.MeSsrs Sands
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 of Sandss Sarsaparilla For nearly three
years she afflicted with most nveterate erup-
ton 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
evelopeJ 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
pimpe 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 great as almost wholly to pre-
vent natural rest and the odor from the discharges
offensive as to make it difficult to pay that partic-
ular attention the nature of the required The
disease was called Scad Head and general Salt
Rheum We tried various remedies, with little ben.
eft and considered her almost beyond the reach
Of incidence but from the known virtue Of your
Sarsaparilla, 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 rapid for the better, that VIC
could scarcely give credence to the evidence of our
own eyes. We continued its for few weeks
and the result is perfect cure. To parents we
would say---lf you have children suffering with any
disease of the skin use Sands's Sarsaparilla With
feelings Of gratitude and respect we are yours, Sc

and for many weeks | was SO reduced with the loss
of blood and the pain Of the wound, that was UNI
able to turn myself in bed and my sutterings during
the whole winter were more than can tell With
the advice of my friends, | called two of the most
eminent physicians of the place, who recommended
your preparation of SarsapariIla, knowing of nothing
that would be as likely to help me; which advice
readily received, and before had taken one bottle,
found change in my feelings which induced me to
take more, and when had taken the third bottle,
like another person both in health and strength
have taken your preparation since last March, and
although the wound is not entirely healed, it is in a
very favorable state, and believe it will be the
means, ultimately, of my entire cure; and that the
afflicted may all find the relief which it alone can

DEAFNESS.

DR.. McNAIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL-Those deaf
from infancy often receive, in most miraculous
manner, their hearing when they least expect it, by
some triling accident event, which shows them
how easily they might have much sooner had their
hearing, and saved themselves and their friends the
pain of conversing in loud tone, without pleasure,
Of being neglected and summed to avoid that dis
tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and
his hearers. How sacred duty, therefore, it is
that we use all necessary means to remove such an
afliction and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
our natures This EAR OIL has the effect.so to re-
lieve the tension, and bring into the natural action
of the parts to restore the hearing when lost
impaired. This is proved by so many and wel-known
cases, that, where known, it needs no praise. The
great wish of the proprietor is, that each may speak
to others of its uncommon virtues, till sufferers may
know. and be relieved and restored by its use This
will be done in all cases of recent DEAFNESS and
many of. long standing. ALL DEAF PERSONS
should this Oil 1t will relieve at once, or, if
DEAFNESS is Just commencing, will remove the
cause and check its progress Those who have been
long deaf should continue Its application few weeks
