Deep Seated Disease Caused
bU Germs in the Blood.

Rheumatism is "A sturdy
foe, and it never uses gentle
methods with its victims. So
if you are afflicted with the
disease, you may as well real
ize from the first that you
have a real fight on your
hands and that you cannot
win unless you can use the
very best methods known.
If the disease was confined
to the surface, there might
be some logic in expecting re-
lief from its clutches by local
applications applied to the
surface. But you will soon
learn that a disease that can
cause so much pain and suf-
fering is deep-seated, and has
its source far below the sur
face of the skin. The pains
may be slight at first but
that is where the victim of
rheumatism is often deceived.
He does not feel that the
first little twinges Of pain
amount to much, and hence
they are not promptly needed.
But they gradually increase
in severity until it has your
entire system in its relentless
grip. The pains that seemed SC
slight at first become in
tensely severe and seem tc
take delight in your suffer
ing,
Of course, there has beer
cases where some slight re
lief was experienced from The
use of liniments and Other
local applications, but there
has never yet been a CASE
that was actually cured b,

such treatment, ard tempor-
airy relief is very far from
comforting to a constant suf-
ferer.
The only sensible treatment
from which you can expect
real results is a remedy that
goes deep down into the blood
supply, and kills the germs
trat cause the disease, These
tiny germs multiply BY the
millions and scatter by means
of the blood circulation
throughout the entire system.
Whether they attack the
muscles, the joints, limbs or
other parts Of the body, they
are still in the blood, and will
continue spreading their tor
turing pains until eliminated
thoroughly from the blood.
S. S. S. is a wonderful blood
remedy and is the logical
treatment for rheumatism,
because it promptly permeates
the entire blood supply, and
searches out and kills the dis.
ease germs. You can take S.
S. 5. with the assurance that
you are not experimenting.
for this fine old remedy has
been in constant use for more
than 80 years, during which
time it has been giving splen-
did results. So you owe IL to
yourself to take S. S. 5. with
out delay and discard the use
of local remedies that can do
you no good.

special advice il can be OBJ
