Instead of aiding her in her efforts to recuperate is
obviously not the way to get well when one is sick.
Yet this is precisely the course pursued-of course
unWittingly-by persons who are continually
dosing themselves with powerful mineral drugs for
some maady with which they are afflicted. Such
baneful indictments rather tend to retard
recovery than to hasten it, How much more sensi-
BILE are those who employ the gently acting but thor
oughly efficient restorative, Hostetter's Stomach

health and vigor in the broken down system. Indi-
