inform you that our son Claud, whom you
cured (by your electric process) of sore and
running ears two years ago. has cont ued
sound and well ever since, and he has not
been troubled in any way with his ears
since. His hearing is just as good as can
be. We take this method to express our
gratitude and to thank you for the good
you have been to us in the cure of our son.
As health is untold wealth, money could
not purchase the benefit the cure has been
to us. Refer any one to us. Respectfully,

THE TEMPLE OF THE MIND FEAR
FULLY AND WONDERFULLY

Author Unknown.l
Behold this ruin; twas a skull
Once of ETHEREAL spirit full;
This narrow cell was life's retreat,
This space was thoughts mys, SERIOUS seat;
What beauteous visions filled this spot,
What dreams of pleasures long forgot;
Nor hope, nor love, nor joy, nor fear
Have left no trace of record here"
Beneath this Wondering canopy
Once shOne the bright and busy eye;
But, start not al the dismal void,
If social love that eve emplO ed;
ii with no lawless fires it cleaned,
Q But, through the dew of Kindness beamed,
That eye shall be forever bright
When stars and suns have lost their light"
I" Here in this silent cavern hung
The ready, wifi and tuneful tongue;
If falsehOod's honey is disdained
And where it could not praise was chained
If bold in virtues cause it spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke;
That tuneful tongue shall plead for thee
When death unveils eternity"

SEATTLE, Feb. %, 1890.
On the 18th of September. 1889, called
upon DR.. Jordan with what the doctors
said was inflammatory rheumatism. My
right hand was the size of four, and had
not heen able to sleep for several nights.
DR.. Jordan prescribed for me and told me
to obtain some small bottles in which to
put the medicine. I thereupon vent into
a Seattle drug store and asked for some
bottles, remarking that wanted them to
put DIR. Jordan's medicine into. A lady
who was present gratuitously remarked
that DR.. Jordan was a quack. paid no
attention to this, as had previous expe-
rience with the doctor, who relieved me Of
a misery in which other eminent physi-
clans failed. In just two weeks I could
write with my hand, and it has been well
ever since. The only objection I have got
is that I paid So for the medicine and got
well before 1 used one-half of it, and now
l have So worth of medicine l have no use
for, which is aggravating.

impurities which have accumulated in the blood

the mild days come, and the effect of bracing air
is lost, the body is liable to be overcome by de-

success achieved by Hoods sarsaparilla, and the
many words of praise it has received, make ii
worthy your confidence. We ask you to give this
medicine trial Weare sure it will do you good
