Scrofula, a Vile Inheritance.

Scrofula is the most obstinate of blood troubles, and is often the result of an Inherited taint in the blood. S. S. S. is the only remedy which goes deep enough to reach Scrofula it forces out every trace of the disease, and cureB the worst cases.

My son, Charlie, was afflicted from Infancy with Scrofula, and be suffered so that It waa Impossible to dress bim lor three years. His head and body were a mass of sores, and his eyesight also bccame affected. No treatment was spared that we thought would relieve him, but he grew worse until his condition

was

Indeed pitiable. I

had

almost despaired of his ever being cured, when by the advice of

friend

we gave him

S. S. S.

(Swift's Specific). Adeelded Improvement was the result, and after ne had taken a dozen bottles, no one who knew or his former dreadful condition would have recognized him. All the sores on bis body have healed, liis skin is perfectly clear and smooth, and he has been restored to perfect health. MRS, S. S. MABRY, 860 Elm St., Macon, Ga.

For real blood troubles it is a waste of time to expect a cure from the doctors. Blood diseases are beyond their skill. Swift's Specific,

S.S.S.

The
