THE BLOOD
-
'
“ S. S. S. for the blood” has grown to be a
household saying. When the blood is out of order, or
needs treatment from any cause, this great remedy is the first thought of
and used by thousands of people all over the country, because it is superior
to all other blood purifiers. It is a purely vegetable remedy, and while it
penetrates the circulation and forces out all poison and morbid matter, it
also builds up the entire system by its fine tonic effect. During the win*
ter months the natural ave-

in g of Spring and warm weather the blood is aroused and stirred to quicker
action and in its effort to throw off these acids and poisons the skin suf­
fers. Boils, pimples, blotches, rashes and eruptions break out and con­
tinue until the blood is cleansed and made pure. S. S. S. is the ideal remedy
for this condition; it clears the blood of all impurities, makes it rich and
strong and these skin troubles pass away. Rheumatism, Catarrh, Chronic
Bores and Ulcers, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison and all other diseases
of the blood are cured by S. S. S. Book on the blood and any advice de­

One day Sir John spotted a man on
parade who astonished him by the
number of his medals. He was evi­

and swelled out his chest quite no­

“ You seem to have seen consider­

not better.
French parents under­
stand that in bringing children into
the world they undertake a responsi­

born her “ dot” is begun to be hoard­
ed up. Then when site arrives at a
marriageable age u young man of

o f thus being thrown into the arms of
a stranger, but only one. And she—
although she complains about the
want of romance of her young days—

French husbands and wives are
usually the very best o f friends ill

whatever state of life they happen to
be, and considering the bringing up

I have before me a letter received the
other day from an old friend, now a
widower, announcing the mnrriage of
one o f his two daughters. Curiously
quaint to Engl'sh ears sounds the man­
ner o f his announcement: “ Aujourd'-

I can harriiy imagine an

Of
course, during the engagement the
young man and bis “ flaneee” will not
have many opportunities o f becoming
better known to each other, as they
will never lie left for one moment
alone together. But that, as experi­
ence has proved, is no reason why
their marriage should not turn out to
be a very happy one.
