There Is Trouble in Store

For those who neglect to rectify irregula ri
ties Of the stomach, liver and bowels. which
they foolishly Imagine will come right of
themselves" OF this silly error such per-
sons are usually disabused by the develop
meut of some serious chronic malady,
traceable to what they were pleased to con-
slider trifing disorder of the above named
associate organs. Such a elimination is
easily avoided. A course of Hostetter' 8
Stomach Bitters invariably has the effect
Of renewing the seeretive action OF a tor
pid liver, restoring healthy dlsgestlon aud
assimilation, and rendering the habit of
body perfectly regular. The activity of
these all important functions being restor-
ed, land the entire system toned and regulai
ed by this incompatible corrective and
invigorant, no danger to the general health
is to be appreheuded from causes which,
if not eradicated in time, will assuredly
undermine it.
