Gentlemen: Parental feelings induce us to make
the following statement of facts in relation to the
important cure Of our little daughter wholly effected
by the use of Sands's Sarsaparllla For nearly three
years she afflicted with most inveterate erup-
ton on the body, which at times so bad connect
ed with internal disease, that we despared of her
life. The complaint commenced in the roots of the
hair and gradually spread until the whole head was
eyeoped and then it attacked the ears and down
the neck, and continuing to increase, until it covered
the most Of the body 1t commenced with small
pimple or pustule, from which water at first dis
charged; this produced great itching and burning;
then matter pus formed, the skin cracked and
bled, and the pus discharged freely The sufcrings
OF the child were so great as almost wholly to pre-
vent natural rest, and the odor from the discharges
so offensive, to make difficult to pay that partic
ular attention the nature of the case required The
disease called Scald Head and general Salt
ltheum. We tried various remedies with little ben.
eft, and considered her almost beyond the reach
of medicine; but from the known virtue of your
Sarsapara, we were induced to give it trial
Before the first bottle was all used, we perceived
an improvement in the appearance of the eruption
but the change was SO rapid for the better, that
could scarcely give credence to the evidence of our
own eyes. We continued its use for few weeks,
and the result is perfect cure. To parents we
would say-If you have children suffering with any
disease Of the skin, Sands's Sarsaparilla With
feelings OF gratitude and respect, We are yours SC
