The Key Note Of Health.

The health and vigor of the several organs of the
body depend upon the simple condition that the
functions which pertain to each shall be regularly
and actively performed If vitality is sluggish or de-
cient, this condition not properly fulfilled and as
consequence disease is soon inaugurated. Prevent
it by timely use Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which rouse the vital energies when dormant and
endow the feeble frame with needful stamina. At
the same time that the Bitters infuse strength
into the SYSTEM they correct those functional regu-
larities and local weaknesses which sap the vital
power. Dyspepsia, bladder and kidney complaints,
gout rheumatism, fever and ague, biliousness con-
stpation and nervous diseases are invariably over
come by the operation of this standard Alternative
