•r. y* . ^ iltetaiksrL ■ * CONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISON Contagious Blood Poison more thor oughly poisons the Mood than an}’ othei disease. Every part of the body is af fected when the virus becomes intrenched in the circulation; red eruptions break out on the skin, the mouth and throat ulcerate, glands in the neck and groins swell, the hair falls out, copper-colored splotches appear on the body, etc I was afflicted with blood poison, and the best doctors did me no good, though I took their treatment faithfully. In fact I seemed to get worse all the while. I took almostevery so-called blood rem edy, but they did not seem to reach the disease, and had no effect whatever. 1 was disheartened, for it seemed that 1 would never be cured. At the advice ol a friend! then took S. S. S. and began t( improve. I continued the medicine, and it cured me completely. Hamlet, N. C. W. R. NEWMAN. / So highly contagious is this disease that many a life has been ruined by a friendly hand shake or from using the toilet articles of one affected with the poison. To cure this hideous and hate ful disease a constitutional remedy is re quired. S. S. S. goes down to the very root of the trouble and forces out every j particle of the virus from the -blood and i cures the disease permanently. S. S. S. j is purely vegetable and drives out the Ixo uble, root and branch, and no signs of it are ever seen again. Those who have been cured bv PURELY VEGETABLE. S. S. S. can feel assured that none of the poison is left in the blood to transmit to innocent offspring. The en tire body is built up and the blood made pure, rich and healthy by this great rem edy.

Advices from Pekin published by Japanese vernacular papers received by the empress of China state that w’hen the empress dowager of China returned hastily from her summer pal ace the cause of the bomb outrage at Pekin palace, she summoned the emperor and asked what be knew of the outrages, whereupon the emperor shoved much confusion. At a signal from the empress a par ty of guards appeared and led the emperor to a hall, where he has been since confined, no one Paving access to him and his food being thrust In through a window.
