TO CURE o NOT TO CURE.-Tbat is
L the question, and the only question which
affects in the slightest degree the interests of
such persons as are afflicted with dyspepsia,
disordered bowels, loss of appetite, nervous
headache, constipation. and such other dis
eases as have their oragin in improper diges-
ton. We admit that sufferers had better bear
their ills than resort to remedies that they
know not; out when they have the assurance
of their friends and neighbors that BAKERS
BITTERS are an unfailing remedy for these
complaints; LnaI tney purify the blood,
strengthen the nervous system, quicken the
liver. enliven the mind and expel all improper
secretions. it is a little strange that all who
suffer do not. seek relief by The use of them.
These BITTERS have now borne the test of
time. and from their curative powers have be-
come an established family medicine in this
section of the country. Their properties are
purely vegetable. may be taken by all classes
without fear of injury, and will prove an un-
falling tonic in all cases of loss of appetite
