WHAT SCROFULA Is,

Scrofula is disease as old as antiqui-
ty. It has been handed down for gene
rations and in the same to-day as in early
times. It is emphatically a disease of
the blood, and the only way TO cure it Ia
by purifying the blood. That is just
what Hoods sarsaparilla does in every
case where it is given faithful trial.
IL eradicates all impurities from the
blood, and cures the sores, boils, pimples
and all forms OF skin disease due to scro-
fula taints in the blood. Hoods sarsa-
parilla has won the grateful praise of
vast numbers of people by its grand and
complete cures. Don't allow serefula to
develop in your blood. Cure it at once
by taking Hoods sarsaparilla.
