SPECIAL NOTICES.

What the Weak Need Why do the de.
bilitated and feeble dread the summer Ii Il
because heat is an exhausting element. and
they are not in a condition TO bear the new
drain upon their languid systems, which they
think must necessarily commence with the
warm weather. But cannot this evil be obyi-
ated? Most individually it can. What these
weaklings need-in fact, what nine-tenths Of
us need at this season-is an accession Of physi-
cal vigor. and this deslderatum can be secured,
with absolute certainty. by course of the
mightiest, yet mildest, Of all vegetable tonics,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Thousands of
men of business, mechanics and professional
men, break down. partially or wholly. under
their summer labors. simply because they
have neglected to reinforce the powers of ma
ture in this way. To persons who use the cele.
brated invigorant and corrective regularly in
hot weather, the exhaustion which excessive
heat is apt to produce under other circum-
stances is unknown. They are not troubled
with nausea, their appetites are good, their
digestion excellent. and their habit of body all
that can be desired. This for twenty years has
been the uniform testimony of all who have
taken the Bitters as a summer tonic and altera-
tive. It's efficacy is due to the care and scru-
pulous fidelity to the teachings Of experiment
tai science. with which its medicinal ingredi-
ents have been eulled from the vegetable king
dem, the admirable proportions in which they
are combined and the unequalled purity of its
stimulative basis.
