Sleep

Induced by the use of coca, opiate or mar
cotic compounds is bad, decidedly bad.
They undermine health and shatter the
constitution and the patient is steadily
growing into a worse condition often
resulting in the terrible slavery and
misery OF the cocaine and opium habit.
sleep induced by the use of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla does not perhaps come as quickly,
but 1t comes more surely and more per-
manently through natures great restor-
ing and rejuvenating channel-purified,
