TO HEALTH Malaria ii an atmospheric poiaoa which we unconsciously breathe intt writings through the impure air arising from low, marshy places, stagnant ponds, damp cellars, sewer pipes, improperly ventilated houses, decaying vegetable matter, etc. Day after day these germs and poisons are taken intc the lungs, and as the blood passes through them it becomes infected with thi poison and in its circulation distributes the microbes of disease to all parti of the body. Malaria is a very insidious disease ; it gives no warning of itt coming until the circulation is filled with the poison and this foe to health has the system at its mercy. The blood becomes polluted, thin and weak anc its alow, irregular circulation fails to properly nourish and strengthen th body. Then the entire system is attacked, and if the germs and poisons o: , ..,1 Malaria are allowed to remain the strongest constitution will break down No one can feel well when the system is in a malarial condition; the vitalitj ia weak, the appetite poor, digestion deranged, the complexion growi sallow and the entire body feels the effects of the poison. Malaria must b removed from thi system through the circulation and the onlv medicine tha. can accomplish this is S. S. S. It not only cleanses the blood of all unhealthv .. morbid uittfter, but destroys the germs, cures Malaria and restores this vita! - fluid to a strong, healthy condition. S. S.
