Ladies all praise "Barrett's."


The vast and continually increasing sales
of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters have pro-
yoked the envy of a certain class of dealers
in various parts of the country, who are
trying to substitute their utterly worthless
local nostrums for the most popular propri-
etary medicine ia the world. These impos-
tiers hope by their false statements to OBJ
tain from the millions who patronize the
great American Tonic, a sufficient number
Of customers to make their speculations
upon the health of their neighbors profita-
bic. As the demand for Hostetter's Bitters
is now so large and urgent as to tax to their
fullest extent the facilities for its manufac
ture. these petty attempts to wiring in the
merest Trash by false representations, are of
little consequence to its proprietors. They
are, however, a serious evil to the victim
lied. If for example, at this warm season,
when a real invigOrant is greatly needed,
the sufferer from general debility, indiges-
ton, biliousness or nervous weakness, is
coaxed into using a wishy washy compound
without any medicinal virtue, instead of the
sovereign specific in which the rarest tonic
and Alternative vegetable elements are scien-
tfcally combined, it is obvious that he will
rue the day when he allowed himself to be
thus deluded. 1t is in the interest of par
ties who have been or may be Influenced by
the persuasion of plausible charlatans, that
this article is published. With the light of
twenty years experience to guide him, why
should the invalid take leap in the dark.
