blindness. She suffered intense pain ano
kept her head buried in the pillows most
OF the time. If light was admitted to the
room she would cry as if burned with 8
hot iron. AS she was badly run down we
thought before continuing the treatment
we would try to build up her system and
renew her strength. We began giving her
Hoods Sersaparilla. She began to
improve Rapidly
and by the time she had finished taking
the first bottle we were able to remove the
bandages and found that she could bear
the light and that the sight was returning
much to our delight. She took several
bottles and then was as well as ever. It is
now year since, and her eyes

Saved Her Sight

Another Wonder Performed by
HOODS Sarsapariiie.
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 inn
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 Gone.
That it was doubtful if she would ever be
able to see any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.

As worked north l would leave nroyision storehouses so thick that any man who entered that country within ten years would be sure to find plenty to eat. Iwonld thus work around the coast until the point was reached for the last grand dash to the pole by sledge or boat.
 From this point it is his desire to leave all whites behind and torely upon Eskimos. When Greedy stood upon the summit of the great Greenland Ice mountain, he saw chain of islands III the direction of the pole. Following his plan.
