The Wear and Tear of Business Life

The cares and labors of business life are apt to
tell severely upon the health and constitution OF
the ardent, energetic business man, and when the
need of some sustaining agent is felt, stimulants
that cause only 9 temporary exhilaration, and
leave the system in state OF partial collapse when
their first efFect has passed of, are too often re-
sorted to. As certainly as FIRE leaves behind 1t
residuum Of ashes, the use of the adulserated L.
quors of commerce produces premature exhaus-
ton and decay. Touch them not. Tone and reg
ulate the overtaxed vital machinery with Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitfers. In that wholesome elixir,
the alclIoc element, which is the purest deriyable
from any source is tempered by the choicest tonic,
aperient anti-bilious, and anti-febrile vegetable
extracts and juices To strengthen, recruit solsce
and purify the system is the mission Of the great
vegetable specific. When the stomach is in a
healthy state, the bile flows regularly, the bowels
perform their Office properly, and the Geographic
bres of the nervous system are In perfect working
order an enormous amount of labor can be borne
without risk or inconvenience, and the direct ef-
feet of the Bitters is to promote this vigorous
| dition of the functions upon which the nourish-
ment Of the body, and its power of endurance
mainly depend. The great tonic and Alternative
| is therefore, emphatically recommended for its
remarkable strengthening properties, to all upon
whom the responsibilities Of life press heavily, and
who feel like fainting under the burthen. lively
appetite, splendid digestion, elastic Spirits and
| marvellous ability to Withstand fatigue, are
among the blessings justly ascribed to the renova-
ting operation of this palatable and powerful cor
dial, and q spring and summer Alternative, there
is nothing in the materia medica that can be COM
pared with it. maj deodlw1w1t

THE GREAT
SPRING AND SUMMER TONIC.

Medical treatment has been revolution
lied, and at last the discovery has been
made that RENOVATION, NOT PROS
TRATI0N, Is THE TRUE MEDICAL
PHILOSOPHY. The introduction Of
PLANTATION BITTERS, pre-
ps,ed with pure ST. Croix Rum and
Calisays Bark, opened the eyes Of the
world to this great fact. The nfe-sus-
tanning principle embodied in this great
Vegetable Restorative is manifested In
the weak and responding by an immedi-
ate and most encouraging change. II
the appetite has failed, 1t Is quickened;
if digestion has been painful and imper-
feet it becomes easy and thorough; If
the liver is torpid, 1t is reused and regu-
lated; If the nerves are relaxed, they are
strengthened and resr1ng; II the brain
has been haunted by morbid fancieA they
are put to fight and hope and cheerful
ness return. In the face of the extraor-
binary cures of general debility, dyspep-
sia, biioumess, constipation and mental
dependency, wrought by Plantation
Bitters, no practitioner not In league with
death and the undertaken could persist In
it. The terrible evacueut1 which were
once prescribed as the Spring and Sum-
mer medicines, hayo utterly lost their
prestige. The sick willnot take them,
and Plantation Bitters, In which are CON-
bined the elements Of stomachio, "a
invigorant q mild laxative, 3 nervins and
an ana-bilious specific, reign In thsir
stead. Sold by al Druggists
