Of Skin Diseases

It win not be so difficult
to rid yourself of skin dis
eases IL you will but realize
that these troubles originate
in the blood, and il you ex-
pect real substantial relief
you must treat them thru
the blood. Millions Of tiny
disease germs find Judgment
in the blood, where they null
tiply rapidly and attack some
part of the surface of the
skin where there can be no
resistance.
Realize, then, that you can
know no real and genuine re-
lief until these germs are
eradicated from your blood.
SIS. has given great sat
isfaction in the treatment of
skin diseases, because it is
such a thorough blood puri-
fier. It cleanses the blood Of
all accumulations and thus
frees it of the germs that at
tack the skin.
Why not use this intelli-
gent method of treatment?
Begin today to take S.S.S.
and discard all local treat
ment which can give nothing
but temporary relief. S.S.S.
