Poisoned by ScrOfula

Is the story of many lives made misera
ble through no fault of their own. Scrof
ula is more especially than any other a
hereditary disease. and for this simple
reason: Arising from impure and insult
ticient blood. the disease locates itself in
the lymphatics, which are composed of
white tissues; there is period Of foetal
life. when the whole body consists OF
white tissues. and therefore the unborn
child is especially susceptible to this
dreadful disease. But there is remedy
for scrofula. whether hereditary or ac-
quired. 1t is Hoods sarsaparilla. which
by its powerful effect on the blood, ex-
pels all trace of the disease, and gives to
the vital fluid the quality and color of
health. If you decide to take Hoods
sarsaparilla do not accept any substitute.

and upon her case becoming critical she
was at once removed to the Cottage hos.

the ward refused to lie on the bed and
persisted in lying on the floor. notwith-
standing the kind persuasion of the
doctor and nurse. Her nature predolnl-
mated, SO that the nurse placed the mat
tress upon the floor.
After being in the hospital "a hours.
Burah appeared to revive wonderfully
and in asking nurse for the doctor sln.
said. Medicine man good and, to us.
the nurses own words, Burah bore her
acute suffering with the greatest pa
tience and was an example to many Eng
lish people. Later, her case became less
hopeful. and she overheard the nurse say,
"Burah is weaker" and their black pa
tient quickly answered.:
"Yes, rze weaker" and looking very
earnestly in the face of the nurse Burah
held up her hands and drew the nurse S
attention to her finger nails, which Were

tears rolled down her cheeks. Burah
