A Good Appetite
Is essential to good health; but at this season
it is often lost, owing to the poverty or impu

organs, and the weakening effect of the
changing season. Hood's Sarsaparilla is a
wonderful medicine for creating an appetite,
toning the digestion, and giving strength to
the whole system. Now is the time to take
