pnn
During the colder season
impure humors accu
mulate in the blood.
The surface of the body being: chilled, the pores are closed
and clogged, and impurities which might pass off in
perspiration are forced back into the blood. Besides
this, winter's hearty food, fats and sweets, contribute
more impurities.
This briefly explains the existence of Spring Humors those
unsightly eruptions, painful boils, annoying pimples and
other affections, which make absolutely necessary the use
Hood's Sarsaparilla at this season.
But with some people, impurities in the blood cause very
different symptoms. The kidneys, liver and bowels are
overmatched in their efforts to relieve the clogged sys
tem. Dizzy headaches, bilious attacks, failure of appetite,
coated tongue, lame back, indigestion or that tired feeling
.are some of the results.
From the same cause may also come scrofula, neuralgia
sciatica or rheumatism.
All these troubles and more may properly be called " Spring
Humors," and just as there is one cause, a cure is found
in just one remedy, and that is I Iood's Sarsaparilla.
Hood's Sarsaparilla purifies the impure blood.
Hood's Sarsaparilla enriches that which is weak and thin.
Hood's Sarsaparilla vitalizes that which lacks vitality.
Hood Sarsaparilla leads in Merit, Sales and Cures.
For your Spring Medicine to prevent or cure Spring
Humors, and build up your health, take
Soiil bj nil druggists. Prico Si; six for $5
