A novel attraction has been secured

Exlremetired feeling nlHiets nearly every'
body ut i liia season. The hustlers cease to
push, the tireless grow weary, the ener
getic become enervated. You know just
what we mean. Some men and women
endeavor temporarily to overcome that
Feclintf by great force of will. But this
is unsafe, bs it pulls powerfully upon the
nervous system, which will not long stand
audi strain. Too many people "work on
their nerves," and the result is seen in un
fortunate wrecks marked "nervous pros
tration," in every direction. Thai tired
ing is a positive proof of thin, weak, im
pure blood; for, if the blood is rich, red,
vitalized and vigorous, it imparts life ami
energy to every nerve, organ and tissue
of the body. The necessity of taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla for that tired feeling
is, therefore, apparent to every one, and
the good it will do you is equally beyond
question, llcmember that
