British Aristocrscy plnmca.

Many people attribute the recent reverses of the British to the degeneracy of the aris- tocracy. The life of luxury certainly does not produce vigor. lndigestible suppers, late hours, constant nerve strain and lack of ex- ercIse upset the stomach and weaken both physical and mental vitality. The blood that makes men heroes must come from active. healthy stomachs. Hostetter's Stomach Bit ters purifies the blood and strengthens the stomach. It cures constipation, indigestion, dyspepsia and biliousness.
