' There is not the slightest doubt that the
of the Doctors'
eware doctors do more harm than good in treating
Contagious Blood Poison ; many victims of
this loathsome disease would be much better

selves to be dosed on mercury and potash , the
only remedies which the doctors ever give for

, blood poison.
The doctors are wholly unable to get rid of
this vile poison , nnd only attempt to heal tip the outward appearance of the
disease tb sore and r-uptions. This they do by driving the poison into the
system , and endeavor to keep it shut in with their constant doses of potash
and mercury. The mouth and throat and other delicate part * then break out
into sores , and the light is continued indefinitely , the drugt. doing the system
more damage than the disease itself.
Mr. II. L Myers , 100 Mulberry St. , Newark , Nr. J. ? says : "I had spent a
hundred dollars with the doctors , when I realized that
they could do me no good. I had large spots all over my
brdy , and these soon broke out into running sores , and 1
endured alj the suffering which this vile disease pro
duces. I decided to try S. S. S. as a last resort , and was
soon greatly improved. I followed closely your 'Direc
tions for Self-Treatment , ' and the large splotches on my
chest began to grow paler and smaller , and before long
disappeared entirely. I was soon cured perfectly and my
skin has been as clear as glass ever since. I cured my
self at home , after the doctors had failed completely. "
It is valuable time thrown away to expect the doctors
to cure Contagious Blood Poison , for the disease ia be
