ALesson Taught by Experience.

Among the many valuable lessons
taught by experience, there is not one OF
greater moment 10 the invalid portion OF
the community than the following, VIZ:
That Alternative treatment is only perma-
nently successful when aided by invigora-
ton. When the functions OF the body are
diSordered, the use OF a general tonic with
which corrective properties are combined
is The speediest means OF regulating them.
such a tonic is Hostetter's stomach Bit
tiers, the most popular, rs it is the best
article OF its GLASS. For more than twenty
five years il he's been used with signal
success as remedy for. and preventive OF
malarial fevers, rs a means OF imparting
strength To the debllitated, and rs a cura-
tive of dyspepsia, billiousness, constipa-
ton. kidney troubles and uterine weak
ness. Not only have multitudes OF those
whom il has cured borne testimony in its
behalf, but it has been repeatedly COM
mended by the medical profession and
the press

MORAL NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. people
speaking in moral view havn'. even
soul enough to cry; but they can fret
and whine enough to make up for 1t,
AS to wishing the smallest amount OF
happiness to any fellow creature, it is out
of the. question. They never have
generous impulse, and are never
glad. They cant hope, for their
hearts are too small for that.
They seem to have come into
the world during one Of those cold bleak
gloomy days, when there was no wood to
make a fire, when the cows were all dry,
and when there was nothing to make tea
from but dogwood berries and crab apples.
They grow up in this same cold, bleak at
mosphere, and live in it all their lives.
You see their smallness in every
thing they do or say. You see
it in their buying and in their sell.
ing, in their talk and in their ac.
tions. They are the frogs that constitute
one of the plaques of society. They are
certainly very muck to be pitied. They
can't look back and see a single green
spot in their lives. They have not made
one heart glad, or shed one ray of sun
shine upon man, woman or child. Thus
they are born, live and die, and as soon
as the grave closes over them, they are
forgotten.
