King of Medicines Serofulous Humor—A Oure «Almost Mtraculous.’’ “When I was 14 years of age I had a severe attack of rheumatism, and after I recovered had to go on cfutches. A year later, scrofula, in the form of white swellings, appeared on various parts of my body, dnd for 11 years I was an invalid, being confined to my bed years. In that time ten or eleven sores ap- peared and broke, causing me great pain and suffering. I feared J never should get well. “Early in 1886 I went to Chicago to visit a sister, but was confined to my bed most of the time I was there. In July I read a book,‘ & Day with a Circus,’ in which were statemeats of cures by Hood's Sarsaparilla. I was so tm- pressed with the success of this medicine thas I decided to try it. To my great gratification the sores soon decreased, and I began to fee! better and in a short time I was up ard out of doors. I continued to take Hood's Sar- Saparilla for about a year, when, having ysed stx bottles, I had become so fully released from the disease that I went to work for the Flint & Walling Mfg. Co., and since then HAVE NOT LOST A SINGLE DAY on account of sickness, I believe the disease is expelled from my system, I always feel well am in good spirits and have a good appet! Iam now 27 years of age and can walk as wel! 28 any one, except that one limb fs a little shorter than the other, owing to the loss of bone, and the sores formerly on my right leg. To my friends my recovery seems alm: miracuk and I think Hood's Sarsaparilia is the of medicines.” Wituiam A. Leuk, 9 N. Railroad St., Kendallville, Ind.
