the head is by far the most common, and the
most liable TO be neglected. It cannot be
cured BY local applications. Being consti-
tutional disease It requires
Ringing constitutional remedy like
Aoi>a. Hoods Sarsaparilla, which.
working through tho blood,
eradicates the impurity which causes and pro-
notes the catarrh, and soon effects permar
nent cure. At the same time Hoods Sarsa-
parilla builds up the whole system, and makes
one feel renewed in strength
and health. II you sufIer Impure
from catarrh, be sure to nlooI
try Hoods Sarsaparlla.
II used Hoods Sarsaparilla for catarrb, and
received great relief and benefit from it. The
