Spring Medicine
There is no other season when good
medicine is so much needed as in the
Spring.
The blood is impure, weak and
impoverished—a condition indicated
by pimples and other eruptions on the
face and body, by deficient vitality,
loss of appetite, lack of strength, and
want of animation.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and Pills
Make the blood pure, vigorous and
rich, create appetite, give vitality,
strength and animation, and cure
all eruptions. Have the whole family
begin to take them today.
« Hood’s Sarsaparilla has been used in
our family for some time, and always with
good results. Last spring I was all run
down and got a bottle of it, and as usual
received great benefit.” Miss BEULAH
Bo¥cE, Stowe, Vt. Z
Hood’s Sarsaparilla promises to
cure and keeps the promise.
