Mr. Arthur McConnell

“Q. 1. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.:
“One thousand dollars’ worth of other medi
cines, prescriptions, etc., have failed to do for
me what Hood’s Sarsaparilla has done. My
home is in Forida, but in 188¢ I went to Califor.
nia and lived there four years. I was taken sick
in 1886 and had medical assistance, but found no
relief. The doctors said I had chronic bronchi
tis. I wasin the Marine Hospital at SBan Fran
cisco several months and at Rush Medical Col
lege, Chicago, 11 months, but still did not get
better, so came back to Pensacola. My weight
was then 139 pounds with a heavy overcoat on.
[ My Friends Did Not Know Me,
I was 8o thin ard broken down. But the cli
mate and being at home gave me a little courage
and I began trying various medicines. In Au
gust, 1890, I was appointed to a position in the
United States custom house. My friends urged
my wife to have me try Hood's Sarsaparilla. I
took it three times a day just to please her. But
to my surprise I commenced to feel differently
after a week on Hood's. I found I was hungry
and that I could sleep better; that tired feeling
also left me. So I continued taking Hood's Sar
saparilla; have used nine bottles and four
boxes of Hood's Pills, with the result that i

weigh 162 pounds, have a good appetite, sleep
well, and have not losta day’s work since I be
gan to take this medicine. When everything
