The Antecedents OF Disease.

Among the antecedents of disease
are inertness in tho circulation of the
blood, an unnaturally attenuated cons
dition\ OF the physique, indicating that
the life current is deficient in nutri-
tive properties, q wan, haggard look,
inability to digest the food, loss of aps
petitee, sleep and strength, and sen.
sation Of unnatural langour. All these
may be regarded as among the indi-
cia of approaching disease, which
will evidently attack the system and
overwhoIm it, if it is not built up ard
fortified in advance. Invigorate, then
without loss Of timo, making choice Of
the greatest vitalizing agent cxtant,
Ho~tetLer's Stomach Bitters, an elixir
which has given health and visor to
myriads of the sick and debilitatcd,
which is avouched by physicians and
analysis to be pure as we'll as effective,
which is immensely popular in this
country, and extensively used abroad
and which has been for years past ono
OF the leading medical staples of
America.
