We cannot come, but We can often stay our
progress thither. Disease, like everything else,
must have beginning. All chronic maladies
tend TO shorten life, and render it a species of
mactyrdom while they last. Malaria, kidney
complaint, chronic Indigestion, rheumatism
all have small beginnings, and may be stayed
at the outset with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
This excellent tonic and Alternative is adapted
alike to the prevention of disorders OF the sys-
TEN and to their removal, ana its early use can
not he too strongly advocated. To renew ap-
petite and insure tranquil rest. there is no suTer
