It doesn't mako any difference
whether you believe in the modern
theory and speak of the cause of dis
eases as referable to germs, microbes
or bacilli, or whether you use the old
er and better understood terms Of
"humors" and " blood diseases -
Hoods Sarsaparilla cures them ell
JUST THE SAME. 1t cures those
eruptions, boils and pimples which are
so likely to appear in the Spring;
cures scrofula diseases in their most
tenacious forms; cures salt rheum or
eczema and relieves the itching and
burning; adapts itself equally well
to, and also cures, dyspepsia and all
stomach troubles due to generally
weak condition and thin, anmmic
blood; cures nervous troubles, which,
i'll nine cases out Of ten, exist because
the impure blood cannot supply prop
er nerve food; cures debility and
that tired feeling, which just as surely
indicate that the blood is lacking in
vitality and the elements of health.
This is not merely modern theory but
it is solid, up-to-date fact. Hoods
Sarsaparilla has had such remarkable
success along these lines that it is not
too much to say it is the best Spring
Medicine, blood purifier, stomach and
nerve tonic that money can buy.
