Scrofula
Is one of the roost fatal scourges which
afflict mankind. It is often inheritedbut
maybe the result of improper vaccination, .,
mercurial poisoning, uncleanliness, and
various other causes. Chronic Sores,
Ulcers, Abscesses, Cancerous Humors,
and, in some cases, Emaciation, and Con
sumption, resultT from a scrofulous condi
tion of the blood. This disease can be
cured by the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
I inherited a scrofulous condition of the ;
blood, which caused a derangement of my
whole system... After taking less than
four bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla I am
Entirely Cured
and, for the past year, have not found it
necessary to uso any medicine whatever.
I am now in better health, and1 stronger,
than ever before. O.,. A. "Willard, 218
Tremout st., Boston, Mass. -
I was troubled with Scrofulous Sores -for
five years ; but, after using a few
-bottles of Aver's Sarsaparilla, the sores
healed, and I have now gooa health.
Elizabeth Waruock, 54 -Appleton street,
Lowell, Mass. ; ;
Some months ago t was troubled with
Scrofulous Sores on my . leg. The limb
was badly swollen and inflamed, and the
sores discharged large quantities of offen
sive matter. Every remedy failed, until
I used Ayer's Sarsaparilla. By taking
three bottles of this medicine the .sores
have been entirely healed, and my health
is fuUy restored. I. am grateful for the ;
good this medicine has done me. Mrs.
Ann O'Brlan, 158 Sullivan st., New York.
