Makes. th: g Weak Strong

The marked benefit which people in run down or weakened state of health derive from Hood’s Sarsaparllla, conclusively proves the claim that this medicine “ makes the weak strong.” It does not act like a stimulant, lmparflng fictitious strength from whlclitlicre must follow it reaction of greater weakness than before, but in me most natural way Hood’s Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel- ing, creates an appetite, purifies the blood, and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve, mental and digestive strength.

Fagged out

“Last spring I was completely tagged out. My strength left me and Ifelt sick and ms- erable all the time so that I could hardly attend to my Dl'.SlI1t$So. I took one bottle of Hood’s Sarsaparllla, and it cured me. There is nothing like it.” B. C. Bnoomi, Editor
