.Messry A. B. s. D. Sands
Gentlemen: have just received a letter from my
father in Russeville, Ky, who wishes to purchase
some of your Sarsaparilla. have no doubt he can
be the means of selling great deal, as it has per-
formed a wonderful cure in his family. Last De-
cember was sent for to my sister before she
died, she having been in poor health for some two
three years, and at the time went over to see her,
she at the point of death with the scarlet fever
and cancerous affection Of the bowels, from which
her physician thought she could not possibly
carried over with bottle Of your Sarsaparilla,
and with the consent of her physician, she COM
menced taking it that night remained with her
three days, and left her rapidly improving. Her
husband sent boy home with me for more of the
lieve will effect an entire cure. My father writes
me to that effect, and wishes through me to procure
an agency for selling your valuable medicine in that
neighborhood. Respectfully, J. M. OWENS.

Gentlemen: Parental feelings induce us to make
the following statement of facts in relation to the
important of our little daughter, wholly effected
by the use of Sands's Sarsaparla. For nearly three
years she was afflicted with most inveterate erup-
ton on the body which at times SO bad, connect
ed with internal disease, that despaired of her
life. The complaint commenced in the roots of the
hair, and gradually spread until the whole head was
eveloped and then it attacked the ears and ran down
the neck, and continuing to increase until it covered
the most Of the body. 1t commenced with q 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 suferings
OF the child were so great as almost wholly to pre-
vent natural rest, and the odor from the discharges
so offensive, to make it difficult to pay that partc-
ular attention the nature of the required. The
disease was called Scald Head and general Salt
Rheum. We tried various remedies, with little ben.
eft, and considered her almost beyond the reach
of medicine; but from the known virtue of your
Sarsaparia, we were induced to give it a 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,
would say--lf you have children suffering with any
disease Of the skin, Sands's Sarsaparila. With
feelings OF gratitude and respect, we yours, SC.

minent physicians Of the place, who recommended |
your preparation Of Sarsaparila knowing of nothing
that would be as likely to help me; which advice |
