A SAFE MD BELI&BLE BLOOD PURIFIEB In the time of our forefathers the forests and fields were the only labor atories from which they could procure their medicines. They searched out and compounded the different roots, herbs and barks into remedies, many of waicu have been banded down to succeeding generations, and continuously used with satisfactory results. Among the very bestof these old time prep- arations is S. S. S., a medicine made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, in such combination as to make it the greatest of all blood purifiers. This absolute vegetable purity of S. S. S. makes it the one medicine that may be used without fear of harmful results In any way. Most blood medicines on the market contain mercury, potash, or some other strong mineral. These act with bad effect on the system, upsetting the stomach, interfering with the digestion, affecting the bowels, and when used for a prolonged period of time often cause salivation. No such effects ever result from the use of S. S. S , and it may be taken by children as safely as by older people. For Rheumatism. Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, Malaria. Scrofula, Skin Diseases, and all other troubles caused by impure or poisoned blood, S. S. S. is a per fect remedy. It goes down into the circulation and removes all poisons, impurities, humors or unhealthy matter, and makes the blood pure and rich. It eliminates every particle of the taint of inherited blood trouble, purifies and Strengthens the weak. drtm-inratMl Mnul at. xtoKliat... v. .. ' good health. S. S.
