CURES
. SKIN DISEASES
r 0 ^0
- When the blood is pure and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth, and
Irce from all blemishes and eruptions; but when some acid humor takes
root in the circulation, its presence is quickly manifested by some form of
skin disease. The skin receives its necessary nourishment and strength
from the blood. t When, however, this vital fluid becomes a humor-laden
stream, it can no longer preserve the healthy, natural appearance of the skin,
but by its acrid, impure nature continually irritates and inflames the delicate-
tissues and fibres and keeps the cuticle in a diseased and disfigured condition.
External applications cannot reach the blood, and therefore are beneficial
only for their ability to reduce inflammation, and assist in keeping the parts
clean. To cure any skin trouble the blood'must be purified of the humors
that are causing the trouble. S. S. S. drives out the humors from the blood
so that the skin, instead of being irritated and diseased, is nourished by a
healthy, cooling stream. S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and
removes every particle of impure matter, all acids and humors, and restores
the blood to its normal, pure condition, thereby curing every form of skin
disease or affection. Book on skin diseases and any medical advice free to
all Who write. TEE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.

A few doses of this remedy will In
variably cure an ordinary attack of
diarrhoea. ,
It can always be depended upon,
even in the more severe attacks of
cramp colic and cholera morbus.
It is equally successful for summer
diarrhoea and cholera infantnm In
children, and is the means of saving
the lives of many children each year.
When reduced with water and
sweetened it is pleasant to take.
Every man of a family shonld keep
this remedy in his home. Bay it now.

If one feels dull and spiritless In
the spring or early summer, they
call It "Spring Fever.” But there
Is no fever—usually. It Is the after
effect of our winter habits. The
nerves are mostly at fault. Tired,
worn-out nerves leave us languid
lifeless, and without spirit or ambi
tion. A few doses of Dr. Shoop’s Res
torative will absolutely and quickly
change all of these depressing symp
toms. The Restorative of course
won't bring you back to full health in
a day or two, but It will do enough In
48 hours to satisfy you that the
remedy Is reaching that “tired spot"
Druggists everywhere are advising
Its UBe as a splendid and prompt gen
eral tonic. It gives more vim and
more spirit to the spoonful than any
other known nerve or constitutional
tonic. It sharpens a falling appetite,
aids digestion, frees sluggish livers,
and kidneys and iirings new life,
strength and ambition. Test is a
few days and heteonvincad. Sold by
