A Card to Sensible PeOpIe,

Rational reader, If the aspect of the weather was
uncertain, you would not be foolish enough to
venture out without an overcOat or an umbrella
Have the forecast then to protect yourself at this
dangerous season with something more important
than either of these articles. Strengthen your
stomach and nervous system; regulate your liver
and your bowels, tone all your organs and cheer
your animal spirits with that agreeable cordial,
tonic and Alternative, Hostetter's Stomach Btters.
SO shall you surely escape the diseases which fast
en- upon the feeble and debilitated. "Suffer and
he strong" says the proverb; but Be strong
that you may not suffer :" is the wiser maxim. And
OF all strengthening preparations this is the safest
the surest, the most genial. As a remedy, as well
as an antidote, for dyspepsia fever and ague, and
liver disease, there is combination of vegetable
specifics at present known which even approaches
1t in efficacy.
Anticipate the enemy. The elements of innu-
merable diseases are afoat in the raw, damp, me-
phitic winter air. VIII you defend yourself
against them or not good reader? That is the
question. A bottle or two of the great DEFENSIVE
MEDICINE OF THE AGE, Hostetter's Btters, will so
strengthen and brace up your bodily powers as to
enable them to "laugh siege to scorn.n The
morbid matter which was exhaled in perspiration
| through your pores in summer finds no such free
egress now A powerful counteracting agent is
therefore needed, and You have 1t in Hostetter's
Bitters. They neutralize the mdterieS DiOrbi from
which disease originates, and regulate all the Sc
cretive organs. Nothing can be more harmless or
more Notwithstanding so potent to prevent or
cure biliousness, dyspepsia, FEVER and ague, con-
stipation and general debility, as this wonderful
corrective.
n MOST DellghtIul Dessert may I've iound IN the
new article of food, SEA Moss FARINR, which can he
purchased for twenty-five cents package that win pro
duce sixteen quarts of most excellent blanc mango or a
proporonate quantity Of cusards light puddings rina,
creams sauces gruels, Charlotte Russo, &c. This seems
almost incredible; but Il Is vouced for by ladies of the
highest respecahy who append ernames to th@ state
ments. The Company state at least my delicious dishes
be made from the Sea Moss Fine and give In their
circular the recipes for many Of them. We consider MFR.
and indeed for all classes Of society in these stringent
times.
WE take delight in referring our afflicted friends
to any drug store where that most estimable medi-
cine DR.. S. o. Richardson's Sherry Wine Bitters,
can be procured. We advise our friends to it,
because we know its value in curing Fever and
| Ague, diseases common in the West, and all new
countries. 1t should be kept at hand In every
! family. Sold by medicine dealers generally.
