Foreign Endorsement of the Stand
ard Tonic of America.

There seems to be no limit to the celeb
rity of IIostetter's Stomach Bitters. Every
year the demand tor il increases and the
territorial area of its popularity expands.
1t has long been the standard tonic, and an
approved remedy for epidemic disease in
the Republics of South and Central Ameri-
ca, in Brazil and the West Indies and the
British Colonies on this continent. More
recently its merits have been appreciated at
the antipodes, and it is now shipped in
large quantities to Australia and Tasmania.
The reason why it is making such extraor-
binary Roadway in remote regions as we'll
as in America, are very simple and lie in a
nutshell. 1t is a medicine suited to all
peoples, all climates, and all ordinary dis
orders and disabilities. 1t prevents and
cures malarious diseases, relieves indiges-
ton, braces the nerves, improves the a2pe-
tite, clears the brain, regulates the liver,
arrests Intermittent fever, strengthens the
! physique, and invigorates the constitution.
