MANS GLORY is his strength MI yet how few there are who are really as strong as they should be. The blood thins, gets weaker. blood cells wear out-genera1 weakness and a gradual break down of the system results.
 We know there is one thing that puts power in the blood, and that is more red-blood-cells! S.S.S. builds them by the million! We know that as blood cells increase in number, blood impurities van- ish! But have you ever actually taken advantage of this wonderful fact? Thousands just like you have never thought of 1t. So-called skin eruptions = pimples, boils, blackheads, eczema all pack up and go when the tide of blood cells begins to roll in. Blood cells are the fighting giants of Nature. S.S.S. Is one of the greatest blood cell builders, blood cleansers and body builders, known to us nor tals. Here is your opportunity S.S.S. contains only vegetable me. dicinal ingredients. Because S.S.S. does build red.blood-cells, it routs rheumatism, builds firm flesh, fills out hollow cheeks, beau- tifies the complexion, builds you up when you are rundown.
 Start taking S.S.S. today and get back that power in your blood!
