The whole, simple secret of a well-developed fqjm is in tha number of btood-oells in your body. You can now forget all the theoretical talk about diet, exercise, fad treatments, food-fats and fat-foods. Nothing is of any use, after all, except blood cells! Thin, run-down men and Women, with bony necks, sunken cheek*, bony shoulders-r-all these are suffering frem one thing—too few blood-cells. Science has proved that S.S.S. helps to make the rich rcd-blood-cells, which you need. Your blood is starv ing for these new blood-cells! Give your blood the blood-cells it needs— take S.S.S. the great scientific Wood cell maker. S.SiS. has dfine marvels, too, in making beautiful complexions, clearing the skin, making lips rosy led. the cheeks full and plump—be cause it rids the blood of impurities which cause pimples, .blackheads, acne, blotches, eczema, tetter, rash and rheumatism, too. As the me dicinal ingredients of S.S.S. are pure ly vegetable, it may be taken with perfect safety. This is why S.S.S., since 1826, has meant to thousands of underweight men and women a plus in their strength. Start taking S.S.S. today am. your great problem, that of your paronal appearance, can be solved. A S. S. S. is sold at all Rood drug stores in two sizes. The lanr*r aiza mML is more economical. iRa-S-iC C C ottie Worlds Best mood Medicine To Establish Movie Studio in Caro- j lina Mountains. , -- (Ben Dixon McNeill in Raleigh News and Observer.)

Take a look at the oil level, too, before you start on your trip. Have you tried the new "Standard” Motor Oil for Ford cars?
