What is Scrofula
It Is thst Impurity In tbo blood, which, accumu
l&tlng la the glands of tlio ueck. produces un
sightly lumps or iwclUngii which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; lrulch
derelopei ulcers In the eyes, ears, or note, often
causing blindness or deafness ; which Is the origin
of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to " humors."
It Is a more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Ilelng the most ancient,
It Is the most general ot all diseases or affections,
for very few persons are entirely free from it.
How can It bo cured ? 11 y taking Hood's Sana
partlla, which, by the cures It has accomplished,
often when other medicines haro foiled, has
proren Itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections ot tho blood
Hood's garsaparilla Is unequalled, and somo of the
cures It has effected are really wonderful. If you
coffer from scrofula In any ot Its various forms,
bo euro to glre Hood's Sarsaporllla a trial.
