To DYsPEPTIC SUFFERERS.

CaSsed all the varieties OF indigestion. It's synp-
toms are so various, and differ so much in differ
ent individuals that it is almost impossible TO
classify them. In fact, some of them are utterly
indescrlbable. 1t may be safely asserted, now
ever, that half the diseases of mankind sprlhg
from disordered condition of the stomach; anu
that the other half, whatever their origin reao'
upon that sensitive and important organ Aihons
the ordinary indications of dyspepsia are na'u-
lence a bloated and full feeling about the sIo'n-
ach and abdomen Immediately after eatihg'

and disinclination for exertiOn, and sometimes
emacation and a corpse-like pallor. These are
n few of the direct signs of dyspepsia, but as
it is generally complicated with specific aftec-
tions of the bowels, the liver, and the nerves,
its victims have many additional torments which
are technically attributed to other causes.
The best advice that can be given to any one
who has the slightest predisposition to dyspep-
sia is to fortify his or her digestive organs by
the daily use of Hostetter's Btters. The dis
ease proceeds from lack of vigor IN the
stomach, and this Vtalizing Preparation will
tone and renovate that organ. If the gastric
apparatus is in good working order, and can
perfectly dissolve and thoroughly assimilate
the food submitted to its operation, there VIII
be no dyspepsia. If it cannot do this 1t re-
ouires Reinforcement, and the best OF all reen-
forcing agents should be forthwith resorted to.
The stomach is the commissary OF the system.
1t supplies the elements of life to the whole
body. In it is prepared the material of blood,
muscle, bone and fiber aud if 1t fails to pur-
yey that material in sufficient quantity, and of
q proper kind, the whole body suffers, and
with it the mental faculties Therefore. pro-
tect the commssariat department.. Don't let
the enemy obtain possession of it. 1t is easier
to prevent disease from getting into an organ
than to expel it after it becomes chronic fix
ture. Consider the first indication of uneasi-
ness in the stomach as a sign that dyspepsia is
preparing to attack, and battle it at once with
this great expellant.
But if it is too late to prevent remember
that it is not too late TO cure. 1t is believed
that there is no case of chronic indigestion
that can withstand the remedial operation of
Hostetters Stomach Bitters. This belief is
grounded on twelve years. experience of the
efficacy of the preparation. The first instance
of its failurato give relief is yet unchronicled.
If it ever had failed, the voluminOus core
spondence addressed to the propretors from all
| parts of the United States and South America,
would at least include one letter expressing

! than dozen years, is all of the same approving

claiming that the Bitters are a specific for in

IiOus diseases.
The infatuation of human nature is astOnish-
ing. Thousands of individuals whose business
takes them into unhealthy districts, where they
must necessarily breathe imprisoned air, and
drink imprisoned water, neglect to provide
themselves with any antidote thereto How

"All men think all men mortal. but themselves"
These foohardy people hatter themselves
that although others have fallen by the way

Nay, even the settlers in new and insaubrious
regions are often equally remiss. They either
take their periodical shakings and burnngs as
unavoidable dispensations of Providence, or
only seek TO check them by inadequate and
sometimes dangerous means. And yet llIostet
ters Stomach Bitters. an absolute protection
against intermittent and remittent fevers Of all
types are advertised in every local paper, and
can scarcely be unknown TO any portion Of
the reading public. 1t is true that the demand
for the Bitters increases rapidly, and that
every season adds largely to the number Of
those who acknowledge its virtues as an ac-
climating preparation yet there are multi
tudes now enduring a living martyrdom
from Chis and Fever. who, at the cost
of few bottles of this irresistible tonic,
might enjoy uninterrupted health the Whole

generated by miasma and polluted water. No

be without this unequaled tonic and disinfec-

cially that of Mississippi and its tributaries, is

Middle States. 1t invariably sickens them if
taken into the stomach in an unmixed state.
