that, outside of the merits of the bill Itself,

Established facts are silent arguments which
neither pen nor tongue can shake, and it Is upon
established facts that the reputation Of HOSTEL
TER,s STOMACH BITTERS, as . health. preserv-
ing Elixir, and Wholesome and powerful reme-
DIV, is based. When witnesses come forward In
crowds, year after year, and reIterate the same
statements In relation to the beneficial effects Of
medicine upon themselves, disbelief In Its elca.
cy is literally impossible. The credentials OF this
unequalled tonic and Alternative, extending over a
period OF nearly twenty years, include individu-
ais OF every class, and residents OF every cline,
and refer to the most prevalent among the COM
plants which aflIct and harass the human fami-
w. Either multitude OF people, strangers to
each other, have annually been seized with an In
sane and motiyeess desire to deceive the public,
or HOsTETTER'S BITTERS for no less than
fifth OF century, have been atfording such relief
to sufferers from indigestion, fever and ague bill
iousness, general debility and nervous disorders,
as no other preparation has ever impaired. To.
day. while the eyes Of the reader are upon these
lines. tens OF thousands OF persons Of both sexes
are relying upon the Bitters as sure defence
against the ailments which the present season en-.
genders, and their confidence is not misplaced.
The local pOtions which interested dealers some
times endeavor to fois upon the sick In Its stead
are everywhere meeting the fate that Is due to
fraud and Imposture, while the demand for the
great vegetable specific is constantly increasing.
