AN OLD
SORE
months of diligent and faithful use of external remedies that the place
remains as defiant, angry and offensive as ever. Kvery chronic sore, no
matter on what part of the body it conies, is an evidence of some previous
constitutional or organic trouble, and that the dregs of these diseases
remain in the system; or, it may be that some long hidden poison perhaps
Cancer lias come to the surface and begun its destructive work.
The blood must be purified before the sore will fill up with healthy flesh
and the skin regains its natural color. It is
through the circulation that the acrid, corroding
fluids are carried to the sore or ulcer and keep it
irritated and inflamed. S. S. S. will purify and
Invicorate the stairnnnt blood when all sediment or
other hurtful materials are washed out, fresh rich blood is carried to the
diseased parts, new tissues form, and the decaying flesh begins to have a
healthy and natural look j the discharge ceases and the sore heals.
