SPECIAL NOTICES.

WHAT SPRING BRINGS WITH 1T.
Regarded from medical standpoint, Spring IS
not the delectable season described by Vernal
poets. On the contrary, its yield OF intermittent
fevers, bilious attacks rheumatic pains, dlsoEders
of the stomach, nervous complaints and pulmo-.
nary diseases, is almost as large as It's crop OF
vioets, snow drops and cherry blossoms. Inc
invisible seeds of innumcrable maadles rise
with the morning mists, and are scattered broad
cast by the vapors Of night Who can resist
their mephitic inhuence2 Certainly not the
weak by nature or those whose nervous ener-
ges have been overtasked by mental or physl-
cal labor unless they tone and invigorate their
systems, and thus enable them to cope with the
unhealthy influences by which they are sur
rounded.
The only medicinal agent by which this OBJECT
can be rapidly and safely accomp lished, Is the
great vegetable renovant and lnylgorant hos
letters Stomach Bitters The operation OF this
celebrated specific is four-fold. It strengthens
the digestive organs regulates the secretlols,
improves the condition of the blood, superln-
duces regular habit of body, and thereby i'm
parts such vgor and elasticity to the whole
physical structure as to render it capable OF re-
sisting the action of the poisonous mlasma, with
which the spring atmosphere is always to some
extent impregnated. Here, then, is q ready and
certain means of escaping the disorders preVa
lent at this season, or (if they have already faS-
tened upon the system) of conquering them
speedily and thoroughly. The flavor Of Il medi-
cine is not of much consequence, provided II
does it work properly but OF Hostetter's Btters
it may be fairly said, that they elect cure
without ou!raging the patients Sense Of taste.
