Beware of the Doctors' ' There is not the slightest doubt that the
doctors do more harm than good in treating
Contagious Blood 'Poison ; many victims of
Patchwork You tiiis loathsome disease would be much better
Can
; off to-day if they had never allowed them
selves to be dosed on mercury and potash , the
Cure Yourself at Home. only remedies which the doctors ever give for
. blood poison.
The doctors are wholly unable to get rid of
this vile poison , and only attempt to heal up the outward appearance of the
disease the sores and eruptions. This they do by driving the poison into the
system , und endeavor to keep it shut in with their constant doses of potash
mid mercury. The mouth and throat and other delicate parts then break out
into sores , and the fight is continued indefinitely , the drugs doing the system
more damage than the disease itself.
Mr. 31. L. Myers , 100 Mulberry St. , Newark , N" . J. , says : 'I hod spent a
hundred dollars with the doctors , when. I realized that
they could do mo no pood. I had large spots all over my
brdy , and these soon broke out into running sores , and I
endured all 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 is be
yond their skill. Swifts Specific
S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
acts in nn entirely different way from potash and mercury it forces the
poison out of the system and gets rid of it entirely. Hence it cures the
disease , while other remedies only shut the poison in where it lurks forever ,
constantly undermining the constitution. Our system of private home treat
ment places u cur > within the reach of all. We give all necessary medical ad
vice , free of charge , and save the patient the embarrassment of publicity.
