ONE MILLION OF LIVES sAvEDl

/
Of all the multifarious diseases to which
the human system is liable,
there is perhaps no one so
generally prevalent as dyspepsia. There
are diseases more acute and painful, an 4
which more frequently prove fatal, but
none the effects of which are so depressing
to the mind and so positively distressing to
the body. If there is wretched being in
the world it is
A CONFIRMED DysPzPTIC.
We have said that dyspepsia is perhaps
the most universal of human diseases.
This is imphaticaly the case in the United
States. Whether this general prevalence
is due to the Character of the food, the
method of its preparation, or the TASTY
manner in witch it is usually swallowed,
is not our province to explain. The great
fact WITH which we are called to deal is
this:
DYSPEPSIA PREVAILS
almost univel sally.
Nearly every other person you meet is
victim an apparently willing one; were
this not the case, why so many sufferers,
when certain, speedy and safe remedy is
within the easy reach of all who will
avail themselves of it? But says q dys-
reply: This great allevator of human
suffering is almost as widely known as the
English language 1t has alayei the
agonies of thousands, and is to-day carry
comfort and encouragement TO thousands
of others. THIS acknowledged panacea is
noLe other than
DR.. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS
Would you know more of the merits of
this wonderful prepar alton than can be
learned from the experience of others?
Try it yourself and when it has failed to
fulfil the assurance of its efficacy given by
the proprietor, then abandon faith in 1t.
LET 1T BE REmEMBERED,
first of all, that HOOFLAND'S GERMAN
BITTERS is not rum beverage.
) They are composed wholly of the pure
juice or vital principle of roots. This is
not a mere assertion. The extracts from
} which they are compounded are prepared by
one of the ablest of German chemists. Their
effects can be beneficial only in all cases of
the hillary system. Hollands German
: Bitters stand without an equal, acting
promptly and vigorously upon the liver;
they remove it's torpidity and cause health
full secretion of bile-thereby supplying
| the stomach with the most indispensable
elements CT sound digestion in proper pro-
portions.
. They purify the blood, cleansing the
vital fluid of all hurtful impurities and SUI
S planting them with the elements of genuine
o healthfulness.
Now, there are certain classes Of per.
e sous to whom extreme Bitters are not only
q unpalatable, but who find it impossible tc
take them without positive discomfort. Fol
c such Dr. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC
has been specially prepared. 1t is intended
for use where o slight alcoholic stimulan
j is reauirei in connection with the we'll
t known Tonic properties Of the pure Ger
man Bitters.
J. HOOFLAND'S TONIC
g acts with almost marvellous effect. 1t no
J. only stimulates the tagging and wasting
energies, but invigorates and permanent,
r. strengthens its action upon the Live
n and Stomach thorough, perhaps les
prompt than the Bitters, when the sam
J. quantity is taken is none the less certain
,r Indigestion, Billiousness, Physical or Ner
vous prostration, yield readily to its po
:; tent influence. 1t gives the invalid a ney
re and stronger hold upon life, removes de
pressioa of spirit. and inspires cheerful
ness. But DR.. Hollands benefactions t
the human race are not confined to hi
celebrated GERMAN BITTERS, or hi
invaluable Tonic. He has prepared an
/. other medicine, which is rapidly winnin
:, its way to popular favor because of its in
~ trinsic metits. This is HOOFLAND'
PODOPHYLLIN PILLS, a perfect substi
10 tute for mercury without any of mercury
evil qualities.
These wonderful Pills, which are Intend
lie ed to act upon the Liver, are mainly CON
posed of Podophylln, or the vital princi
. pie of the mandrake root 1t is the medi
cinal virtues of this health giving plant i
a perfectly pure and highly concentrate
ne form. The Podophyllin acts directly o
the Liver, stimulating its functions an
causing it to make its hillary secretions
ry regular and proper quantities. The init
rious results which invariably follow tn
~ use of mercury is entirely avoided b
their use. But it is not upon the Live
only that their powers are exerted. I'll
is extract of Mandrake contained in them
skillfully combined with four other e.
r tracts, one of which acts upon the stomach
OF one upon the upper bowels, one upon IL
lower bowels. and prevents any gripin
.d effect, thus producing pill that influence
~ the entire digestive and alimentary system
in an equal and harmonious manner, AT
rk its action entirely free from nausea, vomi
ing or gripping pains common to all 9th
7. p urgatives.
Ike Possessing these much desirable qualiti
the Podophyllin becomes invaluable as
