No other remedy has given such perfect satisfaction as a blood purifier and tonic or is so reliable in the cure of blood dis eases of every character as S. S. S. It is known as “The King of Blood Purifiers,” and the secret of its success and its right to this title is because “IT CURES LftSSASL*" It is an honest medicine, made entirely ol purifying liealing roots, herbs and barks, which are acknowledged to be specifics for diseases arising from an impure or poisoned condition of the bl< and possessing tonic properties that act gently and admirabl down, weakened or disordered condition of the system. One of the greatest points in favor of S. S. S. is that it is market which does not contain a mineral ingredient of some ! system. It is the one medicine that can be taken with absolut or the oldest member of the family, and persons who have al such condition that most medicines are repulsive to the stomach will find that S. S. S., while thorough, is gentle and pleasant in its action, and has none of the nauseating effect! of the different mineral mixtures and concoctions offered as blood purifiers. As every part of the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and strernnh it is necessary that this vital fluid be kept free from germs and poisons. So Ion uncontaminated we are fortified against dis ease, and health is assured ; but an y impurity, humor or poison acts injuriously on the sys tem and affects the general health. Pus tular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections show that the blood is in a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison etc., are all deep-seated blood disordeis that continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains. But all blood diseases are not acquired; some persons are born with an hereditary taint in the blood and we see this great affliction manifested in many ways. The skin has a waxy, pallid appearance, the eyes are often weak, glands of the neck enlarged, and as the taint has been in the blood since birth the entire health is usually affected. . In all blood troubles S. S. S. lias proved itself a perfect remedy and has well earned the title of “KING OF BLOOD PURIFIERS.” It goes down into the circulation and removes all poisons, humors, waste or foreign matter, and makes this stream of life pure and health- sustaining. No’h ; ni’ reaches inherited blood troubles like S. S. ; it removes every particle of the taint, punlit ■ and strengthens the weak, deteriorated blood, .aid supplies it with the healthful pro; ’ties it needs and establishes the ^ foundation for good health. As a tonic this ™ great medicine has no equal, and it will be found PURELY VEGETABLE especially bracing to weak, anaemic persons.' Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison and all other blood troubles are cured perma nently by S. S. S., and so thorough is the cleansing of the blood that no trace of the dis ease is left to break out in future years or to be transmitted to offspring. If you are in need of a blood purifier get “THE KING” of them all. S. S. S.—and good results are assured. ' Book on the blood and auy medical advice desired furnished without charge to all who write.
