True Svmpathv.

When one is afflicted with any form of blood disease he certainly appreci ates true sympathy. It should be remembered. however. that true sympathy docs not consist in saying, "l am sorry for you" but the sympathy must be shown in a material way. Either get or recommend a remedy that Will cure. This is true sympathy. When the fair skin is dis figured by blotches. and the complexion blcmished by pimples. when unyielding sores. bols and carbuncles break out on the person, when the blood impurities impair the digestive functions. when the urinary organs show signs of decay. when the lungs grow weak and the whole sys- tenn feels achy and feeble, when the appe tite fails. when life seems burden and existence painful. then will it be true sympathy to recommend to the sufferer a use of Dr. John Bulls Sarsaparilla, for just so sure as daylight follows darkness will this remedy rid him of his aiflictions and restore him to sound, robust. enjoy able health. .-Nanchester News.
