Aboard ship.

Sea voyages are usually deemed promo
tive of health So they are in most cases.
But it may well be doubted if the shaking
up aboard ship. which people of very frag-
lie constitution and weak nerves get. is not
prejudicial If its effects are not averted or
nullitied by a medicinal safeguard. The
best, if We are to believe the testimony Of
ocean travellers, whether they 60 abroad for
health, pleasure or business, is HOstetter' s
Stomach Bitters. Invalids, commercial
trs vsIers. sea captains and yatchmen con-
cur in recommending this fine defensive
tonic. So do emigrants 10 the frontier,
the inhabitants Of malarious regions, and
all who are exposed to hardship or rigors
of climate. For malarial, rheumatic or
kidney trouble, nervousness, dyspepsia,
liver complaint and constipation It Is emf
nently efficacious, and commended by the
medical fraternity far and near.
