KEEP THE BALANCE UP
It has been truthfully said that any '
disturbance of the even balance of
health causes serious trouble. No
body ran be too careful to keep this '
balance up When people begin to
lose appetite, or to gel tired easily,
the least Imprudence brings on sick- '
ness, weakness, or debility. The sys
tem needs a tonic, craves it, and
should not be denied it. and the best
tonic of which we have any knowl
edge is Hoods Sarsaparilla. What
this medicine has done in keeping
healthy people healthy, in keeping up
ihe even balance of health, gives it
the same distinction as a preventive
that >t enjoys as a cure Its early
use lias illustrated the wisdom of the
old saying that a stitch in time saves
nine Take Hood’s for appetite,
strength and endurance
