that the fourth bank would only iniure

Back of what appears ON the face
OF the case, are all kinds Of charges and

.SCROFULA AND
HUM0RS GIVE WAY

There are many things learned
from experience and observation
that the older generation should
impress upon the younger. Among
them is the fact that scrofula and
other humors, which produce ec-
zema, boils, pimples and other erup-
tions, are most successfully treated
with Hood S Sarsaparilla.
This great medicine is a peculiar
combination of remarkably effective
blood-purifying and health-giving
roots, barks and herbs, which are
gathered especially for it.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has stood the
test of forty years.
Get a bottle today-now-from
your nearest drug store. Always
