I have tried a number ot physicians, but without receiving any permanent beaeflc Among the number were one or two specialists. The medicine they applied was like fire to tha sore, causing Intense pain. I saw a statement In the papers telling what S. S. 3. had done for others similarly afflicted. I procured some at onco. Before I had used the second bottle the neighbors could notice that my cancer wu healing up. 2Iy general health had been bad for two or threo years Ihad a hacking cough and spit blood continually. I had a severs pain In my breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. my cough left me and I grew stouter than I had been for several years. My cancer has healed overall but a little spot about the size of a half dime, and It Is rapidly disappear ing. I would advlso every one with cancer to glvoS. 6. S. a fair trial. Mrs. NANCY J.
