You Can Defy Disease
IL Your Blood is Pure

that strong, virle robust vitality
that keeps the system in perfect con-
dition to resist the attacks of disease
that everyone is subject to.
BY keeping the blood purified and
the circulation strong and vigorous,
the system more easily wards off dis
ease. This can be done by everybody
by the use of a few bottles of S. S. S..
the great vegetable blood medicine
S. S. S. routs out all impurities and
revitalizes the blood and gives new
strength and a healthy, vigorous vi
tality. Go to your drug store and
get a bottle to-day, and if you need
any medical advice, you can obtain
same without cost by writing to

Keeping your blood supply up to
the standard of perfect purity, is like
building an impregnable fortress
around the system, to protect it
from the insidious enemy of disease.
Thus you are assured of a strong and
vigorous vitality that means perfect
health.
When impurities creep into the
blood supply, there is a loss of en-

are easily tired and find the body
weakening under ordinary tasks, all
of which means that you are losing

Newspapers in every section of

that they are filled with an album

the same time, minded, kind

thing at which he strikes is evil as
he sees it. It is the institution

There may be those in his audi

that DR.. Swadener says, but they
will all give him acknowledge

fearlessness, while all who do a
gree heartily with what he says
will also say that there is no more
