Ho writes: " For eight years, I was, most of tits tlma, a great sufferer from constlpv tlon, kidney trouble, and Indiges- tion, so that my constitution seemed to be completely broken down. I wss Induced to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and took nearly seron bottles, with such excellent results that my stomach, bowels, and kRInoy* nro In perfect con- dltlon, and. In all their functions, as regular as clock-work. At the tima I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, my weight was only 129 pounds ; I now can brag of 100 pounds, and was nerer In so good health. If you could see me bo- fore and after using, yon would want me for a traveling advertisement. I believe this preparation of Sarnaparilla to be the best In the market to-day."
