Weak Nerves

Indicate as surely rs any physical
symptom shows anything, that the or
gans and tissues OF the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their snstenance from
the blood, and II the blood is thin, i'm
pure or insufficient, they are In state
Of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the body,
through the nervous system, and the
result Of the general dissati atisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This Is a concise, reasonable expla-
ration Of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, xhen, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs win have
the healthful nourishme.t they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness win then
give way to strength and health.
That this 10 not theory but fact is
proven by the voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.

by his government will leave the rela-
tions between this government and Ha-
waii In q peculiar co0kltion. IL cannot DO
said that there Ia rupture az diplomatic
relations. but they will certainly be 30
verely strained.
u is customary In ordinary cases where

manently for him to present his letters OF
recall to the president and take his leave.
But, as Mr.. Thurston has not been re-
called, he cannot do this.
