Mickey" Sensational
 Hit Of Season ERialto

Mickey the sensational photoplay hit of the season, the picture that IS breaking attendance records all over the United States, will be the attraction ex- traordinary for one week only at the Rialto theatre beginning Monday
 Mickey is heralded as one of the most appealing pictures ever screened. It is the record breaking motion picture of the year because of the action and the fun that has been crowded into the hour and a half of it's narration.
 More genuine comedy is crowded into that brief space than has been seen upon the screen in sometime It is far and away the best thing Mabel Normand has ever done and this is not forgetting the days of her triumphs with the Key stone stars when she shared honors with Chaplin and the best of them. It has the sweet scent of the mountain ar for it's beginning and then it moves into

CATARRH IS
 NOT INCURABLE,

nation of the delicate mem- branes of the nose and air pas sages, which choke up and make breathing very difficult. To get rid of these distressing effects you must remove their cause.
 The blood is laden with the Catarrh germs, which direct their attack against the tender and delicate membranes of the nose and throat. These germs cannot be reached by sprays or douches, which, of course, have no effect whatever upon the blood.
 s. s. S. is a purely vegetable blood remedy, made from roots and herbs direct from the for est, which combat promptly any disease germs or impuri- ties in the blood. This great remedy has been used for more than fifty years with most sat isfactory results. It has been successfully used by those af- flicted with even the severest cases of Catarrh, because it drives out from the blood the Catarrh germs and eliminates every foreign substance from the blood. s. s. s. is sold by druggists everywhere.
 For the benefit of those af- flicted with Catarrh or other blood diseases, we maintain a medical department in charge of a specialist skilled in these diseases. If you will write us fully he will give your case careful study and write you just what your own individual case requires. No charge is made for this service.

BUT YOU CAN'T RELY % ON SPRAYS AND
 INHALERS

There is no use permitting yourself to be deceived. Per haps, like thousands of others afflicted with Catarrh, you are about ready to believe that the disease is incurable, and that you are doomed to spend the remainder of your days hawk ing and splitting, with no relief in sight from inflamed and stopped-up air passages that make the days miserable and the nights sleepless.
 Of course this all depends upon whether or not you are willing to continue the old time, makeshift methods of treatment that you and many other sufferers have used for years with no substantial re- suits. If you are still content to depend upon the use of sprays, douches, inhalers, jel- lies and other like remedies by themselves, that are applied to the surface and cannot reach below it, then make up your mind now that your Catarrh will remain a life companion and will follow you to the grave.
 You must realize that the disease itself, and not it's symp- toms, is what you have to cure. Of.course, you know that when you are cured of any disease it's symptoms will disappear. Ca tarrh manifests itself by inflam-
