How to stop
OIL 8!

There's only one way to stop boils.
Stop the cause Of boils! That's COM
mon sense-isn't it? All right. Boils
thrive because the blood gets so weak
in healthy, red cells that it can't
throw off the impurities that get into
the body. There's not enough rich, red
blood to purify the system.
Now-S. S. S. builds back the blood
to fighting strength. S. S. S. builds
d-blood-cells - builds them by the
millions! Boils dry up!
S. S. S. is the thing. Impurities that
cause boils and other skin eruptions
can't stand up against the rich,
healthy, red blood that S. S. S. builds.
That's all there is to it.
Stop boils with S. S. s. It's the way.
Get it at any druggist. The larger
bottle is more economical.
