SCROFULA It is Foul Blood’s Advertise ment But it Is Soo.i Cured by Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Yes, Scrofula, If a uyt hiug, may be called the advertisement. f foul blood. It is the scourge of the woi Id offensive, painful, debilitating, stubborn and well nigh unendurable. Outward applications do not cure, they only drive the difficulty to new quarters. Emollients may palliate, they cannot abolish the evil. There is but one sure way out, aud that is to eliminate the taint from the blood. Ther- la one remedy that can effect thia, and it is the only one that, so far as we know, has almost invariably succeeded — even where the system has been poisoned by long years of taint, and the ravages to be repaired are tremendous. That remedy is Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Head this: “My daughter was afflicted with im nure blood. There were running sores all over her body and they caused her much suffering. We tried medicines that were recommended as blood purifiers, but could not sec that they did any good. A friend >ld me about Hood’s Sarsapa rilla and 1 began giving the girl this med icine. The result was that she was per fectly cured after taking a few bottles. She has had no symptoms of scrofula sores since that time.” Marietta M. Smith, South Middleboro, Mass.
