irritating, fiery acid. Rheum-
atism, Catarrh, Sores and Ul-

blood disorders will continue
to grow worse as long as the
cause remains. A disordered
condition of the blood may
come from various causes,
such as a sluggish condition
Of the system, imperfect
bowel and kidney action, in
digestion, ETC.; but whatever
the cause, the blood must be
purified before the body can
be healthy.
S. S. S. is a natural blood
purifier and tonic. 1t is made
entirely of the harmless
juices and extracts of roots,
herbs and banks of recognized
medicinal value, and being
free from all harmful min
erals is an absolutely safe
medicine for young or old.
S. S. S. goes into the circu-

riches the blood and will do
for you what it has done for
thousands of others. S. S.

at the same time a most

those whose blood has become
impoverished and needs
building up.
A course of S. S. S. will
prove to you its great eff

reported to us by grateful
patients.

Time Makes No Mistakes


We have never claimed
that S. S. S. was a medicine
to work wonders, nor one
that would cure every physi-
cal ailment or disorder. More
than fifty years ago it was
placed on the market and
recommended as a blood puri-
fier, and today, after a long
and successful career, and
when its use has become al
most universal, only the same
honest claim is made for it
that it will relieve those dis
eases and disorders arising
from an impoverished con-
dition of the blood. Time
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 generally used than
ever before, and has the con-
fidence, we believe, of a
greater number of people
than any other blood medi-
cine.
The blood is the most vital
force of life; every organ,
nerve, muscle, tissue and
sinew of the body is de-
pendent on it for nourish-
ment and strength, and as it
circulates through the sys-
TEN, pure and rich, it fur
nishes these different men,
bers the healthful properties
needed to preserve them and
enable them to perform their
various duties. So long as
the blood remains free from
infestion we are apt to escape
disease, but any impurity,
humor or poison acts injur-
iously on the system and af-
fects the general health.
Postular eruptions, pimples,
rashes. and the various skin
affections, show that the
blood is in a feverish condi-
ton as a result of some
