nT GIVE NATURE LIFT.-People ex-
pect too much of nature. They tribe with their
health and their constitutions, and then are sur
prsed that they fall sick.
The pressure OF constant mental or bodily labor
upon the animal powers is tremendous. Very few
systems and constitutions can bear up against this
pressure unassisted. Add to this the unhealthy
influences which Turk unseen in the air we
breathe, the water we drink, the lassitude pro-
duced at this season by the change from the rigor
OF winter to the warmth of spring, and 1t would
seem to require almost superhuman vigor to keep
in perfect health without reinforcing the physical
energies.
But how reinforce them Certainly not with
adultsrated stimuants There is no poison in the
outer air or in the atmosphere Of furnace heated
rooms or workshops, or factories, so pernicious
as those deadly, burning fluids.
Why use them when
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BlTTERS,
a vegetable tonic without alloy, are everywhere
obtainable' Nothing has ever been offered to
the feeble and debilitated so harmless in its ma
ture so powerful III its nvigorating effects, as this
celebrated
sTOMACHIC AND Alternative.
In the army and the navy, in new settlements,
and in crowded cities, by old and young, rich and
poor, it is used az a PROTECTIVE and RESTORA-
TIVE MEDICINE with most gratifying results.
