Attention Soldiers, q n d
Friends OF Soldiers.

We call the attention of all having relations OF
friends in the army to the fact that "HooAand's
German Btters' will cure nine -tents of the dis
| eases incident to camp life. In the list published
almost daily III the newspapers, the arrival OF
the sick il will be noticed that very large por-
ton are suffering from debility. Every case OF
that kind can be readily cured by HooHand's Bit
ters. Diseases resulting disorders of the diges-
tive organs are speedily removed. We have no
he STATION in stating that ii these Biters were
| freely used among our soders hundreds Of lives
might be saved that otherwise will be lost
We call particular attention to the following
remarkable and we'll authenticated cure of one Of
the nations heroes his life, TO use his own Ian
guage, ''has been saved by the Bitters.'
