"Six months ago I

for putting an end to his miserable

Mr. W. M. Rutherford,* of 612 8.
Main St., Muncie, Indiana, says: "I
had a severe case of blood poison, for
which I was treated by the best doctor
here, but he was unable
to check the disease, Tll6
and I grew steadily
worse. I also tried KlglTt
several remedies, but
they did not seem to n61IIGuyt
reach the trouble at all.
I had begun to think I was incurable,
when someone recommended S. S. S.,
and before I had finished the first bot-
tle I knew I had the vighi lemeoy at
last. A dozen bottles cured me com-
pletely and 1 have had no sign of the
disease since."
