Thousands Of women have found health md

germs increases and yitalizes the little red
puscles that give the rich red tint to the blood
creates good appetite and tones the stomach
so that food is digcsted and assinilatel and con-
verified into nourishment for the various organs,
and imparts strength to the whole body. And
just the weakest organ most readily feels the
attacks Of disease, so The great building up and
restoring power OF Hoods Sarsaparilla goes d
rectly to the weakest part and promptly repairs
the injury that has been inflicted by such at
tacks. The change which to the tired and
worn woman who takes Hoods Sarsaparia is
indeed marvellous Vast numbers Of testimonials
have told the stcry and again-how
women were weak and tired pale and sickly and
hardly able to drag themselves around: how Hood s
Sarsaparlla brought appetite, food began to taste
good, strength returned. life and vigor were
felt and the pure rich blood which Hoods Sarsa-
parilla made gave back to the faded cheeks the
of youth and to the wasted frame the
strength and beauty Of health
