The Londonderry sifter. (South Londonderry, Vt.) 1883-19??, 1894-04-27
Exeter, N. H.

&C. I. Hood 3 Co.. Lowell, Mass:
II cannot praise Hoods Sarsaparilla enough
for what 1t has done for my boy. Some four
years ago, when six years old, George was
attacked by hip disease in his right leg. We
had to get him pair Of crutches, with which
he was able to move about, but became
lanced Just above the knee In few weeks
second sore broke out both discharging freely.
Agonizing pains afflicted him, he could not bear
to be moved, his growth was stopped and
He Was q Mere Skeleton.
He had no appetite, and It was hard work to
make him eat enough to keep him alive. A few
weeks later we had bis hip lanced, and follow
ing this five other eruptions broke out making
eight running sores in all. We did all we could
for him, but he grew weaker every day, al
though we had three OF the best physicians.
As last resort we were prevailed upon
by relatives who had taken Hoods Sarsa-
parilla with beneficial results to give the medl-
cine trial We got one bottle about the first
Of March, 1892, and he had taken the medicine
only few days when his appetite began to
improve. When he had taken ono bottle he
could move about little with his crutches
which he had not been able to use for the pre-,
ceding three months We continued faithfully
with Hoods Sarsaparilla, and in 8 months he was
Able to Be Dressed
and 60 about the house without the crutches
He has now taken Hoods Sarsaparilla regularly
for eighteen months, and for the past six months
has been without the crutches, which he has
outgrown by several inches. The sores hare all
healed with the exception OF one which Is
rapidly closing. only the scars and an occasional
limp remaining as reminders Of his suffering.
