fi. 'I '. . t Scrofula Ji Is a deep-seated blood disease which 11 the mineral nristares in the world cmnnot cure. S.S.S. (guaranteed purely vegetable ) is a rr7 blood remedy for blood diseases and has do equal. Mrs. Y. T. Buck, of Delaney. Ark., had Scrofula for twenty-five years and most of the time was under the care of the doctors who could not relieve her. A specialist said he could cure her, but he filled her with arsenic and potash which almost ruined her constitution. She then took nearly . . a every so-caiiea oiooa , medicine and drank , them by the wholesale, but tney did not reacn '.her trouble. Some 4J?' one advised her to try " S.S.S. and she very soon found that she had a real Mood remedy at last. She says: "After tak ing one doien bottles of S.S.S. I am nerfectlv well, mv skin is clear and healthy and I would not be in my former condition for two thousand dollars. Instead ol drying upmepoison in my system, like the potash and arsenic, S.S.S. drove the disease out through the skin, and I was perma nently rid of it." A Real Blood Remedy. S.S.S. never fails to cure Scrofula, Kcietna, Rheumatism Contagious Blood Poison, or any disorder of the blood. Do not rely upon a simple tonic to cure deep-seated blood disease, but take a real blood remedy. Our books free upon appli cation. Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. Program ol Capt. G. W.
