root it up somewhere. The amount is
small with each of you, but If VIC could
see it all in pile on our table we should
feel as though we could root out of our

THE TRUTH ABOUT
DYS p 6 p STA.

Whoever says that dyspepsia is incurhble tells
a-that is to say, makes an egregious mistake
More than ten thousand aggravated cases have
been cured by Hostetter's Stomach Bitiers
while the number that have been prevented
from coming to a head by the same means is in
calculable. In this season of the year, when the
APPETITE is sometimes too vigorous for the comfort
and safety of the stomach, indigestion is mos
prevalent and most distressing. Is the appetite
to be baked to accommodate the digestive or
gans? Not so for then the frame would lack
its due proportion of nutriment. The thing &c
be done is to STRENGTHEN TIE STOMACH, tone
the liver, and put the bowels in perfect order
Nothing will do this so eiiectually, so rapidly
so quietly, 80 pleasantly, as Hostetter's Bit.
tiers. This potent preparation trims and baan
ces the system, and clothes it, as it were, with
defensive armor. Chronic dyspepsia liver com.
plant, and fever and asue are never known to
attack those who are wise enough to invoke the
aid of this great preventive.
