steadying the Nervous System.

i
In my cases out of ten, diseases of the
nervous system arise from a Initiated
condition of the digestive and secretive
apparatus. The alimentary region be-
ing connected by the epigastrict nerve
with the brain, which is the great nerve
centre, it is not surprising that disord-
cred condition of the stomach, liver
and bowels, should produce nervous
headache, inability to sleep, vertigo,
buzzing in the ears and other symptoms,
of cerebral arrangement. The proper
and most direct way to get rid of ali
these disagreeable symptoms is to over
come digestive weakness and inactivity
of the liver The intimate connection
between the brain and the alimentrry
canal is very clearly shown by the sim
uiiaaeous disappearance of nervous and
indigestiye symptoms when the stomach
and liver are subjected to the tonic and
corrective influence of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. No nervine in the whole
range of materia medica is comparable
t. this agreeable family tonic ana alter
alive, in The matter of soothing nervous
excitement and supeIinducing a vIgor-
Gus appetite and sound repose. But
though it acts upon the nervous system
through the stomach, yet being purely
vegetable and wonderfully wholesome,
IL does not produce those unpleasant af
te- consequences which are such seri-
Gus objection to the use of mineral seda-
tives. 1t is the province of this adnlira-
bic medicine to overcome the diseases
and disabilities, % the removal of which
it is adapted by the most natural and
action, without disturbing
the equilibrium OF a single organ, or pro-
Gucing any undesirable result 60 mar is
