`di AM SO TIRED."
Is a common exclamation at this season
There is a certain bracing effect in
cold an which is lost when the weath
or grows warmer; and when Nature's
SS renewink her youth, her admirers
feel dull, sluggish aud tired. 'This ..on
dition is owing mainly to the irepare
coneition of the blood, and its atilure
to supply healthy tissue to the various
organs of the body. It is remarkable
hew susceptible the system is to the
help to be derived from a good meth
eine at this season. Possessing just
those purifying, building up qualities
which the body craves, Hood's Sarsapa
re la soon ovetcomes that tired feeling,
restores the appetite, purifies the blood
and, in short, imparts vigorous health.
Its tlaonsands offriends • as with one
