The stepping Stone to Health.

The acquisition Of vital energy is the stepping
stone to health. When the system lacks vitality
The various organs flag in their duty, become
chrosically irregular, and disease is eventually
instituted 70 prevent this unhappy state of
things, the debilitated system should be built up
by the use of that inimitabe tonic, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters which invigoIates the digestive
organs, and insures the thorough conversion Of
food into blood Of nourishing quality, from
whence every muscle, nerve and fiber acquire IN
wonted supplies Of vigor, and the whole system
experiences the Beneficial effect. Appetite re-
turns, the system is refreshed by heathful slum-
Der, the nerves grow strong and calm, the des-
pondency begotten Of chronic indigestion and an
uncertain state Of health disappears, and that sal
low appearance Of the skin peculiar to habitual
inyalids, and persons deficient in vital energy, is
replaced by more becoming tiuge.
