As . Well as Ever
After Taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
Cured of a Serious' Disease.
"I was suffering from what is known as
Bright's disease for live years, and for days at a
time I have been unable to straighten mysell
up. I was in bed for three weeks; during that
time I had leeches applied and derived no bene-
fit. Seeing Hood's Sarsaparilla advertised in
the papers I decided to try a bottle. I found
relief before I had finished taking half of a bot-
tle. I got so much help from taking the first
bottle that I decided to try another, and since
taking the second bottle f feel as well as ever
I did inniylife," GEO. 11'IERRETT,Toronto, Ont.

"Dear Sirs—I felt it my duty to let you know
the good Flood's Sarsaparilla has done for me.
I have been troubled with summer complaint
for years, unable to do anything. I tried
everything but seemed to get no relief. Then
I became a victim of the grip and was left ins
dreadful state, so weak I could scarcely Mork
and when I did I worked inmisery. The doctor
said I had Bright's disease. My kidneys were
in dreadful condition. I found one of your
papers at my door, and on reading It decided to

give Hood's Sarsaparilla a trial, thinking at the
time it was not much use as nothing helped me
before. But, thank God, I got relief after the
first bottle. I kept on taking it and used five
bottles ; am now a cured man; never felt better.
I have loudly recommended Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla, for I owe my life to it and nope this may
be the means of leading others to give it a fair
trial." JOSHUA. SMITa, Norwich Ave., Wood-

Rheumatism is.eaused by lactic acid in

blood vitality and richness and tones
the whole body, neutralizes the acidiy
of the blood and thus cures rheumatism.
