UTILlTY.-No attempt has ever been made or

PLANTATION BrrTERs. 1t contains alcohol;
and no Bitters that does not contain alcohol is
worth rush. Water will neither preserve the
virtues Of tonic vegetables nor renderthem active
in the system. This Is chemical fact which no
one competent to deliver an opinion on the sub:
ject will deny. Water tonlcs turn sour on the
stomach, II they are not sour to begin with,
(which is frequently the oase) and produce and
promote Indigestion, instead Of curinglt. Let It,
therefore, be distinctly understood that PLANTA.
TON BlTTERS is an alcohol restorative. But
mark this: it is strictly q medicine, not a bev.
erage. It sto be taken 10 limited quantities and
at stated times, like other remedies and anti
dotes, and therefore ts use Is In accordance with
temperance law, as well as with that "hlgher
law" which renders 1t incumbent upon every
being gifted with reason to resort to the best pos
sble means OF accomplishing salutary end.

..~ DEFENSIVE MEDICATION.--IN-
yEsTIGATI0N is as necessary for the protection
Of the human body against disease when un-
healthy influences are abroad as iron arnor and
granite easements are for the protection OF ships
and fortresses when assaIled by shot and shell.
Hence 1t s desirable, when those potent enemies
of vtality-.damp and cold-pervade the air we
breathe, to put the system In the best possible
condition to encounter them. The stomach Is the
organ by which every other organ Is nourished
and sustained and therefore upon its vigorous
and regular action depends, In great measure,
the capacity Of the system to resist the assaults
OF the invisible enemies OF health and life, by
which, at this inclement season. 1t is surrounded.
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIrTERS an admirable
tonic and regulating medicine for all seasons is
never more needed than in winter, when the tor
plying influence Of q chilly atmosphere affects all
the vital functions and renders the body extreme
ly susceptible. BY toning the digestive organs
and the ll7er aud the bowels with this unequalled
vegetable specific, physical condition is attained
which seems to be proof against all varieties OF
temperature, and thas Is inimlcable in the afr Of
winter. Defensive medication, Is q precaution
which should never be neglected when danger is
present, and therefore course or the Bltters at
this seas1ns is particularly desirable, especially for
the feeble and sickIy. AS a remedy for bilious
ness, dyspepsia, nervousness and bowel COM
plants, there Ia nothing comparable to this whole.
