HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BlTTERS.

The proprietors and manufacturers Of HOS
rBTTER's CELEBRATED STOMACH BIT
fBRS can appeal with perfect confidence TO
physicians and citizens generally Of the United
States, because the article hes attained repu-
iation heretofore unknown. A few facts upon
this point will sp@ak more powerfully than
volumes of bare assertion or bhzoning pufery.
The consumption of Hostettors Stomach Bit
.ers for the last year amounted to over half
million bottles, and from its manifest steady
increase i'll times past, it is evident that during
the coming year the consumption will reach
near one million bottles. This immense amount
could never have been sold but for the rare
medicinal properties contained in the prepara-
ton, 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 10 their patients, but
are ready at all times to give testimonials TO its
efficacy in all cases of stomachc arrangements
and the diseases resulting thcrefrom.
This is not temporary popularity, obtained
by extraordinary efforts in the way of trum-
peting the qualities of the Btters, bat a solid
estimation of an invaluable medicine, which is
destined TO be as enduring as time itself
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved
n Godsend to regions where fever and ague
and various other bilious complaints have
counted their victims by hundreds. To be
able to state confidently that the "Bitters"
are certain cure for the Dyspepsia and like
diseases, is to the proprietors source of un-
alleged pleasure. 1t removes all morbid matter
from the stomach, purifes the blood, and
imparts renewed vitality to the nervous system,
giving it that tone and energy indispensable
fer the restoration of health. 1t operates upon
the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores them
TO condition essential to the healthy discharge
of the functions of nature. ,
Elderly persons may use the Bittcrs daily rs
per directions on the bottle, and they viii find
in it u stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort
declining years, as it is pleasant to the palate,
invigorating TO the bowels, excellent as n tonic,
and rcjuvenating generally We have the evil
dence of thousands of aged men and women
who have experienced the benefit of using this
preparation while suffering from stomach de-
ran gemcnts and general debility; acting under
the advice of physicians, they have abandoned
nll deletericus drugs and fairly tested the
merits of this article. A few words to the
genler sex. There are certain periods when
their cares are so harassng that many Of them
sink under the trial. The relation of mother
and child is go Accordingly tender, that the
mother, especially if she be young, is apt to
forget her own health in her extreme anxiety
for her infant. Should the period Of maternity
arrive during the summer season, the wear Of
body and mind is generally aggravated Here,
then, is q necessity for q stimulant to rccupe-
rate the energies of the system, and enable the
mother to bear up under her eXhausting trials
and responsibilities. Nursing mothers gene
rally prefer the Bitters to all other inygora-
tors that receive the endorsement of physi-
clans, because it is agreeable to the taste as
well as certain to give permanent increase
of bodily strength
All those persons, to whom we have particu-
arly referred above, to wit: sufferers from
fever and ague, caused by malaria diarrhGa,
dysentery, Indigestion, loss of appetite, and
all diseases or arrangement Of the stomach,
superannuatcd invalids, persons Of sedentary
occupation, and nursing mothers, will consult
their own physical welfare by giving to Hos
letters Celebrated Stomach Biters II trial
