blood circulating throughout
your entire system.
In order to get permanent
relief from this dreadful dis
ease, the blood must be puri-
fled, and all irritating matter
removed from the circulation.
No remedy does this so
quickly as s. S. s., the best
blood purifier on the market
today. that has stood the test
of time with sixty years Of
success behind it, and more
popular today than it has ev-
er been before.
S. S. S. not only contains
purifying and tonic proper
ties. but solvent qualities,
and. being purely vegetable,
will not injure the system as
do medicines which contain
potash and other mineral in
gradients.
While cleansing the blood
of all poison, it builds up the
system and relieves the suf-
ferer Of the nagging pains Of
Rheumatism and is the one
remedy that is SO useful in re-
pairing the damage done by
blood diseases.
Don't wait for your trouble
to become chronic, but begin
the use of S. S. s. today and
purge the blood Of every par
ticle of the poison.
We maintain a medical de-
partment for the benefit of
all who are afflicted. and our
Chief Medical Advisor, who is
familiar with all forms of
Rheumatism, will gladly give
you advice without charge as
to treatment Of your own
case. Address Medical Di-

Nature Gives a Cry for Help
That S. s. s. Can Answer
With the Right Treatment.

This is the season when the
damp, cold, changing weather
of winter intensifies the pains
and other disagreeable symp-
toms Of Rheumatism.
Rheumatism never comes
by accident. 1t is in the
blood and system before a
pain is felt.
The symptoms of this dis
ease are almost unnoticed at
first, so insidiously do they
steal over the body; gradual
n the little pains and stiff
ness increase until they devel-
op great inconvenience day

improperly treated will be-
come chronic.
Not only is Rheumatism
the most painful of all dis
eooes, with its swollen, stiff
oints, throbbing muscles and
singing nerves, but it is a
formidable and dangerous
trouble.
Every day the poison re-
mains in the system the dis
caae gets a firmer hold and
the patient is soon left a help
less cripple.
OF course, if this painful
disease was on the surface
only, you might reasonably
expect to get relief by the use

death, assure you, MI. Stone,
she is quite clever enough to pre-
arrange all details, and to plan so
adroitly that suspicion should fall
on someone else. Miss Stuart is
far more crafty and deep than
you can have any idea of! j have
known her for four years, and I
can tell you she is far from in
genuous!"
Suppose we leave the question
of Miss Stuart out of the discus
sion, and continue our first line OF
thought. Had Miss Darlington
ever spoken to you Of changing
her will?"
As was his frequent experience,
Weming Stones quick question
caught his witness unaware, and
she stumbled a little in her speech
rs she replied: "N-no. Why
should shei"
"Only because her frequent
J quarrels with Miss Stuart might
have made her wish to leave less
of her fortune to her niece. And
in the conversation you over
heard, Miss Darlington touched
OH this subject"
Yes, she did. But except for
that reference, spoken to her un-
known companion, I have never
heard anything Of such an inten-
tion OH her part"
You're fond of pearls, Miss
Fraynei"
