Weak, Tired, Nervous
"I was feeling as miserable as any one
could feel, tired all the time, many times
unable to go out on the street even after
I had started. If I went up one flight of
stairs I felt as though I should fall. I
had palpitation of the heart and suffered
? ready with catarrh of the "head and
hroat. I finally .decided to try Hood's
Banwparllla, and soon felt better. I used
the third bottle and I then felt like
different person. I hope others in ill
health will do as I did. If you take
Hood's Sarsaparilla and use it faithfully
I am sure you will be benefited. I have
also found Hood's Pills to be of great
benefit and I highly recommend them."

much aggravated by catarrh of the
head and throat. I also suffered with
nervous prostration, and felt more tired
on arising when retiring. I had severe
pains over the eyes and all through
my head. No one knows how I Buffered.
After having tried any number of phy
sicians and medicines, but to no avail, I
had given up all hopes of recovery,
when I was Induced to go see Dr.
Smith. I did so, and from the first be
gan to Improve rapidly. This was
three weeks ago, and today I am a well
woman. I cannot express my gratitude
but I heartily recommend any one suf
fering as I did to Dr. Smith. He will
cure you." Dr. Smith will give free Il

o'clock. He will also deliver a free
