SORES MD ULCERS
' Sores and Ulcers are indications of impure blood. They show that the
circulation has become infected with perms and poisons, which are being
constantly discharged into the open place to irritate the delicate nerves,
tissues and surrounding flesh and keep the sore in a state of inflammation
and disease. Whether these impurities in the blood are the result of some
debilitating sickness, an old taint from a former disease, or whether it is
hereditary bad blood, there is but one way to cure sores and ulcers, and that
is to purify the blood. Washes, salves, lotions, etc., are often beneficial
because of their cleansing, antiseptic effects, but nothing applied to the
surface can reach the blood, where the real cause is, and therefore cannot
cure. S. S. S. is the remedy for Bores and ulcers of every kind. It gets down
to the very bottom of the trouble and removes every trace of impurity or
poison, and makes a lasting cure. S. S. S. changes the quality of the circu
lation, so that instead of feeding the diseased parts with impurities, it
nourishes and heals the irritated, inflamed flesh and causes the ulcer to
fill in with healthy tissue by supplying it with pare, rich blood. Book
