ScrofuIa Humor
.Nry Daughter,s Life WA. Saved,


"In regard co my little daughter, whose life
was saved, as we believe, by Hoods Sarsaparilla,
would say that before she was six months old
scrofula sores began to appear on different parts
of her body. and In short time she had running
sores. Two physicians were called but they gave
us no hope. One them advised the amputation
of one of her fingers, to which we refused assent.
Our attention was called to Hoods Sarsaparilla,
and we began to give it to her. A marked i'm
provement was noticed after she had taken only
one bottle, and by continued use of 1t her re-
covery was complete. And she is now, being
seven years old, strong and healthy. The other
members of my family have been greatly beEe-
flied by Hoods Sarsaparlla, and recommend it
as an excellent blood purifier" B. c. JONES,
