This does not necessarily mean the contraction of disease provided the system is in a vigorous condition, with the blood pure and all the organs in Tealthy action. When in such a con dition contagion is readily resisted and the disease germs can find no room for lodgment. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the best medicine to build up the system because it makes pure, rich blood, and pure blood is the basis of good health In cold weather it is especially neees- sarv to keep up the health tone because the body is subject to greater exposure and more liable to disease. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the safeguard of health. A friend in need is a friend indeed When badly wounded you need a friend. Dr. Ticlienor's Antiseptic will prove a friend indeed.
