HumOrs I'm the Stomach.

Much of the distress and sickness attribu-
ted to dyspepsia, chronic diarrhea and other
causes is occasioned by humor in the stom-
ach. Several cases. with all the character
istics of these complaints, have been cured
by Hoods Sarsaparilla. Other cures effected
by this medicine are wonderful that the
simplest statement of them affords the best
proof that it combines rare curative agents
and when once used secures the confidence
of the people.
