Aching Heads and n, Ensnsy Nerves


Are often soothed by Hostetters Stomach
Bitters because that searching corrective COM
pletely removes the causes Of brain and nerve
excitement which are to be found in derange-
ment of the omach, and Of its associate or
gans, the liver and bowels. 1t is a truth which
cannot be too earnestly insisted upon, that the
effect of mere sedatives and narcotics, like
bromide of potassium, valerian, chloral n.y.
drate and opium is less appreciable the longer
they are used, and that they can never -perma-
nently relieve nervous excl ability, because they
cannot remedy the weakness or organic de-
rangemsnt which lies at its roots Hostel
ter's Bitters, however, can and does cure ner-
vous maladies, for the reason already stated.
Sick headache, restlessness at night, vertigo,
mental heaviness and depression of spirits, as
we'll as the dyspeptic condition of the stomach,
and toIpidity of the liver and bowels, which
give rise to them, are entirely obviated by this
benign Alternative tonic.

What thipk you would be the result II the
earth should stop spinning around the sun
Were you ever near q large and intricate ma
chine when one Of its wheels became elogged
or broken-near enough 10 hear the grSting,
Earring clash, the sudden, deafening crash
Astronomers assure us that precisely similar
effects, only on an inconceivably gTsnder scale
would be produced III our earth-one Of the
wheels In the universe-mAcaine shoull sud
denly cease its revolutions. In other words
there would be a general clash and crash OF
satellites, planets, and systems. What we term
financial crises are due to similar causes. One
OF the wheels in the finance machine becomes
clogged. perhaps shattered. The terrible Wall
street crash which fOllOwsis communicated
to every part Of the financial mechanism OF the
country. But analOgies do not stop here.
There is that other mechanism. the most intri-
cate Of all-sometimes called an organism be-
cause 1t generates its own fOrces-the human
machine. When one OF its members fails TO
perform its Office, the whole system is thrown
into disorder. Members before considered I'M
assailGble, break down under the unnatural
pressure. The shock comes, land utter pros
tration is the result. PREPARATION can ony be
effected by the restoration Of the impaired
parts and the reimbursement of itslevers, the
physical forces. There ia one part OF the ma
chine more liable to disorder than any other
the liver.--the great balance wheel Of the ma
chine. The liver being the great depurating
or blood cleansing organ Of the syst m, set it
at work and the foul corruptions which gen.
der in the blood, and rot out, as it were, the
machinery of life, are gradually expelled from
the system. For this purpose DR.. Pierces
Coded Medical Discovery, used daily, and DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets, taken in
very small doses are prominently the articles
needed. They cure every kind of humor from
the worst scrofula to the common pimple,
blotch or eruption. Great eating ulcers
kindly heal under their mighty curative influ-
ence. Virulent blood poisons that Turk in the
system are by them robbed Of their terrors.
and by their persevering and somewhat pro-
trscted use the most tainted systems may be
completely renovated and built up anew. En-
larged glands, tumors and swellings dwindle
away and disappear under the influence OF
these great resolvents.
