How To Drive Out
Ail Blood Impurities
The. Searching Effect of a Most Remarkable
Remedy. It’s Power For Health
Unfolds the Most Amazing Facts
In Just Three Minutes You are on the Way to Blood Health
Countless people who suffered with
some form of blood trouble have mar
veled at their recovery after using S. S. S.
This famous blood purifier, known wher
ever civilization has set its foot, has an
action in the blood that makes it truly
a wonder and a safeguard in this day of
dangerous drugs. To begin with S. S. S.
is purely vegetable, yet it accomplishes
nil that has been claimed for mercury,
iodides, arsenic and a host of other min
eral and poisonous substances.
When we look at the bulk of an adhlt
human body it is amazing to realize that
in its maze of main arteries and network
of capillaries there is in circulation a
volume of blood equal to only three quarts.
Now, this will help us to realize how
quickly we may reach Rnd effectively
purify the blood supply with even a small
quantity of 8. S. S.
In twenty seconds a drop of blood tra
verses the entire system and the whole
volume of blood in the body has completed
its tourney throughout the body in an
averof three minutes. This shows the
tremendous activity of S. S. 8., for it is
a perfectly assimilable product, becomes
a part of the blood plasma as quickly as
nourishing food, and begins its antidotal
activity Just as soon as it enters the blood.
A given part of the blood is in the* ca
pillaries but one and a half seconds but
in this limited time the oxygen and nutri
tive matter are given to the tissues along
with the purifying activity of S. S. S.
And no matter how severely the blood has
become impregnated with some form of im
purity you may be sure %. 8. 8. will drive
It out. Nor is this fact of more Impor
tance than to know that In thus ridding
the blood of disease, the ingredients eom

! president of the Industrial Furniture
Company gave the Citizens & South
ern Bank. These, five business men
were to pay 20 per cent each of the
$20,000 in the event it .was not paid
at maturity. There are now a total of
five indictments fop forgery of four
counts each against Armstrong, one
indictment for a felony and one for
embezzlement.
A striking coincidence was that
Armstrong’s name happened to be one
of those drawn from the Jury box
by Judge Hammond for jury duty next
week when the Armstrong case is ex
pected to come up.
The grand jury also returned indict
ments against the following: Dock
Loo Bong, receiving stolen goods; W.
Just as soon as they have done their dutf
in the cells of the tissues.
Nature put some marvelous healing ele*
ments into the products from which is ex
tracted S. 8. 8, These are readily assim
ilated, they get right into the blood and
actually bathe all these tissues with a
most wonderful healing influence.
It is a well-known fact that the body
strives to throw out through the skin in
the form of perspiration an excess of salts
and adds that accumulate in the blood.
When you take a hot bath you know how
the sweat stings if it drops into the eyes.
This same effect goes on at various dIL
ferent spots on the skin and if not given
assistance results in sores, rash, salt
rheum, terrible itching and a general
plague of the skin. Now, the action of
8. 8. 8. Is Just as if you were continu
ally perspiring only there is no visible evi
dence of the fact. The remedy enters the
blood through the intestines and in a few
seconds is hard at work. It follows the
law of circulation by which, having
served its purpose, it seeks an outlet and
at once Is caught in the myriad of small
vessels that reach the skin pores
all over the body.
A wonderful work is now going on; in
stead ..of these poisons collecting in the
form"of crusts and irritating, Itching ec
zema, they dry up and new blood ele
ment*, made possible by 8. 8. S. form
new skin and eruptions are completely
banished. It is remarkable how quickly
this results. Get a bottle of 8. S. 8. of
any druggist.
Don’t accept a substitute. Reware of
those ;“just as good” impositions. And
if your blood is in such condition that
you would like the personal opinion of an
authority, write to the Medical Dept., The

REPUDIATION IN
LED FRANK CASE
His Attorneys Hear That Con
fession Witnesses Now Re
tract Stories As Published.
Atlanta, Ga. —The report current in
Atlanta Monday that Rev, C. B. Rags
dale. the minister who accuses Jim Con
ley of having confessed to Mary Pha
gan's murder, and that R. 1,. Barber,
the member of Ragsdale’s flock, who
corroborated the pastor's story, had re
pudiated their stories, and had branded
them, as “frame-ups” last night, result
ed in a sensational statement to the
press from Frank's counsel.
His attorneys also presented affidavits
from Dr. J. M. Pierce and John E.
White, who had vouched to Frank's de
fense for the character of Ragsdale, and
similar affidavits from George E. Knott,
who had testified to the character of
Barber.
Rumors were persistent on Monday
that there would be startling develop
ments in the Ragsdaie and Barber affi
davits. but Solicitor Dorsey absolutely
refused to discuss the matter, declaring
that all developments would be made
public on Friday. When the card of
Frank's lawyers was fufnished The Con
stitution it was so late at night that it
was impossible to reach either Rev. Mr.
Ragsdale or Mr. Barber for a state
ment.
Frank’s counsel's statement follows:
Frank> Lawyers’ Statement.
On Thursday April 23. 1914, there ap
peared at the office of I- Z. Rossor, In
the Grant building, iwo men who pro
fessed to have Important information In
reference to the Frank trial. One of
these represented himself to be a preach
er and the other a former member of his
flock.
These two men were unknown to each
of us. Neither of us had ever seen or
heard 6f them beforer.
L. Z. Rosser acted in taking the affi
davits of these men. He put them to
the test of the most thorough cross-ex
amination of which he capable.
There was no effort to lead them, to add
to or color their story. On the con
trary. they were given clearly to under
stahd that Frank's counsel wanted only
the truth, and in taking their affidavits
w*> were seeking nothing beyond Just
what they knew and knew accurately.
The affidavits were prepared in their
presence, almost their very words being
taken by a competent and honest ste
nographer. After the affidavits had
been typewritten they were carefully
read to each of the witnesses and sworn
to before a disinterested notary public.
Did Not Dream of Wrong.
Neither one of us dreamed that they
were acting corruptly, but believed that
they were acting from pure motives to
Toirect the wrong of their former si
lence.
They were asked to give the names of
their friends .and associates, ns the law
requires. They gave promptly some of
the most correct and upright men in the
citv of Atlanta.
Some of these men were promptly seen
in an effort to determine whether these
men were what they seemed and repre
sented themselves to be.
The result was in keeping with their
claims. Bome of the best men in At
lanta vouched for them and we felt jus
tified in Jresentlng their story to the
court.
It has come to our ears th's evening
that both % these men now recant and
claim thev framed up their story.
Will Denounce Perfidy.
Ts these rumors be true, we denounce
•tlie perfidy of these men with All the
vehemence of our natures.
In this Prank case we have never
wanted anything but the truth, have
never made use of anything but what
was believed to be the truth.
We have believed and now profoundly
believe in Frank’s innocence but even
that conviction has never induced us to
say one word that the whole city of At
lanta could not bear, nor to do anything
that the whole state of Georgia could
not see.
Ts these rumors are true we will at
once cut these perjured witnesses out of
♦he .case, Just as we have In the past,
and Just as we will in the future every
fact and cYcumstonce thAt even squints
at unfairness or perjury.
Tn proof that we did not act even cre
dulously and inadvisedly in this matter
we send you herewith copies of affida
vits of men who vouch for the character
of these men.
