On steamboats,, cars and stage-coaches,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is carried as the
most important item in the materia medica
of the travelling public. 1t deprives Initiated,
brackish waters of its hurtful properties and
eXecrable flavor, c0unteracts the perniciOus
effects upon the stomach of bad or indgest-
ible food, remedies cramps, heartburn and
wind upon the stomach. 1t is fine defense
against malarial disordery, utilities the
effect of excessive heat, cold and damp, re-
lieves sick headache, and is an Incompatible
cure for cOstiveness and billiousness. The
fatigue of travel often tells most disastrously
upon invalids and convalescents, OCCASION
ally to such an extent as to jeopardize life.
Persons in feeble health, apprehensive of
bad effects from travel, will, if provided
with the Bitters, be far less likely to have
their fears realized.
