We heard q man say the other morn
ing that the abbreviation for February
-Feb.-means Freeze every body. and
that man looked frozen in his ulster. II
was apparent that he needed the kind
OF warmth that stays, the warmth that
reaches from head to foot, all over the
body. We could have told him from per-
sonal knowledge that Hoods Sarsapar-
lila gives permanent warmth, it invi-
gorates the blood and speeds along
through artery and vein. and really fits
men and women. boys and girls to en-
low cold weather and resist the attacks
of disease. It gives the right kind Of
warmth, stimulates and strengthens at
the same time, and all Its benefits are
lasting. There may be suggestion in
this for you.
