S.S.S. will rid you of bolls, pimples, blackheads and skfh eruptions! DON’T CLOSB your eyes to the warning which Nature gives when angry, painful boils appear on your neck, face or other parts of your body. Boils, pimples and so-called skin disorders are the re* suit of an impoverished condition of the blood and are to be trifled with. It is nothing more than folly to expect to get absolute relief from the use of local treatments, such as ointments, salves, etc. Such remedies may afford temporary re* lief but you want more than relief; you want a remedy which will rid you forever of the torturing disorders. And the one remedy which has no equal Is S.S.S. S.S.S stops boils and keeps them from coming. S.S.S. builds bloodpower! That is what makes fighting blood. Fighting blood destroys impurities. It fights boils. It fights skin eruptions—pimples, blackheads, eczema! It always wins! S.S.S. has been known since 1826 as one of the greatest blood builders, blood cleansers and system strengtheners ever produced. There are no unproven theories about S.S.S., the scientific results of each of its purely vegetable medicinal ingredients are admitted by authorities. Begin taking S.S.S. today and clear your skin of those blood disorders! as S. S. &. u told at all good M drug store* in two sixes. Th# larger sue is mors economical. C C Woridb Beat ffilood Medicine
