You have the most convincing eidence of this
fact every day. Otherwise beautiful faces marred with
Mack heads, blotches and pimples, muddy or sallow com
plexions, and red. roueh. or oilv ski Tin flrf cnnip nf the
most common and conspicuous symptoms of bad blood. .
You can hide these ugly and humiliating blemishes by glazing them over with face
powders and rouge, and the rough and discolored skin is made white and smooth by a lavish
use of cosmetics, but these artificial complexions and false skins only last for a day, when
the eruptions and sots stand out as bare and brazen as ever. The natural beauty and
smoothness of the skin cannot be permanently restored by the use of external applications,
for the reason that these skin diseases are due to some poison or humor in the blood that
must be antidoted and eliminated before the skin can or will return to a healthy state.
Under the purifvine and tonic effects of fi S. S
all impurities are expelled from the blood; the
general health is invigorated, and all disfiguring
and annoying eruptions promptly and perma
nently disappear from the skin, and it becomes as
soft and smooth as ever.
Bad blood tells in many other ways. Itch
ing and burning eruptions, rashes and sores, boils
and carbuncles show the presence of some irrita
ting poison or unhealthy matter in the blood, and
these aggravating troubles will continue until the
weak and slow circulation has been quickened
and the deteriorated blood made rich and srirmo-
again. Some are born with bad blood, and it begins to tell in infancy; scrofulous affections
sore eyes, scalp diseases, nasal catarrh, stunted growth, brittle bones and soft, flabby muscles
are some of the early manifestations of bad blood by inheritance. These symptoms if
neglected, may develop into some deep-seated and serious blood trouble later on in life, but
the timely use of S. S. S. will check the disease in its incipiency, remove all taint from the
circulation, and the little sufferers grow into healthy manhood and womanhood.
jucu me uioou is neaiiny ana pure it tells a
different story, a smooth and flawless skin glowing with
health, a sound body and active brain, well nourished '
systenij good appetite and digestion, and restful and
- refreshing sleep. S. S. S., combining both purifying and
tonic properties, contains all that you need in the way of
a blood builder and skin beautifier.
. S. S. S. is Nature's Remedy. It contains no Arsenic,
Potash, or other mineral, but is strictly a vegetable blood purifier and tonic that can be
taken without fear of any hurtful effects, and with perfect assurance of a speedy and lasting
pure. Our illustrated book on the Skin and its Diseases contains much plain and practical
information about eruptive diseases, their cause and cure, how to take care of the skin
