CONSTITUTIONAL DIFFERENCES -
There are many constitutions so inherently de-
fective in energy as TO derive great benefit from
a moderate use of pure liquor combined with
such vegetable medicines and extracts as enter
into the composition of Roback's SIoms ch Bit
ters, and there are many situations in which
even the healthiest derive additional security
from their occasional use.
If healthy persons are exposed to unusual
and continued exertion in confined air, or under
the heat of the sun, OF 10 the influence OF de
pressing watchiulinesS Of travelling, ond change
OF diet and water, or if residents OF maarious
districts the rank river bottoms of lie " ST
and South, there can be no doubt but a careful
use of RoBACK's STOMACH BiTTERs with the food
would surely be the means OF SardiHg of actual
disease and enabling them to bear unaffected,
where, without the Bitters, they would likely
have to SucCumI to disease. They strengthen
tone and invigorate, aid digestion and increase
the appetite.
