the Mohawk was piece Of carclsssncss on the par
of her sailing MASTER and one of them expressed
this opinion very emphaticaly, saying, There amt

management, aud that had the ordinary precautions
been observed. or prompt action taken, the yacht

since then, owing to better accounts Of the

If the Enemy of mankind was permitted
to exert his oliabolical ingenuity in the
invention of new disease, he could
scarcely devise one more worthy OF his
genius than dyspepsia. The dySpeptic
sufferer is tormented by symptoms re-
sembling those of almost every known
malady,, and Is often worried into mono-
mania by these conflicting and perpleX-
ing manifestations. \ favOrite though
absurd Authorization of the victim Of
chronic indigestion is that he or she has
heart disease. Dyspepsia has often been
pronounced incurable, but experience
has shown that HoSte!ter's stomach Bit
tiers will vanquish it, together with the
constipation and bilious arrangement
which usually accompany it. Diseases
of the Kidneys aud supposed rheumatic
pains are also frequent concomitants OF
dyspepsia, but they, too, succumb to the
above named invaluable corrective.
