NaIua of Mans Life.

The Supreme Courts have decided that the life of the average man is worth just what he is able to earn. A mans earnings depend to great extent upon his health, and it is always his. power to improve his condition. The stomach is the measure of health and strength. Every man may be bright, active and happy, if his digestion is. normal. If it is not, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will make it so. It puts the digestive organs in condition to properly digest and assimilate food. Try it for constipation, liver and kid ney troubles. It has cured stomach ailments for the past fifty years, and to-day there is nothing just ss good.
