WINTER is
LAVISH IN
SPREADING DISEASE

and the answer is easily arrived at
by little logical reasoning.
1t is quite true that practically
every one is equally exposed to the
dangers of disease. You are just as
liable to be attacked as the man or
woman sitting next to you on the
street car. 1t all depends upon the
condition of your blood supply.
If your blood is thin and i'm
poyerished and has been allowed
to reach a low state by the accu-
mutation of impurities. you have
not sufficient vitality to resist these
germ attacks and they find fertile
field in your system to spread
disease.
Your neighbor will easily resist
the identical attack because he be-
lieves in precaution. and keeps
his blood strong and vigorous and
absolutely free from all impurities
by the use of a few bottles of
S. S. S.. the standard old blood
purifier and tonic. He knows that
the source of all disease is in the
blood, and he is wise enough to
keep his blood pure at this critical
season when disease germs are
lurking everywhere.
You can enjoy the same immu-
nifty as thousands have been doing
for years. Simply go to your drug
store and ask for a bottle of
S. S. S., and take it according to
directions. You will notice an i'm
mediate tonic effect. for it will i'm
prove your vitality, and few bot
ties will make you strong and Wig
orous, and you will enjoy the
buoyancy of perfect health.
And with your system kept in
perfect condition, you will be safe
from the dangers now so prevalent.
Those who are afflicted with ca
tarrh, rheumatism, eczema. or
other blood troubles, or are in a
general rundown and debilitated
condition, can obtain valuable
medical advice from our Chief
Medical Adviser without charge.

become a real king he set sail for
Africa in a small sailing vessel ac-

his way to the desert OF Soudan he
caused to be erected a magnificent
throne of ivory studded with pearls.
Notwithstanding the limited number
