A ClIaptcr of Facts,

Space is valuable in n newspaper, and 1t is
therefore proposed in this advertisement to con-
dense variety of facts. important to the public,
into n small compass. Those facts refer to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters-what that celebrated
medicine is and what IL will do. In the first
place, then, the article is n stimulant, tonic and
Alternative, consisting of n combination of an
absolutely pure spirituous agent with the most
valuable medicinal vegetable substances that
Botanic research has placed at the disposal of
the chemist and the physician. These ingredl-
ents are compounded with great care, and in
such proportions as TO produce n preparation
which invigorates without exciting the general
system. 1t tones, regulates and controls the
stomach, the bowels, the liver, and the minor
secretivc organs.
What this great restorative Will do must be
gathered from what IL has done. The case of
dyspe psn or any other form of indigestion, in
which it has hcen persistently administered
without eilecting n radical cure, is yet to be
heard from, and the same may be said of bilious
disorders Intermittent fever, nervous affections,
general debility, constipation, sick headache,
mental disabilities to which the feeble are so
subject. II purnes all the fluids of the body, in-
cluding the blood. and the gentle stimulants
which IL imparts TO the nervous system is not
succeeded by the slightest reaction. This is n

| sakes, should mark and remember.
