Disarming an Unseen Foe.

This was sometime a paradox" as
Hamlet says. Since, however. the people
of America and other lands have been en-
abled to pit Hosteter's Stomach Bitters
against that unseen foe, malaria, it is no
longer a paradox, but an easy possibility.
Wherever malaria evolves its misty venom
to poison the air. and decaying unwhole-
some vegetation impregnates the water,
there, in the very stronghold Of miasma,
is the auxiliary potent to disarm the foe
and assure efficient protection. Fever and
ague, bilious remittent dumb ague and ague
cake, no matter how tenaciously they have
fastened their clutch on the system, are
first forced to relax their grasp and even
tually to abandon it altogether. But it is
its preventive force that should chiefly
recommend the Bitters to persons dwell
ing in malaria cursed localities for it is a
certain buckler of defence against which
the enemy is powerless. Cures. likewise,
dyspepsia, rheumatism, kidney and bill
