Is Fully Met by Hoods SarsapariIIa
and Peptiron Pills.
Because of what it contains, of the
way it is made and of the record 1t
has achieved. Hoods Sarsaparilla is
warmly recommended to you for
rheumatism, catarrh, scrofula, eczema
and other troubles arising from i'm
pure blood or low state of the system.
In cases that are radically anemic
and nervous-marked by paleness,
thin flesh, sleeplessness, nerve-ex-
haustion, the power Of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is greatly increased by Pept-
iron Pills, the new pepsin, nux and
iron tonic. These two medicines make
the strongest combination course of
treatment for the blood and nerves of
which we have any knowledge.
Fine results follow this course of
treatment-take Hoods Sarsaparilla
regularly before meals, Peptiron Pills
after meals.
Thousands of families are taking

and admiration last night when the

brought that silent. determined squad
preceded by the banner identifying
them as "Ottumwa's minute men?
Their ranks were hard to keep
straight; they lacked uniforms; among
them were tall and short men, some
fat and some thin. But each face spoke
grim determination.
They were the volunteers whose
names have but recently been added

And those who watched them expert
enced a feeling of pride because their
fellow citizens were out there, ready
to 70 to war in a righteous, patriotic
cause.
The awkward squad is the link be

lay citizen whose proper place is in
the ranks-fghting. farming or manu-
notwithstanding in whatever capac-
ity duty dictates.
