The Season Of Intermittents {.

All the miasmatic complaints in other words
al disorders generated by unwhoesome ex-
halations from the earth or water, are prevalent
1t this season In every section subject to the
visitation of fever and ague or other forms of
intermittent disease, the causes which produce
these maades are actively at work. This,
therefore, is period of the year when the in
habitants OF such districts should prepare their
-ystems to meet the unwholesome conditions of
the atmosphere, by course of tonic and alter
atve treatment. Foremost among tha invigor-
ants. recommended by time and experience, as
a means of fortifying the system against all en-
demic and epidemic malades, stands Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters Whoever have travelled in the
West or South knows full well the esteem in
which this incompatible preventive and restora-
tive is held throughout those regions. 1t is
literally domestic staple in the swampy and
mephitic localities which lie on the borders of
many of our large rivers, and in the neighbor-
hood of our southern bayous and lagoons. Now
is the time when the Inhabitants of all malarious
districts should put their systems and constitu'
tons in good defensive trim, by course of this
powerful vegetable antidote. By this means the
feebest resident of an unhealthy soil may escape
the sickness, which, without the aid of this po-
tent ally of nature. will be apt to overtahe the
strongest Chlls and fever, bilious remttents,
constipation rhe' matsm. dyspepsia and many
other complaints are frequently brought on by
the caprices of temperature and alterations OF
dry cold and excessive moisture common in oui
climate at the commencement of Spring. Let
