OLD PEOPLE
Do not always receive the sympathy and attention which
they deserve. Their ailments are regarded as purely §*jfj|
imaginary, or natural and unavoidable at their time of
life. Disease and infirmity should not always be associ
ated with old ago The eye of the gray haired grandsire)^*^^^^
may be as bright and the complexion as fair a3 any of
his younger an <j more vigorous compani
Good Blotd la tho aoorot of ho y old ago, for it regulates
and controls evTry part of the body, strengthens the nerves, makes the
muscles elastic ind supple, the bones strong and the flesh firm; but when
this life fluid is polluted or poisoned and loses its nutritive, health sustain
ing elements, tlfea there is a rapid d* line of the vital powers, resulting
in premature olp age and disease. Any derangement of the blood quickly
shows itself iri an ulcer, sore, wart, tumor or some other troublesome
growth upon tie body, and rheumatic and neuralgic pains become almost
constant, accompanied with poor digestion and cold extremities.
S— I _ S. S. S. being purely vegetable, is the safest and
best blood purifier for old people. It does not shock
VN, or hurt the system like the strong mineral remedies,
but gently and thoroughly cleanses the blood and
\ ' J stimulates the debilitated organs, when all bodily
ailments disappear. S. S. S. is just such a lonic as old people need to
improve awe4c digestion and tone up the Stomach. If there is any heredi
tary taint, or the remains of some disease contracted in early life, S. S. S.
will search it out and remove every vestige of it from the system.
