Sam Rutherford, of Forsyth, recently nominated as congressman from the sixth district to succeed Hon. J. Walter Wise, of Fayette —to build up Weight/ ANY WOMAN, any man, can now have a well-developed face and form. The whole, simple secret of a well-developed form is in the number of blood-cells in your body. You can now forget all the theoretical talk about diet, exercise, fad treatments, food-fats and fat-foods. Nothing is of any use, after all, except blood cells! Thin, run-down men and women, with bony necks, sunken cheeks, bony shoulders all these aro suffering from one thing—too few blood-cells. Science has proved that S.S.S. helps to make the rich red-blood-cells, which you need. Your blood is starv ing for these new blood-cells! Give your blood the blood-cells it needs— take S.S.S. the great scientific blood cell maker. S.S.S. has done marvels, too, in making beautiful complexions, clearing the skin, making Ups rosy red, the cheeks full and plump—be cause it rids the blood of impurities which cause pimples, blackheads, acne, blotches, eczema, tetter, rash and rheumatism, too. As the me dicinal ingredients of S.S.S. are pure ly vegetable, it may be taken with perfect safety. This is why S.S.S., since 1826, has meant to thousands of underweight men and women a this in their strength. Start taking .S.S. today and your great problem, that of your personal appearance, can be solved. ’g S. S. S. I told at an good drug ctorts in two licea. The larger aiae fytvt is more economical.
