A Result of obstructed Digestion.

Among the hurtful consequences of
of obstructed digestion, is the impoverish-
ment of the blood, aud since deteriative
condition of the vital fluid not only pro-
duces dangerous organic weakness, but,
according to the best medical authorities,
sometimes causes asphyxia, it is appar
ent that to improve the quality of the
blood by promoting digestion and assimila-
ton, is q wise precaution. Hostetter' S
Stomach Bitters is presciely the remedy
for this purpose, since it stimulates
the gastric juices, conquers those bilious
and evacauative irregularities which inter.
fere with the digestive processes, promote
assimilation of the food by the blood, and
purifes as we'll as enricheS it, The signs
of Improvement in health in consequence
OF using the Bitters are speedily apparent
in an accession of vigor a gain Ia bodily
substance, and regular and active per.

II Is gratifying to the proprietor of these medi-
cines to be able to state that it is nearly 30
years since they were first introduced during
which time they have been extensively used in
various parts of the United States, and have given
TO patient and practitioner the highest degree of
satisfaction In the various cases in which they
have been employed: whether In town or country,
hospital, or private practice, they have invariably
given the most decided and unequivocal satisfac-
ton, and produced the most salutary and beneficial
effects Numerous letters have been received from
some Of the most distinguished Physicians in the
country, and from the Professors of several Med
ical Colleges, all recommending in the highest
terms the value OF these medicines, and their
periority over other preparations for such COM
plants as the proprietor recommends.
These medicines require considerable care in
the preparation, and the employment Of different
menstrual In successive operations to take up the
extractive matters, and in consequence most
frequently improperly made, and not unfrequently
much impaired, II not rendered totally inert by
injudicious and unskiliul management OF those
unacquainted with pharmaceutical preparations.
Numerous preparations of Sarsqparilla and of
Buchu, and various modes Of preparing them
have been given, all OF which, OF course, will differ
according to the mode of preparation which each
individual may adopt. 1t is therefore, OF thC
highest consideration and Importance TO the pub
lie and to the faculty that there should be STANDARD
preparations of uniform strength, and possessin!
the most advantage. To effect this, and obviat
the Inconvenience alluded TO, have made
number Of experiments to ascertain the mos
effectual means Of extracting the virtues of Sar
saparlla and the Buchu, and to discover the mos
eligible form for their exhibition. The expert
ments have resulted most favorably, and it is will
much pleasure now offer to the public and thu
faculty my Compound Fluid Extracts, which
contain all the virtues of the medicines and ar
the most active preparations Of either which can
made.
Two tablespoonful of the Extract of Zarsapa
rla, added to pint OF water is equal to the Lis
bon Diet Drink, and one bottle Is fully equal 10
gallon Of the Syrup OF Sarsaparila, or the Decoc
