, The skin is provided with millions of little pores
aud' glands invisible to the natural eye, yet .through
these tiny outlets the larger part of the deadly matter
that daily collects iu the body is carried off. But nature
never intended that poisons of an irritating or acid
character should be eliminated through the skin, the Liver and Kidneys being their lustura'
outlets, and it is when these important organs fail to perform their functions that these ack:
poisons are absorbed into the blood and find their way to the surface of the IkkIv through the
i pores and glands of the skin, producing intense itchiug and burning, inflammation and
j swelling, and eruptions of every conceivable sie, shape and character.

I finally quit taking medicine, as the physician said the disease had
become chronic and Incurable. Having endured this tormenting tmiludv
for about 16 years, I determined to make another effort to get rid of It
and began S. S. S. In July, 1900, and continued It until November, when
I discovered, to my surprise and Joy, that not a spot could be found on
my body, which before had been almost covered with the eruption.
It has now been nearly a year since the disease disappeared, but not
a sign of It has ever returned, and I an satisfied the cure is permanent.

It is simply a matter of dollars nnd lo Iok 0e -nattir up and get the de
cents to get the best for your money I tails but depends upon the paper to

The days of vanity are passing. The
people no longer take a paper to see
their names In print. They no longer
take a newspaper because its columns
are filled. They no longer take it be
cause of its politics, except, possibly
at short periods In politcal campaigns.
The newspaper nowadays is taken for
news. News means a great deal. In I
such an event happened, they already
knew, and the item is therefore not
news.
The modern newspaper heads its ar
ticles, if they are worth a head. The
public does not wish to " wade
through" a paste of mixed up Perns,
some of them a half column In length,
to find if there is any news in the
paper. News items properly headed
enables the busy reader at a i lance
to cull out what he desires to read
and what he does not care to read.
The duty of th? newspaper .'s plain.
The public may be humbued lor a I
long time, but it will gralually make
the same treatment, which must
be constitutional and not external.
Nothing applied locally to the
inflamed surface can bring much
relief. The disfiguring eruptions
will continue to annoy and pain
you in spite of soaps, washes or powders. There is no hope of getting rid of a skin disease
except through the purification of the depreciated blood and neutralizing aud filtering out of
the circulation all poisonous substances aud acids.
The purifying and tonic properties of S. S. S. sooa manifest their influence iu skin
affections; the debilitated system is invigorated and toned up, and the gradual disappearance
of the eruptions show that the polluted blood is being brougnt back to its natural purity and
strength. Old chronic skin disorders, which have resisted all the ordinary methods of
treatment, readily yield to the curative
powers of S. S. S., and there is no reason
why the long time sufferer should feel
resigned to his fate under the mistaken
idea that some skin diseases are incura
ble, for S. S. S. has cured aud is still
curing cases perhaps far more desperate
than yours. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable
remedy, containing no Potash, .rsei.n
or any of the poisonous drugs which constitute the basis of so many so-called skin cures

Nothing tastes good. Nothing gives
pleasure. The mind is dull and slug
gish. The will is weak. Little things
cause great irritation. What's the mat
ter? The probabilities are that the
stomach is deranged and the liver in
volved. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes a man who is run down and dis
pirited feel like a new being. It aires
diseases of the stomach and other or
gans of digestion and nutrition, stirs the
sluggish liver into action, and increases
the activity of the blood-making glands,
so that there is an abundant supply of
pure, rich blood.
Mr. Edward Jacobs, of Marengo, Crawford
Co., Indiana, writes : "After three years of suf
fering with liver trouble and malaria I gave up
11 hopes of ever getting stout again, the last
chance was to try your medicine. I had tried
all the home doctor and received but little
relief. After taking three bottlea of Dr. Pierce a
Golden Medical Discovery and one vial of his
'Pleasant Pellets' I am stout and hearty. It is
due entirely to your wonderful medicines."
