DROP of ink will color a whole glass
of water. It is an inch of yeast which
makes a pan of bread rise, and a single
cake of soap containing unabsorbed
alkali can ruin a hundred times its cost in laces
and fine embroidery. After all, is it wise to take
such risks with common soap ? Of course you
can get along without Ivory Soap. So can a
wagon without axle grease but it goes hard.

The foul secretions entering the circulation poison the entire system. The stomach, kidneys in

P washes nnd salves may give temporary relief, no permanent benefit can be expected from such treatment.
CATARRH IS A CONSTITUTIONAL OR BLOOD DISEASE,
and far beyond the reach of mere local remedies. Those who rely upon them for a cure lose valuable time, meet with disap
pointment nnd allow the disease to take firmer hold. Onlv a real blood remedy can reach this troublesome and dangerous disease.
S. S. S cures Catarrh because it first cleanses and btulda up the blood, purifies it, makes it rich and healthy, stimulates and
puts new life into the sluggish worn-out organs, nnd thus relieves the system of all poisonous accumulations.
