Women Need More
and Better Blood

To be strong, well, equal to demands
of home, society, Office or shop.
1t is fact proven by thousands of
grateful letters that Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is remarkably beneficial to
young or older women.
The most common ailments of
women drain and weaken the system
and sometimes result in anemia, ner-
vous weakness, general breakdown.
Hoods Sarsaparilla gives the blood
more vitality and better color, makes
stronger nerves, and contributes to
the length and enjoyment of life
