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. J. D. HILL. A WORD OF WARNING.
