Flesh/ MANY are the eyes that are turned to gaze with keen ad* miration on the well developed, healthy girl no matter where she may be—on the rapidly moving thoroughfare or gliding gracefully over the dance floor. All eyes turn because we all ap* predate the girl with the figure eo firm and plump—the girl with radiantly red cheeks, cheeks that carry a touch of roses from nature’s own garden—the girl with the sparkling eyes, keen and sharp —the girl with buoyancy and the swing of youth. Not necessarily an out-of-doors girl. Just a girl with ever increasing blood cells. Just a girl filled with the vim and vigor of youth. S. S. S., since 1826, has stood for increased blood cells. S. S. S. means restored strength—rekindled vitality—added energy. Take S. S. S. and watch the bloom of youth return to your cheeks Watch that flabby, ill nourished flesh fade away before flesh that is firm and plump. Red blood cells will do it and S. S. S. will build them. It contains only pure vegetable ingredients. S. S. S. Is sold at all _ good drug stores. The large JL size bottle Is more economb C You Feel jUyjJt Qfcg Yourself Again
