CONSTANTLY TAKING COLD"

So many diseases have their origin in a
common cold that knowledge OF the
best means for the prevention and cure
of cold is most important. 1t is general
" supposed that cold is caused by
undue exposure and that it must OF
necessity have run" Of several days
before any relief can be expected. But it
should be remembered that when cold
is due to exposure the patient can easily
tell when and where it occurred, and it
happens, perhaps in majority OF cases,
that the sufferer from this disorder is
unable to recall any unusual exposure.
In such cases it often seems as though
every movement brings an addition to
the cold.
1t is well known that strong and
healthy person can resist contact with
damp, cool winds and inclement weather
better than one who is weak and debili-
tated. In other words, person in good
physical health is less liable to take cold
than one who is "all run down." and
those who are in this condition will find
themselves constantly taking cold
even when they exercise the greatest care
to avoid the slightest exposure. This is
because they are weak, their blood is
poor and the bodily functions are in
active.
In the treatment of cold the liver and
bowels should be kept in healthy action
by the use of a good cathartic like
Hoods Pills. Then the blood should be
enriched and vitalized, the stomach and
digestive organs stimulated and the
whole system toned and strengthened.
For this purpose there is no better medi-
cine than Hoods Sarsaparila which
may be taken with the utmost confidence
that it will make pure, rich blood and
build up the system. Hoods Sarsapar-
lila has a record of cures unknown to
any other medicine, and its sales are the
largest in the world. Therefore, be sure
to get Hoods.
The best safeguard against cold is
pure, rich, healthy blood and a strong
and vigorous body. lfyou find yourself
constantly taking cold" try Hoods
Pills and bottle of Hoods Sarsaparila,
the one true blood purifier This great
medicine will enrich your blood, give you
an appetite and make you feel strong
and full OF vitality and vigor; and when
you are in such condition and exercise
proper care you need have little fear Of
taking cold.

AFRICAN MISSIONA RES.

| was the only white man during 1876
in Equatorial Africa, but in 1877, when
only short distance from the Atlantic,
the first missionaries landed on the east
coast in response to repeal that had
written in 1875 from Uganda. During
the years from 1879 to 1884 mission
aries followed closely my tracks up the
Congo, and as hundred influences were
in the course of a few years enlisted in
the cause OF Africa, Nyassa Land and the
eastern and southern part of central
Africa began to be studded with Chris
tian missions, and missionaries have
continued to enter Aft lea ever since, until
now there must be about 800 of them,
and the number is still increasing. They
are not all reputed to be first-class men,
but it is wonderful what earnestness and
perseverance will do. We have only to
think OF Uganda, with its 200 churches
and cathe lra and its $4,000 native
Christians, read the latest official reports
faom Nyassa Land, and glance at the
latest map of Africa, to be convinced of
the zeal, devotion and industry of the
missionaries.
