J. the tranquility of the mind among the
most important objects for which man lives and for
which the sages of antiquity labored with ncessant
| and unremittmg toll. The constitution of man was
their study in order to discover the seat of his mala
DIES, and source of all his corporal misery. To al
lesats the dropping spirits, to inspire confidence to
the lponding mind, and ease the sorrowed heart,
all the arts and arguments of their philosophy and
powers OF reason were turned. Among the varied
branches Of worldly learning, there can be none
equal in imp 'rtance to that of the Healing Art for
the soul in diseased body may be apty compared
to the martyr in his dungeon, which retains its real
value, but has lost IFS usefulness. Many most dis
eases have their origin in an impure or impoverished
state of the Blood and this being fluid sui geners,
extending to the most minute ramifcations of the
system, the subtle poison is infused, and the seed
being sown brings forth fruit in abundance; in one
instance causing swelling of the glands resulting
in Scrofula or Kings Evi-in another. Justification

which is the result Of years Of labor and chemical
research, in bringing it to its present state of pertec

action giving tone to the general energies Of the sys-

bringing with it health and renewed vigor.

Gentlemen: Parental feelings induce us to make
the following statement of facts in relation to the
important cure of our little daughter, wholly effected
ny the use of Sandss Sarsaparla. For nearly three
years she was afflicted with most nveterate erup-
ton the body which at times was SO bad connect
q al fhaf,p laa l>fI 49,,
life The complaint commenced in the roots of the
hair, and gradually spread until the whole head was
evel"PeI, 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
plmple or pustue, from which water at first dis
charged; thus produced great itching and burning;
then matter or pus formed the skin cracked and
bled, and the pus discharged freely The suferings
OF the child were SO great as almost wholly to pre-
vent natural rest and the odor from the discharges
so Offensive as to make it difficult to pay that partic
ular attention the nature of the required The
disease was called Scald Head and general Salt
Rheum. We tried various remedies with little ben.
eht, and considered her almost beyond the reach
of medicine; but from the known virtue Of your
Sarsapara, we were induced to give ii 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 we
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, use Sands's Sarsaparilla With
feelings Of gratitude and respect, are yours Sc

OF blood and the pain Of the wound, that was un-

the whole winter were more than can tell. With
the advice of my friends, called two Of the most

your preparation of SarsapariIa knowing of nothing
