Sound Reasons for Approval.

There are several cogent reasons why the
medical profession recommend and the
public prefer Hostetter's Stomach Bitterss
above the ordinary cathartics. 1t does not,
drench and weaken the bowels, but assists;
rather than forces nature to act; it is.
botanic and safe; its action is never pre-
coded by an internal earthquake like that
produced by drastic purgative. For forty
five years past it has been household
remedy for liver, stomach and kidney
trouble.
