" Gentlemen : For 12 years I havo been
a commercial traveller, and owing to tho
hardships of my life, long railroad jumps,
all kinds ot exposure, and sudden changes
of climate, etc., my health gave way.
Physicians did not help mo and I was
given up to die. My illness developed a
Complication of Dlscasos.
I was without ambition or appetite. All
strength had left me. One doctor said I
had heart disease, another torpid liver,
a third eald it was lung trouble and
another consumption, and so on. I have
no doubt, symptoms ot all thesa com
plaints and even that ot rheumatism,
judging from tho stiffness and pains in
my Joints and legs at times, were mani
fest. I was unable to attend to business,
was confined to my room and frequently
lay in a comatose state for hours. I was so
feeble, and so little encouragement was
offered, that I began to wonder
Whoro I Would bo Burled.
Finally, as a last effort to help myself, I
decided to try Hood's Sarsaparilla. Tho

effects ot a few doses ot the medicino
seemed almost magical. The depressed
feeling left me, and when one bottle had
been taken, I had regained an appetito,
and strength was coming back. After
finishing tho third bottlo I was able to
go about my commercial duties. I con
tinued to Improve, and to satisfy my mind
that I had fully regained health, I sub
mitted myself to a doctor for examination.
Ho pronounced me 'sound as a dollar.'
Three months later, I passed a rigid ex
amination for insuranee. I havo since
been in the best ot health, notwithstand
ing my travels, and I give
All tho Credit to Hood's
Sarsaparilla, as each season since I have
taken several bottles. It keeps my blood
in good circulation, gives me a keen ap
petite and leaves no room for that tired
feeling which naturally finds easy prey
among those ot my calling in tho summer
months after an early spring hustle. I
consider Hood's Sarsaparilla the means
ot saving my life, and I gladly speak in
its favor." A. J. Leitch, home address,
