SKIN DISEASES ACNE, TETTEP., ECZEMA, Dear Sirs—My body broke out with a rash or eruption which in spite of all efforts to cure continued to get worse. The itching, especially at night, was simply terrible; it would almost disappear at times, only to rot urn worse than ever. I had tried many highly recommended prepa rations without benefit, and hearing of S. S. S. determined to give it a fair trial, and was inexpressibly delighted when a few bottles cured me entirely, removing every blemish and pimple from my body I shall not fail to rec ommend S. S. S. whenever an opportunity occurs to do so. . Escondido, Cal. L. MARNO. There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burn- P S 0 R I A ? * S ing skin disease, and upon the retura of warm weather those who are afflicted with skin troubles find the symptoms appear- RHEUi^l ing and know that they will be tormented through the hot * summer months. The blood is heated with humors and acrid matter, and as they are forced to the surface the skin seems to be on fire. The treatment of skin diseases with exter nal applications is all wrong, because they do not reach the trouble which is in the blood. The most such treatment can be expected to do is, allay the itching and burning and cover up the trouble for awhile, but as soon as it is left off the disease returns. All food taken into the body contains, in some form, the elements necessary to sustain the different parts. One portion is used for the making of blood, another for muscle, THE ITCH1NG WAS ALMOST unbearable., one for bone, still another for fat, and soon. After these different properties are ex tracted from the food there still remains a portion that is useless, or waste matter, which is intended to be disposed of through the natural channels of bodily waste, the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels. At this season of the year, however, these organs become torpid, dull and sluggish, and fail to perform this duty, and these accumulations remain in the system and are absorbed by the blood to ferment and sour, producing burning acids and acrid humors. The blood cannot properly nourish the system while in this impure condition, and begins to throw off these acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Acne, Eczema, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin diseases of every description. ECZEMA appears usually with a slight redness of the skin, followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, arms, legs and face, though other parts of the body may be afflicted. In TETTER the skin dries, cracks and bleeds, and is often very painful. The acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, causing a dry, feverish, hardened condition and giving it a leathery appearance. ACNE makes its appearance on the face in the form of pimples and black-heads, and is particularly disagreeable because of its unsightly appear ance, while PSORIASIS, a scaly disease, comes in patches on different parts of the body. One of the worst forms of skin disease is SALT RHEUM, It discharges a watery fluid, form ing sores and producing intense itching. The head and face are the parts usually affected, and sometimes the hair falls out and a mass of sores forms on the scalp. These and all skin diseases are due to the same cause—burning acids and humors in the blood, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they will continue. The best treatment for all skin diseases is S. S. S., a remedy that is purely vegetable, being made en tirely from roots, herbs and barks, and acts directly on the lVvkI with a cleansing, healing effect. It neutralizes the acids and purifies the blood so tin > the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a si It goes down into the circulation and forces out every pnrtiel builds up the blood a id c ly of cooling, healthy blood, of waste or foreign matter, . re: s all skin diseases promptly and permanently. S. S. S. does not leave the least par ticle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely rids the blood of the cause for all skin diseases. S. S.

Salisbury. N. C.. Nov. 13.—An in vestigation at the Southern Express company of this place was carried on yesterday by the officials and the re sult was given out today. It appears that a number of money bags contain ing something like $1,000 are missing from the office of the company. To add to the mystery comes the disappearance of the young night money clerk, employed by the com pany, W. S. Gray who has not been seen or heard from since Sunday. Superintendent Sadler, of Charlotte, was hero yesterday, but returned to Charlotte today. Suspicion of the theft rests strong ly on the head of young Gray, al- thoneh up to this time he has been considered highly trustworthy. Gray is between the ages of 17 and 18 and is originally of Greensboro, where he came from a good family. No trace of him has yet been found but the matter Is still being looked into.
