You cannot always tell what may be Its
cause. Possibly It may be due to change of
season, climate, or llfej possibly to overwork
or overstudy, to mental suffering, or nervous
ailments. But there is no mistaking Its
effects. You know you feet "almost tired to
death," without strength to do anything;
ambition seems to be all gone, and In Its place

no appetite, do not care about food, and only
eat became It Is the hour tor eating, or from
force of habit.
This must be stopped. Your condition must
be changed at onee, or like a snip drifting with
the Inward tide, you will soon be dashed upon
the rocks of Incurable disease and death.

cure the beadache, and overcome all the pros
trating effects ol That Tired Feeling, by taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla. It Is just what you need,
and to delay taking It Is unwise.
"Since taking Hood's Sarsaparilla that
extreme tired feeling has gone, my appetite
returned, and it has toned me up generally."
Claba W. Phelps, Shirley, Mass.
"My wlie suffered from sick headache and
neuralgia. After taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
she was much relieved." W. R, Babb,
Wilmington, O.
Every Ingredient employed In producing
Hood's Barsaparllla Is strictly pure, and Is the
best of Its kind It Is possible to buy. AU the
roots and herbs are carefully selected, per
sonally examined, and only the best retained.
All are ground In our own drug-mill, so that
from the time of purchase until the medicine
Is prepared, everything is carefully watched
with a view to attaining the best result.
Hood's
Sarsaparilla
"Every spring I take from threo to five
bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, because I
know It purines tbo blood and thoroughly
cleanses the system of all Impurities. That
tired feeling will never visit the system that
has been properly cared for by Hood's Sarsa
parilla," W. H. La whence, Editor Agricul
tural Epltomlst, Indianapolis, Ind.
"It is a pleasure to sell such goods as
Hood's Barsaparllla has proved to be." C.
Brown, Milton, renn.
Makes the

"My daughter had an abscess on her neck
for Ave or six years, being all the tlmo under
care of physicians, without any perceptible
relief. Hood's Barsaparllla was then recom
mended to me for her, and it has entirely
cured her." S. TnoMrsoic, Hazelwood,
Pittsburgh, Penn.
" I highly recommend nood's Sarsaparilla
as the best remedy for Blck headache I havo
been selling this medicine c years and not ono
bottle proved unsatisfactory." F, J. FnicK,
Frick's, Bucks Co., Penn.
Weak Women.
The more sensitive nature of the frmnl8 80t
renders women much men' siin epiilile than
men to those luinirrcH" illi wbli li upHngfrom
lack of harmony In Hie svlem. N.-nmisness,
sick headache and other aliment peculiar tn
women cause great suffering. Hood's Sarsa
parilla Is admirably adapted for suolt eases.
It gU'es great nerve, mental, bodily and diges
tive strength, cures headache, Indigestion,
and creates an appetite.
" For nine years I waa In a state of constant
suffering, scarcely able at any time to walk
Hood's
about the house, and part of the time unable
to bo out of bed. By advice of local physi
cians I went to Philadelphia for treatment,
which gave me relief for a time, but I was
soon worse again and gave up hopo of ever
getting well. Tbo physicians said I had a
flbrold tumor. I began taking Hood's Barsa
parllla and Its good effect was soon apparent.
I began to Improve In health, and continued
taking the medlclno till now I feel perfectly
well, and can walk six or seveu miles a day
without feeling tired. I think Hood's Sarsa

anyone who lias had blood." J&hme E.
Smith, East Broad Top, renn."
" 1 must say Hood's Sarsaparilla Is tlio best

How to Keep Ice,
A piece of ice in a pJtoher, with a pall
over the plcher and a rug over the pall will
keep all nlglit, A piece of Ice In a refrlgalor,
covered with a snug white blanket, will
cheat the greedy Ice man every day, and
snap saucy fingers at the milk that dees
not dare get sour or the beefsteak that
dares not fall. These things are admlreable
In their way, and should he In every bath
room, but the greatest trick of all Is news
papers,. There Is nothing that makes good
a caye for block of Ice as newspapers. With
plenty newspapers above, below and on
every side, the way a piece of Ice will keep
is a joke.
