Regular Secretions Essential to
Health.

The regular secretion and low OF the gastric
Juices, and OF the bile which the use of Hostel
ter's St,maCh Bltters promotes, are effects
which cOnduce materially to the restoration
Of health, when the system is dlsordercd.
Food is not dlgested in the dyspeptic stomach
because the gastric fluld Is deficient, super
abundant or vltlated the liver becomes con-
gestcd and the bowels constipatcd because the
supply Of bile is inadequate or instructed.
The Bitters rcCtl1cs all this, and removes
every Ill conse luencc OF ro~n.assinilaticn and
bilious irregularlty. Furthermore f. stlmu-
lates the action Of the Kidneys, by which i'm
puritles are, so to speak, stralnad from the
blood, and any tendency In the urinary organs
to grow sluggish and dlsorderei, couuteracted.
Whether 1t be used as a means OF regulating
gastric or bilious secretion, and relieving the
overloaded bowels, or TO promote complete,
and therefore hcalthfIl urlna'ion, HOctetttr'5
Blttcrs may be rel led upon vith confidence to
accomplish the end IN view.
