Altogether the FIRE swept clear seven
blocks thiokly covered with houses,
some of them ilne residences. The FIRE
started In T. a. Masters blacksmith

big hotels sent their FIRE departments
and Colonel Bainbr<ge sent both COM
panies Of the Third artillery, United

Many tourists at the hotels also
rendered Assistance. It seemed at one

Nervousness

Is really only another name for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ner-
vous whose blood is perfectly pure.
When the blood is full OF the germs
Of disease, and lacking in the red cor
puscles which give it vitality, when it
fails to properly nourish the organs
and tissues of the body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner-
vousness?
OF course Scrofula, Salt Rheum,
Catarrh and Rheumatism are uni
versally recognized as blood diseases,
for which Hoods Sarsaparilla, as the
best blood purifier, is everywhere
acknowled the greatest remedy.
Therefore, MS Hoods Sarsaparilla
cures all blood diseases, 1t is the best
remedy for that condition of the blood
which causes Nervousness.
1t Is a false idea to think you are
curing your nervousness when you are
taking preparation which only quiets
your neryes 1t is like trying to drown
your sorrows In the flowing bowl.
They are sure to return, ten.fold toorse.
We wish to make most impressive,
then, this truism:
You cannot purify your blood by
DEADENING or oUIETNG your nerves
with opiate, narcotic or nerve COM
pounds. II you take such articles
you are only THRILLING with your
troubles. There ia SURE to BIO O REAo-
TIoS which will leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take the true course,
follow the Decline to tho state OF
health, purify your blood and euro
