81 have used Hood's Sarsaparilla twenty
years or thereabout. During said time / have
not paid out one cent for doctor bills. / have
for a long time used only four bottles per year,
two in spring and two in fall. My bowels are
regular, l sleep sound, feel like always being
young, entirely free from any malaria, ETC."
Chas. +. Roberts, p. o. Box 47S, Peoria, Ills. 4
GTHood's Sarsaparilla effects its wonderful
cures, not simply because it contains sarsaparilla,
but because it combines the utmost remedial
values of more than 20 different ingredients, each
greatly strengthened and enriched by this pecu-
liar combination. These ingredients are the very
remedies that successful physicians prescribe for
the same diseases and ailments. There is no real
substitute for Hoods Sarsaparilla. If urged to
buy any preparation said to be ''just as good,''
you may be sure it is inferior, costs less to make,
and yields the dealer a larger profit.
Begin taking Hoods Sarsaparilla today, in
usual liquid or tablets known as Sarsataba.

The Blood is the Power
That Defends the Body
This is the greatest and most important discovery
of modern medical science.
1t ranks with the discovery of the circulation of
the blood, which was made centuries ago.

The blood protects the organs and tissues from
disease, but it does so only when it is healthy
itself.
Healthy blood is pure blood, and at no season
is it more necessary than

GIRL TIES BABY TO cow
little Sister Is Killed and Mother
Driven Insane as Result of
Her Franks.

Paris.-Little Theresa Marceau,
whose age is seven, and who lives at
LIE Mans, evidently is the type of ju-
venile monster that French novelists
are fond of introducing into their
works AS the result of a prank of
hers, her younger sister is dead and
her mother is insane.
Theresas grandparents, who are
farmers, sent her to keep her eye on
some cows which were in a field close
by the farmhouse OF she set, ac-
companied by the younger child, who
was only three years old, From time
TO time. one of the parents looked over
the hedge to see that everything was
going on well, but after awhile they
went to work in another field.
Taking advantage of their absence,
Theresa proceeded to tie her small
sister to the tail of a COW and then
beat the animal to make 1t run.
When the parents, hearing terrible
screams. rushed up and stopped the
COW, the child was dead with a frac-
ured skull The mothers grief and
despair were so great that she has
los. her reason, and she is to be
placed under restraint.
