That
An exceedingly common and dan
gerously significant condition.
A warning which must bo heeded,
or, as with tho express train
which fails to regard tho dan
ger signal, disaster must follow.
A euro indication of thin, weak, im
poverished blood. A certain ad
monition that tho blood is not
properly feeding tho nerves, tis
sues and organs of tho body.
An imperative) demand for tho tonic,
vitalizing effect of Hood's Sarsa
parilla upon tho blood.
Weak, nervous, tired men and wom
en aro found everywhere. Men
strivo too hard to " keep -'their
ends up," women too anxiously
work "on their nerves" to meet
tho demands of home and society,
all liavo too little sleep, and the
excessive drain on strength and
nervous energy wilL soon com
pletely ruin health.
Tho strength must bo built up by puro
blood, and tho nerves must also
find in puro blood tho proper nerve
food. For this purposo nothing
equals Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Tho thousands of wonderful cures it
has accomplished, tho liko of
which no other medicino and no
combination of medicines can
show, prove its curative merit;
provo that it lias never been
equalled as a blood medicine;
provo that Hood's Sarsaparilla is
indeed tho ideal spring medicine,
the best nerve and stomach tonic,
tho ono truo blood puriiler.

Tired
Feeling
"I was feeling tired all tho tlmo, as tired
In the morning as I was at night. I began
taking Hood's Sarsaparilla and it has
helped mo so that I have no such feelings
now. My little girl suffered with pain in
her stomach, but Hood's Sarsaparilla has
cured hor." James T. Mann, Hubbards
ton, Mass. t
Weakness and Loss of Appotlto.
"Last spring my llttlo girl had no appot
tlte and was weak. I gave her one-half
bottlo ol Hood's Sarsaparilla, which oured
her. Wo will now take no other medicine
but Hood's Sarsaparilla, and recommend
it to everyone for weakness and loss of
appetite." Wm. F. Hanes, Brysonia, Pa.
' All Tlrott Out.
"My husband was alt tired out and run
down in health. He felt the need of some
thing to build him up, and he began tak
ing Hood's Sarsaparilla and Hood's Fills
and tho result was very satisfactory. Wo
regard Hood's Sarsaparilla and Hood's
Fills as ezcollent medicines." MRS. H.X.
Mowky, Towanda, Pa.
Tlrod and Worn Out Fooling.
"I have been taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
and cannot say too much in its favor. It

I havo over -tried. I have advised my
friends to use It for a tired and worn
out feeling, as I know that it gives relief."
