(hills and Fever.
"On Nov. 'S3, 1884, I went home sick
with inflammation of the lungs, and was
attacked every other day by chills and
fever. I did not go out again for four
weeks. I also have had for years rheu-
matism, kidney complaint, and catarrh,
which T considered incurable. My wife
induced me to take Hood's Sarsaparilla,
and now I am cured of everything except
the rheumatism. Even that is growing
less every day, and I expect to be soon
relieved of it. I am 09 years of age, but
can walk half a mile every day to the
cars, and go to my business in New York
City. I took no medicine bid Hood's
Sarsaparilla while I was confined to the
house, and I earnestly urge all who suffer
from diseases caused by impure blood to
try it." H. S. Foster, Scarborough,
