Birth of the "Greater" New York.

With the dawn of the new year the
Greater New York is ushered into the
world full grown giant. The prob
lem Of municipal government in this
country is to be put to the supremest
test on the grandest scale. Within its
limits is contained population equal
to that of thirteen of our sovereign
States at the last census, and as large
as that of the original thirteen States
when the union was organized. Pro-
visions for the life and health of this
vast multitude of all nations and chimes
is an unsolved enigma, but profiting by
the experienced of half century s sue
cess, thousands of sufferers in New
York and elsewhere can be wrested
from the grasp of that agonizing com
plant, rheumatism, by the, timely and
systematic use of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. which is. moreover, a proven
tive of malaria and kidney trouble, and
a sovereign curative of liver complaint,
constipation, dyspepsia, debility, sick
headache and nervousness. 1t is an ad.
mirable appetizer and promoter of sleep,
hastens convalescence, and countsracts
the infirmities fage.

Sick-poison is poison which makes
you sick. 1t comes from the stom-
ach. The stomach makes it out of
undigested food.
The blood gets it and taints the
whole body with it. That's the way
oft.
The way to be rid of it is to look
after your digestion.
If your food is all properly digested,
there will be none left in the stomach
to make sick poison out of.
If your stomach is too weak to see
to this properly by itself, help it
along with a few doses of Shaker Di-
gestive Cordial
That's the cure of it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is a de-
licious, healthful, tonic cordial, made
OF pure medicinal plants, herbs and
wine.
1t positively cures indigestion and
prevents the formation of sick poison.
At druggists. Trial bottles 10
