RI Il Il E. S.-The proprietors and

Manufacturers of Hostetter's Celebrated Stomach
Bitters appeal with perfect confidence to ply
sicians and citizens generally of the United States
because the article has attained reputation here

speak more powerfully than vofmes of bare
ton blazoning puffery. The consumption of

mounted to half-milion bottles, and from

ident that during the coming year the cOnsump-

paration and the sanction of the most prom inent
physicians in those sections of the country where
the article is best known. who not only End

times to give testimonials to its efficacy in all ca
of stom achic arrangements and the diseases

the benefit of using this preparation while suffer
ing from stomach arrangements and general de-
biIity; acting under the advice of physicians

fairly tested the merits of this article. A few
words to the gentler sex. There are certain Pc
riods when their are so harrassing that many
of them sink under the trial. The relation of mo-
ther and child is so absorbingly tender, that the
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
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

ly referred above, to wit sufferers from fever and
ague, caused by malaria, diarrhoea dysentery, in
digestion, loss of appetite and all diseases or de-
rangements OF the stomach, superanuated inval-
ids persons of sedentary occupation, and nursing
mothers, will consult their own physical welfare
by giving to Hostetter's Celebrated Stomach Bit
ters trial.
