Nature Demands n Tonic

Y hen the nerves are unstrung, the head aches,
the appetite is poor or variable, the sleep dis
turbed, and general depreciation of vital power
is experienced. Such state of things cannot
long exist without the development of serious dis
ease. The most active and genial invigorant
known is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The abso-
lutte purity of its spirituous basis and botanic in
gradients gives it a permanent claim to public
confidence, and its surprising medicinal value is
admitted by medical men of distinction, by whom
it is widely used in private practice. For fever
and ague-both preventive and remedy
dyspepsia, liver complaint, bilious remittent fever,
constipation, choleraic complaints, atulence, and
all intestinal disorders it is thoroughly reliable
remedy. 1t is the anti febrile specific par excel
lenee of the maarial districts of this and other
countries, where diseases born of miasma prevail,
and as general household remedy it is also uni
versallY esteemed.

vailing to an alarming extent, provokes
the Chicago Times to say: ain fact,
about the best thing q man IN moder-
ate circumstances can do for his faml-
ly now is to get himself shot or lmprls-
oned. Atthe present rate of progress
it will not be long before the failure OF
a husband to violate the laws, or to
get into a difficulty with man with a
gun, will be regarded by the courts as
a failure to provide properly for his
family, and as a reasonable cause for
divorce"

WHEN Wilkes Booth was killed, the
picture of beautiful lady, daughter of
Congressman Hale, was found on his
person. The incident is brought to
mind, at this time, by the fact that the
original of the picture is now the wife
of the new secretary of the treasury,
Mr.. Chandler. Washington etiquette
requires that, on state occasions, the
secretary OF war must be the escort OF
the wife of tie secretary of the navy;
so that, in this case, Secretary Lincoln
will become the escort of the ene-time
sweet heart of his fathers assassin.
