A BODY AND MIND DISEASE.

Such is Dyspepsia. The stomach and the brain
without the other, SO that dyspepsia and despon-
dency are inseparable 1t may be added, too,
that irritation of the stomach is almost invaria-
bly, acco npanied by irritation Of the temper.
Tha invigorating and tranquillizng operation
of Hostetter's Bitters is most powerfully devel-
oped in cases of Indigestion. The first effect Of
this agreeable tonic is confronting and encourag-
Jag. mild glow pervades the system, the
ehro lie uueasiness in the region Of the stomach
is essened, and the nervous restlessness which
chaTa cterizes the disease is abated. This i'm
prov sment is not transient. 1t is not succeeded
by the return of the old symptoms with superad-
ded force, as is always the case when unmedca-
ted stimulants given for the complaint. Each
dose te inpart permanent accession OF
heathful inauguration. But this is not all. The
aperiant and ambitious properties of the prep
aration are scarcely secondary in Importance to
its tonic virtues. If there is overflow of bile
the secretion is soon brought within proper linz
its, and if the bfieary organ is innert and torpid
it is toned and regulated. The effect upon the
dischargng organs is equally saluary, and in
cases of constipation the catllartc action is just
sufficient to produce the desired result gradually
and without pain. The Bitters also promote
healthy evaporation from the surface which is
particularly desirable at this season when sud
den spells of raw, unpleasant weather are apt to
check the natural Precipitation and produce con-
gestion of the liver. coughs, and colds. The best
safeguard against all diseases is bodily vgor, and
this the great Vegetable Restorative essentially
promotes. $3.50 NJ.
