DEBILITY AND EVACUATION both result from
the lack of ability to convert the food into nu-
triment. How necessary, then. for those suffer-
ing from these alarming symptoms TO immedi-
ately resort to remedy that will strengthen
the stomach and digestive organs. For, as soon
as tins desirable object has been accomplished
the health improves, and the patient resumes
his usual personal appearance. Hostetter's
stomach Bitters have attained n worldwide pop
ularlty in such cases. and have been proven the
best and safest means of removing constipa-
tion, toning the stomach. giving energy to the
liver, and relieving every symptom of nervous
ness and depression of spirits. Its cheering and
beneficial effects are highly spoken of by thou
sands who owe TO 1t their restoration to health.
No restorative in the annals of medicine has at.
tanned the same popularity In the short space of
time it has been before the public, or has won
the high endorsements accorded to this excel
lent tonic. Many other preparations, purport-
ing to be correctives and restoratives, have been
introduced, and have perished one by one, while
the popularity OF Hostetters Stomach Bltters
continues 10 inqroago, and Is now recognized as
q standard household medicine. The success
which attends the use of the Biters eylnces at
once Its virtues in ali cases of debility and dis
ease OF the stomach. Certificates, almost with
out number, have been published attesting its
truly miraculous power In removing those
painful and fearful Diseases And at this time II
seem s Idle to do more than call attention To the
great remedy Of the age, IN order to awaken pub
lie attention to itg excellence. 1t Is the only
preparation of the kind that is reliable in all
cases, aud 1t is therefore worthy Of tho eonsid-

10 THE THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF coll
UMBIA COUNTY.
FELLOW CITIZENS: Being requested by num-
ber of my friends and acquaintances throu ghout
the county, to an nounce myself as a candidate
for the Office of County Commissioner, would
therefore, sny, that Will accept the nomi nation
by the Democratic County Convention, provl-
ding they honor me with their support. And
would further say, should be elected will full
MI my duty honestly and with the best of my
ability and impartialy. am fully aware there
Is prejudice existing amongst number OF citi-
zens throughout the county agal nst q man from
the town OF Bloomsburg, but they do not con-
slider the matter in my estimation as they should.
As we have not had n commissioner from our
township for number of years, and as our dis
trct is entitled to the cand ldate, think IL no
more than justice we should have one. And
also think that we are entitled to more officers
In our township than they are in others, as we
have by far more voters and pay great deal
more taxes than any other township in the
county. 1 am decidedly opposed to canvassng
the county for electinoering purposes. | think
that every voter knows how TO vote without be-
ing lectured by every candidate in the Held.
There has great deal too much of IL been done
in the past, and hope 1t Will be abandoned In
the future. And in conclusion, would say to
my fellow-voters that they must not expect To
see me on an electloneering tour throughout the
county. but, at the same time, notforgetting that
| am u candidate when you come to cast yolr
vote. Respectfully
Your Obedient Servant,
