The Christmas Dinner

In spite OF the fact that the word dys-
be6sta means literally bad COOK. it will
not be fair for many to lay the blame on
the cook if they begin the Christmas
Dinner with little appetite and end it
with distress of nausea. 1t may not be
fair for any to do that--let us hope so for
the sake of the cook The disease dys-
indicates bad stomach. that is a
weak stomach. rather than a bad cook,
and for a weak stomach there is nothing
else equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. Il
gives the stomach vigor and tone. cures
dyspepsia, creates appetite. and makes
eating the pleasure it should be.
