Is the individual who persiCtensty meglects his
health and tha Tnoans OF preserving and restor-
ing it. Many persons who are not constitu-
tional idiots do this. They are genuine objects
of compassion rs well as censure. A failure of
appetite, loss of sleep and flesh, impaired digqs-
ton, an uncertain state of tho bowels and
symptoms of bilioUsnvss are so many warnings
of the approach of disease. To disregard them
is absolute folly, which offended nature in due
time Furnishes severely, if not fatally. That
genial and thoroughly reliable preventive of
bodily mischief in the shape of chronic disease,
HOstetter's Stomach BitterS, will, If rcsorted TO
in time, avert those disorders, to the removal
of which it is also fully adequate. Among these
are chronic Indigestion, liver complaint, kidney
troubles, constipation, nervousness, rheuma-
tism and malaria.
