BABY'S SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN A Grateful Moi'ner Writes this Letter Tells all about Her Troubles when Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores. " At the age of two months, my baby began to have sores break out on his right cheek. We used all the external ap plications that we could think or hear of, to no avail. The sores spread all over one Bide of his face. We consulted a physi cian and tried his medicine, and In a week the sore was gone. But to my surprise in two weeks more another scrofulous look ing sore appeared on baby's arm. It grew worse and worse, and when he was three months old, I began giving him Hood's Sarsaparilla, I also took Hood's Barsaparilla, and before the first bottle was finished, the sores were well and have never returned. He is now four years old, bat he has never had any sign of those scrofulous sores since he was cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, for which I feel very grateful. My boy owes his good health and smooth, fair skin to this great med icine." Mrs. 8. S. weoten, Farming ton, Delaware.
