is weak or impure,
and you will find it the most
satisfactory tonic you ever
used. Write for book on the
blood and any medical advice.
No charge for either. Ad-

MOST BRILLIANT WOMAN"
 TO SPEAK IN PRESCOTT

"We gre sending to the people of Prescott one of the most brilliant women in the country" wrote Hamp Williams, federal food administrator for Arkansas, to County Food Admin istrator Young today.
 ''It would be a shame not to get out big audience to hear her. Shi is a speaker of note. She will give your people a message on the import ance of food in winning the present war;. the like of which you have not heard since our government entered the present great struggle. I know the people of your town are patriotic. 1 know they will do their part, and part of the part they are now called upon to do is to turn out the night Mrs. Hale speaks there and hear what she has to say. The message she brings is considered by officials of the Food Administration as one of the most vital and important being de- livered by any one, and members of your patriotic societies, the Red Cross Navy League, Liberty Bond and Thrift Stamp organizations, city and county officials, those engaged in the Third Profitable Farming campaign every one, in fact, whose heart is with their government, ought to be on hand and hear Mrs. Hale
 Club women all over the state have been clamoring for her, but l have given her to your town, and now you see that your people receive her, mack her welcome and give her such an audience as she will never forget. Put this meeting over the top, so that when she returns and makes her report to Washington she can truly say that your people were the best ever in attendance, en- thusiasm and patriotism"
 Judging from the interest mani fested in this coming treat, there will be great crowd out to hear Mrs. Hale. Her work in the interest of progressive movements for women has endeared her to the club women of this town already, and Prescott, it can be safely stated, will not be lack ing in hospitality and enthusiasm when she gets here. And here's an- other thing to bear in mind. This lecture is free. No admission and no collection, and don't think because Mrs. Hale is member of the "gentler sex" she cannot speak. She is a wonderful speaker.
