issue proclamation making Thursday,
April 18th, Arbor Day, in accordance

change was suggested because April 11th
was Holy Thursday. but the Governor

Hoods Sarsaparilla has achieved great
success in warding off sickness which,
if allowed to progress, would have un-
dermined the whole system and given
disease strong footh0ld to cause much
suffering and even threaten death
Hoods SarDaparilla has done all this
and even more. 1t has been taken in
thousands Of cases which were thought
to be incurable, and after fair trial has
effected wonderful cures, bringing
health, strength and joy to the afflicted.
Another important point about Hoods
Sarsaparilla is that its cures are perma-
nent, because they start from the solid
foundation of purified, yitalized and en-
riched blood. But it isnot what we say
but what Hoods Sarsaparilla does that
