of them sink under the trial. The relation of mo-

mother, especially if she be young is apt to for
get her own health in the extreme anxiety for her
| infant. Should the period for maternity arrive
| during the summer season. the wear of body and
| mind is generally aggravated. Here, then, is a
necessity for a stimulant to recuperate the ener-
gies of the system, and enable the mother to bear
up under her eXhausting trials and responsible
ties. Nursing mothers generally prefer the Bit
ters to all other invigorators that receive the en-
dorsement of physicians, because it is agreeable
to the taste as well as certain to give permanent
| increase of bodily strength.
