Bitters can appeal with perfect confidence to ply
scians and citizens generally of the United States
because the article has attained reputation here
tofore unknown. A few facts upon this point will
speak more powerfully than volumes of bare asser-
ton blazoning puffery. The consumption of
Hostetters 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 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 Btters to their patients, but are ready at all
times to give testimonials to its efficacy in all
ses of stomachic arrangements and the diseases
suting therefrom. This is not a temporary popu-
larity, obtained by extraordinary efforts in the way
of trumpeting the qualities of the Bitters, but
solid estimation of an invaluable medicine. which
is destined to be as enduring time itself
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved God
send to regions where fever and ague and various
other bilious complaints have counted their vic
Tins by hundreds. To be able to state confident
ly that the Bitters' certain cure for the Dys
pepsia and like diseases, is to the proprietOrs
source of unalloyed pleasure. 1t tremoyes all NOR

Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily as per
directions the bottle, and they will find it
stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort declining
years. it is pleasant to the palate, invigoratng
to the bowels, excellent a tonic, and reJuYcna-
ting generally. We have evidence of thousands
of aged men and women who have experienced
the benefit of using this preparation while suffer
ing from stomach arrangements and general de-
bility; acting under the advice of physicians,
they have abandoned all deleteriOus drugs and
fairly tested the merits of this article. A few
words to the gentler sex. There 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 absorbingiy 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 responstbili-
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 certain to give permanent
increase of bodily strength.
All those persons, to whom we have particular,
ly referred above to wit sufferers from fever and
ague, caused by alaria, diarrhea, dysentery, in
loss of appetite, and all diseases or de-
rangements of the stomach, superanuated inYal-
Ids, persons OF Sedentary Occupation- ana nursing

by giving to Hostetter' 5 Celebrated Stomach Bit
