ANXIOUS NIGHTs.

With the setting of the sun there comes
a period of extreme anxiety to q class of
people numerous, and helpless against this
feeling of solicitude. We refer to the vic
tins of pulmonary consumption. No symp-
tom of consumption is more distressing or
calculated to raise greater alarm than that
of night sweats. They rob the sufferer of
healthful repose and and leave him ex-
hausted, depressed in spirits and without
strength or courage to resist the encroach-
ments of disease. In such cases ordinary
drugs, instead of affording relief, frequent
ly serve but to increase the distaste for
food, and make it still more difficult for
the system to obtain a sufficient amount of
nourishment. No such objection, however,
can be urged against Liebig Malt Extract.
1t does not pail upon the appetite to offend
the stomach, but on the contrary. creates
an actual craving for food at the same time
that it stimulates the digestive organs to
perform their functions regularly, and so
enables nature to repair the loss of nervous
and physical energy resulting from disease.
Indeed, its action is whally restorative in
its character, and consumptives will find it
the most invigorating of all tonics and re-
storatives.
