MeSSrS Sands: Gent.-Words cannot express
the gratitude feel fot your treatment to me, a
stranger suffering under one of the most Ioatllsomc
diseases that nature is capaele OF bearing. The
disease with which was afflicted commenced
with inflammation of the eyes, in the year 1886,
which caused almost total blindness. For this j
was treated and finally relieved, but the remedies
were such to the developement of scrof-
ulous affection my left the elbow.
The pain extended from the shoulder to the
end OF my fingers, and tor two years my suffering
were beyond description. tried various RENE
dies and consulted different Physicians in New
York; and among them the late DR.. Bushe; he told
me the disease Of the arm caused by the large
quantity Of mercury taken 10 cure the infamma-
ton OF the eyes.
My sufierings continued, the arm enlarged, tu-
mors formed in different places, and in few
months discharged, making ten running ulcers at
one time, some above and some below the elbow,
| and the discharge was offensive that no person
could 5ea, to be IN the room where was. ! then
applied to another distinguished Physician who
told me smPutation Of the arm was the only thing
that could my life, as it was impossible TO
cure dreadful disease; but as | was unwilling
to consent tn il he recommended me to Swain
Panacea freely which | did without deriving but
little benefit. For three years unable To
raise my hand to my head or comb my hair, and The
scrofula made its appearance my head, des-
| troying the bone in different places, causing ex
tensive alterations, and feared it might reach and
destroy the bran-the head swelled very much
accompanied with violent pain, numerous exter-
nal remedies recommended, but they did no
good.-Abuut a year since | was taken severely
vi with a swelling of the body from head to foot
so that was entirely helpless, tho Doctor advised
me to go to the hos pta for he did not understand
my case; for the last few months had been af.
ilicted witha pain on both sides, at times hard
!
constantly annoyed me, and this combined with
my other malades, rendered truly miserable.
Such gentlemen, had been my situation for seven
years OF my life when commenced the of your
Sarsaparlla but my considered hope
less and the near prospect of speedy dissolution
seemed inevitable, ielt but little encouragement,
to persevere. The persuasion Of friends induced
me to try your medicine, which in few days pro-
duced great change in my system generally, by
causing appetite, relieving the pains, and Civ
ing me strength; as success inspires confidence,
I was encouraged TO persevere, my pains grew
| easier, my strength returned food relished, the
ulcers healed, flesh formed, and once more
felt within me that might get we'll. have now
used the Sarsaparila about two months, and am
like different being. Tho arm that 1ods 10 be
amputated has entirely healed, a thing that seem
ed impossible. | can scarcely believe the evidence
Of my own eyes, but such is the fact; and it is
now useful as at any period OF my life, and my
general health is better than it has been for years
past.
Health what magic in the word how many
thousands have sought il in foreign lands and
ny climes, and have sought in vain Yet il came
TO me when had been gwen UP TO die, and as ,
feel the pulsaton of health eoursinc through my
veins my whole heart and soul go forth in fer
vent gratitude to the Author Of all our sure mer.
cies that be has been gracously pleased 10 bless

yourself the good Samaritan to the afflicted, for

such medicine is countless beyond price money
