S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the best of all tonics, nature’s medicine, made entirely of healing, cleansing, invigorating roots and herbs, a systemic remedy without an equal. S. S. S. has the additional value of being the greatest of all blood purifiers. It re-establishes the healthy circu lation of the blood, rids the body o f that tired, worn-out feeling, improves the appetite and digestion, and brin gs about a return of health to those whose systems have been weakened or depleted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and pleasantly than any other medicine, and those who are run down in health should commence its use at once. It w ill thoroughly purify the blood and tone up the system. S. S. S. is adm irably s u it »! for a systemic remedy because it is free from m in erals; it may be used without harmful results by persons of any age, and no unpleasant effects ever follow.
