Bihers appeal with perfect confidence to ply
sicians and citizens generally of the United States
because the article has attained reputation here
tofore unknown. few facts upon this point will
speak more powerfully than volumes of bare asser
ton or blazoning puffery. The consumption of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters for the last year a
mounted to over half million bottles, and from
its manifest steady increase in times past, it is
ident that during the coming year the consump-
ton will reach near one million bottles. This i'm
mense amount could never have been sold but for
the rare medicinal properties contained in the pre-
paration 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 ready at all
times give testimonials to its efficacy in all ca
of stomachic arrangements and the diseases re-
suting therefrom. This is not temporary popu-
Iarity obtained by extraordinary efforts in the way
of trumpeting the qualities of the Bitters, but a
solid estimation of an invaluable medicine. which
is destined to be as enduring as time itself

fairly tested the merits of this article few
words to the genter sex. There certain Pc
riods when their cares are so harrassng 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 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.

ly referred above, to wit sufferers from fever and
ague, caused by alaria, diarrhoea, dysentery in

rangements of the stomach, superanuated inval-
Ids, persons of sedentary occupation, and nursing
mothers will consult their own physical welfare
