S. S. S. will rid you of boils, pimples, blackheads and skin eruptions! DON’T CLOSE your eyes to the warning which Nature gives when angry, painful boils appear on your neck, face or other parts of your body. Boils, pimples and so-called skin disorders are the result of an impoverished condition of the blood and are not to be trifled with. It is nothing more than folly to ex pect to get absolute relief from the use of local treatments, such as oint ments, salves, etc. Such remedies may afford temporary relief but you want more than relief; you want a remedy which will rid you forever of the tor turing disorder. And the one remedy which has no equal is S.S.S. S.S.S. stops boils and keeps them from coming. S.S.S. builds blood power! That is what makes fighting blood. Fighting blood destroys im purities. It fights boils! It fights skin eruptions —pimples, blackheads, ec zema! It always wins! S.S.S. has been known since 1826 as one of the greatest blood builders, blood cleans ers and system strengtheners ever produced. There are no unproven theories about S.S.S., the scientific results of each of its purely vege table medicinal ingredients are ad mitted by authorities. Begin taking S.S.S. today and clear your skin of those blood disorders! k S.S.S. is sold at all grood drug stores in two sizes. The larger size is more economical. * O Ohe World’s Best olood Medicine WEAK, RUN-DOWN NERVOUS, DIZZY Mrs. Lee Suffered From All These Troubles, but Lydia E.

LETTERS FROM 1 MR. D. C. COLLIER Grand Hotel, Et De Milano, Italy, January 7, 1925. Dear Father:— Arrived here today from Lucern, only stayed there one day on account of the extremely bad weather; it was raining and very damp under foot Tuesday. I had a daylight trip through the Alps today and the scenery was most wonderful indeed. We passed many lakes, all of them a rich blue color. Many of the moun tains were covered with snow; took quite a large number of views (photos) from the train. I certain ly wonder how the Swiss mountain eers live on the sides of these moun tains. Passed through Como and of course saw Lake Como. Milan is a much nicer city than 1 thought; haven’t seen the city yet, only the business portion. I have some commercial engage ments for tomorrow. Am feeling ex tremely good today on account of the wonderful sunshine we have had all day. In a measure I commence to think about home when I am tied up on account of the weather and can’t get out, as in about thirty days I will commence to pack my grips and return to America. There are a number of very artistic shops here handling antiques, etc, and the prices in Italy are very cheap, but very dear in Switzerland, so I bought nothing much from the Swiss. I didn’t care much for the Swiss peo ple; they did not look to suit me; their manners, customs and dress are not our way of thinking, tho they are very thorough and industrious. Zurich was a very beautiful city and Lake Lucerne was a thing of beauty. Will close for this time as I will have to get busy tomorrow on my business engagements and get ready to pack my grips in a day or two for Naples, Nice, Rome, etc. I expect to be back in Paris around February Ist. Love to all the family. Sincerely, DURWARD. Grand Hotel, Rome, Jan. 14, 1925. Dear Father:— Arrived here last night from Venice after traveling all day; rather tiresome trip as there were no Eng lish people around; the weather was ideal, tho, and is still so here. Got a good idea of the Italian farming districts. Today I spent interviewing the American consul and ambassador and the Italian Viscosa, but was not suc cessful in getting thru at this town. Have engagements at Lyons to go thru one or two textile mills and in terview the managers and directors. The Trust Cos. has also made dates for me to visit textile plants at Marseilles and later at Lille, France. I am certainly becoming well posted about the European na tions, their ways and customs even in so short a time. Business condi tions in Italy are steadily improving, also in all other European countries. Sorry I did not get to go to Berlin, but on account of the weather condi tions in Germany and not feeling very well did not care to take the chance of going into the very cold weather they are now having. This morning received all of the Berlin mail, also received all mail sent to me here at Rome. I note the deal you have made which is 0. K. Also letter from the par ties in New York City. I find Italy cheaper than any country in Europe. They are making some wonderful merchandise at Milan from cotton and art silk. Shall see the remains of old Rome Tuesday and Wednesday, also the ruins of Pompie Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Sunday I will travel over to Nice, arriving Sunday after noon. Will close, feeling O. K., but tired as I have to rush when I have so many places to go and so many com mercial engagements to meet. I have met with a royal reception all over Europe from each and every one I became acquainted with, have been entertained in royal style. I shall return to Manchester, England, about the first of February to spend three or four days and then sail for Amer ica. With best wishes to all my friends and love to the family. Sincerely, DURWARD. Hotel Royal Danieli Venise, Venice, Italy, Jan. 9, 1925. Dear Father: — Arrived here tonight from Milan, after spending two days. On Thurs day I went with Mr. Spaini to visit a real silk manufacturing plant at Monza and very modem it was. Some of these Italians are smarter than we have given them credit for, in fact, I am surprised to find them so much up to date. Milan is the tex tile center of Italy—cotton, silk and art silk. The art silk manufactur ing has doubled in twelve months. This morning I am to meet and go thru the mills of the Societe Chatil lon of Piedmont, likewise the Ameri can consul is making arrangements for me to visit the Societe Visoza at Turin. I was introduced by the Banque Populaire of Zurich to some of the largest textile manufacturers of Lucerne. They are all making enormous profits over in this country now and many new plants are under construction in Switzerland, Italy, France and England. The American consul is arranging to introduce me to the various textile plants around Rome. The taxies in Milan are the best and cheapest in Europe; one can ride an hour for 50c and they do go for speed. Mussolini is dong wonders for Italy; he has the backing and confidence of big business. There are literally millions of mul berry trees in this section. The country is almost flat, land very fer tile and well cultivated. Italy is on the eve of a big industrial expansion, much new machinery coming in, new factories going up, etc., and the peo ple are beginning to wake up under Mussolini’s leadership. One of their j worst customs is the closing of all j shops and factories two hours for lunch, they then work until seven thirty P. M. Venice I can’t describe as yet ex cept I am now in the best hotel I have been in since I have been in Europe at a most reasonable price. I was ushered into a gondola by the hotel porter on my arrival at the station and was rowed to the hotel up the Grand Canal. This city is different from any 1 have seen. I have been tempted to cut out part of my trip as I am growing tired but finally decided to stick it thru and complete my itinerary as mapped out before I left America. At times 1 get quite a bit homesick as 1 find so few English speaking people over in this part of Europe but realize that it won’t be long till I am back so I must see all I can while I am over here. The Italian railroads are very poor so I only travel in the day. I received your mail at Zurich. I leave here Sunday morning for Rome; will cut out Florence on this trip. Sincerely, DURWARD.
