The Chill Blast

That sets the naked branches a quvering, is
not felt by the wealthy valetudinarian in
doors, but not all the covering hat can be
piled on his warm bed, nor all the furnace
heat that anthracite can furnish, will warm
his marrow when chills and fever runs its icy
fingers along his spinal column. Hostetters
Stomach Bitters is the thing to infuse new
warmth into his chilled and aguish Frame to
remedy the fierce fever and exhausting
sweats which alternate with the chill. Dumb
ague, ague cake, bilious remittent-in short,
every known form of malarial disease is sub
jugated by this potent, and at the same time,
wholesome and genial medicine. Biliousness,
constipation, dyspepsia sick headaches, loss
tism and debility are also remedied by il.
