“Gentlemen:— My troubles began wKh
nervoua headaches, which woeid Mat
me for two or three days. The doctors
pronounced my trouble dyspepsia, bat
they could not do anything for me, and
advised a change of location. At the age
of 66 a tumor formed on my apine, which
Was Very Painful
but did not riae or discharge. The doctor
thought best to cut it out, but I objected.
It finally broke and diacharged a great
deal. The doctors Saide'/hey could do
nothing for It. Then the tumor began to
rise inwardly and diacharge. 1 read much
about cures by Hood’s Sarsaparilla and
thought I would try it. Before I had
finished taking one bottle I was much
relieved. I continued the use of Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, and after taking 12 bottles I
vas entlr. ly cured. Jam How well, have
a good appetite and fv«l that I owe my
life to Hood’s Sarsaparilla." W. D. Foius.
