The germs of Khcumatism are in
the blood which is laden with mil-
lions of the minute demons of pain
causing un;«*ld suffering and bringing
its victim fro:rt vigor and strength to
almost helplessness. To get real and
genuine relief from this disease
these disease germs must be com-
pletely routed out of the system
through the blood.
S. S. S. has been used for fifty
years with satisfactory results in the
treatment of Rheumatism. It acts
directly upon the blood which it
promptly purifies of all disease germs.
It is a powerful antidote and elimi-
nates from the blood ail trace of
rheumatic germs building up and
strengthening the run-down system.

rector who will give you valuable
