PHYSICAL VIGOR.


question, therefore, is, How shall this repeldllI
power be increased where it is but teeOie, anu
acquired where it scarcely exists at all lHere
was a time when this question could noI NC
satisfactorily answered. But the problem Is
now solved. 1t has been proved by the expert
ence of more than fourteen years that HOS
letters Stomach Bitters so thoroughly reen-
force both the constitution and the secre-
tive and the nervous systems as to rem
der the body comparatively invulnerable
to the unwholesome influences which PROSTATE
so many thousands on beds of sickness IN yarl-
Gus parts of the world at all seasons Of the year.
As an invigOrating, regulating, and restorative
preparation, suited to all climates and TO all CON
tingencies, it stands alone among modern medl-
cines. 1t is the only tonic of which the stlmu-
lating principle is perfectly pure. Its basis Is
the essential principle of sound Rye, adml!ted
by analytical chemists and medical pIactltl0h-
ers to be the most genial and harmless OF SUM
uli; and this fluid is purged OF all the cruultles
which belong to it as 1t comes from the manu-
facturer, before being used in the comp0sltlon
of the BitteIs The Alternative, corrective, ana
restorative properties of the preparation are
derived exclusively from roots and plants, the
virtues of which are acknowledge by pharIna-
ceutists and physicians, and which are OFTEN
prescribed separately by the profession. Never,
however, were these invaluable vegetable
agents combined for preventive ana remedlal
purposes until the hygiene compound, H0steI-
ter's Stomach Bitters, was given to the w ora:
The stOmachc and anti-biliOus operation OF
the great restorative has long since rendered
it a standard medicine for complaints OF the
digestive organs and the liver III all parts OF
the Western Hemisphere; but 1t Is no less de-
servedly celebrated as preventive OF cpl
denies, and Of the various disorders generated
by malaria and impure water.
N-DYsPEPsA.-Progress has its
penalties. As the world advances i'll CIVIL
ization, it becomes more luxurious. ana the
pamperng of the body seems to be an IN
separable accompaniment OF the cultivation
of the mind. This ought not to be; but 1t is,
and no argument can alter the fact, though
wholesome advice and judiciOus precautionary
and remedial treatment may mitigate the eYll.
Savages, we are told, are not troubled with
dyspepsia but this diCtum Is open TO doubt:
PnyatiOn and hardship, as well as high living and
dissipation, engcnder the disease and 1t would
therefore seem that the man of the wilderness,
as well as the dwellcr in cities, must be more
or less subject to it. One thing, however, Is
certain: i'm no country under Heaven Is II so
prevalent rs in the United States. Here the
disease has become dOmesticated; it is to be
found i'm almost every household; and, conse-
auently household remedy for dyspepsia Is OF
inestimable value to the American people.
Few disorders involve greater suffering; and,
if not in itself Immediately dangerous, 1t Is the
fOrerunner and source of many deadly mala-
dies. But even if it did not tend to shorten
life-which it undoubtedly does the mental
and physical misery which 1t produces, ana
which renders life comparatively unenJOyaDie,
is a sufficient reason why 10 pains should be
spared in the effort to prevent and cure 1t.
Physicians, "A a general rule, admit that no
disease gives them so much trouble as dys-
pepSia but they attribute the difficulty OF cur
ing il to the unwillngness of their patients to
abandon the habits which occasion lt--Such as
excessive application to business, hastlness IN
eating etc, etc. 1t is no doubt true that the
best treatment of a complaint may tall TO cure
il, IL the patient refuses to exercise common
prudence. But it is also true that what are
called the official remedies for dyspepsia do
not under iany circumstances produce peTlna-
ncnt relief On the other hand, it is fact
established by thousands of creditable witnesses,
whose testimony il simply a statement OF
their own experience, that IlOstetters St0m-
ach Btters will cure the malady, and that
nm occasional use of the preparation after
the cure has been effected Is a perpetual safe
guard against the recurrence of the symptoms.
On this account many intelligent members OF
the faculty have abandoned all the stereotyped
prescriptions of the PharmacGpa' and now IN
variably and with great success, administer
this popular tonic.
FEVER AND AGUE--INTERMITTENTs GEN
ERALLY.-Fever and Ague, unfortunately, Is TOO
widely known by experience to render length
encd description of its symptoms necessary.
In order to escape fever and ague In any re-
gion, II is only necessary to tortIy the sys-
tenn against atmospheric poison by the reg
ular use of HOstetter's Stomach Bltters by
this means all danger is avoided. Some rules
have exceptions; this has none. SO surely as
the Bittcrs are taken as II preventive, SO
surely will the individual who adopts this pre-
caution be exempted from the pains and pen
alties of one of the most harasslng complaints
to which the dwelleIS in unhealthy districts are
subjected. As a remedy the preparation has no
equal. Without entailing any OF the unpleasant
and dangerous consequences which accompany
and follow the use of quinine, / breaks up the
paroxysms and rapidly restores the strength OF
the cOnyaleScent. If the preparation had no
other merit than its wonderful efficacy as pre-
tentative of and cure for intermittent fever it
would bc an article of the first necessity IN all
new settlements and low marShy districts. Add
to this its value as a stOmachic and an anti
bilious agent, and who will venture TO gainsay
its claims To the very best place among family
medicines.
BILIOUS REMTTENT FEyER.-This is a disease
of a more malignant type than ordinary " chills
and fever but it springs from the same
cause, malaria. and may be i0reStalled by the
same means, viz, a precautionary course OF
Iostetter's Stomach Btters. In order to render
the system malaria proof, 1t must be endowed
with extra yigOr, and put in all respects in
perfect order To effect these objects, the
Bittcrs must be reSorted TO. Remittent
fever, il is firmly believed, may be certainly
prevented by the daily use of this unapproach
able protective preparation. III the disorder is
already i'm progress, il should be taken between
the hot stages As the pulse is up to one
hundred and twenty or one hundred and thirty
during the hot fits it would not, of course, be
prudent to administer the tonic then; but
when prOstration comes on, and the pulse is
tim and feeble, II may be given with great adj
vantage; and also when the patient is recover
ing, rs means of recruiting the strength. In
deed, in all cases of convalescence this power
full but harmless tonic should be administered.
1t is the safest rs well as the best of restOr-
atives.
BmIoUsNEss.-Th liver is the largest
gland in the body, and the most inn
portant of the secretive organs except
