AND THE FRIENDS OF SOLDIERS.

We call the attention of al having relations or
friends IN the army TO the fact that HoOFLAND's s
German Bitters' will cure nine tenths OF the dis
| eases induced by exposures and privations Incl
dent to camp life In the lists published almost
| daily IN the newspapers. on the arrival of the
sick, II will be noticed that very large propor-
tion are suffering from debility. Every case of
that kind can be readily cured by Hoofiand' Ger

have no hesitation in stating that if these Bitters
were freely used among our soldiers hundreds of
lives might be saved that otherwise will be lost
| We call particular attention to the following re-
marka5le and well authenticated cure of one the
nations heroes, whose life TO use his own lam
| guage. has been saved by the Bitters -
