life, they are little if any stronger thar
they were. The tan on their faces i:
darker and makes them look healthier
but it is only mask. They are still
nervous, easily tired, upset by trifies
and they do not eat nor sleep well
What they need is what tones the nerves
perfects digestion, creates appetite, and
makes sleep refreshing, and that is Hoods
Sarsaparlla. Pupils and teachers
generally will find the chief purpose Of
the vacation best subserved by this
