The Renewal a Strain.

Vacation is over Again the school
bell rings at morning and at noon,
again with tens of thousands the hard
est kind of work has bsgun, the renewal
of which is a mental and physical strain
to all except the most rugged. The lit
tie girl that few days ago had roses
in her cheeks, and the little boy whose
lips were then so red you would have in
sisted that they had been kissed by
strawberries, have already lost some
thing of the appearance of health. Now
is time when many children should be
given tonic. which may avert much
serious trouble, and we know of no
other so highly to be recommended as
Hoods Sarsaparilla, which strengthens
the nerves, perfects digestion and as
Similation, and aids mental development
by building up the whole system.
