FoUR-FoLD BENEFIT
From Two Grand Medicines-Hood's
SarsaparilIa, Peptiron Pills.

You know that physicians often give
two prescriptions, perhaps more, Ior
medicines to be taken together, or alter
nately or at different times.
one reason NAV be that the medicines
are .incompatible"-do not agree when
closely mixed in taking-or that desireu
results cannot be secured by one medl-
cine alone.
cine treatment that we know of is IN
Hoods Sarsaparilla and Peptiron PMS.
The former expels impurities from the
blood, creates an appetite and promotes
digestion and natural action of the kid
noys and liver. while Peptiron Pills give
the powerful tonic-they literally put
iron into your blood'-that just balances
the requirement of perfect health. :.
Patients taking both report the benefit

nent Sold by all druggists
