Out of Jthe Fire
Tormented icith Salt JBfceuut
Cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Only those who have suffered from salt
rheum in its worst form know the agonies
caused by this disease. Hood's Sarsapa
rilla has had great success in curing salt
Thews, and all affections of the Wood.
" I owo the gratitude to Hood's Sarsapa
rilla that one would to his rescuer from a
Burning BuildingJE
with salt rheum, and had to leave off work
altogether. My face, about the eyes, would
he swollen and scabbed, my hands and a
part ol my body would be raw sores for
weeks at a time, my flesh would seem so
rotted that I could roll pieces from between
my fingers as large as a pea. One
physician called it typo pniQftn
and gave me medicine accord- r J 1 0 U 1 1
ingly; but salt rheum cannot be cured in
that way. Finally I bought a bottle ol
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It helped me so much
that I took two more bottles, and was
Entirely Cured LiS-SS
with salt rheum since. I also used Hood's
Olive Ointment on the places affected. It
stops the burning and itching sensation im
mediately. I will recommend Hood's Sar
saparilla not only for salt rheum, but for
SB Loss of Appetite
'all-gone' feeling so often experienced."
