THE KVGENE WEEKLY OVARI). THl'RHDAV. DECEMBER 24, IW* Little Soldiers In your Dtood are the millions of corpuscles that defend you against disease. To make and keep these little soldiers healthy and strong, is simply to make and keep the blood of the right quality and quantity. This is just what Hood’s Sarsaparilla does — it helps the little soldiers in your blood to fight disease for you. It cures scrofula, eczema, eruptions, catarrh, rheumatism, anemia, nervous* whs , dyspepsia, general debility, and builds up the whole system. r. to W tp. 17. in 21 V». > Ilvrt J Denham; tp. 20. a. r. 3 w.
