VVithout a Good Dirention

Without "a Good Digestion
All other temporal blessings are comparatively
worthless. The dyspeptlc millionaire who has
tried all the potions of the medical profes
in vain, and believes his complaint to be Incur
able, would give half his fortune to be freed
from the horrors of indigestion, and thus en-
abed to enjoy the other half. Of course lie ,cOuld
Perhaps HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT
TER'S has been recommended to such q suffer-
er. Possibly he has turned from the friend who
made the suggestion with a sneer, intimating
that he has no faith in any ''pAtent medicine. ="
If this has been the case, so much he voSse for
him. His incredulity dooms him to a life Of
misery. All the luxuries which wealth can pur-
chase are at his command. Not one of them
can give him pleasure. His own irrational OBJ
sti macy is his bane.
The masses. happily for themselves, are less
'keptical. There is such thing as bigOted u'-
belief as well as bigoted credulity, and golden
mean between the two, which men and women
who are gifted with common sense adopt and
profit by. These are the class that patronize and
recommend HoSTETTER 8 BITTERs Why
do they approve this famous antl-dyspeptlc and
anti-bilious preparation7 Simply because they
have not been too much the slaves of senseless
prejudice to give 1t a fair trial. and have found
that when oil other ton les, stimulants and stom-
achlcs failed, 1t produced the desired effect.
"strlke, but hear" said the Roman sage,
when his ignorant enemies were assaIling him.
Doubt, but trv, says the man who has been
cured of indigestion, or biliousness or intermit-
tent fever, by the BitterS, as he relates his ex-
perience of the medicine to his invalid friends
Whoever is so welded to his own foregone the
oretical conclusions, as to decline to test the
properties of q medicine endorsed by the testi-
mony of intelligent men in every walk of life
and approved by the people at large, dessrrss to
