For some medicinal alcoholic resuscitant OF physf
cal energy which should take the place OF the headJ
and frequently adultefated stimulanls Of commerce
the medical practitioners Of quarter OF century
ago were eectilhed first observing the revivin2
effects upon the system of tonic then recently H.
troduced, but which has since become the most POP
ular medicine sold on this continent viz: HostettePs
Stomach Bitters. Their astonishment and admira
ton were increased when experience farther dis
closed that this botanic remedy effected results when
the mineral drugs Of the pharmacopdia often Ut
terly failed to produce among others, the pernd-
nent restoration of vgor, the removal OF digestive
secretiye and evacuatIve Irregularities and adj
cation and prevention OF periodic fsyers. Spee1y
recognition Of the merits OF the BteTs by unpTelu-
diced and enlightened physicians naturally followed
this revelation al medical facts which have since re-
ceived such frequent and positive confirmation.

bidding, especially for September, about 596
points gam was made. This very soon sub

quite slack followed by some pressure and a
reaction which carried values back to about
