Brain Blood. Supply Must Be Good

The Importance of having pure
blood is perhaps never more deeply i'm
pressed on us than when we are told
by psychologists that if the brain is
supplied with impure blood, nervous
and bilious headache, confusion of
ideas, loss of memory, impaired intel.
lect, dimness of vision, and dizziness of
hearing, are experienced, and in time
the brain becomes disorganized and
the brittle thread Of life is broken.
The more We learn of the usefulness
of the great blood purifier. Hoods
Sal saparilla, the more grateful we are
for this old and successful family
medicine, which has accomplished so
much in removing scrofula, rheuma-
tism and cGtarrh and other blood dis
cases and correcting rundown condi-
tions of the system If you need a
blood purifier, get Hoods Sarsaparilla.
