day: Mrs. Bowen, did you ever try DR..

l had never heard of the mdicine but in

anything that offered relief. 1t was after
considerable thought and investigation
that i concluded to discontinue all the
medicine l was taking, including cod

Pills. l began to take the pills, at first
with but little encouragement. The first
sign of improvement was warmth and
a tihgling sensation in my limbs. Finally
the cough disappeared, my chest lost its
soreness and l began to gain flesh until

Spring Makes Me Tired

To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs, and
throbbing nerves. Just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane and "that tired feeling" is the
complaint of all.
The reason for this condition is found
in the deficient quality of the blood.
During the winter, owing to various
causes, the blood becomes loaded with
impurities and loses its richness and
vitality. Consequently, as soon as The
bracing effect of cold air is lost, there
is languor and lack Of energy. The
cure will be found in purifying and IN
riching the blood.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
and best spring medicine because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier. 1t
Dyercomes that tired feeling because it
Union County courier. [volume] (Elk Point, Union County, D.T. [S.D.]) 187?-1913, 1895-05-16

makes pure, rich blood. 1t gives strength
to nerves and muscles because it en-
dows the blood with new powers OF
nourishment. 1t creates an appetite,
tones and strengthens the stomach and
digestive organs, and thus builds up the
whole system and prepares it to meet
the change to warmer weather.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is medicine upon
which you may depend. 1t is the only
true blood purifier prominently before
the public eye to-day. 1t has a record
Of cures unequaled in the history OF
medicine. Ii is the medicine of which
so many people write, Hoods Sarsapa-
ril!a does all that it is claimed to do"
You can take Hoods Sarsaparilla with
the confident expectation that it will
give you pure blood and renewed
health. Take it now.

When q Trout Is Hungry.

A curious incident, showing that
trout will not be easily frightened
from hook when they are hungry,
is told by a Maine sportsman. He
felt good bite, but before he could
haul in the fish it broke loose and
getaway. He readjusted his bait and
made another cast In q minute the
hook was again taken, and he pulled
in q two pound trout. 1t was hooked
in the side of the mouth, while upon
the other side a piece more than an
inch long had been torn from the
jaw, and the wound was still bleed
ing. This showed conclusively it was
the same fish that had just taken the
hook and had got away. The singular
part was that a fish so badly wound
ed should bite q second time.-Ban-
