WEAK nerves

Indicate as surely as any physical symp-
tom shows anything, that the organs
and tissues of the body are not satisfied
with their nourishment.
They draw their s~ustenance from the
blood, and if the blood is thin, impure,
or insufficient, they are in a state OF re-
volt. Their complaints are made to
the brain, the king of the body, through
the v system, and the result OF
the general dissatisfaction is what we
call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable explana-
ton Of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have the
healthful nourishment they crave. Ner-
vousness and Weakness will then give
way to strength and health,
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements Of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.
