The Spring Months

Are most likely to find your blood i'm
pure and lacking in the red corpus
cles which enable it to carry nourish-
ment to the nerves and other organs.
Therefore you feel weak, tired and
listless and are troubled with spring
humors. Relief is given by Hood s
Sarsaparilla, which puriiies, enriches
and vitaliZes the blood.

Give the ChiIdren a Drink

Called Grain-O. 1t is delicious, ap-
petizing, nourishing food drink to
take the place of coffee. Sold by all
grocers and liked by all who have
used it because when properly pre-
pared it tastes like the finest coffee,
but it is free from all its injurious
properties. Grain-O aids digestion
and strengthens the nerves. 1t is not
a stimulant, but health builder, and
children, as well as adults, can drink
it with great benefit. Costs about
as much as coffee. Is and
