The body Of the captain was heavily cloth

Now is the Time.

The benefit to be derived from a good
medicine In early spring is undoubtsd
but many people neglect taking any
until the approach of warmer weather,
when they wilt like tender flower In a
hot sun. Something must be done to
purify the blood, overcome that tired
feeling and give necessary strength
Vacation Is earnestly longed for, but
many weeks, perhaps months, must
elapse before rest can be INDUCED In.
To impart strength, and to give feeling
of health aud vigor throughout the

TO overcome that prostrAtion caused by

while it tones and sustains the system 1t
