BE CnrefnlN Now

This is the most treacherous season of
the year, when there Is q great inclina.
ton TO anticipate real spring weather by
letting fires go out and chaning clothing
on the first warm day. The temptation
to do so should be resisted, however, for
the changes of temperature are sudden
and violent, and until the earth gets
warmed up by succession of hot days,
II Is not safe TO depend on the effects of
sunshine alone. Troublesome colds and
serious throat disorders sometimes re-
suit from haste TO discard fiannels or to
let nres go out in the early spring. 1t is
better 10 suffer little discomfort than to
run any risk to health.

The Spring,

OF all seasons In the year, is the one for
making radical changes in regard to
health. During the winter, the system
becomes to a certain extent clogged with
waste, and the blood loaded with impure
ties, owing to lack of exercise, close con-
finement In poorly ventilated shops and
homes, and other causes. This lie the
cause of the duh, sluggish, tired feeling
so general ut this season, and which
must be overcome, or the health may be
entirely broken down. Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla has attained the greatest popularity
all over the country as the favorite
Spring Medicine. 1t expels the accumu-
lation of impurities through the bowels,
kidneys. liver, lungs and skin, gives to
the blood the purity and quality neces-
sary to good health and overcomes that
tired feeling.
