Hood's Sarsaparilla Cured Them —
Now Perfectly Well.
“ My trouble began with a pain in my
left thigh. I labored on for several
months when I had to give np. In a short
time I was completely prostrated. I was
told that my disease was rheumatism,
scrofula and malaria, but the prescrip
tions I tried did not benefit me. I re
membered having once used Hood’s Sar-
Baparilla for blood poisoning with good
results and I determined to resort to it at
this time. I bought six bottles of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla and four boxes of Hood’s Pills
and followed the directions. I am thank
ful to state that I am entirely cured and
am today as well as I ever was in my life.”

confirm this fact.
