Just What's NeedAd

exclaim thousands of people who
have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at this
season of the year. and who have noted
the successes of the medicine In giving
them relief from that tired feeling,
waning appetite and state of extreme
exhaustion after the close confinement
of long winter season, the busy time
attendant upon large and pressing
business during the spring months and
with vacation time yet some weeks dis
tant. 1t is then that the building-up
powers of Hoods SareaDarilla are fully
appreciated. 1t seems perfectly adapted
to overcome that prostration caused by
change of season, climate Or life, and
while it tones and sustains the system,
it puriies and yitaIizes the blood.
