HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS,

The proprietors and manufacturers of HOS
TETTER'S 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 Hostcttcr's Stomach Bit
ters for the last year amounted to over half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase in times past, 1t 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 Bittcrs TO their patients, but
are ready at all times to give testimonials 10 it's
efficacy in all cases of stomachic arrangements
and the diseases resulting thercfrem.
This is uota temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary efforts in the way Of trum-
pcting the qualities of the Bitters but solid
estimation of an invaluable medicine, which il
destined 10 be as enduring as time itself
llostctter's Stomach Bitters have proved
Godsend to regions where fever and ague
and various other bilious complaints hayo
counted their victims by hundreds. To be
aOle TO state confidently that the "Bitters"
are certain cure for the Dyspepsia and like
diseases, is TO the proprietors n source Of un-
aloycd pleasure. 1t removes all morbid matter
from the stomach, purifes the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system,
giving 1t that tone and energy indispensable
for the restoration Of health IL operates upon
the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores them
10 a condition essential TO the healthy discharge
OF the functions of nature.
Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily as
per directions Oh the bottle, and they will find
i'll it stimulant peculiarly adapted 10 comfort
declining years, as it is pleasant to the palate,
invgorating 10 the bowels, excellent rs a tonic
@@a rcjuvcnating generally We have the evil
dcnce 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 deietcrous drugs and fairly tested the
merits of this article. 4 few words 10 the
gcntler sex. There are certain periods when
their cares arc 30 harassing that many of them
sink under the trial. The relation of mother
and child IL 80 absorlingly tender, that the
mother. especially il shc be young, is mt TO
forget her own health in her extreme anxiety
for her infant. Should the period of mat ernity
arrive during the summer season, the wear OF
body and mind is generally aggravated. Here,
then, is n necessity for n stimuant TO rccupe-
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 Bittcrs TO all other invigora-
tors that receive the endorsement OF physi-
clans, because it is agreeable TO the taste as
well rs certain to give n permanent increase
of bodily strength.
All those persons, to whom we have particu-
larly referred above, 10 wit: sufferers from
fever and ngue, caused hy malaria, diarrhna
dyscntcry, indigestion, loss of appetite and
all diseases or arrangements of the stomach,
surerannuated invnlids, persons of scdcntary
occupation, and nursing mothers, will consult
their own physical welfare by giving TO Hos
letters Celebrated Stomach Bitters trial.
