The `Best is
the Cheapest."
Experience teaches that
good clothes wear longest,
gooa food gives best nutrition,
and a good medicine that
cures disease is naturally the
best and cheapest. Hood's
Sarsaparilla is the best medi
cine money can buy, because
it cures when all others fall.
Poor Health -"Hadpoor health for
years, pains n shoulders, back and hips,
wAth ccastant headache, nervosness and
no appetite. Used Hood'a Sasaparla,
gained strength and can wor hard all
day: eat heartly and sleep well. I took
it because it helped my husband to whom
it gave strength." s, Ef. G . ffels,
