FAITH WE'LL

In old times. at the commencement Of every

tnartlc IS q safeguard against 3 change of tenn
perature. It was aworse than s%enseless prac-
tice, The people of our day understand tho
matter. Instead of depicting the system, they
exhibit a wise determination. Instead of
r%esorting to the vitisted stimulsn!s of COM
merce or any Of the compounds derived from
them, they put their faith in the only absolute
y pure invigorant procarab!e in the market
Hostetter's Stomach Bitte-s. Their faith is we'll
founded. New has any tonic medicine been
prepared with such scruru'ous precision and
conscientious care. L. is q vegetable compound
CT which every ingredient is sound, wholesome
and medicinal in the true sense OF the word
Now, We have three prominent national COM
plants. One-half of the adult population of
the United Ststes suffer more or less, either
from oisess es OF the stomach, arrangements of
the liver, or affections of the kidneys In no
other and under Heaven are these msladies so
general as in this country, and Hostetter'. Bit

their origin and, therefore beyond cure. And
let those who are fortunate enough to be exempt
from them st present understand one great fact,
viz: thst an occasional use Of this vitslizing
tonic will as certainly prevent them as the sun
will prevent the earth from freezing where its
genial beams descend. dec 12-eo1w
