Discipline the liver.

The liver is truly an 'unruly member Some
times it is torpis and secretes too slowly. At
other times !, is unnaturally active and sends
forth perfect freshet of bile. Regulate this
organ with Hostettets Bitters, not with cal mel
or blue mass. Mineral excitants in stimulating
the liver, poison the hood, and their ultimate
effect is terrible. The Bitters, on the other hand
have vitalizing aud purf ing, as well as a slim
ulating effect They not only regulate the flow
of bile, but infuse new life into the whole system.
good appetite and perfect digestion, a regular,
natural habit of b dy, a sound condition Of the
nervous system yiyacity Of spirits, increased
bodily strength and power of endurance and re-
freshng sleep are among the blessings they pro-
mote The temperature OF summer is a severe
tax upon the digestive and secretive organs, and
the Bitters are neyet more Indispensable than at
this period of the year.
