FROM Washington
How a Little Coy was Saved.

Washington, d. G. -'' When our
bow was about Is months old he broke
out with rash which was thought to
be measles. In few days he had a
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be humps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lance the sore,
but would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became q running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered blood medicine. A
neighbor told me of a case somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. | decided to
give it to my boy and in short while
his health improved and his neck
kaled so nicely that | stopped giving
R the medicine. The sore broke
again, however. whereupon again

form and is compounded in correct pro-
portions. The reason imitators do not
advertise their formula is because they
know you would not buy their medicine

Owing to the nervous strain to which they
are daily subjected, the physical fardships

of kidney disease, and the standard remedy
in use by them is Warmers Safe Cure.

outfit Of teams of our own, but their num-
Der was soon deDleted by the iBroads of
disease called the mink eye. which killed
several horses and weakened the remain
der 10 such an extent that they were I'M
able TO do their work properly. We found
il exceedingly difficult to hire teams dur
