The First Law of Nature.

This self-preservation is acknowledged to be, and people who adopt against the encroaches of disease a genuine medici- nal safeguard, accredited by experience and the sanction of physicians, afford a happy illustration of the wisdom of the saying, in the health they restore and continue to enjoy. Among maladies, against the growth of which Hostetter's s Stomach Bitters affords efficient protec- tion, diseases of the kidneys and blad- der are fraught with the utmost peril and exhibit great obstinacy when op- posed by ordinary means. The Bitters can and will subdue them. No testimony is stronger than this. Used at the out set and consistently, the best results may be expected. This medicine also eradicates liver complaint, constipation, dyspepsia, malaria, rheumatism and ner- vousness.
