RIO DYsPEPTIC SUFFERERS.

tOills are so various, ana uluer 80 much IN dler-
ent individuals, that it is almost impossible To
classify them. In fact, some of them are utterly
Undesirable. 1t may be safely asserted, hew. :
ever. that half the diseases Of mankind sprins
from disordered condition of the stomach and
that the other half whatever their origin, react
upon that sensitive and important organ Among
the ordinary indications of dyspepsia are fatu-
lence, blOated and full feeling about the ston.

giawng sensation, or a sense Of hollowness al

dull feeling in the head, feeble or unsteady
appetite, occasional nausea, restlessness during
the night and weary unrefreshed feeling on
rising in the morning palpitation of the heart,
depression of mind, sometimes amounting to
monomania, loss of memory, confusion of
thought. sour stomach with raising OF food,
and choking sensation in the throat, dmness
of the eye, pain in the diaphragm, feebeness
and disinclination for exertion, and sometimes
emaciation and o corpse-like pallor. These are
few of the direct signs of dyspepsia, but as
1t is generally complicated with specific affec- .
tions of the bowels the liver, and the nerves, z
its victims have many additional torrents which
are technically attributed to other causes.
The best advice that can be given to any
one who has the slightest predispOstion TO
dyspepsia is to fortify his or her digestive or
gans by the daily use of Hostetter's Bitters.
The disease proceeds from lack of vigor in
the stomach, and this Vitalizing Preparation
will tone and renovate that organ. Ii tie gas
trio apparatus is in good working order, and
can perfectly dissolve and thoroughly assmi-
late the food submitted to its operation, there
will be no dyspepsia. If it cannot do this il
requires reinforcement, and the best OF all
reinforcing agents should be forthwith resorted
to. The stomach is the cOmmissary OF the sys-
TEN. 1t supplies the elements OF life to the
whole body In it is prepared the material OF
blood, muscle, bone and fiber, and if il fails to
purvey that material in sufficient quantity, and
of proper kind, the whole body suffers, and
with it the mental faculties. Therefore pro-
tect the commissariat 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 uneasl-
ness in the stomach as a sign that dyspepsia
is preparing to attack, aud battle it Mt once
with this great expellant.
But if it is too late to prevent, remember
that it is not too late to cure. 1t is lolleyet
that there is no case of chronic indigestion
that can withstand the remedial operation OF
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This belief IL
grounded on twelve years experience OF the
efficacy of the preparation. The first instance
of its failure to give relief is yet uncllronicled.
If it ever had failed the volumincus corre-
spondence addressed to the propretois from
Ck.ko
ica would at least include one letter express
ing dissatisfaction. But no, there is not one.
The testimony, extending over period OK
more than dozen years, is all OF the same
approving tenor. Certainly this is sufficient
warrant for claiming that the BtterS are
specific for indigestion in all its varieties, fe-
yer and ague, remittent fever, marsh fever,
and other malarious diseases.
The infatuation of human nature is istOnlsh-
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 antdote thereto How
true it is that
IAN men think all mon mortal. but Themselves"
These foolhardy people fatter themselves
that although others have fallen by the way
side, they can resist the influence of malaria
Nay, even the settlers III new and inSAiubuous
regions are often equally remiss. They either
take their periodical shakings aud butamgs ma
unavoidable dispensations of Providence, or
only seek to check them by inadequate and
sometimes dangerous means And yet hostet-

Chills and Fever, who. at the cost OF n few
bottles of this irresistible tonic, might enjoy

No fact in medical history is better estab-
lished than the potency of the Bitters as Il safe
guard against epidemic and endemic maladies
generated by miasma and polluted water. No
traveller in, or resident Of, marshy. over
wooded, or uncutivated tract OF country, should
be without this unequaed tonic and dlsinfec-

cally that of Mississippi and its Tributaries, 10

Middle States 1t invariably sckens item
