HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BlTTERS,

The proprietors and manufacturers Of HOS
TETTERS CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
TERS can appeal with perfect confidence to
physicians and citizens generally Of the United
States, because the article has attained repu-
tation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon
this point will speak more powerfully than
volumes Of bare assertion or blazoning pufrery.
The consumption Of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters for the last year amounted to over a half
million bottles, and from It's manifest steady
increase in times past, il is evident that during
the coming year the consumption will reach
near one million bottles. This immense amount
could never have been sold but for the rare
medicinal properties contained in the prepara-
ton, and the sanction Of the most prominent
physicians in those sections Of the country
where the article is best known, who not only
recommend the Bitters to their patients, but
arc ready at all times to give testimonials to it's
efficacy in all cases Of stomnchic arrangements
and the diseases resulting :herefrsm.
This is not temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary efforts in the way Of trum-
peting the qualities of the Bitters, but solid
estimation Of an invaluable medicine, which Is
destined TO be as enduring rs time itself
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved
Godsend to regions where fever and ngue
and various other bilious complaints have
counted their victims by hundreds. To be
able to state confidently TINT the "Bitters"
diseases, is TO the proprietors a source Of un-
alloyed pleasure. 1t removes all morbid matter
from the stomach, purihes the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system,
giving it tina: tone and energy indispensable
for the restoration OF nealth. II operates upon
the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores them
ioacondition essential to the healthy discharge
OF the functions Of nature.
Elderly persons may use the Btters daily as
per directions on the bottle, and they will find
in il stimuant peculiarly adapted to comfort
declining years, as it is pleasant 10 the palate,
incigorating TO the bowels, excellent as a tonic,
and rejuvenating generally. We have the evil
dence Of thousands Of aged men and women
who have experienced the benefit Of using this
preparation while suffering from stomach de-
rangements and general debility; acting under
the advice Of physicians, they have abandoned
all deleterious drugs and fairly tested the
merits Of this article. A few words to the
gentler sex. There are certain periods when
their cares are so harassing that many of them
sink under the trial. The relation OF mother
and child IL so abscrbingly fender, that the
mother. especially il she be young, is apt TO
forget her own health in her extreme anxiety
for her infant. Should the period Of maternity
arrive during the summer season. the wear Of
body and mind is generally aggravated. Here,
then, IL necessity for a stimulant to recupe-
rate the energies Of the system, and enable the
mother TO bear mp under her exhausting trials
and responsibilities. Nursing mothers gene
rally prefer the Biters to all other invigora-
tors that receive the endorsement Of physi-
clans, because IL IL agreeable TO the taste rs
we'll as certain TO give permanent increase
Of bodily strength.

larly referred above. to wit: sufferers from
