When the system gets debilitated and in a
run-down condition it needs a tonic and there has never
been one discovered that is the equal of S. S. S. It is especially adapted for
a systemic remedy, because it contains no strong minerals to derange the
stomach and digestion, and affect the liver and bowels. It is made entirely
of roots, herbs and barks selected for their purifying and healing qualities,
and possesses just the properties that are needed to restore to the body
strong robust health. When the blood becomes impure and clogged with
waste matters and poisons
