Get the Most
Out of Your Food

You don't and can't if your stomach
is weak. A weak stomach does not di-
gest all that is ordinarily taken into it.
1t gets tired easily, and what it fails to
digest is wasted.
Among the signs of weak stomach
are uneasiness after eating, fits of ner-
vous headache, and disagreeable belch-
ing.
II have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at
different times for stomach troubles, and a
run down condition of the system, and have
been greatly benefited by its use. I would
not be without it in my family. I am trou-
bled especially in summer with weak stom-
ach and nausea and find Hoods Sarsaparilla
