stop fiery, itching, burning eczema by
cimply building up the red-blood-cells
in your blood with 5. s. s., you
wouldn't waste another minute trying

That's tho only way to relieve irri-
tated, broken out skin Of any sort. You
lack rich, red blood. Impurities are In
your system. The blood is so weak It
can't fight back and overcome the en-
emy, so the impurities break out
through the skin.
S. s. S. builds the blood back

The merchant names the prices of
the farmers merchandise and of his
own; the doctor charges as much for
going two miles TO see a patient as the
farmer can make in a day; and now
because the price-fixers have caused
the farmers to be unable TO square
their accounts, some are demanding
cash of us farmers. Say, give us a
square deal and pay us in proportion
to your charges. We do not mean to
be cranky, but some of you are little
thoughtless or selfish
