A MARVELOUS STORY

TOLD IN TWO LETTERS.

FROM THE SON: “yore;cce'oe ise”

** Gentlemen: My father resides at Glover, Vt. He bas been a great sufferer from Scrof- ula, anc the inclosed letter will tell you what @ marvelous eilect

Ayer's Sarsaparilla

has had in his ease. 1 think his blood must have contained the humor for at least ten yoars; but it did not show, except in the form of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five vears ago. From @ few spots which ap peared at that time, it gradually spread so as to cover his entire body. I assure you he was terribly afficted, and an object of pity, when he began using your medicine. Now, there are few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he has. [ could sasily name fifty persons who would testify to the facts in his case, Yours truly, W. M. PHILLIPS.”* “Tt is bothe

FROM THE FATHER: jrcasure anc

a duty for me to state to you the benefit I have derived from the use of

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

Six months ago 1 was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofnious sores. The humor caused an incessant and intolerable itching, and the skin cracked eo @§ to cause the blood to flow in many places Whenever I moved. My sufferings were great, and my life a barden, I commenced ths use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, avd have used it regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect — being now able to do @ good day's work, although 73 years of ago. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, AYER’S SARSAPARILLA. Glover, Vt, Oct.

21, 1882. Yours gratefully, HIRAM PHILLIPS,” AYER’s SARSAPARILLA ctres Scrofula

and all Scrofalous Complaints, Erysip- elas, Eczema, Ringworm, Blotches, Sores, Boils, Tumors, and Eruptions of the Skin. It clears the blood of all impu- rities, aids digestion, stimulates the action of the bowels, and thus restores vitality aad strengthens the whole system.
