AMERICAN SECURITIES ABROAD.

The sales of American securities have
been. according to London adyices, very
large abroad Of late, and there appears
to be q tendency toward increase in the
sales. If this state of things holds. there
will be m increasing influx of British
gold into this market. This is good news
and demonstrates the faith abroad i'm
the stability of our credit. There is an
ether point of faith for which the people
not only of this but foreign countries
have good grounds for credence, and that
is. belief i'm the efficacy of H0stetter's
Stomach Bitters for inorganic maladies
which affect the stomach, liver, bowels,
kidneys and nerves. Dyspepsia, bilious
ness. constipation, rheumatism, and a
tendency to insomnia, are counteracted
and conquered by it. 1T rallies failing
appetite, hastens convaleseence, and diff
flIses n generous warmth and sensation
of physical comfort through the system.
