That Little Tickling

In your throat which makes you cough once
in while and keeps you constantly clearing
your throat, arises from catarrh, and as
catarrh is a constitutional disease the ordi-
nary cough medicines all fail TO hit the spot.
What you need is a constitutional remedy
like Hoods Sarsaparilla. Many people who
have taken this medicine for scroiula, dys-
pepsia loss of appetite, and other troubles,
have been surprised that II should cure this
troublesome cough. But to know the actual
cause of the cough is to solve the mystery.
Many cases of consumption can be traced
back TO the neglect Of some such slight afiec-
ton as this. Consumption can be controlled
in its early stages, and the effect OF Hood $
Sarsaparilla in purifying the blood, building
up the general health, and eXpelling the
scrofulous faint which is the cause OF catarrh
and consumption, has restored TO perfect
health many persons on whom this dreaded
disease seemed TO have a firm hold.

The Ladies Delighted.

The pleasant effect and the perfect
safety with which ladies may use the
liquid fruit laxative, Syrup of Figs,
under all conditions make it their
favorite remedy. 1t is pleasing to the
eye and TO the taste, gentle, yet etfec-
tual in acting on the kidneys, liver
and bowels.

for this disease, which 1t cures by purifying
