"Hunger Is the Best Sauce"

Yet some people are never hungry. Whatever
they eat has to be "forced down." There is Of
course, something wrong with these people.
By taking Hoods Sarsaparilla a short time
they are given an appetite and then they en-
joy eating and food nourishes them. If you
find your appetite failing, just try bottle of
Hoods. 1t is a true stomach tonic and every
dose does good.
