Ever have
ECZEMA?

Hope you never did-hope you
never will. OF all the awful itch
ing, burning, agonizing breakings
out of the skin, eczema is the
worst. It's terrible. You know it,
too, if you have it. Makes you
miserable all over-just tears your
nerves to pieces-embarrasses you
and lowers your efficiency.
But listen! You can stop &C.
zema! S. s. s. does it. The blood
is where the real trouble is. Poor
blood and eczema go together.
Lack Of healthy, rich, red blood
allows impurities to get into the
system and break out through the
skin. That's eczema.
S. s. s. puts the blood back in
fighting trim-puts the pep" back
in the blood. Red-blood-cells de-
story the impurities purify the
system. Eczema, boils, pimples,
blotches, blackheads, rashes and
other skin eruptions vanish-leav-
Ing the skin clear, cool and healthy.
Thousands have dried up &C.
zema with s. s. s. Just try it. Get
S. S. s. at your druggist. Ask him
for the larger bottle. It's more
economical.
