Fever and agne. and its congener, bilious
renittent, besides affections of the stoln-
ach. liver and bowels, produced by miasma
TIC ar and water, are both eradicated and
prevented by tine use OF Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bltters. a purely vegetable elixir, in
dorsed by physicians. and more extensively
used as a remedy for the above class OF dis
orders, as, well as for many others, than
any medicine Of the age. A lauguid circu-
Lattice. n torpid state OF the liver, a want Of
vital stamina, are conditions peculiarly IA
%voralie to malarial diseases. They are,
however surely ren'edied by the great Pre-
v%entiVe, which, by invigorafing the system
and endowing it with regularity rs well as
vlSor. provides it with IA resistant power
which enables it to withstand disorders

Geo. W. Mitchell is building him a new barn. John D. Seeley, Esq, is the builder.
