CANCER Surgical operations and flesh destroying plasters are useless, painful and dangerous, and besides, never cure Cancer. No matter how often a cancerous sore is removed, another comes at or near the same point, and always in n worse form. Does not this prove conclusively that Cancer is a blood disease, and that it is folly to attempt to cure this deep-seated, dangerous blood trouble hy cutting or hunting out the sore, which, after all, is only an outward sign of the disease a place of exit for the poison ? Cancer runs in families through many generations, aud those whose ancestors have been afflicted with it are liable at any time to be stricken with the deadly malady. Only Blood Diseases can be Transmitted from One Generation to Another further proof that Cancer is a disease of the blood. To cure a blood disease like this you must cure the entire blood, system remove every trace of the poison. Nothing cures Cancer effectually and permanently but S. S. S. S. S. S. enters the circulation, searches out and removes all taint, and stops the formation of cancerous cells. No mere tonic or ordinary blood medicine can do this. S. S. S. goes down to the very roots of the disease, and forces out the deadly poison, allowing the sore to heal naturally and pennanently. S. S. S. at the same time purifies the blood and huildsup the general health. experience, who are or infonuation wanted, we make no charge whatever for this service.
