Keep the Ralance, UP

1t has been truthfully said that any
disturbance of the even balance OF
health causes serious trouble. Nobody
can be too careful to keep this balance
up, When people begin TO lose appel
tie or to get tired easily, the least i'm
prudence brings on sickness, weakness
or debility. The system needs tonic
Graves it and should not be denied it;
and the best tonic of which we have any
knowledge is Hoods Sarsaparilla.
What this medicine has done in keep
ing healthy people healthy, in keeping
up TIE even balance Of health, gives it
the same distinction as a preventive
that it enjoys as cure Its early use
has illustrated the wisdom of the old
saying that stitch in time saves nine.
Take Hoods for appetite, strength and
endurance.
