The Stepping Stone to Health.

The acquisition of vital energy is the
stepping stone to health. When the sys-
tenn lacks vitality, the various organs flag
in the duty, becomes chronically irregular,
and disease is eventually instituted. To
prevent this unhappy state of things, the
debilitated system should be built up by
the use of that inimitable tonic, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters which inyigorate the d.
gestive organs, and insnres the thorough
conversion of food into blood of nourish-
ing quality, from whence every muscle,
nerve and fiber acquire nnwonted supplies
of yigor, and the whole system experiences
the beneficial effect. Appetite returns, the
system is refreshed by healthful slumber,
the nerves grow strong and calm, the de.
spondency begotten OF chronic indigestion
and an uncertain state Of health disappears,
and that sallcw appearance of the skin Pc.
culiar to habitual invalids, and persons
deficient in vital energy, is replaced by q
more becoming tinge. 47-4-w.
