ONE M1LLIoS OF LIVES SAVED.

persons are the victtns Of dyspepsia or in,
digestion. tut Its wiling victims. Now,
we would mot be understood to saw tha. an
one regards dyspepsia with favor. or feels
disposed to rank it among the luxuries Of
life. Far frem it.s Those who have eE-
perienced ifs toTments would scout such on
idea. All dread il, and would gladly dis

Mark Tapley, who was jolly under ail the
Irving circumstances, in which he was
placed never had an attack of dyspepsia,
or his joli,y would have speedily forsaken

OF all the multifarious3 diseases to which
the human system is liable.
l there is perhaps no one 60
generally prevalent as dyspepsia. There
are diseases more acute and painful, and
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 a wretched being in
the world it is
A CONFIRMED DYSPEPTIC.
We have said that dyspepsia is perhaps
the most universal Of human diseases.
This is imphatically 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 hasty
manner in which it is usually swallowed,
is not our province to explain. The great
fact with which we are called to deal is

DR.. BOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
Would you know more of the merits of
this wonderful preparation 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 REnEMBERED,
first of all, that HOoFLAND'S GERMAN |
BlTTERS is ~s arum beverage.
They are composed wholly of she pure
juice or vital principleiof roots. .This is
not mere assertion. The extracts from |
which they are ecompoundedare prepared by |
one of the ablest of German chemists. Their |
effects can be beneficial only in all eases of |
the hillary system. Hollands German |
Bitters stand without an equal, acting |
promptly and vigorously upon the liver;
they remove its torpidity and cause health
ful secretion of bile-thereby supplying |
the stomach with the most indispensable |
elements Of sound digestion in proper pro-
portions.
They purify the blood, cleansing the
vital fuid Of all hurtfal impurities and su-
planting them with the elements of genuine
healthfulness.
Now, there are certain classes Of per-
sons to whom extreme Bitters are not only
unpalatable, but who ded it impossible te
take them without positive discomfort For
such Dr.. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC
has been specially prepared. 1t is intended
for use where slight alcoholic stimulant
is requires in connection with the we'll
known Tonic properties of the pure Ger
man Bitters. -..t
HOOFLAND's TONIC
acts with almost marvellous effect. II not
only stimulates the tagging and wasting
energies, but invigorates and permanently

prompt than the Bitters, vixen the same
quantity is taken is none the less certain.

Toue prostration, yield readily to its po-
ent ntinfuence. 1t gives the invalid new

sess. But DR.. Hollands benefactions to
he human race are not confined to his
GERMAN BITTERS, or his
invaluable Tonic. He has prepared an.
,ther medicine, which is rapidly winning
is way to popular favor because of its in
rinsic metits. This is HOOFLAND'S |
PILLS, perfect substi-
ute for mercury without any of mercury's
,vil qualities.
These wonderful Pills, which are Intend.
ID to act upon the Liver, are mainly COM
'osed of Podophyllin, or the vital princi-
lie Of the mandrake root. 1t is the medi-
inal virtues of this health giving plant in
perfectly pure and highly concentrated
orm. The PodophylIin acts directly on
he Liver, stimulating its functions and
ausing it to make its hillary secretions in
eguar and proper quantities. The iniu-
ious results which invariably follow the
se of mercury is entirely avoided by
heir use. But it is not upon the Liver
My that their powers are exerted. The
xtract OF Mandrake contained in then is
killfully combined with four other ex-
racts, one of which acts upon the stomach,
ne upon the upper bowels, enc upon the
'wer bowels. and prevents any gripping n
fleet, thus producing pill that influences
ne entire digestive and alimsntary system,
a an equal aEd harmonious manner, and
s action entirely tree from nausea, vomit-
,g or gripping pains common to all other =
urgatiyes.
Possessing these much desirable qualities
le Podophyllin becomes invaluable as
