Kinley, 011 tlio other hand, has positively
refused to discuss the lluaiicial question since

SPRING MEDICINE
Now Is tlio Time to Turlfy Your lllood
Spring is emphatically tho season when a
good blood purifying medicine should be
taken.
Why?
First, tho need of such a medlcluo is moro
imperative nt this season than at any other.
During tho winter tho blood has become
loaded wlh impurities and robbed of its
vitality, llioso impurities mu-t no oxpciieu
and new vitality given, if good health is to
bo expected through tho coming season
Second, the system is moro btiseptible to
tho benefit to bo derived from a good medi
elno nt this tuno than at any other. It Is n
timo when the body is iu n debilitated con
ditiou because of impure and impoverished
blood, and every function will quickly
respond to tho toning up clfects uf n good
blood purifier llko Hood's SarMiparilla
These statements are plain nud simple
facts that caa lie verified by experience, aud
they can readily bo understood.
Tee greatest blood purifier ever produced
is Hood's Sarsaparllla.
This medicine has won Its way to tho
front by its actual meiit. It has accom
plished moro genuine nud permanent cures
than nny other preparation that has ever
been produced by medical science. The
evident 0 of thofo cures is abiolutely uulm
poachahlo und unapproachable. I hero aro
thousands of pcoplo enjoying perfect Jionitn
who would still be suffering had it not been
for Hood's Sarsaparllla. Other remedies
had been tried, but only Hood's' Sarbaparllla
cured
Itdoos all that is claimed for it. It effects
the most rcmarkablo cures of Scrofula, Salt
Ithcuui, Dyspepsia, nlieimiatlsm, and othe
diseases, and overcomes that tired feeling.
When you buy your Spring Medicino, get
that which has proved itself the best. Insist
ujsjii Hood's Sarsaparllla, because it is th
one true blood purifier.
