Brace the Nerves.

Sedatiyes and opiates won't do it. These nervines do not make the nerves strong, and failing to do this fall short of producing the essential of their quiet udeEvigor. And while in extreme cases and these only-of nervous irritation such drugs may be advisable, their fre- quent use IS highly prejudicial to the delicate organism upon which they act, and in order to renew their quieting ef- feet increased and dangerous doses even- tually became necessary. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is an efficient substi- tute for such pernicious drugs It quiets the nerves by bracing, strengthening, toning them. The connection between weakness of the nervous system and that of the organs of digestion is a strong and sympathetic link. The Bitters, by imparting healthful impulse to the di- gestive and assimilating functions, pro- notes throughout the whole system a vigor in which the nerves come in for a large share. Use the Bitters in malaria, constipation, bilious and kidney trou- bles.
