have derived from the use of _

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
Six months ago I was completely covered with
a terrible humor an<l scrofulous sores. Th«
humor caused an incessant and intolerabls
itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause
the blood to flow in many places whenever

life a burden. I commenced the use of th«
S arsaparilla in April last, and have used
it regularly since that time. My condltiOB
