The symptoms of an impover-

promptly recognized. You feel cas-
lily tired. your appetite lags, your
energy relaxes, and before you
hardly realize it a general run
down, sood-for-nothing feeling takes
possession of your whole body.
1t is just such a condition that
invites danger, for when your sys-
tenn is in this condition. you are
less able to resist disease.
Right here is where a few bot
ties of S. S. S. will prove of such
value. for this purely vegetable,
reliable old blood purifier will build
up and re-vitalize your blood sup
ply, and put your system in excel

for half century, and is regarded
as one of the most reliable blood
purifiers and system-builders ever
