The RLESsIMG OE STRONG NERVES

Is recoverable, not by the use of mineral
sedatives, but by a recourse to effectaul
tonic treatment. Opiates and the like
should only be used as auxlliaries, and
then as sparingly as possible. Vigorous
nerves are quiet ones, and the most direct
way to render them so is to reinforce the
vital energies That sterling invigOrant,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, will be found
allsufiicient for this purpose, since it en-
tirely removes impediments to thorough
digestion and assimilation of the food, so
that the body is insured It's due amount Of
nOurishment, and consequently of stamina.
Rheumatic tendencies and affections Of the
kidneys and bladder are also counteracted
by the Bitters, which is besides pleasant
medicinal stimulant, infinitely purer than
the raw eXcitants of commerce, which re-
act injuriOusly upon the nervous system.
