they should DE promptly met by tonic tres!-
ment. The best invigorant and exhilarsnt that
can be administered in g case OF this klIlq Is
Hostetter:s Stomach Bitters. The stimulating
principle Of the preparation rouses the dormant
energies of the system, and the strengthening
and Regulating properties give a permanent and
hcalthtul impulse to the vital forces thus
brought into play. The failing appetite is lea
wakened, the process OF digestion and a%sslinlla-
ton is quicksned. the quality or the blood IS
improved, tho secretiors become more natural,
and every organ that contributes 70 the nour-
isimcnt Of the body undergoes sa!utsry change.
By these means the repair of the physical struc-
ture is effected and its health and vlgor restored.
In 10 class Of diseases has the benihcent opera
ton Of the Bitters been more marked and strlk-
ing than in those characterized by general de-
biilty and nervous prostration. Ladies affected
with these ailments lind in this most wholesome
OF vii tonics and correctives the safest and surest
means Of relief. 1t is strong to restore and pow
