TESTIMONIALS.

II commenced your improved Koch
treatment November 20. AT the end Of
one month I felt little better Now,
after three months treatment. l am hap
py to say that have not felt as we'll in
four years Have gained fifteen pounds In
weight. The cough is almost gone. The
thick, dark matter which I coughed up
has disappeared; so have all the fever
symptoms. l am gaining in strength
steadily. I feel so confident that your
treatment will cure consumption that l
would recommend any one who has
symptoms of this disease to seek relief
by your improved Koch treatment.

The New Boulevard in
Elysian Park
MUCH HAS BEEN COMPLETED
A VISIT OF INSPECTION BY
PROMINENT CITIZENS
Pledges That Efforts Will Be Made to
Garry It Out to Its Logical
Conclusion

A large party went out to Elysian
park yesterday afternoon to inspect the
work that has been done by the unem-
ployed under the direction of the execu
tive committee of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association. Three
large tallyhos had been placed at the
disposal of the committee, who had in
vited the members Of the park commits
sion, city officials, members Of the press
and a number of we'll known citizens to
make the trip. The party left the rooms
Of the Merchants and Manufacturers
association at olcock, and proceeded
to the park by way of the new Buena
Vista street gateway, which has been
named Fremont entrance. Arriving at
this point the visitors disembarked and
spent some minutes in inspecting the
work already done. To say that they
were surprised is putting 1t mildly. A
beautiful entrance has been made, and
Z magnificent boulevard has been grad
ed complete for some hundred feet. Not
only this. but substantial retaining walls
have been built, wide cement sidewalk
laid. guard rails placed alongside Of the
driveway, and the hillsides terraced for
flower beds The whole face OF the park
has been changed at this point, and the
entrance, when completed. will be one
of the handsomest to any park in the
west But this is not all. Every par
ticle Of the work has been done by the
unemployed at one dollar per day, and
not a single man has been thrown out
Of days work by reason of this mag
nificent Improvement by emergency la
bor which will stand as permanent
monument to the generosity Of the peo-
pie of Los Angeles.
After looking over the work, the in
vited guests again embarked on the tall
lyhos and started for Fremont summit,
from which one Of the grandest views
In the state can be obtained. A number
of private conveyances had Joined the
party. and the procession started over
the new road for the summit. This road
has been laid out on a per cent grade,
and when completed will be over 1000
! feet In length. 1t Is splendid piece Of
work. and would reflect credit on pro-
fessional road builders. Connections
had been graded. partially however.
and the visitors were enabled to drive
to the summit without difficulty.

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Humors = How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula ON his face, hands and arms. It
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. Alter disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep hinf
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
1t to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned.f
