Ill BI 7 T Z X S.-The proprietors and

Manufacturers of Hostetter's Celebratea Stomach
Bitters appeal with perfect confidence to ply
sicans and citizens generally of the United States

tofore unknown A few facts upon this point will

ton blazoning pufery. The consumption of

mounted to over a half f-millon bottles, and from
its manifest steady increase in times past 1T Is ev-

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 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
sultiug therefrom This is not 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 enduring as time itself

words to the gentler sex There are certain pc
riods when their cares so harrassing that many
| of them sink under the trial. The relation of mo-
| ther and child is absorbngly 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 stimulant to reeuperate 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
dorsement of physicians, because it is agreeable
to the taste well as 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 malaria, diarrhoea dysentery, in
Digestion loss of appetite, and all diseases de-
| rangements of the stomach, superanuated inval-
ids, persons of sedentary occupation, and nursing
mothers, will consult their own physical welfare
