The wide spread fameof Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup is justly won by its own merits, and the reputation it has gained has been secured by its universal use, Without Knife or Fire. Mr. S. E. Carmichael, a prominent citizen of Henrietta, Texas, writes : "I wish to tell you what Swift's Specific has done for my wife. Sev eral years ago there appeared a splotch on the corner of her nose which gradually increased in size, and became quite painful ; on wash ing her face it would frequently bleed. The doctors called it cancer, and advised that it be removed by the knife or burning, stating that it never would do to neglect it. My wife refused to have it cut or burned, but at the same time it continued to grow worse. After a time she com menced taking S. S. S., which effect ed an entire cure. She used a half dozen small sized bottles. We both think there is no medicine in the world that will equal Swift's Speci fic, and we would like for all suffer ers to know the benefit she has re ceived from it." S, S. S. cures blood diseases of this character by forcing out the poison ous germs and the poison also. A val uable book on blood aud skin diseas es will be mailed to all applicants free.

In the Aryan religion the chief offering to the gods was the foment ed juice of the Soma or Moon plant, which, being a strong drink, gave new excitement to those who partook of it, and was believed to impart power to the gods. It was believed, moreover, that it wrought miracles, and for this reason, perhaps, it after wards became the chief god of the Hindus. In a vedic hymn the wor shiper says : "We've (juafted the Soma bright, And are immortal grown ; We've entereed into light, And all the gods have known. What mortal now can harm, Or foeman vex us more ? Through thee beyond alarm, Immortal God! we soar." No such power as this is attributed to any plant at the present time, and yet many of the cures performed by S. S. S., a purely vegetable remedy, seem almost to border on the mira culous. In contagious blood poison scrofula, skin diseases, some forms of cancer, etc., it is the remedy par excellence. Treatise on Blood and Skin Di eases, mailed free. SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, Ga.
