HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BIT TIERS.

STOMACH BITTERS,
The proprietors and manufacturers of HOS
LETTERS CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
TIERS 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 puffery.
The consumption of Hostetter's Stomach Dit
tiers for the last year amounted to over half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase in times past, it 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 prepare
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
are ready at all times to give testimonials to its
efficacy in all cases of stomachic arrangements
and the diseases resulting theretrom.
This is not o 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 as time ITSELF
Hostetters Stomach Bitters have proved
q Godsend to regions where fever and ague
and various other bilious complaints have
counted their victims by hundreds. To be
able to state confidently that the "Bitters"
are a certain cure for the Dyspepsia and like
diseases, is to the proprietors source of un-
alleged pleasure. 1t removes all morbid matter
from the stomach purifes the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system,
giving it that tone and energy indispensable
for the restoration of health. 1t operates upon
the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores them
to acondition essential to the healthy discharge
of the functions of nature.
Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily as
per directions on the bottle, and they will find
in it a stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort
declining years, as it is pleasant to the palate,
inyigorating 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 is so absorbingly tender, that the
mother, especially if 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, is a necessity for stimulant to recupo-
rate the energies of the system, and enable the
mother to bear up under her exhausting trials
and responsibilities. Nursing mothers gene
rally prefer the Bitters to all other invigora-
tors that receive the endorsement of physi=
clans, because it is agreeable to the taste as
well as certain to give a permanent increase
of bodily strength.
All those persons, to whom we have particu~
larly referred above, to wit: sufferers from
fever and ague, caused by malaria, diarrhea,
dysentery, indigestion, loss of appetite, and
all diseases or arrangements of the stomach,
superannuated invalids, persons of sedentary
occupation, and nursing mothers, will consult
their own physical welfare by giving to Hos
letters Celebrated Stomach Bitters trial.

using any of the many limitations or counter

I IMPROVED INSTRUMENT FOR SUR
L VEYING AND CALCULATING AREAS, by ia
d. LILLEY, Staunton, Va.
This is instrument is semcircular plate, with
needle box attached to the diameter and the circul
.dge graduated in degrees; and there being NOV
,le limb alidade attached to the centre of the plat
With verniers at both ends. tie bearing of line ca
'e read for ery number of degrees or minutes
The plate is so divided as to form, with the scale
he alldade traverse table of lines instead of nuI
,ers, which gives at once the latitude and departu
If any course and distance run.
The table answers the same purpose for ascertal
ng heights and distances, as the required distance
ead from the plate without the trouble of referriI
10 the lOgarlthmic tables.
1t gives the horizontal measurement of the lines
survey and where there is local attraction the lin
be traced Independent of the needle there beil
wo pair of sights, enabling the surveyor to form
the angle required by the bearings of the cou
ses.
The variation of an old line is easily calculated
t, and for such work as leveling for mill-races
draining land it answers every purpose of the leve
There is an attachment for solving Oblique tria
yles which gives the base and perpendicular of Il
triangle, from which the can be ascertalned We
eadilv and it also gives the bearing and distance
he closing line in division of land.
The instrument can be used with either the sigh
Or telescope.
The following is one of the many certificates Whit
nave been obtained for this instrument
