There are hosts ofmen and women who, to
coin n phrase. are only half alive. That is to
say, they have seldom if ever any appetite,
are nervous, weak, hdgetty and troubled by
numberlcss small pains and aches. In the
presence Of vigorous, cNubcrant vitality they
seem mere pigmics. such persons are usually
fond of frequently dosing themselves, swai-
lowing IN the course ofthe year enough drugs
TO stock any apothccary's shop ofayerage di-
mansions. This, Of course, defeats instead Of
ofhealth and vigor. Were they to seek it from
AN uniailing source Of vitality, Hostetter's
stomach BItters, how different would be their
case, Then Nl&or would return TO their debili-
tHted frames, the glow of health TO their wan
checks, their trembling uncertain gait would
grow firm and elastic, appetite, that grandest
Of all sauces, would give a relish for he daily
food, we're II ever 10 coarse, and refreshing
sleep would crown the tasks Of the day.
