When ihe
Hair Fails
Accompanied by
mucous patches in
the mouth, enin.
tlotn on the skin,
sore throat, copper
colored splotches,
Allt 9WHcn gl.inds, aching muscles
villi nnd bones, the disease is making
rapid headway, and far worse
symptoms will follow unless the blood it
promptly and effectually cleansed of this
violent destructive poison.
S. S. S. is the only safe and infallible
cure for this disease, the only antidote
for this specific poison. It cures the
worst cises thoroughly nnd permanently.

There was onco a man who thought

was wiser in her day nnd generation
than her husband, advised against it,
but h was one of tho kind of men who

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications because thoy can
not reach tho diseased portions of tho
oar. There is only one way to cure
dcafnoss, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inll med condition of the mucous lining
of the eustacnian tube. When tho tube
gets intlutued you havo a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed deafness is tho re
sult, and unless tho inflammation can
bo taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, henring will bo
destioycd forever; nine. cases out of ton
ate caused by catarrh, which is noth
ing but un inflamed condition of tho
mucous sin faces.
Wo will give ono hundred dollars
