    was capable of bearing. I have been under the care of the most distinguished phySJCmaa, both in this country and in England, visited Bath, Cheltenham, Bristol, and Gloucester, tried various specifics, among others ;i large quantity of Swaun's Pan I sulphur baths, &c&c As a last resort 1 was induced to wrap myself in tar ointment, keep myself secluded, shunned by all, myself also shunning. I was induced to he-he ve my caso a hopeless one. In August last, by the advice of friends, I went to the New York City Hospital, but was there told that my case was incurable. The disease now enveloped my whole body, ren- dering me almost helpless; the .-km thickened and cracked, and blood and matter ran, and life itself became almost a burden A few weeks since I was induced to use your Sarsaparilla by bearing it so highly recommended, having spent nearly $3,000 without obtaining but little relief After using it a short time, 1 found myself better, and now, by using six or eight bottles, costing me less than ten dollars, 1 am well. Yes, 1 certify and declare to the world, that after spending near $3,000 in travelling and doctoring, and suf- fering more than can be told, 1 was perfectly cured by using your invaluable preparation of Sarsaparilla; and 1 now recommend it to all similarly afflicted. Those wisbin know further particulars will fmd me at my residence, No. 27 Warren-street, New York, where I shall be happy to communicate any thing in relation to the above cure. PAUL BURDOCK. ITS OWN WORKS PROCLAIM IT.—Let the following speak for itself: Nero York, August 16, 1842. Messrs. Sands: Gentlemen—Owing to you a debt Which money cannot pay, I am in- duced to make a public acknowledgmenj of the benefit I have derived from your (to me) invaluable preparation of Sarsaparilla. I was sorely afflicted with a terrible scrofulous disease, hereditary in our family, which commenced on my neck, and continuing to spread, soon reached n;\ ears, running into my head, and extending all over my I neck, arms, and lower extremities. 1 became a disgusting object to look upon. At times my distress was bat I was unable to sleep or lay down, and the disease extend- ing into in;. ously affected my hearing. My face was one continuous sore, from which a discharge of matter and water kept continually oozing out. People avoided me, supposing I had the small-pox, or some other infectious disease, and I was consequently obliged to relinquish my business. Notwithstanding 1 had the lx st medical advice, and tried different plans of treatment, the disease continued to grow worse, until I gave up in despair. Fortunately for me, I chanced to fall in with a lady on hoard a railroad car, while travelling for my health, who informed me that her sou was at one time in as bad a condition as I was, and that by using your Sarsaparilla he was speedily cured. I imme- diately procured the article and commenced using it, and now, after having used less than six bottles, I am well and able to attend to my business. I send you this statement as an act of justice, only hoping that it may induce the afflicted to make use of the right medi- cine, and thereby save them much suffering and expense. Those wishing to learn fur- ther particulars concerning my case, will find me at 207 Greenwich-street, where it will afford me great pleasure to communicate any thing in relation to the above. I am, with gratitude, yours, &c. AMOS DENMAN.
