preparation while suffering from stomach de-
rangcments and general debility; acting under
the advice Of physicians, they have abandoned
all dcleterious drugs and fairly tested the
merits of this article. A few words 10 the
gentler sex. There are certain periods when
their cares nre so harassing that many Of them
sink under the trial. The relation of mother
and child is so absorbingly fender, that the
mother, especially ii 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 recupe-
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 permanent increase
of bodily strength. Q
nAll those persons to whom we have pnrticu-
iarly referred above, ~ wit: sufferers from
fever and ague, caused by malaria, diarrhGa,
dysentery, indigestion, loss of appetite, and
all diseases or arrangements Of the stomach
superannuated invalids persons of sedeniary
occupation, and nursing mothers, will consult
their own physical welfare by giving TO Hos
