EVERYBODY NEEDS
PURE, RICH BLOOD
Pure blood epables the stomach,
liver and other digestive organs to do
their work properly. Withont it they
i
are sluggish, there s loss of appetite,
sometimes faintness, a deranged state
of the intestines, and, irogeneral, all
the symptoms of dyspepsia.
Pure blood is required by every
organ of the body for the proper per-
formance of its functions.
Hood's Sarsaparilla makes pure
blood, and this is why it is so suc-
ceed& in the treatment of so many
diseases and ailments. Its acts di-
rectly on the 'blood, riddieg it of
scrofulous and other humors. It is
a peculiar combination of blood -puri-
