ONE MILLION OF LIVES SAVED

IL iS one OF the remarkable facts OF this re-
markablc age, not merely that so many perrons
arc the victims of dyspepsia or indigestion, but
its willing victims. Now, we would not be un-
derstood to say that any one regards dyspepsia
with favor, or feels disposed to rank 1t among
the luXuries of life. Far from 1t. Those who
have eXpcrinccd its torments would scout such
an idea. All dread 1t, aud would gladly dispense
with its unpleasant fhmiliarties. Mark Taplcy,
who was jolly under all the trying circumstances
in which he was placed, never had an attack of
dyspepsia, or his iollity would have speedily for
saken him. Men and women sometimes suffer
its torturcs uncomplnnngly, but whoever heard
of person who enjoyed theml
Ofall the multfarious 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, 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 n
wretched being in the world IL is
4 CONFIRMED DYSPEpTfC.
Nearly every other person you meet is vic
tim, an apparently willing one; for were this
not the case, why many sufferers, when II ccr-
tain, speedy and safe remedy is within the easy
reach of all who desire to avail themselves of it
But the iorty will not. Blinded by prejudice,
or deferred by some other unexplained influence,
they refuse to accept the relief proficred them.
They turn deaf car to the testimony of the
thousands whose suhcrngs have been aleviated,
and with strange infatuatiun. appear to cling
with desperate determination to their ruthless
tormcntcr. But says dyspeptic: What is this
remedy ? to which we reply: This great allevia-
tor of human suffering is almost as widely
known rs the English language. 1t has alayed
the agOnics OF thousands, and Is to-day carrying
comfort and encouragement to thousands of
Others. This acknowledged panucca is none
other than
Dr.. IIOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTERS.
Would you know more of the merits of this
wonderful medicine than can be learned from the
experience of Others 7 Try it yourself, and when
it has failed to fulfil the assurance of its efficacy
given by the proprietor, then abandon faith in
it.
LET IT BE REMEMBERED,
first of all, that HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BIT
TIERS is not Il rum beverage.
They arc no alcoholic in any sense of the term.
They arc composed wholly OF the pure juice or
vital principal of roots. This is not a mere as
sGrtiOn. The extracts from which they are COM
pounded are prepared by ono of the ablcst of
German chemists. Unlike any other Bittcrs in
the market, they arc wholly free from spirituouS
Ingredients. The objections which hold with so
much force against preparations of this class,
namely-th0t n desire for Intoxicating drinks is
stimulated by their use, are not valid in the case
of the German Bittcrs So far from encouraging
or inculcating a taste or desire for incbIatiug
beverages, 1t may be conidcntially asserted that
their tendency Is in diamCtrically opposite di-
rocton Their effects can be BENEFICIAL
ONLY in all cases of the hillary system. lloof-
landsGcrman Bitters stand without an equal,
acting promptly and vigorously upon the Liver;
they remove its torpdty and cause healthfUi Sc
erection of be--thCrUby supplying the stomach
with the most Indispensable elements of sound
digestion in proper proportions. They give tone
to the stomaCi-stimuating its functions, and
enabling it to perform its duties as nature de-
signed it should do. They impart VrOr and
strength to the entire SYSTEM causing the patient
to feel like another being-n fact, giving him
new lease of life
THEY PURIFY THE BLOOD, cleansing the
vital fluid of all hurtful Impurities and surplaut-
ing them with the elements of genuine hcalthful-
ness. In word, there is scarcely disease in
which they cannot be safely AMI benctiiciHlly en-
ployed bat in that most generally prevalent dis
trcssing and dreaded disease. Dyspepsia, THEY
STAND UNRINALED.
Now, there are certain classes OF persons to
whom extreme Bitters are not only unpalatablc,
but who find it impossible to take them without
positive discomfort. For such
DIR. HOOFLAND'S GERMAN TONIC
has been specially prepared. 1t is intended for
use where slight alcoholic stimuant is required
in connection with the wcll-known Tonic pro-
pcrtics of the pure German Bittcrs. This Tonic
contains all the ingredients of the Btters, but
HaNOlcl as to remove the extreme bitterness.
This preparation is not only palatabc, out COM
bincS, in modified form, all the virtues OF the
German Btcrs. The solid extracts of some of
Natures choicest rcstoratiVcs are held in sou-
tIoh ny spIriLuOun agent OF thc purcst qHaiNy.
In cases OF languor or excessive debility, where
the system appears to have become exhausted of
its energies, HOOFLAND'S TONIC acts with
almost marvellous effect. 1t not only stimulates
the hagEing and wasting energies, but inyigor-
ates and permanently strengthens its actions up
on the Liver and Stomach thorough, perhaps less
prompt than the Bittcrs, when the same quanti-
ty Is taken is none the less certain. Indigestion,
Billiousncss, Physical or Nervous PrOstration,
yield readily to lis potent influence. 1t gives the
invalid II new and stronger hold upon life re-
moves depression of spirits, ard inspires cheer
iuncss. 1t supplants the pain Of disease with
the ease and co mfort of perfect heath. 1t gives
strength to weakness, throws dependency to
the winds, and starts the restored invalid upon
Il new and gladstone career But DR.. IIOoland's
benctactions to the human race are not confined
to his celebrated GERMAN BlTTERS, or his
invaluable Tonic. lie has prepared another
medicine, which is rapidly winning its way to
popular favor because of its intrinsic merits.-
