And in all parts of the world, the elements
of disease are present in the air, the soil and
the water, in greater or less degree, and
therefore the Great Vegetable Antidote to
these invisible enemies OF health, Hostel
ter's Bitters, is invaluable as a household
medicine at all seasons and in every lati-
tude. At no period of the year is a regu-
lating aud corrective medicine more needed
than toward the close Of the winter, when
the sun and rain are beginning TO break up
the winter blockade, aud from the softening
soil arises that terrible miasma, which
weighs like an incubus upon the vital ma
chinery, and depresses the animal spirits.
Ii Is then that the seeds of Intermittent and
remittent fevers, of rheumatism and rheu-
matte gour, OF obstinate stomach COM
plants, of disorders of the liver and bowels,
and a whole host of pulmonary and nervous
complaints are sown.
The best, the surest way 70 prevent this
disastrous seeding is to invigorate and re-
fresh the system with a course Of the Bit
tiers. If this precaution be taken nOto there
will be no danger of the miasmatic germs
taking root in the fluids and tissues of the
body, and bringing forth terrible fruit in
the spring Now is the time for prevention.
Remember that vigor is the only safeguard
against the virus of disease. and that Hos
letters Bitters Is the purest. the safest, the
most powerful and perfect invigorant ever
administered, either as protective medicine
or remedy. A change Of season approach
es which almost always proves more or less
disastrous TO persons of 4 weak, nervous or
Ranization. Brace up nc once with the
leading Tonic Of the age. Purge from the
blood all morbid matter, strengthen che
nerves, and regulate and purify the secre-
tions with the Vegetable Elixir, which com
blnes che juices Of the finest medicinal
roots, herba nnd harks wlth fhe nnst whole

otherwise, that the white folks have, have

Surely il Congress has the power to legiS-
late them into hotels, inns, cars steamboats,,

right to legislate themselves into the MAN

The History Of "a National REM
edy.---Here is the history of the most cell
ebrated tonic of the age in anutshell. In
1850 it was announced that certain combi
nation of vegetable ingredients, with pure
GifiuSive Stimulant, was working wonders
in the cure of chronic dyspepsia. nervous
debility, liver omplaint. periodical tevers,
rheumatism and constitutional weakness.
The unpretending name given co the spe-
cific was PLANTATION BITTERs. The state
ment attracted the attention of invalids
everywhere. The new remedy received
fair trial, and the results more than con-
firmed all that had been said in its praise.
Thenceforward it was q grand success.
The business columns of the press spread
the glorious news far and wide, and the
martyrs to indigestion, hiliousness, physi-
cal prostration and premature decay, as if
by common consent, sought relief from the
new vegetable restorative They found tchdt
they sought. From that time to the present
the Increase in the demand for Plantation
BitteTs has been one of the most striking
events in this age.

An English paper reports The case of
mother causing her boy 10 be arrested and
put in prison for attempting to commit sui-
eide by jumping out OF window. This boy
was an uudulful son, and the mother testi-
fed she had often beaten him until hs was
black and blue but it did no good, SO she
wished the authorities to take him 10 hand.
If that mother had knocked her son down
few times with an ak helve, or other sim-
liar rod Of correction, it might have made
him behave, the probabilities surely are
that he never would have been obliged to
jump from . window to end bis troubles -
