Ohio Woman Suffered Great Agony
From a Terrible Sore Her Story of
the Case, and Her Cure.
"For many years I was afflicted with a
milk leg, and a few years ago it broke out
In a sore and spread (rum my foot to my
knee. I suffered great agony It would
burn and Itoh all the tune and discharge
a groat deal. My health was good with
the exception of this soro. 1 tried a great
many kinds ot salve, but some would
irritate the sore so that I could hardly
stand the pain. I could not go near the
Are without suffering Intensely. Someone
sent me papers containing testimonials of
euros by Hood's SarsaparlllR, and I told
my huBband I would like to try this med
icine. Ho got me a bottle and I found it
helped me. I kept on taking it until my
limb was completely healed. I cannot
praise Hood's Sarsaparilla enough for the
great benefit it lias been to me. It
cleanses the blood of all impurities and
leaves it rich and pure." Mas. Anna E.
Eakhn, Whittlesey, Ohio.
You can buy Hood's Sarsaparilla of all
