What We Inherit

We are not to blame for. We
cannot be held responsible for the
dispositions and tendencies which
we derive from our ancestors,
nor are we responsible for the
germs of disease which may mani
fest themselves in our blood as a
heritage from former generations.
But we are responsible if we al
low these germs to develop into
serious diseases which will i'm
pair our usefulness and destroy
our happiness. We are response
BILE if we transmit to our descend
ants the disease germs which it is
possible for us to eradicate by the
use of Hoods Sarsaparilla, the
one true blood purifier. This
medicine has power to make rich,
red blood and establish perfect
health in place of disease.
