People suffer a great deal of pain un-
necessarily. Among fortunes that need not
be endured are those inflicted by the Theu-
matism and govt, since the acrid elements
in the blood which produces them by cor
tract with the sensitive covering of the
muscles and joints may be eliminated by
the use of that matchless depurent, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, before the intlamma-
tory symptoms are developed to any great
extent When it is considered what eN-
cruciating tortures rheumatism intiicts,
and what u tendency it has, when fully de-
veIoped, to attack the heart, the advisabibty
of an early use of such reliable antidote
becomes ~ one apparent. The rheumatic
virus is expelled from the blood by the in
creased action of the kidneys-w which act as
strainers-produced by the Bitters, and the
sufferer will find, it he uses this supreme
defensive agent that he will be protected
against a return of the agonizing COM
plant. Dyspepsia, fever and ague' liver
and bowel mplaints and other maladies,
are also cured by this admirable remedy,
