Saved Her Sight
Another Wonder Performed by
Hoods SarsapariIIa.

my little girl Hazel is now four years
old. Two years ag she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew inflamed and sup
turated. For over 7 months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in dark
room. The family doctor and an oculist
did everything possible. She did not i'm
prove and even grew worse. At last after
six months he gave US the discouraging
opinion that the cornea of one eye was de-
stroyed
And Sight Entirely Cone.
That it was doubtful if she would ever be
able to gee any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.
