Clear the Way

For the escape from the system of its
waste and debris, which. if retained, would
vitiate the bodily fluids and overthrow
health. That important channel of exit,
the bowels, may be kept permanently free
from distractions by using the non grip
irg, gentle acting and agreeable cathartic,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitter's. which not
only liberates impurities, but invigorates
the lining Of the intestinal canal when
weakened by constipation or the uuwise use
of violent pargatives. The stomach. liver
and urinary organs are likewise reinforced
and aroused to healthful action by this be-
ne6cent tonic and corrective, and every
organ, fiber, muscle and nerve experiences
a share of its inrigorating influence. Un-
Objectionable in flavor, most genial and
wholesome medicinal stimulant, and ow-
ing its efficacy to botanic sources exclu.
sively, it is the remedy best adapted to
household use on account of its safety,
wide scope and speedy action.
