SAM in curing tho most deep seated Pulmonary
Consumption! / havo witnessed its effects ON
tho young and tho old, and can truly say TINT

first appearance Of disease about tho Lungs thero
would DO worry few of fatal consumption.-

swoats, and changes all tho morbid secretions to

lnrity is pretty good guarantee Of merit in this
scrutinizing and intelligent age, aud tried by this
criterion llostctter's Stomach Bittcrs stands first
among the invigorati,.. s and regulating medicines
of the present day. To tho wants of persons ell
gagged in indoor empoymen,s, especially in
crowded factories where even with the best posi-
bic ventilation the atmosphere is always in some
dcgrcc polluted, this saubrinus vegetable tonic is
peculiarly adapted. Tho nature of the irsrc.
licnts is no mystery. 1t consists of an absolute

surcta targcd-with the fluid extracts Of sanatous
roots and bnrks and herbs Tho plinrmncupccia
has its tinctures, but what nro they I? Tho juice
of only single root or bark or plan, is present
in each. Not ono Of them combines tho three
properties Of II tonic, nm Alternative, and an apo
ricnt. All those clcmcnts arc blended in the
Bittcrs; nor are these tho sum of its medicinal
recommendations. 1t is also n b.oud deprrcnt
and an antspasmodic.

tally exhausted ofits oxygen by frequent breath
ing produces an the vital organization, is noto-
rious, and when to this dcvitalizcd atmosphere is
supera'l'led the mcphic vapor Of hot air fur.

tho extreme. To enable the system to bear up,
even Tor few hours each day against tho .lekil

qnircd. This grand diScrutu,n is supplied in
