Bores would appear on him and apread until they were as large as a dollar, and then discharge, only to bo followed by others, so that the larger part ot his body was one mass ot sores all the lime. Tho scrofula was especially severe on his legs mid back ot his ears and on bis head, His hair was so matted that combing was sometimes Impossible. His ears became so thin that we could Bee through them, and were Actually ArrtAto iirer would or orr. nis legs were so bad that sometimes ho could not sit down, and It was Impossible for htm to run about and play like other children. Fre quently when bo tried to walk, his leg would crack open and the blood start from different places. The humor had a very offensive odor, and caused Intense Itching, so that at night we had to tie his hands In mittens or stockings to prevent his scratching aud tearing himself. We cannot tell now TIIAT poor nor suffered for nearly five years, nor how bis terrible con dition distressed us. We did all we could to relievo him. Twoor three physicians agreed In calling It scrofulous humor, but did not effect a cure. We tried salves and ointments and other things but without benefit. At lat I decided to give him Hood's Sarsaparilla, as MV DRUOOIST RECOMMF.MDED IT. In about two weeks the Sarsaparilla began to have effect.
