Rev. Father Wilds'
EXPERIENCE.

The Rev. z. p. Wilds, well-known city
missionary in New York, and brother of the
late eminent Judge Wilds, of the Massachu-
setts Supreme Court, writes as follows:
';Ts E. 5ith ST., Ne,r York, Nay 16, 1882
MEssRs. j. c. AVER & Co., Gentlemen:
Last winter was troubled with a most uncon-
Portable itching humor affecting more especially
my limbs, which itched so intolerably at night,
and burned so intensely that could scarcely bear
any clothing over them. 1 was also sufferer
from severe catarrh and catarrhal cough my
appetite was poor, and my system good deal run
down. Knowing the value of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, by observation of many other cases, and
from personal use in former years, began taking
it for the above-named disorders. My appetite
improved almost from the first dose. After q
short time the fever and itching were allayed and
all signs of irritation of the skin disappeared My
catarrh and cough were also cured by the same
MEANS and my general health greatly improved,
until it is now excellent. feel a hundred per
cent stronger and attribute these results to the
use of the SARSAPARILLA, which recommend
with all confidence as the best blood medicine
ever devised. took it in small doses three
times day, anG used, in ALL less than two bottles.
place these facts at your service, hoping their
publication may do good.
Yours respectfully, 2. P. WILDs."
The above instance is but one of the many con-
stantly coming to our notice, which prove the per-
feet adaptability of AYERS SARsAPARILLA to
the cure of all diseases arising from impure or i'm
poyerished blood, and weakened vitality.
