Odd little lead screw cap

[flatbutton]

Dug this last weekend and was a little curious about it. Tried to do a search on it and came up with really nothing other than maybe SSS tonic. It appears to me to be made of lead and my guess is it dates from around mid 1900's or newer.

Thanks taz, when I did the search, that's the same info I got. Apparently the company is still around, so all I could find was modern pics of their product. I ain't that at doing online searches
