Time Makes No Mistakes.

We have never claimed that
S. S. S. was a medicine to work
wonders, nor one that would cure
every physical ailment or disorder.
More than fifty years ago it was
placed on the marke' and recon-
mended as blood purifier. and to-
day, after a long and successful
career, and when its use has be-
come almost universal. only the
same honest claim is made for it
that it will relieve those diseases
and disorders arising from an i'm
poverished condition of the blood.
lime makes no mistakes, and the
very best recommendation of S. S.
S. is the fact that it has stood a
long test and is now more gen.
orally used than ever before, and
has the confidence, we believe, of
greater number of people than
any other blood medicine.
The blood is the most vital force
of life; every organ. nerve, mus
Gle, tissue and sinew of the body
is dependent on it for nourishment
and strength. and as it circulates
through the system. pure and rich,
it furnishes these different mem
bers the healthful properties need
ed to preserve them and enable
them to perform their various du-
ties. So long as the blood remains
free from infection we are apt to
escape disease, but any impurity,
humor or poison acts injuriously
on the system and affects the gen.
eral health.
Pustular eruphons, pimples,
rashes and the various skin af-
fections. show that the blood is
in a feversh condition as a result

Why hyACID-STOMACH Must

Trace the disease to its source Then remove the
cause. Physicians say that than 70 non-organc
diseases can be traced directly to Acid-Stomach or
hyperacidity they call it. Besides this there are
numerous ailments which can hardly be classified as
true diseases but which, nevertheless cause untold
suffering, and these too found to have their origin
in ACID-STOMACH.
Now there must be good and sufficient reason.
why so much human misery, suffering and Ill health
that affect practically every part of the body all get
their start in a sour, gassy belchng, Acd.Stomach

Because of excess acdty acd-stomach cannot prop
