about two years ago, I nursed lady
who was suffering and finally died from
blood poisoning. I must have contracted
the disease from her; for shortly after her
death. I had four large sores or ulcers,
break out on my person. I doctored for a
long time, both by external application
and with various blood medicines; but, IN
spite of all that could do. the sores would
not heal. They were obstinate, very pain
full. annoying. and only getting worse all
the time. At last I purchased six bottles
Of DrAyer's Sarsaparilla, thinking would
