Distributors Loss of Appetit; Most Successfully Treated by Taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla Loss of appetite is accompanied by loss of vitality, which is serious. It is common in the spring because at this time the blood is impure and impoverished and fails to give the digestive organs what is absolutely necessary for the proper perform- ance of their functions. Hood's Sarsaparilla, the old reliable all-the-year-round medicine, is_espe- cially useful in the spring. Get it from your druggist today. By purify- ing and enriching the blood and giving vitality, vigor and tone, it is wonder- fully successful in the treatement of loss of appetite and the other ailments prevalent at this time. It is not sim- ply a spring medicine—it is much more than that—but it is the best spring medicine. Hood's Sarsaparilla makes the rich red blood the digestive organs need.
