AN IMPORTANT OFFICE.
To properly fill its office and functions
it is important that the blood be pure
When it is in such a condition, the
body is almost certain to be healthy.
A complaint at this time is catarrh in
some of its various forms. A slight
cold develops the disease in the bead.
Droppings of corruption passing inlo
the lungs bring on consumption. The
only wav to cure this diseas-.: is to
purify the blood. The most obstinate
cases of catarrh yield to the medicin
al powers of Aood’s S.mia*p:iritia ns if
by magic, simply because it reachej
the scat cf tlie disease, and by purify
ing and vitalizing the blood, removes
the cause. Not only docs Hoods Sar
saparilla do this but it gives renewed
vigor to the whole system, making it
possible for good health to reign su
preme.
All persons indebted to me either
hv note or account must come up
and settle at once, otherwise you will
find your accounts in tho hands of
officers for collection.
