Overtasking the Energieg.

1t is not advisable for any of us to over
task our energies, corporal or mental, but
in the eager pursuit of wealth or fame or
knowledge, how many transgress this sal
utarY rule 1t must be matter of great
Importance to all who do so to know how
;hey can regain the rigor so recklessly ex-
pended. The remedy is neither costly or
difficult to obtain. Hostetter's Stomach
:3itters is procurable in every city, town
and settlement in America, and it COM
pensates for drain of bodily or mental
energy more effectually than any invigor-
ant ever prescribed or advertised. Labor
ing men, athletes, students, journalists,
lawyers, clergymen, physicians, all hear
testimony to its wondrously renovating
powers. 1t increases the capabilities Tor
undergoing fatigue, and counteracts the
injurious effects upon the system of expo
sure, sedentary habits, unhealthy or wea-
rying avocations, or an insalubrious eli
mate, and is a prime Alternative, diuretic
and blood depurent.
