ThESE two important steps
may help you to overcome
Sour Stomach Jerky Nerves
Loss of Appetite Underweight
Digestive Complaints Weakness
Poor Complexion
Getting value out of the food you eat
is your No. 1 health problem whether
you eat 500 or 2,000 pounds yearly. I
To do this, scientists say, you must
have an adequate supply of natural
stomach digestive Juices and rich, red
blood must be present.
Improper diet, overwork, undue wor
ries, colds, the flu or other illness often,
Impairs the stomach’s digestive func
tions and reduces the red-blood strength.
A person who is operating on only a
70 to 75% healthy blood volume or a
stomach digestive capacity of only 50
to 60% normal Is severely handicapped.
Undigested food sours, causes gas . . .
bloating . . . falls to supply the neces
sary body energy . . . tissue repair . . .
often resulting In nervousness and loss
of energy.
So with ample stomach digestive juices
PLUS rich, red-blood you should enjoy
that sense of well being which denotes
physical fitness . . . mental alertness!
If you are subject to poor digestion or
suspect deficient red-blood as the cause
of your trouble, yet have no organic
complication or focal Infection, SSS
Tonic may be just what you need as it
Is especially designed to promote the
flow of vital digestive Juices In the
stomach and to build-up blood strength
when deficient.
These two Important results enable
you to enjoy the food you do eat... to
make use of It as Nature Intended. Thus
you may get new vitality . .. pep ... be
come animated . . . more attractive!
Build Sturdy Health
so that the Doctors may better

testified to the benefits SSS Tonic has
brought to them and scientific research
shows that it gets results—that’s why so
